The staff are like a little dose of sunshine even when there's a storm .

Fergus Murray

Really good coffee, and it's so nice being able to sit down by the canal with it.

Ewan Walker

Gorgeous coffees, hot chocolates and cakes from the cafe on the canal next to the Leamington Lift Bridge. Four drinks and two cakes cost us £14, which is very reasonable for a city centre location. Highly recommended with a stroll along the start of the Union Canal. 😎👍🏻

Don Turner

Amazing floating coffee shop.

Amelia & Will

Adorable little coffee shop on the water! Great prices and sweet barista! Walk along the canal and grab a cup.

Mind Journeys

Philipp Heidkamp

Very nice place for an excellent morning coffee and a sweet bite.

It’s a small local business, with a lovely vibe. I see people there every time I do morning jogging along the canal. I ran out of coffee beans this morning so I had a flat white there, and I did find their coffee amusing. It’s now 2.7 pounds for all coffee. Not the least priced but over-priced? I have lived here for a couple years and I really don’t know what you’re comparing to.

Perfect place for a hot drink after a windy and rainy cold run. Picked up an oat latte -- no additional price for dairy free-- made in under a minute. Delicious and the barista was very nice.

Great place on the canal by the old lift bridge. No extra charge for plant milks and the baristas are always friendly and quick! Free dog biscuit and or water. Not sure if the biscuits are always available. The only disappointment is that card payment does not give an option to add a tip. Please either make it easily available or tell us you're paying staff extra because I always tipped cash before but never have any now. And I don't think I'm alone!

David Nemeth

This boat has been taken over by a very friendly and professional team and created an amazing oasis by the Union Canal. This place us a must on sunny days or when you decide to take a healthy walk by the canal. The coffee is excellent and the treats for our pet pals is a nice touch. Highly recommended

Roy Schuller

First class coffee in a fab location. If the suns out it's the perfect place to sit in a deckchair by the canal, if not a great place to grab a coffee to go. Just remember to bring your own cup if you want to avoid disposable cups.
