Default Do they do pub grub on dawn princess

I Have been reading they do "pub grub" on the Princess ships on sea days - but the posters are Americans - so I assume it is on the American Cruises. Sounds good - does it happen on the Aussie/NZ Pacific island cruises?

They have a grill which serves all kinds of stuff from chips, pies and pasties to BBQ seafood sometimes.

Thanks - seems the Americans get scotch eggs, fish and chips, bread and butter pudding (I am only picking bits out) in the Wheelhouse at lunch time - no extra charge? interesting alternative to the buffet and MDR, I thought (assuming it happens in Aussie Waters)

On Diamond Princess for the December Bangkok to Sydney cruise Pub lunches were served in the Savoy Dining Room, Ploughman's Lunch, Pork Pies, Fish and chips were some that I can remember. The Lunches were not available everyday and mainly on sea days.

Enjoyed the pub lunch on our Diamond Princess cruise Bangkok to Sydney and wondered if they would be available on the NZ cruises that Diamond does here every year and was pleased that they were. They were in the Savoy Restaurant on sea days. They don't do the pub lunch on Dawn Princess.

Thumbs up

But we have eaten bread & butter pudding, fish and chips from the buffet at times on the Dawn & Sun. OK not a pub atmosphere but that grub is definately served at times.
