We didn’t book in advance but we’re greeted by extremely courteous staff and made to feel very welcome. Our order was taken promptly and we were served with a most delicious meal of Piri piri king prawns with chorizo followed by the thickest cod steak I have ever eaten! My wife’s starter and main course was equally enjoyable! Certainly not cheap - but excellent value worth every penny! Will visit again.
Great food/service! Pil pil prawns are to die for! Andy makes the best mojito's!!!
I hired the Chandelier Bar for a surprise party for my wife and could not be happier with the venue, food and service we received. The location was perfect and the venue itself was lovely. The booking process was simple and nothing was left to chance. The views are of course stunning. A wonderful place to spend a few hours, I definitely made the right choice with the Boathouse!
Food excellent and hot, service great as not rushed. Price is competitive. Staff very helpful and attentive. Really friendly and easy going atmosphere. Superb views of the Town Quay from the restaurant. Definitely visit again if in this area. Thank you.
Lovely restaurant and bar. We only went for a few drinks. They have plenty of outdoor and sheltered seating. There is a fine selection of beers, wines and spirits. It is close to the marina and has some nice views.
Great food, great service. We have been coming here for years. Its always busy but it's really well staffed so service is always good. Book ahead though as walk ups are always limited. Great menu with something for everyone. The ribs are great.

A sophisticated and stylish venue with a welcoming and relaxing ambience. The service is impeccable. Our starters of seared scallops and cod taco were delicious. The main og mussels in cream and chives the vest for us in many years. My main of King Prawn linguine was outstanding.
Popped in for breakfast on Bank Holiday Monday, hadn’t booked so well weren’t sure what to expect re. Table availability, we offered to sit anywhere and were, surprisingly, provided with an outdoor table to enjoy the sunshine as long as we were done within an hour as the table was needed… no problem! Very friendly staff, great atmosphere.
I had a Full English and my husband had the Vegan alternative, both were very flavoursome, made with great produce and a good portion size to make us full but not overly so. The bacon was the highlight for me and the spinach & avocado for my husband.
The only down side was that our coffees, which we ordered straight away, arrived after our food had arrived so we were waiting quite a bit for our caffeine fix, but the coffee was really good.
Awesome food, perfect attentive service and great live music ...just a lovely place overlooking the water with lovely people 💕
Great venue with a buzzy atmosphere, the service is friendly and attentive. On the pricey side for what it is. Read the menu carefully as there are add on costs to the price for many of the dishes. However if you want to keep it simple there is a great pizza section. Cocktails are good and there is often live music. They handle large groups well if you are celebrating or having a get together.
Visited Friday night for a meal as we heard they had a great gluten free menu. It didn’t disappoint. Huge selection of food and the staff there were impeccable. Table wasn’t quite ready when we arrived but got a drink from the bar on the table tab, and just after we received our drinks the table was ready. Lots of table staff which were very responsive and not too intrusive. Great atmosphere and will definitely visit again.
Smashing food, fantastic service. Not sure why everyone thinks it's very expensive place.... very reasonably priced
