Mens dress requirement dining Bermuda???

Is it true that men must wear a jacket when dining in Bermuda? Is the dining that formal?? We are thinking of booking, but if it's that fomal, my husband will not want to go! Please advise!
Thanks all!

Bermuda use to be tie and jacket, now its much more in tune to the real world.
Dining is not formal. Only a few spots require jackets-they have relaxed the tie, for sure at Waterloo House, and other more formal spots, not sure if The Fourways Inn requires a tie. Many fine spots no jacket-Lobster Pot, Frescos, Tusacany, Hog Penny, Portofino, Paw Paws, The County squire, White Horse Tavern, lots lots more. Relax, have fun and enjoy! Its a wonderful island!

ocenaolympia-
It all depends on WHERE you are staying...

A lot of the hotel dining rooms still require COAT and tie...but hubs can add bermuda shorts to that- as that is the official bermuda outfit....

It is much more formal than the caribbean and well worth going to Bermuda...

Ask your travel agent what the dress requirements are....

Agree with all of the above. If you plan on eating in Hamilon it is VERY casual ... even wearing running shoes was OK. Of course there are some "nice" places where you would want to dress up a bit. We ate at the Picked Onion, Portofinos, The Lobster Pot, Tuscany and some sushi place.
