I decided to stop for lunch now that places are open for outside seating. The food was marvelous and it was nice to be out talking to people again. Will definitely be going back.

Excellent vegan tofu fish with vegan tatar sauce, chips could have been crispier but would still get again 💕

Loved it! It was my first time eating fish and chips EVER and I was elated. So yummy! I went back a few more times while I was in Bristol.

Absolutely outstanding customer services, everyone was super friendly, welcoming and happy. Really put a smile on our faces. Food was superb. Pork fell apart and the crackling was just insane. Crisp and delicious. The hake was so incredible, everything was phenomenally yummy. 100% recommended to anyone who is looking for a lovely evening meal, amazing atmosphere, great location, excellent food and customer service.

We ordered the 3 course meal. The appetizers were sad and lacked taste. The lamb main dish was amazing and the strawberry dessert was to die for! I'd visit this place again just to eat that strawberry dessert.

Many years since I've been here. This was the go-to place in the 1980's financial services heydays. I brought many a client, insurance agent and even the occasional mistress to the restaurant - or anyone I wanted to impress. Business breakfasts were de rigour in the day and starting the working day with a salubrious early meal, usually augured a successful day. Although they no longer do breakfasts, the lunches are even better than remembered. Now with my wife (those halcyon days long passed) she enjoyed a ham hock patè starters and mussels in white wine main - I opted for a sublime tomatoe & Greek yogurt starter and a spicey chicken main. All this washed down with a well chilled Domains De Ménard 2015. Superb. The interior of the boat, once a barge lugging timber up the Severn, has had an agreeable makeover since my last visit, it's more open now and the furniture is better. The service was convivial and attentive and behoves me not to leave it so long next time.

Fantastic food and a great location. The Glassboat is a must-visit for anyone in Bristol. We got one of the taxi boats that pitches up just outside so it's really easy and fun to get to. The Glassboat is literally on the water giving you amazing views. The food is fantastic with a focus on local produce. We went for the lobster and crab specials and they were too drawer. Very reasonable prices as well for you get. Couldn't recommended it more highly.

Such an adorable ambience, rich food and spot on service. We were passing by, recognised the restaurant and immediately decided to take our chances on a Saturday evening without a previous booking. The staff was absolutely lovely and accommodating! Our waiter was French and did really run an that extra mile to make sure we've got the best experience. Myself and my partner ordered the lobster deal and it was cooked to perfection! Also, their petit gateau (chocolate foundant) is to die for! Will certainly get back again next time we visit Bristol!

Delicious food, we had the Sunday roast, the pork was delicious along with the cheesy leeks! Amazing. Atmosphere is lovely and something a bit different. Staff were very attentive and pleasant. Would return
