30th Birthday Party · 70 guests
Brilliant venue
Easy to link to music system
Fab use of space
Great location and prompt replies from hosts
Had a really incredible time
Could have done with labels for the gluten free/vegan food dishes ordered
It was busy downstairs with my guests so, though all food came out in a timely manner it was hard to distinguish what was what, and naturally important with dietary issues

30th Birthday Party · 30 guests
I celebrated my 30th on the East Deck for about 35 people. The venue was great, the views are great and the boat is spacious. The staff were really friendly and professional, i found their communication before the booking to be great as they were really helpful getting the right type of booking.
If you're looking for a more intimate gathering, I would highly recommend this place!
Thanks for a great night

30th Birthday Party · 45 guests
Great venue at a central location. Area was marked out in advance, and communication with the venue was quick and helpful. Food came out on time and was more than enough for guests! Staff were very helpful on the day.
Probably wasn't quite large enough for 40 guests, it became quite hard to move around the boat.
