A group of around 40 of us (mostly 60+!) had a wonderful afternoon on the canal for about 2 hours. Lovely sandwiches and cream tea included. Bar with lager beer wines etc at very fair prices. Staff were lovely and very welcoming and friendly. Really enjoyed our visit.

We've just had the most delightful afternoon on the Judith Mary as a treat for my mum's 80th birthday. A lovely little pootle up the canal for a couple of hours and a delicious afternoon tea. All freshly made sandwiches and the most scrumptious scones. Suzi and her team were entertaining and nothing was too much trouble.A big thank you...such a shame they are retiring in December

Had a lovely, relaxing trip on the Judith Mary Canal boat today, from Whaley Bridge travelling along the High Peak Canal,which was very enjoyable.The Atmosphere aboard the boat was great, it was decorated out for Christmas, the staff were all very friendly and helpful, working very hard to make sure everyone was happy. We had a Christmas meal, which consisted of a Turkey batch, roast potatoes, pig in blanket and a stuffing ball, served with gravy and cranberry sauce, followed by a very tasty warm mince pie and fresh thick double cream.(included in price) You can have an alternative menu for dietary requirements arranged when booking. There is a well stocked bar on the barge, serving beers, lagers, cider,wines, and spirits, with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, mulled wine, and speciality coffees, all at reasonable prices. There are toilets on board, which are clean. The trip lasts roughly 2 hours, but to be honest, time went so quickly. hardly noticed . Trip turns around at some point during the cruise, so you end back up at Whaley Bridge.

I attended the afternoon cruise this afternoon with my wife, child and mum. None of us could fault the welcome, food, atmosphere or the service in any way at all. The boat was beautiful and we were quickly made to feel very welcomed by Suzy and the staff. The food, hot pot with crusty bread, was very tasty. A great selection of drinks to accompany and finished off by a lovely and decently sized portion of apple pie with cream to finish off a very well spent and relaxing two hours. My mum has already put her request in for a return trip at Christmas. Thank you Suzy and team. Dave, Sian and Harrison.

We haven't dined with Judith Mary but we arrived at Whaley Bridge by narrowboat and found nowhere to moor, so I rather cheekily moored on their wharf opposite. I called and left a message asking if they'd mind and offered to move if it was an inconvenience. I got a text minutes later from Suzy saying it was fine. The next morning I was chatting to (sorry, didn't catch your name) who was aboard waiting for the diesel supply boat. Lovely little business, very community focussed, and friendly. So why am I leaving a review for something I admit I haven't tried? Because they're a nice little business that should be supported. Whaley Bridge has has a tough time, and the Peak Forrest Canal will be in dire straits next year if it's a warm summer as the Toddbrook Reservoir is likely to be out of service for at least five years. Even if cruising trips are limited in the future, please show your support by booking with Judith Mary.

Really enjoyed myself yesterday on your lovely canal boat, despite the horrible weather. All the staff were so helpful and lovely, nothing was too much trouble for them. I wanted to take photos all the time so they removed the window so I didn't get raindrops on the glass. They kept bringing towels to put on window sill and table all the time. It was my choice and loved every minute of it, they kept asking me if I wanted the window putting back in, but I was fine. I had a wonderful time, the food was excellent, Hot pot and Apple Pie and cream. I certainly want to come back again, hopefully with sunshine next time instead of torrential rain. Thank you to everyone involved in the running of The Judith Mary .

Spend a couple of hours gliding along through lovely scenery while enjoying a meal or sandwiches and scones. Kelly and the lovely ladies who serve the excellent food demonstrate immense skill in delivering food and drinks safely along the narrow aisle. I went with a large party of friends and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience. A great trip for all the family.

Really lovely tearoom, the food was delicious. Lovely home made scones, tomato pesto and mozzarella panini was very tasty with delicious home made coleslaw. I had the Black Forrest hot chocolate which was one of the nicest hot chocolates I've ever tasted. Friendly staff, very clean. Would definitely recommend.
