Gongoozlers Restaurant in Daventry

This was our first time here. A really lovely spot with extremely friendly staff. We had the small fry, sausage baguette and tea and all was very tasty. Great to visit somewhere a bit different. We will definitely return.

The finest fry up in the Midlands, the full English is great and the bacon baguettes wonderful. The use proper bacon, not the caterers rubbish.

Great bacon and sausage butties. Lovely fresh brown bread, great quality meat and the sauté potatoes finished off a great breakfast treat. Friendly and helpful staff. Thank you 😃

Delicious sausage sandwich served by friendly staff in a beautiful canalside setting, a lovely setting, even on a windy day in January

Visiting the Gongoozlers Rest to sit down with old friend for a hot cup of coffee and a bacon sandwich, after travelling more than 20 miles only to find, no indoor seating available, only wet, damp seating outside! This is not what I envisaged meeting up with an old friend after a long time. There was no indication on their website that indoor seating was not available. Highly disappointed.

Lovely stop for lunch. By the canal, picnic tables and chairs. Friendly staff. Had really nice bloomer bread toasties with potato slices. Fresh out of the oven bread and butter pudding with clotted cream. Wow yum. Definitely recommend and a nice little walk around the marina.

Fantastic experience and food. Friendly and enthusiastic staff, it was worth the 40 mile drive to go there. 3rd time we’ve been and does not disappoint. Food extremely well priced, not like some places that become well known and then increase prices exponentially, with big and tasty servings. Looking forward to going again soon.

I love this place, great food and a relaxing environment. We saw a Robin and listened to the relaxing sounds of birdsong

Over ten minutes for two cups of coffee, and the lady in charge unfortunately has no manners. Definitely giving this one a miss next time.

We were on a canal boat holiday and this place was mentioned in our guide book. We moored nearby and called in for breakfast. It's a very cute little barge with seats inside the boat and outside too. The ladies serving and cooking the food were lovely, the portions were very large, and the food extremely tasty. We didn't any lunch that day. We took away 2 portions of homemade lemon cake to eat later on our boat. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Visited for a Father's Day breakfast (lunch by the time food was served!) It is somewhat understandable the staff underprepared for an influx of passers-by on Father's day, but should have articulated any delays to customers. Frustrating to see take-away, sandwich-only customers served the very items that should have been used for our 'sit-down' breakfasts order a long time before the 'walk-up' customers arrived. Commercially I understand they would likely lose the sale if they told a customer asking for a sausage sandwich they would have to wait 30 mins for same, but that is not the fault of customers who have been sat for 45 minutes waiting for what they ordered. A bit of advice would be - understand your capacity and manage orders accordingly. Lady cooking was very abrupt - shouting for the far end of the boat at customers surprised by the unwarned delay. Offered a refund as leaving, but declined as I hadn't asked for one and the food was good. People skills need refreshing. Don't take cash from sit-down customers, and then leave them waiting whilst you serve take-aways.

lovely bacon sandwich ,the coffee was also very good , delightfull outside space to sit .after a good walk round the canal area it was just what we needed

Had 3 afternoon tea boxes, to takeaway. Absolutely delicious. Lovely fresh scones, cream & jam. Nice selection of home made cakes. Beautiful presentation. Thank you.

This is a great little cafe! Great toasties for lunch, Sat outside in their sunny garden, enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Littlebindependent places like this deserve our support and I'll definitely be going back!

Stopped here to get water for our boat and saw this very cute boat cafe. Hubby is a sucker for scones so we promptly bought two and a flapjack to eat later . The scones were I think £1.70 each which is a lot for a takeaway scone but that would have been fine if they’d been freshly made which they clearly were not as they were stale. My flapjack was changed to a caramel flapjack which I didn’t see til took it out of the bag much later. It wasn’t home made and had nuts all over it so I can’t eat it!

