Captain's dining room

The captain's dining room or captain's mess is a private dining area on some Federation Starfleet starships that allow the vessel's commanding officer to dine in private or entertain guests. It was serviced by either a kitchen, galley or by replicators.

In mid-2374, Captain Jonathan Masters used his private mess and its kitchen on the USS to prepare the meals for his date with Maxine Benton. However, they did not eat in the mess instead Masters took the food back to his quarters where they were going to have dinner.
