We were passing and decided to pop in for lunch, so glad we did. The service was fantastic sith attentive staff keeping us topped up with drinks and the menu was very good indeed. We decided to both go for the cow and chicken burger and was not disappointed. Firstly the size of the portions were huge! And the quality of produce definitely stood out. Both the beef and the chicken was delicious and the thick cut chips were perfectly cooked the side salad and fresh coleslaw was fantastic and to top it all off 2 huge onion rings. Stuffed is a understatement but we managed to split a sticky toffee pudding and custard. Needless to say we haven't eaten for the rest of the day 🤣. We will definitely be returning to try other items from the menu in the future for sure. Tje views over the river are beautiful on a clear sunny day and we sat outside enjoying the weather. The overall look of the inside was lovely too very clean and modern. The car park is limited but we had no issue finding a place.- Wait time

Last night we had a meal at The Ferry Boat Bar and Kitchen, our ‘local’ pub-restaurant. There were eight of us, family and friends, so we got to sample quite a lot of the menu items!
It was a lovely sunny evening and we sat outside on the riverbank for our pre dinner drinks. There is a lot of outdoor seating on the river foreshore, the flood bank and in the beer garden which is a bit more sheltered. Children’s play equipment is located on the riverbank too.
Our starters were Brie wedges, prawn cocktail, duck spring rolls, salt and pepper squid, and mozzarella sticks.
Main courses were fish and chips (of course!), Cajun chicken breast, lasagna, steak and ale pie and pan fried salmon.
Desserts were chocolate fudge cake, chocolate brownie and ice cream, chocolate cheesecake, ice cream sundae and sticky toffee pudding.
We paid around £40 pp which included wine, beer and soft drinks.
We had a great night, thank you to the staff of the Ferry Boat who coped with our needs admirably!!- Kid-friendliness
- Children’s play equipment on the riverbank, but adult supervision is essential as the river is deep and fast flowing

We went for the lunchtime menu we just had the 2 courses which was £14 each and it was well worth the money. Food was excellent and the service was great the girl behind the bar couldn't do enough for you . Really nice comfortable place we will definitely go back again but we will go in the evening and eat from the main menu. 👍👍

Proper home cooked food and located in an ideal location. Eat inside or out on the river bank in the summer. Highly recommended.

We have now been twice recently. Just two of us and also a family meal. Both times the food was fabulous, tasty, well presented and we didn’t have to wait long. Also a big plus for their allergen knowledge. Being a coeliac I have to be careful about the food I order. The staff are very clued up and I have no hesitation to eat here again. Prices are very competitive, it has a lovely atmosphere and is just a really nice place to enjoy a meal.- Price per person
