"quirky venue this place is just as he says on the line. an old fashion barge converted for on board and on river banks. the menu is not long because the more galereed would not allow it, but the selection meets most needs of people. owner and youthful. the owner is very passionate about her caffe. I started with a huh laksa, beautiful when gently seasoned and had a baguette with breakfast ingredient inside. good speck herby sausage and i.e. my mint hot chocolate was very exhausting. my partner had healthier but also delicious food. the inner of the barge still seems very authentic. friendly chatty staff, would recommend."

Took the grandchildren. They really liked the boat idea. The food was good as well. They had jacket potato and ice-cream. Lovely will be back

Lovely place to grab a coffee and sit alongside the river using the tables and chairs provided for patrons. Bacon and sausage baps are lovely too!

Wasn’t very impressed with the service, ordered 3 drinks and received them an hour before the food arrived. When the food eventually arrived the order was totally wrong, so ended up paying for more and getting less. Won’t be going back.

The Cheddar ploughman's with fig salad baguette was disappointingly dry, lacking butter and only had a small amount of salad that consisted mostly of a lettuce leaf. For £6, the quality of the sandwich could have been better. However, the coffee was good and the staff were pleasant.

I absolutely adore this charming cafe situated along the river Medway. They earn extra points in my book for offering vegan ice cream. I would love to see gluten-free cones and more options available as well. The staff is friendly, attentive, and overall, it's a delightful spot to spend an hour soaking up the sun. View menu

Surprised how good the coffe was here. Served by a delightful girl who may have still been in her teens. I drank it on a bench in front of the boat, which is moored on the River Medway between two noisy road bridges. It somehow managed to be a moment of tranquillity, despite being in the middle of one of the most hectic traffic interchanges I've seen in my life.

I discovered this café through an online search while looking for a place to unwind during my short visit to Maidstone. I was pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere is unique, the décor with the boat is lovely, and the frangipane and cold drink I ordered were delicious. Despite it being a very hot day, most of the shaded tables were occupied, but there was still space available. The staff were cheerful, welcoming, and accommodating.
