Two of my good friends where visiting from Wiltshire and we chose the Boathouse. Just to make sure, I called them to check it was fine to have my Therapy Assistance with us and I was told this was fine and I booked a table for 3 a 2 p.m. When we arrived we were asked to sit in side booths rather than the restaurant. It was 30 minutes before our orders were taken and whilst my friends food came out correctly, my order was incorrect. Because of the time it took to actually order and receive our food, I chose not to say anything. It's clearly a very popular place to eat, but we were put in a corner, almost out of the way, which is exactly what I'd hope we'd avoid with my Therapy Assistance dog and bearing in mind my friends needed to travel back to Wiltshire, the timings were too long. The young lady who served drinks was brilliant though and she served the best gin and tonic with appropriate fruits added but ensuring beforehand I had no fruit allergies. I doubt I'd go back again, but I'm glad it's thriving given the current economic climate!

Had to wait over an hour for the worst ever Ploughman’s lunch we’ve ever had…cold toasted bread, limp salad leaves and few pickles for over £11….we made a complaint but not one person apologised!

Food disappointing..Starters expensive and small portions, did not taste homemade. Pie was like a pukka pie, wilted salad served with curry, mash served with lamb was sweet. Good service.

The good, lovely meal the previous week and comfortable the previous two visits. The bad, turned up today and they altered their opening hours for the day, we checked online before driving 30 minutes only to be turned away at 2:45pm even though they advertise serving until 6pm and they were taking desserts out, terrible won’t use them again

This is a great restaurant located close to Rochester bridge on the bank of the River Medway. The menu has plenty of choice. I opted for the crab cake starter and the feather blade of beef main and my wife opted for the garlic mushroom starter with the belly pork for main. All of our food was cooked perfectly and was delicious. My beef was so moist and tender it just melted in the mouth, it was great. The belly pork was excellent too. The keylime pie for desert was really good, one of the best I've eaten out and my wife said the gypsy tart was great. The portions were of a generous size and the mains come with lashings of gravy served separately. The service was very good and the restaurant had a good feel about it. We will definitely pop in again. I might try the lamb shank meal next time because I saw one served to another diner and it looked fabulous. 😋

We went here for a family meal & to celebrate 2 birthdays . We practically had the back of the restaurant all to ourselves, which was quiet , relaxed . The food was great as was the service . I really wanted to try this new cocktail that is trending at the moment ( lemoncello spritz ) . It wasn’t on the drinks menu but the lady behind the bar who is called Chanelle offered to make it as she knew what I was talking about. She made my day in fact she made my birthday even more special it’s now my favourite new drink! Can’t wait to go back to the Boathouse , the food is good staff are amazing!

This was our first trip to the Boat House and after hearing good reviews we booked it for a birthday lunch. We were sat in the restaurant garden which is lovely with nice views. The staff were really helpful in bringing a high chair out for our baby. We ordered starters and main courses soon after arriving and our starters came out quickly (and were very nice). However, after waiting well over an hour after finishing out starters we were told our mains would be another 20 minutes. In total we were sat at our table for over 2 hours and still our mains were 20 minutes away. With a young child and having to get back to pick up another from school we couldn’t wait that long and had to cancel our mains. Whilst I understand the kitchen was busy we were never told there would be a delay with food and were told it was due to us ordering starters which I’m not sure I understand as we eat out regularly and don’t experience long delays between starters and mains. It is disappointing as we enjoyed our visit up until this point but this will put us off returning.

Sunday lunch with my dad in a perfect setting, lovely views , I can’t wait to go in summer and make better use of the garden , the staff are all so friendly and happy , the food was amazing and always for me the veg on a Sunday roast is my fav part , 7 different vegetables perfectly cooked and 3 meats , stuffing and Yorkshire pudding, total value for money and a well stocked bar . Can’t wait to return and see the staff again and enjoy some of their amazing stocked bar and try the normal Menu too

Very disappointed to be greeted with , we need the table back by 3pm, you are only allocated 90 minutes for dinner and then have to leave. We booked via the website and there was no mention of a time limit on the table. Carvery style service, but you are not allowed to go up, you have to wait until you are told you can approach the carvery.

Staff are nice and friendly and managed to squeeze us in which was nice as we had not made a reservation. Place seemed clean and tidy with a good view of the river. This is where it goes downhill. My partner and I had the carvery and I tried all 3 meats on offer. In my opinion the ham and turkey were both reconstituted joints totally lacking in flavour and had the consistency of thin cut slimy spam, the roast beef seemed to be the genuine product but was served with a thinness that has to be seen to be believed, the roast potatoes were not at all crispy, the other vegetables faired a bit better. The meal didn't start very hot and was cold in minutes. The price would have been very reasonable had the food been up to any standard whatsoever. This is the first time in my adult life that I have not left a tip ( although they do give you an opportunity to on the card machine as you have to cancel various requests to tip before you can pay) When asked at start of meal if everything was ok my partner said yes before I made a scene and I kept my mouth shut. Nice staff but shame about the quality of the food. I will not be going back.

Disappointed. Starters were really nice - we had garlic mushrooms and pakoras. But then we had The Boathoise Burger and it wasn't very nice at all - it was a very basic burger that you'd expect to get from a roadside van. We gave feedback, and they 'told the kitchen' but we didnt get any feedback from that. I asked for a jacket potato in place of chips and was charged £2 extra. I wouldn't go back.

unfortunately the surrounds walking towards the pub looks like a building site that's without dodging all the dogs mess on the paths which isn't the fault of the Boat House but something you need to be aware of, but has a dog friendly advert so its obvious where the the dog mess comes from. inside the pub it looks well presented until you need to use the toilets then you realise its in need of a total refurbishment. Moving on to the booked reservation, we had our meal then decided not to have a desert which back fired on us as we were told we had 20mins before we had to leave as the table was booked for someone else but there were empty tables throughout the pub.

The Roast dinner was huge and well worth £13.95 with very succulent meat plenty of vegetables and gravy. I couldn’t give 5 stars as the meal could have been hotter but generally we were very impressed and will recommend and return.

Visited the re-named Boat House today for Sunday Carvery. Absolutely top rate, food excellent and very attentive staff (huge thanks to Hollie) and lovely views over River Medway. Give it a go, recently refurbished and lovely patio terrace too.

Now called the Boat House, newly renovated and, so too, the Russian submarine, that sits in the Medway just off shore! Great views onto the Rochester Castle, Cathedral and bridge. An excellent, spacious, bright setting, with a sizeable beer garden and outdoor dining. Good for...

Set in a post apocalyptic former industrial area is the riverside premises. Don’t let the location put you off as soon this will be developed into expensive trendy apartments! The venue has undergone extensive renovation and is well spaced out for dining inside and out....

There are two Costa Coffees at Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre (one inside and one outside). This is a review of the one outside as it was the first one we saw after parking the car. It it a light, airy establishment with friendly, helpful staff. There is seating both inside and outside and the tables were cleared as soon as the customers had left. The usual Costa drinks and snacks were available and our coffee was up to the usual good Costa standard.

Wonderful interior and exterior, a must see. Didn't appreciate the continous foul language from what obviously was a local guy. Have bands play here, love to visit when they play as the 'stage' is in a interesting corner of the bar area.
