Tell us when you book
Mention the occasion when you book on our website or on WhatsApp — a birthday, an anniversary, a honeymoon — and we note it on your booking. On the night, let your waiter know as well, so the crew knows which table is celebrating.
The cake: bring your own or order on board
You are welcome to bring your own cake. Hand it to the crew when you board; they look after it and serve it at your table at no extra charge. If you would rather not carry a cake, ask your waiter on board: cakes come in several sizes, start from €20 and are paid on board.
How the birthday moment works
When the crew knows about your celebration and there is a cake — your own or one ordered on board — the birthday tables are usually celebrated together during the evening: birthday music plays, the waiters bring the cakes to each table and everyone joins in. Then the programme carries on. The exact moment depends on the flow of the evening.
The decorated table
For a birthday, an anniversary or a romantic evening, add the decorated table for +€15 per booking: candles and rose petals are set up on your table before you sit down. You can choose it in the booking form on our website or ask us on WhatsApp.
Honeymoons, anniversaries and groups
Honeymoons and anniversaries are celebrated in the same way. Coming with family or friends? Book everyone together and tell us you are one group, and we note that you want to sit together. For groups of 30 or more, write to us on WhatsApp and we will plan the evening with you.
