Bartender (black tee blue print on back) rude as hell. Very strange interaction… didn’t look at us or even acknowledge our order… actually had to ask him whilst he was pouring a drink if he heard us. He then turned passive aggressive and over the top whilst I was paying. Absolutely insane behaviour. Changed our order immediately from drinks and food to just a small drink, so we could leave asap, who wants to pay money for drinks and food in 2024 to be treat like that? Been a customer since 2018, a very friendly place usually.

Wasn't great.. food was a let down just bland. Pub was ok but smelt like a toilet was close by... and it was.. toilets could do with a clean.

Hands down the best Guinness I've ever had! This pub knows how to pour a perfect pint – smooth, rich, and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it the ideal spot to relax with friends or enjoy a quiet drink. If you're a Guinness lover, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Love going here from time to time, great spot of character and liveliness next to the canal and just a stones throw from Leeds Station South Entrance. Had some lovely pizza and good selection of beers, at very reasonable prices. Nice outside area and patio heaters for when it gets a bit chilly on an evening.

Come here once a month for Leeds Games Toast (game developer meetup). Always a decent range of beers on. Some are a bit pricey but it's Leeds, and the craft stuff usually is a couple of quid more. Haven't eaten here but have seen plenty of other people eat, and it's nice to be able to see the kitchen staff cooking upstairs. Looks nice, will have to try something one of these days.

The atmosphere was okay. Food was average. I had a vegan burger (vegan victories burger) with fries. I didn't like the taste ( had something like a burnt smell) and the fries were too oily. I used their toilet and it was pretty old and not properly cleaned. The urinal was placed in a corner on each side. Two people can't go at the same time. Also I had a stomach ache that night. Overall it was okay for me.

My 2nd time going here. First time I went for a lunch with some work mates. Had the meat board which was very tasty and filling. 2nd time was for an after work dinner and drinks. Very friendly staff; especially the guys behind the outside bar. Had the Lam burger which was very tasty, but small on the fries portion hahaha. No complaints though. All in all, great evening by the Loch.

Got the lunch time sandwich deal for the falafel as I'm veggie. Not sure what I was expecting but it was pretty poor and took half an hour to come. Wouldn't recommend. It cost £10 with small chips and drink so it's cheap but a waste of calories. The pizzas and burgers looked good. Love the boathouse for sunny drinks though

Food was great. But my god the service was dreadful, the waiter (who looked like Billy from stranger things) couldn’t find my table, I saw him wondering around with my pizza so I went up to him and asked if he was mine, he was so incredibly passive aggressive and patronising he just went “next time don’t move table darling” I couldn’t believe it, I told him I hadn’t move table, but he insisted must have given the wrong table number which I didn’t because turned out the bloody table had the plaque with number 74 and it also had written 74 on it and next to it had 75 written too! So it was simply a misunderstand and he could have handled that better!!!

Lovely venue, unfriendly and rude service. Food is pretty good, the pizza's are actually very tasty indeed. Bar staff are a little slow and inefficient but very pleasant. However the people serving food were just miserable and down right rude. Snide comments, no smiles, slammed the food down on the table anywhere, not in front of the person whose food it was. When asked if there were any more utensils and napkins we were met with a shrug and a "you'll just have to find some yourself". It was a busy night (quiz night) and we were a big party, but I would expect far better service, or at least polite staff. Contacted by management subsequently to enquire about our experience.

Order the pizzas, they're nice. The rest of the menu is a bit naff. The burger was dry, woefully under seasoned and came with a genetic relish from a jar, the kind you get in a rustlers burger. The steak sandwich has roasted carrots in it to pad it out because there was so little steak in it. Oh and I paid £7.95 for 6 little pigs in blankets on a bed of undressed dry rocket. Very 2007. Boooo Only given 4 stars because the pizzas are great, I just didn't order one this time because I'm a DINGBAT

Arrived at this lovely place, very quaint. Ordered our food, good choices on the menu Sadly we waited for an over an hour for our food, people were getting their food who ordered after us. We ask one of the male members of staff if they could ask where our food was, after waiting 45 mins, sadly the staff member didn’t come back to advise why the delay. We then had to find the member of staff, who said it’s on its way and the manager will refund your meal, that our meals were in their way. Having waited another 10mins for any action, another staff member offered me a refund but not my other 2 friends, we had to explain that they were due a refund also. Still no food. All refunds were completed and finally food arrived, my fish sandwich was lovely and hot and the others food was cold. The manager apologised in brief sorry for the delay, didn’t bother to engage with us or offer an explanation, which we found to be very rude & disappointing Overall totally disappointed

Met here with some friends and booked in advance, told the staff we had pushchairs and we could be accommodated. Where we were seated there wasn't room for pushchairs and it was down some stairs so made it awkward for the group. Ordered food and it didn't come as the staff thought we were on a different table and eventually were told the food would be reheated before correcting his words and meant remade. I'm skeptical whether the food was remade because my partner felt ill in the evening after having the burger - if it wasn't a freshly made one and in fact reheated, you've caused a health and safety violation. Also chips were far too salty and pizza was burnt. Terrible experience, won't be returning. Would be zero if I could.

Have visited waterlane boathouse on my dinner today. Ordered a burger and fries. The food took 50 minutes to come so I had to get it in a takeaway container to eat back at work. The staff did not advise there would be a wait for food or communicate any issues. We had to chase the food on several occasions. No refund was offered. The burger and fries were not worth the wait, it was cold and lacked any real flavour. I normally enjoy coming to boathouse but have been left very dissatisfied after this visit.

Water Lane is a great place to enjoy a pint and watch the world go by. Situated right on the Leeds-Liverpool canal, there's a lovely beer garden next to the water to relax with a drink or have some dinner. The food is decent (the truffle fries are particularly decadent) but the wait times for the food can be a bit long. Overall, the prices are decent and it's a great place for some low-key drinks with friends.

Lovely little restaurant,serving delicious food and drinks. My only gripe was that, although the food is delicious, there are other places in town that serve bigger portions for the same/less money. It was good food, but I left feeling a little hungry!

Turned up only to find the car full because they are charging to park there to cash in on the football crowd. So as a paying customer who is staying here was told to come back in hour when the football has finshed. I had to pay £7 to park here on top of the room cost so we won't we coming back again.
