The Clipper dining experience

Great food. Easy company.

Dining aboard our tall ships is a delightfully relaxed affair. In our Dining Rooms, you will find no rigid schedules or pre-set seating—simply open your evening whenever you are ready and sit with whomever you choose, including our ship's officers who frequently join the tables. Our chefs prepare a varied international menu that subtly honours the regions we sail, bringing you a variety of satisfying, flavorful dishes made to be enjoyed alongside great conversation and a selection of fine wines.

A fresh start to the day

Begin with freshly baked pastries and fruit, or enjoy a hot breakfast with bacon, sausages and omelets prepared to order. Choose a light bite or settle in for a leisurely meal before the day’s adventures.

Lunch with plenty of choice

Help yourself to a buffet of seafood, salads and grilled favourites. On select itineraries, a beach barbecue offers another way to enjoy lunch ashore.

Dinner, shared your way

Enjoy a multicourse dinner with open seating and no assigned tables. Come during dining hours and choose whom you sit with, whether you’re catching up with familiar faces or meeting fellow guests. Our officers often join guests for dinner, adding to the friendly atmosphere.

Casual elegance

Evenings are relaxed, with no need for formal gowns or black tie. Dress for a comfortable dinner in the welcoming surroundings of the dining room, where good food and conversation round out the day.