Stopped off for some lunch while walking along the canal. Lovely food at decent prices. Kids sausage baguettes were so big they couldn’t finish them all.

Had read about Gongoozler's when looking at the route for our 1st canal trip. So it was a sunday morning must, excellent food and friendly staff. Would recommend to anyone in the area. Though be warned it was busy, so expect a wait, but this wasn't a problem given the area.

The signs promised home made cakes, and the wooden blocks on the table said which cakes they still had left. You can’t see much as the window is too small to display a lot, though I impulse bought some sausage rolls I could see because they looked so nice. There was no mention that several of the options were actually individually plastic wrapped, shop bought items. Unfortunately I only opened the bag they had been placed in before purchase when we had travelled 10 miles down the canal - and discovered that some of the home made treats I bought to share were nothing of the sort. The sausage rolls turned out to be inedible because the puff pastry tasted as if it had been made from out of date lard - with a horribly stale greasy texture. So they were thrown away after just one bite into each. The pieces of ‘real’ cake were nice - but had the person serving told me the rest were shop bought I would have changed the selection completely, as I don’t buy food wrapped in plastic and stuffed with preservatives to increase its shelf life. Everything I saw other people getting (bacon etc.) looked good though, so I think my message has to be - don’t rely on being told which cake is not home made before buying, and eat all purchases nearby in case of problems.

A lovely little rest stop. We stopped by on a walk for a breakfast sandwich. Friendly service and nice food. A lovely little spot.

Visited while on a canal boat holiday and had cafetière coffee and bacon sandwiches. The coffee was superb and the bacon was good quality, proper bacon not watery rubbish. The bread was lovely and thickly sliced and was enough for a hearty appetite. The staff couldn’t have been better. Can’t fault them

This wonderful cafe'-boat serves home made food in significant portions, to go or to be savoured in a sunny garden by the canal in Braunston. The owners are friendly and will advice on the best specials of the day, and they also sell tasty home-made cakes!An unmissable stop on any narrowboat holiday on the Oxofrd canal.

Fabulous food and service with a smile. Ordered an afternoon tea and a savoury treat box. Loads of food for 4 and all tasted very fresh and obviously home made. Great value for money and a lovely setting to sit and enjoy. Will definitely be returning and recommending to friends. To be highly recommended

I don’t know when I visited but it was ages ago in 2020 in the summer so I just said July. Had a takeaway. Kids had a milkshake so did I. Another one is when I visited when it was around closing time. They didn’t hesitate and served me a latte. I sat out in the garden area and read a news paper.

We arranged a collection of a scone treat box during our canal boat day out on Friday, 25/9 and it was definately a treat!The scones were freshly baked (still warm) and the box included 4 large scones (2 cheese/2 plain) plus generous portions of butter, jam and cream. The box was well packaged and presented beautifully, tied with a lovely blue ribbon.These were the best scones we have ever had (and we have tried many...!) Both the cheese and plain jam and cream scones were amazing! The quality of the jam (raspberry) was also amazing too, and by far the best jam we have tasted!The scone treat box made our day even more special and we would thoroughly recommend! Great value for money and we can't wait to visit again!

Called in here for hot bacon and sausage butties while travelling to Oxford on our boat and ate in their outside garden. All delicious, freshly made and individually wrapped so you can take it away if you like.

Was very happy to find that Gongoozlers was still operating albeit with only a takeaway service at the moment. That's not a problem for us as we always take our dog so have to sit in the adjacent garden which has some benches. Everybody was social distancing and wipes and sanitiser were on hand. The food, sausage sarnie with scallops for me and bacon and cheese baguette with those tasty scallops for my wife, was excellent and so tasty. The two young members of staff that I saw were very helpful and provided a good service. Finished off our visit with a walk along the canal. Great way to spend some time.

