I hosted my partners 30th here and it was such a great venue! The food was great and they catered for gluten free. Their in house DJ was really good and everyone has such a good time! They even went out of their way to go to the shops to buy a certain spirit that my mum drinks!! Thank you again! (We have also eaten here separately to the party as well and know the food is nice!)

I love the Boat House, I’ve been here quite a few times for quick bites, full meals and just a quiet drink - however on Thursday I stopped by with my friend after work to get food on our way out and was told by the woman outside putting the chairs away that they were closing as “no one showed up”…. 5pm… she went on to tell us they had already had 100 people during the day and weren’t going to stay open for 2 people… the funniest part was there was another couple there looking out across the river who had just been told the same thing… so that’s 4 people… sent away hungry. No wonder pubs are struggling if they are closing at 5pm and turning customers away hungry. My advice Don’t go here after 5pm as they are closed. Edit: The woman putting the chairs away said they had been closing at 5pm all week as no one had been showing up in the evenings - no mention of an ill chef… 🤷🏽‍♀️

Lovely weather so outside. Unfortunately batter on fish light and tasteless and fish only just cooked, chips ok but obviously from freezer along with kebabs. No atmosphere but was sitting outside as no appeal on entering. The staff was polite and helpful but overall very disappointed after such positive reviews, not a place I would return to.

Great location with plenty of outside space to enjoy the view. Went with a large group, which the venue was good for. Food was excellent if not a little expensive. Staff friendly and willing to help. Atmosphere would depend on who you were with. Service was a bit slow but acceptable, given the size of the group. Car parking would be an issue, especially when busy.

On arrival we eventually were seated on a table but we asked if we could sit by the window or outside as it was hot. We were told that we couldn't sit outside as they had a function booked. Fair enough. The window seat was also booked, apparently !! but in the time that we were there not one sat there. Also when we left the outside space was filled with people just having a drink. Food was ok but I don't think I will be going back.

We came in as a group of four and we were treated with the upmost respect as we entered, It was very busy already and only 12:30 on a Sunday We were shown to our table by Hollie who was the most gracious waitress and host to us throughout our meal even explaining that at 14:00 we had to leave our table as they had bigger bookings, this was fine as we didn’t think we would take 1.5 hours eating Unfortunately because it was busy our deserts were a little delayed but this was also not a problem as Hollie had told us there may be a slight delay, We received our deserts at 13:50 and had in the back of our minds that we had to leave the the table to for the other guests, But we were moved by the manager Chloe to the outside tables with an amazing view to relax after our meals and enjoy a few more drinks with our friends. With this I entered the bar again and spoke to a delightful young lady Janais who was very funny and kept the long queues entertained with her quick wit and humour she the served us and was very professional. We will be returning to this eatery if not for the food but because of how you are treated as a human being. 10 stars

Really beautiful inside and out, lovely cleans and bright inside. Outside has the most beautiful view of the river and so hidden away that I have only just came across this lovely place through a friend. enjoyed a glass of red. The staff are very friendly and guided me through the menu. I would like to see more for plant based/ vegans such as the mushrooms could very easily have the cheese sauce separate, so that it could be an option for vegans or non vegans. I had chips, veggie Indian style barji like things that were nice, olives and bread. My friend got the Sunday carvery and really enjoyed the options. The vegan pies where finished or I would of got the same. I'm still unsure about parking as I did see a few restrictions due to being near the station so would have to call up about that. There are a few designated spaces. Overall would definitely come back with a group of friends 😊

Went here for a carvery and it was really nice, the stuffing was very tasty. Also had the calamari for a starter which was good. Reason for 4 stars is the dessert fell short, I ordered churros, didn't really like the sauce and there was no filling to the churros they were just all crunchy, even my partner didn't like them and he's not one to complain. However, he did enjoy his own dessert (he had a key lime pie). All in all would go again but would pick a different dessert.

Ordered online. Was looking forward to the food but everything was either a little cold or room temperature. I’m sure everything would have been quite nice if warm, but temperature of the food ruined the meal. Seemed like there was quite a few orders on the delivers run, so may be worth having less next time. Wouldn’t order online again but would try coming to the restaurant to eat.

Had a lovely three course meal this evening. Starters of garlic mushrooms were so tasty. Carvery was plentiful and the Blonde Cheesecake was to die for. However aside from the food the standout feature of this restaurant is the staff. They all clearly take great pride in delivering great service and looking after the customers. Only negative of the evening was having to witness another table who were complaining about anything they could find to pick fault with and were incredibly rude especially to a young waitress. Clearly just after a free meal yet the staff still managed to remain polite and courteous despite being visibly shaken but it's good to know they are no longer welcome back as the staff here deserve so much better. One negative will not spoil a lovely evening and we will definitely return.

Decent pint of Blue Moon too, and friendly staff. Menu looked good too but there a private function on so kitchen closed to public. Was a bit quiet on the crowd too especiallyfor a Saturday night, maybe because of the function or the fact its just that tiny bit out the way.
