Urgent advice please re Yachtsman's Steakhouse

[iluvtot]

Hi,
I am just sorting the last of the packing as we leave very early tomorrow
I have just realised I don't know if there is a dress code for the Yachtsman Steakhouse, and we have an ADR for DH's birthday!
I have looked online, but can't find anything, so please does anyone know? Do I have to take trousers' for DH and DS, or will smart shorts suffice, and do they need a shirt or will a smart Polo shirt be OK?
Many thanks,

Jules x

Smart shorts will be fine and so will a smart polo. TBH we found that the dress policy is quite lax and so long as nothing is ripped/ torn/ dirty or in swimwear pretty much anything goes, but I always enjoy dressing up for a few meals

You'll be fine.
We ate at Artist Point on our last night which also has dress code guidelines but we only had some really casual clothes left - no worries.
Except for V&A, the dress codes really are just guidelines

Tinks and Luke, Thankyou both!

At the risk of revealing myself as a fashion desperado, I wore combat shorts, a short sleeved shirt and boat shoes - I didn't feel under-dressed or anything...

we were there 2 nights ago, norman wore shorts and a short sleeved shirt. We had a waiter called tom and for the first time i halved the tip as the service was so slow, we passed on dessert as we just wanted to leave after just short of 2 hours for 1 course. food was good but just mentioned in case you get him, then you can jig him along a little

Have a great holiday! We LOVE Yachtsman Steakhouse... The Sundae is amazing as is the trio of chocolate. (I must have a sweet tooth tonight!)
Enjoy

Have a nice trip, I'm tempted by the Yachtsman for August/September trip.
