deborahjo Posted March 21, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I don't mind not having tablecloths except for elegant night anymore. The reason being my local Red Lobster has gone to only paper tablecloths. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tef43 Posted March 21, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 21, 2017 If I didn't want a tablecloth, I'd stay home and eat at Golden Corral. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted March 21, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I found the lack of table cloth to be a total non-issue. I probably wouldn't have even put thought into it or noticed had I not read it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizardhowson Posted March 21, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Really ? :eek: Still complaining over the tablecloth change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted March 21, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 21, 2017 At home we take the tablecloth off the kitchen table to eat. Only eat on a tablecloth when we have the folding tables out. Usually plastic to make cleanup easier. Have no issue on any ship using/not using tablecloths when they have pretty tabletops. Regular catering tables are ugly.

meatloafsfan Posted March 21, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Really? Cause my local Red Lobster has never used tablecloths..... I guess you frequent one on the fancy side of town. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hftmrock Posted March 21, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 21, 2017 If I didn't want a tablecloth, I'd stay home and eat at Golden Corral. :mad: or you can eat at Masa in NYC which is probably the most expensive restaurant in the country... maybe they are skimping on the tablecloths too on the bright side, they don't allow tipping (but at about $500 per person ... I guess they build it in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilled2012 Posted March 21, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 21, 2017 The vast majority of nice restaurants that I've been to (at around $100/pp or more) do not have tacky white tablecloths. I am dumbstruck as to why is it that people complain about the lack of something so passé as tablecloths. To each their own I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhook Posted March 21, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 21, 2017 What is the big deal with the table cloth we rarely even eat at our table at home. You all that have to have the tablecloth must also be the same people that complain about the pool chairs Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teknoge3k Posted March 21, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I have come to the conclusion there is a conspiracy here on CC. There is a competition to see if we can have as many tablecloth threads as we do AARP/Verizon gift card threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking....there may be a decrease in the number of horseback riding excursions with all of these dead horses.

martinchem Posted March 21, 2017 #23 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I kinda like the tablecloths, that said on the Breeze they like to put bottles of wine on the tables. On rocky evenings they disappear. On a couple occasions you can watch wine and water slide across the tables when the ship is vibrating leaving a port. I caught my bottle as it slid off telling my waiter it now belongs to me because it would have broke had it hit the floor, we laughed. The next night, there was our waiter picking up glass and dabbing the floor as a bottle slid off a table near ours just as we were approaching for dinner.

Retired_to_Cruise Posted March 21, 2017 #24 Share Posted March 21, 2017 What is funny to me now is that all of the places that I have been to lately that have nice white tablecloths on their tables cover the tops of the tables with white paper while they are setting the tables. Then, after the diners have finished they take off the paper and put clean paper on them and then set them for the next guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinisthebest Posted March 21, 2017 #25 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Really ? :eek:Still complaining over the tablecloth change. Seriously! Literally years later. Which means, some complaints won't ever rest. Even if it's been said by the company numerous times that the new setting is here to stay. Good grief.