We ordered 3 treat boxes for my Dad's Father's Day present. They were delivered on time and were filled with the most amazing savoury and sweet treats. We ordered 1 x savoury, 1 x treat and 1 x afternoon tea. Each box was full of gorgeousness! Amazing sausage rolls and black pudding scotch eggs in the savoury box and amazing scones and cakes in the afternoon tea and treat boxes.Amazing presentation and taste.Well done Avril!

Had a fantastic bacon and mushroom baguette and tea x 2 for very little. Lovely staff too And you can watch the water and boats go by while you eat. Definitely recommend

We regularly visit this floating cafe. Sometimes we eat on board and sometimes we take sandwiches away. This time was a takeaway. Yum! Bacon and egg sandwich with scalloped potatoes. Can’t be beaten. You have to visit.

We visited here before returning home after a narrow boat holiday on 1/11/19. We had four lovely breakfasts including a little vegetarian bits and bobs one for our 8 year old! Nothing was too much trouble for the ladies who work here. They offered a fun treasure type hunt where you fill in answers to questions about the village whilst taking a walk. It was 50p for our daughter to take part. The walk was lovely, we learnt loads and saw what a beautiful area it was and what lovely history it offered. Afterwards she received a goody bag with pencils, sweets and a postcard... I’m sure it’s value was far more than what we paid for the actual treasure hunt but as it was out of season I suppose it was offered as a kind gesture rather than a standard holiday activity. We had had a fantastic holiday and visiting here for breakfast before our walk and return home, it made it the perfect end to the week.The narrow boat seats people two per table. It has narrow steps to navigate onto the boat and may not be overly accessible to anybody with physical disabilities but there’s plenty of outside seating on a grassy area by the canal. It was a wet day when we visited and we had our dog, we sat outside and were given bags to cover any wet seats with. Despite us choosing to sit quite far away from the boat on the grass, the lady serving us was happy to be coming and going to make sure we had everything. We have booked another narrow boat holiday for Easter and so will definitely be coming here again then.

had moored just down the canal, so this place was a no brainer - run by a couple of ladies, good food, friendly service, being excellent value for money. be wary, it is small, and can fill quickly, however is worth it

Went to the marina because I heard of his barge that does a mean breakfast & other food. Glad we did , it was awesome. There are about 8 tables on the barge seating 2 at a table, so it’s not a massive place , it’s just unusually and great. The full breakfasts was great , my mum has a bacon & sausage sandwich ( see photo) she couldn’t eat it all. There are tables outside if it’s very busy. Great service and great staff

We went on recomendation and was not disappointed we both had Full english it was served very quickly and was delicious the latte was also brill and even though we were up to go on our narrowboat it still was very woth visiting highly recomend I must not forget the staff very polite and helpfull

We stopped at this cafe for a late breakfast. Food was freshly prepared and very tasty. Staff were helpful and very friendly. Lovely place to watch the canals boats motor past.

Always visit when we are passing through and usually have breakfast before we leave as on this occasion. It’s amazing how they turn out such delicious food in such a small area. Fantastic big breakfast for my husband and vege breakfast for me. A good hot mug of tea and extra thick bloomer toast. Set up for the day. Brilliant. See you next time.

We stopped by for some take away sandwiches. They were busy and it was quite a long wait but we sat on the bench enjoying watching the boats pass. Tasty and well cooked. Prices are fair no doubt we shall stop by again.

A friend and I are walking the Grand Union canal so came upon this boat cafe quite by chance. It was very good. Lovely and cosy in December, lovely food and plenty of it

went here for the first time today and must say it was very nice it is only small but was full and people waiting to come in if you like to eat somewhere different please give it a try

