Excellent in every way. The rooms have everything you need and are great value for money. The wifi needs sorting but it's not something you can't live without. Now the food and service. Absolutely 5 stars from us. From the lovely waiter and waitress to the owners and chef they all go out their way to ensure everything is perfect. The area has beautiful surroundings and they have a garden with an outdoor bar, they have thought of everything. The food is outstanding with reasonably priced mains. I do think some of the starters and deserts are on the high side but the quality is excellent. We have now been 3 times and each time everything has been perfect. Top tip. The Bulgarian Wine is lovely.

The food was tasty - lovely flavours - but the meat was dry and the roast potatoes had clearly been reheated and were very tough. The staff were all very welcoming.

Delicious Sunday lunch, great value and good quality food. Lovely ambience, we were lucky enough to sit outside in the sunshine. Absolutely lovely waitress, could not have been more polite, friendly and efficient. Sadly we didn’t get her name, but blonde hair and a lovely attitude! We will be back to enjoy a roast dinner again. Thank you!

Right by the canal, we stopped for a drink and to watch the boats while our granddaughter played in the outside play area. Very pleasant.

We actually had our wedding here at The Boat Inn and let me tell you, it was an absolutely fantastic day. Catalin and his staff ensured we had the best of times, the food was fantastic and the service even better. If you’re looking for a venue or just some grub and a pint this is the place for you! Not only is the food and the service fantastic I happen to know the owner Catalin personally and he is a top man who really cares for his staff and really takes care of everyone. If you want to support a local pub ran by a true family man and eat some fantastic food this is the one for you !

Sunday dinner with family was amazing at The Boat Inn; Great atmosphere , amazing staff , quick service, and lots of fun with the magician Afromagic what goes around the tables making your visit a mixture of holiday mood and quality time spent with kids and family Also we had a party organised after our daughter Christening , everything was done in a professional way from the decoration of the restaurant room to the quality of food service and to the staff positive attitude. Will come back 100%

We booked a table for 7 ppl for Sunday lunch to celebrate my hubby’s birthday. As always, the food is beautiful and served with perfect timing. The owners are lovely, very welcoming & friendly. We didn’t ask for anything special but they brought out a dessert for hubby with a candle to wish him happy birthday. That was a very nice gesture. Beautiful place, can’t wait for further visits.

Title: "Exceptional Dining Experience at The Boat in Hayton, Clarborough" Dear The Boat Team, My wife, Vix, and I had the immense pleasure of dining at your charming establishment for lunch, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of spectacular. The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the classic Fish, Chips, and Mushy Peas. The golden, crispy batter enveloping the fish was cooked to perfection, creating an exquisite contrast with the tender, white flesh inside. The portion of chips struck the perfect balance between satisfying and not being overwhelming, while the mushy peas were the ideal complement to the dish. Each bite was a feast for the senses that I thoroughly savored. Vix chose the Steak Sandwich on Ciabatta bread, and she was absolutely delighted with her selection. The steak was tender, flavourful, and cooked exactly to her liking. The Ciabatta bread added a unique and delicious twist to the traditional steak sandwich. She couldn't stop expressing her joy at how the dish not only met but exceeded her expectations. Beyond the exceptional food, what truly set our experience apart was the warm and friendly atmosphere you've cultivated at The Boat. The attentiveness and welcoming nature of your staff made us feel incredibly at home and added significantly to our dining experience. In summary, our lunch at The Boat was an exceptional experience that left a lasting impression on us. The combination of delicious cuisine, friendly staff, and the idyllic location in Hayton, Clarborough, makes it a must-visit destination. We can't wait to return and indulge in your culinary delights once more. Happy dining to future visitors! 🍽️✨ Warm regards, Vix and Coop

Moored our boat near The Boat Inn today. Often wondered what it was like in there. Now I know that it's really nice and dog friendly, with nice people running it. I now will return to eat there.

Fabulous first visit to the Boat. My husband and I came for dinner. This is not just your run of the mill acceptable pub group...it was in another league. There was just the right amount of choice on the menu and everything was absolutely mouth watering. We were both delighted with our choices and so, so glad we finally got round to calling. Service was Fabulous, very friendly and welcoming. Cannot wait for our next visit. Thank you so much.

Absolute gem which we are thrilled we found. Good easy parking, fabulous menu of truly home cooked foods. Wide drinks list Beautiful inside with level access and patio area all over looking the run way. Staff friendly and efficient, dog friendly outside although when wind is high ( like today ) the patio is closed for safety which is fully understandable. Will definitely return if we are in the area

Wow what can i say, this is the first time coming here as we were visiting my parents who have recently moved here so they treated us to a meal for my birthday. The food and service was by far a 10 out of 10. All freshly cooked food and decent portions for the price too. I had the Sticky Chicken for starters 🤤🤤and a Chicken, Ham and Leek Pie for main course which was well filled. I loved the deco and how comfortable the crushed velvet chairs were which made it even more comfy. The whole place was clean and inviting to everyone. All the staff we were in contact with with so bubbly and friendly, especially the owner? Who took our order and the lady who waited on us too. The only niggle for me was i was to hot but thats personal preference as im never cold and was sittinf by a radiator. Such a lovely pub its a shame its going to be closing ☹️
