Reviews
Fantastic party boat directly opposite the London Eye on Embankment with amazing views of the Thames We booked the onboard comedy club, which was very well organised. We were shown are allocated seats and we're allowed to leave some items there before coming back for the start of the show The main deck has dance floor and DJ. When we arrived there was a saxophone accompaniment that worked really well with with the crowd The security there seem well organised. The staff are very friendly and happy to help. Drinks are expensive, but then you are effectively paying for a prime location and events venue in central London The comedians we saw were hilarious and their engagement with the audience was great! Highly recommended!
We visited here on 23rd May 2026, we stayed for drinks and then food. The atmosphere was amazing, very busy and very lively. The view on deck and below is just amazing. We were sat eating our dinner with a view of the London Eye. The food was served promptly, and was cooked thoroughly and was served hot. The service was brilliant, Khalid (I hope I’ve remembered right) our waiter was so attentive, kind and very polite. The general manager Paul was hard working and also attentive. I couldn’t fault this venue at all and we will look forward to returning.
Brilliant evening spent with family. The staff were very very attentive and the food was fresh and delicious. We had views of the London eye as we dined and there was a do on the top deck after dinner. Would highly recommend
A lovely pub on the water. Even in the rain you can sit under shelter at the rear of boat. Obviously perfect for a summers day. Upper deck you can order drinks at the upper bar but also order food and drink to your upper deck table via the app. Just scan the QR code. The menu for the upper deck is different to the lower deck restaurant. The restaurant is lovely as well with great views of the river and bank through port hole windows. There is movement of the boat but for the most part it is minimal.
The food is amazing. We shared 2 platters between 4 of us and there was lots! The prices were extremely good, especially as you're on a boat, in London! The staff are super friendly. The boat itself it amazing! You can have a view of the London Eye, St Paul's & Big Ben all from one spot! They have a nightclub on the bottom floor, though we didn't attend this, it looked pretty cool from the advertisements.... Whether you're on a date night or in a group, I'd highly recommend visiting. We'll be returning again very soon and will likely visit every time we're in London!
