Incredible place! Best vegan roast we've ever had (seitan, mushroom & leek pie) with roasties, root veg, green cabbage & red cabbage plus really thick gravy! Really good portion sizes and great value. Good tunes, lovely view over the water and really great staff. Highly recommend this place!!!!

Always SO impressed with the food here :-) Local, delicious and always such good value. The last few times we've been I've been blown away by how good all the food was. Really good selection of local beers, a good wine list and really friendly service too- really recommend!

Superb location, ticks all the right boxes. Stopped in for lunch and drinks. We’re coming back tomorrow for the roast. Smashing team too, super friendly

Please note:-this is a vegetarian/pescatarian only restaurant. It’s not clear on their website.-order at the bar. We weren’t told this, so sat there waiting for a while.-Yorkshire puds don’t come with all roastsThat out of the way, the location is amazing and the food (although i was hoping for meat) was very good. (I’ve definitely had a meat roast here before so I guess it’s changed owner). The staff did offer us a Yorkshire pud when we saw it was missing. Very nice place.

Didn't get a table on the deck, but inside wasn't bad either. Tables and sits were a little sticky.Beer was OK, but I did not like my salmon.Overall, worth stopping by for the waterfront experience.

Gorgeous setting, a boat on the river!Staff are so friendly and attentive!We had drinks and a portion of whitebait just to nibble on. What a big portion of beautiful, crispy whitebait!The fish themselves were plump and served with crispy battered seaweed. The dip was delicious and for only £6.25 fantastic value for money considering the portion size!

Easily one of the best spots in Bristol. An old converted barge with panoramic views of the dockyards. Great food and very well kept beer. Bring a book and just soak in the scenery. They allow dogs too. Great place to sink a beer after paddle boarding on the other side of the harbour.

I really like this place, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the food and drink they sold and the atmosphere was really nice as a early evening eatery and then as a late night music venue.My only critique, and it's not much of one, but due to the construction of the barge I guess, there doesn't appear to be much sound insulation between the lower deck performance area and the main deck bar/eating area, so once the band starts up, you can pretty much hear it in the restaurant.If you are after a quiet meal in a harbour front venue, pick your time as it really is a lovely venue, just loud when the band plays.
