Our experience at The Boat Inn was thoroughly disappointing. Despite the lovely bar staff directing us to the restaurant area, after much discussion, which was empty, due to the extremely cold weather and our young child and dog, halfway through our drinks. The landlady abruptly told us our dog wasn't allowed there, despite prior approval from the bar staff which I explained to her. Her response? "I don't care." Terrible service and communication, making for an overall unpleasant visit. We had to stand in the snow whilst my partner finished his pint. The heating area does not work. The pub advertises itself as dog friendly however dogs are only allowed in the back bar area where children cannot go. During the cold weather, this makes it extremely hard for families with dogs to have a drink at the local pub. The staff are lovely, as are the customers, but the landlady was extremely rude. Had she asked us nicely to move, this reveiw wouldn't be as bad. We are new to the area and will not be visiting again.

Really nice little pub ,exactly what we wanted and expected, proper pub grub ,huge portions and very affordable, friendly staff

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Can't wait to go back again.

Lunch Friday 13th 2023. I had small fish chips and mushy peas. The batter was crispy not fatty nice size piece of fish, lovely chips and peas. My friend had the 10 oz gammon it must have been an 1” thick I thought it was a very thick pork chop, chips and etc, all I could think was she will never eat all that but she did, even the lovely waitress was surprised. The staff are super sadly I didn’t take their names. As everything is cooked fresh we did have to wait but we were not in a hurry, and we felt relaxed and happy on our way home. Five * should be 10. Thank you ladies it was delicious.
