October 14, 2026 — Virgin Voyages has updated the menus at two of its onboard restaurants. From October 16, 2026, its Beach Club at Bimini will serve a new Bahamian and Caribbean menu.
What’s changing
- The Wake (steakhouse): new brunch and dinner menus, available now and created with chef Brad Farmerie. Dishes include a Portobello Mushroom Benedict, pan-roasted salmon and caramelized sea scallops. Bacon-wrapped twice-baked potatoes are now served fleetwide, Oysters Rockefeller is an extra-cost “Treat Yourself” item, and voyages longer than seven nights get extra specials.
- The Dock: new Mediterranean-style small plates, also available now, such as red lentil dip, Turkish deviled eggs, pork souvlaki and beef kafta skewers.
- Beach Club at Bimini: chef Rashida Holmes has created a new menu with curry chicken roti, snapper patties, tamarind BBQ skewers and spicy fruit chow. It starts October 16, 2026.

What it means for airline travelers