Where do I start! Me and the wife decided on a early valentines walk along the canal. We have heard village roumours of a cafe actually on river boat or barge, but never came across it during our long dog walks and just assumed it was some sort of urban legend or just daventry old women gossip.....but during a walk on the canals around braunston with the sun shining we turned the corner and found this little shinning gem on the riverways crown.We was invited in with the warmest greeting and beautiful smiles and the mouth watering smells of fresh baking mixed with the aroma of the frying of the best pork bangers iv tasted for years.Iv never been on a barge before but what a delight it’s small but quite roomy inside, immaculately clean and the views are breathtaking especially in the amazing spring Sunshine (there’s nothing better than having a great cup of coffee with a family of ducks waddling by).The chef was creating breakfast delights and the food tastes as good as it smells (I should know being a award winning chef keep up the great work) the locals mixed with boat owners first timers mixed with dog walkers with smiles and laughter and I noticed orders for the homemade bread and butter and clotted cream being asked for by every second customer ( I know what I’m trying next ).The lady who took my order was one of the nicest lady’s i have ever met full of life with the warmest smile and the greatest of compliments for every paying customer she graced the serving floor of the rocking boat like she was on rollerscates attached to a cloud with the finesse of a ballerina this must be a proper learn of the job skill top marks for that.In a nut shell if you come across this place you really need to give this place a try actually if you read this review find the address and make a special visit. It has it all, the quirkiness, the cuteness, great people, great setting lovely laughs and great homecooked breakfast and food and cakes trust me it’s a lovely experience and the tomato to bacon ratio is spot on.Five stars and great stuff from gongoozlers breathtaking boat cafe.See you again PAUL and JEN

We had a large well filled and delicious bacon, egg and mushroom baguette and a bloomer sandwich with two eggs. Both came with tasty potato scallops. The food is well priced, the tea and coffee seem a little pricey. The service is so, so friendly and the canal boat setting is very cozy and spotlessly clean. Well worth a visit! Access for people with limited mobility could be tricky.

Whilst on a Narrow Boat trip, we stopped for a midday breakfast at Gongoozlers Rest Cafe. Really good decision. Service and food were excellent. Food was quick to arrive and piping hot. Would recommend and go again

We visited Gongoozler's Rest Cafe on a rainy November afternoon, and it turned out to be a really special treat. I had a cheese & onion toastie, and my partner had mushroom soup with a cheese scone. We both felt that the food was amazing, for me it was the best toastie I've ever had, and my partner said the same about her cheese scone. It was warm and cozy inside while we watched narrow boats glide past on the canal through the rain drops on the window. The people running the cafe offered polite and friendly service.Tip: If the door is shut but you can see people inside, don't be afraid to knock! They shut it to keep the rain out, and they'll let you in.

A converted narrowboat serving really great food in a fantastic atmosphere. The breakfast is a must have. Lovely homemade things as well. Fabulous place.

Lovely atmosphere, cooked breakfast, maybe a little minimalistic, wish i had a little more option, but tasted lovely, tea was excellent too. Will try again .

This is a delightful cafe!! The setting is charming.Avril and the ladies who assist her, Mary and another lady make one feel so welcome and offer excellent service.The servings are extremely generous and delicious!!My family were visiting there for 42 wedding anniversary and Avril and the ladies went over and above to make it a very special celebration....such kindness!!!Thank you so much!!I will certainly recommend Gongoozlers as a must!!

We called in for lunch, but chose to sit outside with our friends dog. The seating area was adequate and the selection of food pretty good. This is a great place for lunch and it is a little different which adds to the appeal. The food is all cooked from scratch so be prepared for it not to arrive instantly. A lovely location.

Great English Breakfast ! Service was very good ! Breakfast on narrowboat just outside the Braunston Marina. The town is quaint and so it this place !

Excellent food and quirky venue in a very pretty location on the canal. Only 10 covers inside but more room in the adjacent garden, ideal for dog walkers. Food all cooked fresh and attention to detail excellent. Lovely grub!

I don't know if this place moves at all but we had breakfast and lunch on board when it was moored on the Grand Union next to Braunston Marina. Full English breakfast was so good we went back for lunch on our return trip.Good value for money, good service and good food.Probably not much fun if the weather is bad.

