This is a lovely place, nice cosy boothes, they are nearly there with the food, just a suggestion, buy better butchers homemade sausages instead of the thin ones you serve, also onion gravy should have onions in it, not onion flavour. Better to serve it on a plate, not a bowl! Simple changes could make simple dishes much better!

Lovely food at reasonable prices. In a great location near the Leeds Liverpool canal. The atmosphere is friendly and a warm log burner in the seating area did a lot to take the chill off a cold day.

Really good meal - the homemade Nachos were amazing and the fish & chips main course was perfect. What really I Impressed us was the size of the meal - sensible and not too big. We left feeling satisfied and (for a change) not bloated.

We arrived at 7pm and was informed that certain items for a Sunday Roast ie, York pud and Roast Potatoes the main essentials of a Sunday dinner, were not available, as they had been busy that day. If we did order a roast dinner they would give us extra other items, ie mash and vege. But I felt a little disappointed that they could not have made extra during the day if they felt they were running out. However what we did have was really good and very satisfying. We would go again.

The boathouse use to be one of our favourite places to eat we thought we would give it a go even though it had been taken over by new management where should I start on arrival you could smell old cooking far from the kitchen the inside of the pub wasn’t as clean as it use to be the tables were dirty/slightly sticky and the floors weren’t that clean either You could only have a set Sunday lunch menu no a la Carte My daughter said mum do u really wanna eat here if the smell of cooking fat is effecting u u I said no let’s give it a try My daughter had chicken liver pate well it was very sour and u only got a very thin slice of pate wasn’t nice at all We both decided to have chicken roast dinner we to say we we’re extremely disappointed was an understatement the chicken was dry cabbage was raw the mash potato was cold and lumpy roast potatoes were under cooked and cold and watery gravy which u could see at the hatch of the kitchen that it was just left sitting there I spoke to a member of staff and she asked me if I would like it reheated I said no thank you she then offered a fresh one which I declined You could see by the people that were eating lunch most of them left potatoes and veg I was devastated that a place we had been going for years had go so down hill

Only visited 3 weeks ago got the same order everything was different. The mushroom starter was amazing last time with garlic and cream sauce. Yesterday it was bland, no sauce and presented totally differently. We ordered the beef dinner. 3 weeks ago it was lovely succulent thick cuts of beef. Yesterday it was sliced thin totally presented differently and we had to order more veg and gravy at an extra cost. It’s frustrating because it’s was spot on bet seems like costs are being cut already but the prices are the same. People will start to not go back if they receive food like that yesterday. Would love and explanation to why everything was so different in such a short space of time and we paid over £100.
