bring a mug to mdr?

[isladonna]

Can you take a drink cup, iike a travel type mug in the mdr?

 

[Joe817]

Sure, why not?

[sc4125]

Yes, I use a Tervis-type tumbler on every cruise.  When I order a drink, I always pour it into the tumbler to keep it could & not sweat on me.  I've taken it with me many times to the MDR.

Only if you are walking like you spell. 🤣

A frown never stopped me from doing anything.

nothing says "fine dining" like a 64 oz "bubba mug" on your table.  I'm guessing they'd allow one to bring any kind of mug into the steakhouse too.

I agree! Tacky. Tacky. Tacky. 

Just because someone can, does not mean they should.

We take a can of Dr. Pepper and a bottle of wine with us to dinner each night. I don't see why a mug would be frowned upon.

I would never classify any meal in Carnival's (or most any other line's) MDR as "fine dining".

Yes, my adult son mixed his drink in the cabin & brought it to dinner in his yeti.  My neighbor did that as well.  They do not care.  

[SDPadreFan]

Not something I would ever consider for the main dining room, or the specialty dining options. Just not classy in my opinion.

[Organized Chaos]

The MDR ceased to be "fine dining" a long time ago. Elegant nights align more with that description, but even those have changed a lot. I have never brought a travel mug of any kind to the MDR with me, but I'm not opposed to it. In fact, I'm highly considering doing it on our upcoming cruise because I drink lemonade and it'd probably be easier to bring my own rather than have the waiter bring me one, then need to be refilled. I don't let the sight of frivolous things such as travel mugs, hats, flip flops, etc. affect my meal. My food tastes the same no matter what others bring to the MDR. This country boy doesn't claim to be classy, so think what you will, I'm still going to enjoy my meal.

Did they stop serving alcohol in the MDR and I wasn't aware of it???

[coevan]

no, he just is referring to BYOB in the MDR

The tequila would be from a bottle bought on board that is in their cabin or that was smuggled on.

I have taken a can of soda into MDR, along with my Carnival tumbler.  I have never seen any negative actions from servers or fellow passengers.  I think the MDR is more like Applebees or Chili's.  On "cruise elegant" nights, it might be considered a little more upscale, but still not what I would consider true "fine dining."

Finally! Someone who shares my opinion. Thank you Banditwife.

Couldn't agree with you more, but then you have to expect the unusual.

 

To carry the nonsense a bit further

we might expect this sort of question in the Tasteless category:

"Can I bring my Tervis Tumbler to the MDR

while wearing slip-slops, and jeans under my bath-robe?" 

 

Can you picture it? Do you even want to?