Stopped here on a return boat trip to Gayton Marina. We had the most fantastic breakfast served by the loveliest of ladies in a converted narrow boat, what a wonderful experience. Thank you ladies we will be back.

As a boater, I might be forgiven for being biased, but this proved to be a very pleasant way to spend an hour. We dropped in here for lunch yesterday. I had the bacon and melted cheese baguette and my wife a bacon toasty. Nicely cooked and a lovely atmosphere. They also sell a range of 2nd hand books in aid of charity. Highly recommended.

The boys have been keen to return to have another cooked late breakfast. Still busy and still very good. Food very reasonably priced considering where you are eating and an interesting experience sitting in the boat watching the narrow boats go by very close. Small but adequate, some outside seating. Staff very helpful and friendly. £26 for food and drink. The boys had several glasses of squash.

Took my wife and her parents to this cafe on a boat and it was really lovely, the staff were brilliant, the boat was small but very nice and traditional, the food was great and overall a great experience.

Excellent breakfast a ta reasonbl price . Get there early as limited space and very popular with canal boaters

On a canal boat holiday and just fancied the morning fry up without any washing up as a change ! Nice food, great location one of the cafes that's worth going out of your way to visit .

A quirky narrow boat converted into a small cafe. Limited menu but OH so good. A small ladder assists your climb into the cafe. Try the toasted sandwich, believe me you WILL go back

Went for breakfast here after reading tbe reviews. Was not disappointed as it was one of the best breakfasts we have ever had. It was a sunny day so we ate it in the garden watching the barges go by. Enjoyed it so much we returned the next day at lunch time for extremely tasty filled baguettes served with salad or potato scallops. All at reasonable prices.

Having found that the Admiral Nelson pub doesn't serve food on a Monday - why not? - we trudged along the towpath to Braunston where we came across this little jewel. The weather allowed for lunch outside in the very pleasant garden where we were served by a couple of lovely cheerful ladies. The food is cafe food but it is cooked and served with care. The sausage sandwiches were certainly the best I have tasted this walking season. This is clearly a popular venue in high season and we hit it about right on a sunny Monday lunchtime. This is one of the best canal side cafe venues I have come across. Avoid Mondays because I'm going back and I want a good table. Recommended.

On the canal side in Braunston. The place to stop for a bacon butty. Other food choices are available.

We had the large Gongoozler breakfast's which are cooked fresh and hot. Service / staff excellent. Location and experience lovely.

On a cold day who could resist entering this enticing narrow boat to sample hot bacon rolls and big mugs of steaming coffee! A quirky, welcoming cafe on the canal offering a small but tempting menu of freshly cooked food and delicious looking home made cakes. The two ladies on board were very friendly and helpful, the service beyond reproach. We are certainly going to find our way here again when visiting this beautiful area.

Just a few tables on board, and a necessarily restricted menu due to the small size of the kitchen but this floating cafe is a lovely place to have a lunch when visiting the canal area and marina. Lovely staff, tasty food with good size portions, freshly cooked and at a decent price. On a fine day, there is also an outside eating area with picnic tables.

Visited this converted canal barge on a cold March day. They serve great homemade cake and tasty coffee. Friendly staff greet you and make you feel welcome A MUST visit when walking the towpath at Braunston or visiting by barge

A popular place to eat breakfast, but just as good for lunch or cakes in the afternoon. Braunston Marina is such a nice spot to visit and this cafe is just the icing on the cake, literally at times! Boaters use this cafe as do local businesses. Enjoy!

We've called in many times for drinks (outside) but this was the first time inside.

The Gongoozler is moored by Braunston Marina, and serves a superb breakfast.

We popped in here for breakfast as we passed through Braunston heading south. The setting is unusual set as it is in a converted barge. The menu is extensive and ‘set’ but can be altered after discussion with the serving staff. I had the cooked breakfast (1xegg/sausage/bacon/tinned toms with beans and bread). More than enough and freshly prepared and cooked. My wife had poached egg on brown toast with bacon and tinned toms. All rather nice. They even provided tissues so we could wipe the steamed up windows so we could keep an eye on the dog who had to wait outside.

