Lovely experience, if you fancy something a little bit different then give this a go. The food is very good and watching the quiet countryside float past is wonderful.
the boat was set out lovely with places set for afternoon tea with China crockery, the setting is gorgeous, however the afternoon tea seemed a tad skimpy..1 slice of quiche and half pork pie per person, the sandwiches and cakes were fine, just felt could have been a bit more for the price paid £25 each, would still recommend.
The weather was lovely but on a bad day it wouldn’t be very comfortable waiting to board. Maybe a shelter or canopy would be beneficial. Once we boarded the barge everything was spot on. The staff were efficient, friendly and very polite. The food was beautiful and the scenery complimented everything else. Overall a very enjoyable experience.
Cracking day out food great and the staff fantastic really enjoyed it.this was a relaxing trip in good comfort would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone
It was brilliant. I took my mum who lives with dementia. She used to go cruising but due to her condition she is unable to go on holidays. She loved the canal cruise it brought back some happy memories for her. the food was amazing. we are planning to do another one and are looking to do an evening tapas cruise. fantastic
Everything about the trip was lovely, the service and the setting were perfect for the atmosphere and managed excellently. A little more food regarding the quiche and pork pie would be a good progression - or a selection of sandwiches so guests were able to select what they wanted.
The cruise was lovely. The food was excellent, good choice and restaurant standad. Attentive staff who looked after us well. Great experience on a very we!coming boat.
We would highly recommend a cruise and dine trip. The food was lovely and the service was excellent. A great way to spend the afternoon!
Food excellent. Staff were lovely. Good value for money. Possibly could have had a better table as we were seated next to bar but I guess someone had to be there and the other three people I was with happy. 🤔😁
Such a lovely relaxing way to have a delicious Sunday lunch. Would highly recommend it We will definitely be back. Staff were lovely. Whole trip was great.
We went as part of my husband's 60th birthday celebrations, he kept thanking me again and again as he was having such a wonderful time. From the minute we boarded we felt totally relaxed. Service was always with a smile, nothing too much trouble. We went on the tapas cruise and the food was exceptional. It was freshly cooked on board. The tables were set beautifully. Cannot rate this experience highly enough.
Great food and plenty of it, excellent service and thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing trip on the canal. Would recommend, good value for money. Definitely do again.
We spent a very enjoyable couple of hours on the Liverpool to Leeds canal being served afternoon tea by very pleasant staff. We enjoyed looking at the wildlife both on the water and in the fields as we passed by at a very leisurely speed. We were celebrating my friend's birthday and it was everything we had hoped for.
Fab food, fantastic atmosphere, great staff and good value. Would highly recommend Canal Boat cruises to anyone looking for something a little bit different on a night out with family, friends or the other half.

Booked the cruise as a treat for my husbands birthday. We had a lovely, relaxed afternoon with excellent food and service. The staff were very helpful and efficient .
First time at the "Tapas" evening cruise and it won`t be the last. Party of 6 and accommodated altogether in bow of boat. The tapas seemed never ending and plentiful. The boat was spacious and welcoming. Staff courteous and helpful. A very relaxing evening. Value for money. Thank you.
Lovely relaxing evening with nice 🥘 food and drink. Beautiful scenery. Staff very pleasant and attentive all in all a good night out for a special treat.
Enjoyed a lovely lunch and cruise on the Romance. Excellent service from friendly staff. We will definitely book another cruise and would recommend them to friends.
This was such a lovely experience and the weather contributed it was lovely. The seating was so comfortable and a little extra bonus there was a mini electric fan on each table, which was put to good use by me. The meal was very nicely cooked and served and they had quite an extensive bar on board. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and we felt very well looked after. The toilet facilities were very clean and modern. I will highly recommend this to all my friends and family because I cannot believe that this would promote a criticism on any quarter. Came away feeling relaxed but buzzing at the same time. Loved it will be visiting again
I loved the cruise. The staff were very kind and helpful and the service was excellent. I would highly recommend going on this trip. 😃
A wonderful way to spend a lovely sunny day. The tables were set out beautifully with fresh flowers. The cocktail menu was good and service was excellent. We were well looked after and the food arrived at a leisurely pace. The sandwiches were nice and fresh and the scones were served warm with plenty of butter and cream. We liked the addition of the pork pie and quiche. The cakes however, could have been more refined. They were a little on the heavy side. Would definitely return for future visits and would feel confident buying this experience as a gift for family and friends in the future.
Would thoroughly recommend this cruise. It was Excellent from start to finish. Food and service excellent. You are looked after extremely well. Absolutely no complaints.