Came here for breakfast and was thoroughly impressed. We sat inside the boat and the cafe was spotless. Service was excellent and the owner and waitress very welcoming. The food was freshly cooked to order and was very tasty and they serve black pudding.

Good portion sized and delicious breakfast. Set on the canal with a lovely view. Feeling warm and toasted in the cabin even on a cold day. Great place to stop for coffee or tea after a walk.

We've called in several times on our towpath walk - sitting outside in the gardens with the dog. Excellent mugs of tea along with a choice of 3 or 4 cakes - excellent quality and great service

Visited the gongoozler for breakfast

This is great idea, a barge converted to a cafe on the water at Braunston. The staff work very hard and provide a vast menu in what must be difficult cooking conditions, but it all very good. Home made cakes and other food prepared on order are great.

Stopped for breakfast with family whilst travelling through on narrow boat. Very tasty and for vegies as well as meat eaters!

We continue to visit on a regular basis to enjoy the excellent selection of food available which is well cooked and always well presented on HOT plates. The staff always greet with a smile and a friendly welcome. not to be missed if visiting Braunston. Well worth the wait if busy. Marion and Dennis

Sat outside as we had a dog. Service was a little slow but good when it arrived. Lovely idea and fits well in it's surroundings

If your looking for a nice caf'e with a difference then Gongoozler's rest is the place.

Whilst the location of this establishment is good the service is atrocious and therefore I because of this our dining experience was not pleasant. I would recommend lunch here, which is shame as the food was reasonably good value for money.

The lady with the dyed reddish hair who served us severely lacked in the customer service element and was downright rude when initially taking our order for myself, daughter and son. We ordered cheese toasties then asked for tomato to be included, the response to us was curt? 'Do you want CHEESE or CHEESE AND TOMATO. After 30 minutes our order arrived and the sandwiches were not toasted. We pointed this out and an apology was not offered, or an offer to toast the sandwiches as initially requested. We did not mind ordinary sandwiches but an apology would have gone a long way. Reasonably good food but appalling service.

I have visited this floating café a few times, sometimes on foot and sometimes when passing on my cycle.

Well I have been to this little gem twice in 2 weeks . A lovely little boat on the canal that serves hot breakfasts from 9 am .

Visited for the first time last week to treat my better half to a birthday brekkie. It was a gorgeous day and so relaxing to climb aboard this lovely floating restaurant. I was disappointed to discover that the big Gongoozlers breakfast was not on offer during the summer months but we thoroughly enjoyed the large cooked breakfast anyway. Freshly cooked and piping hot. The boat got quite warm but I only discovered after eating that we could have sat in the garden adjacent to the boat, outside the Stop House building. Very relaxing and enjoyable experience. Would have appreciated more information on current services available but it was still a really great find!

This is a quirky, interesting and attractive café / restaurant located on a moored canal side narrow boat making it difficult to walk past without entering to try.

Having waited for a seat onboard for 20 minutes only to be told that they had no bacon or sausages there was no apology as to why they did not let me know earlier it's hardly a massive cafe.

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day and this fantastic boat restaurant is well worth taking the time to find out!

Once again The Gongoozlers Restaurant dining experience hits the spot, The food was excellent, freshly cooked and piping hot (always is) and the side order of scallop potatoes were delicious. My Wife and I try to visit once a month, highly recommended to all.

'Gongoozler'........a person interested in the activities of the canal.

Having finished our Narrow Boat holiday it is good to have a nice breakfast before our joirney home. This breakfast does not disappoint. Loads of it. Amazing that they can squeeze so many people into this narrow boat, but it somehow does not feel crowded and the staff are lovely. Sitting watching the boats go by. It is lovely and warm with a stove keeping you warm. Will definitely visit again!

We visited here late one rainy morning for breakfast. The cafe is a converted canal boat and as such there are not many tables inside. However, there is seating available outside for good weather, and if you can wait for a table inside it is worth it and it is a lovely setting, eating breakfast on the canal watching the ducks and swans go by. As we arrived late morning there was only a few people there so we were able to get a table straight away. There was a good selection available for breakfast and our orders were taken quickly. Our food and drinks came as quickly as you would expect from a small kitchen and the service was friendly. The food was good and the portion sizes decent. The price was average and the service from the ladies working was good. Definitely worth a visit if you want breakfast in a different setting.

If you want a breakfast with a difference then this is the place to go! With a beautiful setting on the canal and the friendly staff, it is also great value for money. I only live 10 minutes up the road and still love to visit when I can. If you don't want to sit in the barge then there is seating outdoors along side with plenty of room. All in all, very much worth a visit for an epic fry up and coffee.

Wife and I took the two boys aged 6 and 8 to this floating restaurant for brunch.One of them is in Gongoozlers house at school in Braunston so first hand knowledge needed.

Gongoozlers restaurant is a converted canal boat serving good quality breakfasts primarily . Enough room in the boat but there is an adjacent garden area with about 6 tables which is great dependant on the weather.

We went out for a walk along the towpath at Braunston, which is a few miles north of Daventry, when we came across this delightful narrowboat converted into a cafe. Great menu covering breakfast and lunch. Very welcoming and friendly staff and very comfortable seating inside with outside seating available in a garden just off the towpath. Opening hours are 9 to 2 pm daily. Absolutely super little cafe

The boat has just been refurbished and continues to serve excellent food and home made cakes. The food is cooked to order, served piping hot by friendly and helpful staff. In particular, the English breakfast is excellent as well as great omelettes. For an extra 50p you can buy a packet of food and feed the ducks.

What can be better than a traditional breakfast overlooking the canal? In a restricted environment the staff were cheerful and chatty, explaining food would take a little time as they were already cooking for ten others who had arrived shortly before us. The boat has just benefitted from a winter refit and whilst fairly cramped and basic, it provides a welcome place to rest and watch passing boats and ducks, as well as feed. The food is plentiful and well cooked, with a selection of home made cakes available for afternoon tea etc. and they are happy to provide takeaway drinks and food.

A unique situation being a restaurant on a narrow boat. The food is always excellent with super breakfasts all freshly cooked, great sausages, bacon and their signature fried potatoes.Tea or coffee in large mugs. It's great value too and a friendly atmosphere. You won't regret coming whatever time of day. superb

Good basic breakfast menu. The food was cooked to order and arrived at a positive nuclear temperature. So many cafes I go to the food arrives tepid because it's been put on a cold plate... not here. I found the staff to be very friendly, asking me where I was from etc. You're in a narrow boat on the canal and if your lucky, like I was, a swan will look in through the window at you! The cakes looked tempting... definitely will be going back.

I have been here a few times, and every time it is such a treat - my husband is gluten free and they made a fantastic fry up for him using bread he takes along, they made sure to use fresh oil for him. There is a cosy solid fuel stove (could be a hazard for toddlers). I can see it is a real fave with locals and dog-walkers a like.

Called for drinks and cakes today with family. One member of staff with longer hair friendly the other woman short hair was very stand off ish, almost felt like making my own drink or writing down our order for her.

Great food, super portions, and a unique setting by a busy marina a good stop off afer morning walk.

Our friends had asked if my husband and I would like to go for breakfast but didn't tell us where we would be going, but to our surprise we walk along the canal to find a barge that was the café where we was going to have our breaky. It was great how different it was lovely sitting on the canal watching the other barges going by and having a wonderful cooked breakfast. Staff very friendly we would highly recommend a visit to Gongoozlers.
