Boathouse Cafe - Carte

Dropped in for the first time today and had a nice value for money burger with tea served by a jovial and friendly owner. Glad we called and it is on the list for future visits when we visit Attenborough Reserve, Beeston parkrun and Nottingham.

Love this place. Stopped with my grandsons. They had excellent milkshakes. Most people seem to be eating fish, chips and mushy peas. Going back to try them as they looked lovely. This would be a good place to take children but the food looked lovely. Nice location

Luscious Tuna Mayo sandwich, served with crisp fresh salad and a few crisps. Well filled as always (whether ham cheese or egg mayo). Prices if anything are too cheap! That's a rare compliment. Great place to have a break when out with the dog, family or just to walk by the river Trent. Voir le carte

I really like this waterside cafe. It's like going back in time. Tony and his team are very welcoming. You can sit indoors or outdoors. I had oap fish and chips for £4 and it was excellent. In the winter it's open from 8.30 am to 3.30 pm every day. [I am not sure of opening times in summer. Also enjoy a local walk or cycle by the river and maybe visit the nearby Attenborough Nature Reserve.

My grandchildren and I often ride our bikes from Long Eaton to Beeston Marina along the Trent. Every time we pass by the Boathouse, the kids get really hungry so we stop in for sausage and bacon rolls. They are delicious and the best in the Midlands. Well-mannered children even receive a complimentary piece of fruit, which is a nice extra. The atmosphere is lively and the prices are very reasonable. I would highly recommend this place.

We often stop off here for refreshment while passing on our bikes or walking past. Tony and the staff are very welcoming and the food is always great value, their cooked breakfast are very good. They do a good selection filled cobs toasties and bacon and sausage cobs. Coffee and tea in big mugs, great after a long walk. Have some of their cake to finish off with. The place is always busy and very popular. Nice in summer to sit and watch the boats passing on the river. Voir le carte

A good old fashioned cafe set by the river offering good food at reasonable prices. It's not posh but you get service with a smile (Tony is very friendly), a good large mug of tea and you definitely won't leave hungry! Perfect stop off if you're visiting Attenborough Nature Reserve or walking along The Big Track. We visited with the family this time and tucked into various (really filling) sandwiches of veggie sausage, roast veg and mozzarella and fried egg. Delicious! An excellent pit stop. Go eat!

Two elderly men recently dined at The Chandlery and stopped by the café for lunch. The decor was quite unique and interesting, but we were greeted warmly and found the menu to be extensive. We opted for the pensioners' lunch special of gammon, egg, and chips, which was delicious. The gammon was of high quality, the chips were fresh, and the egg was cooked perfectly. All of this, along with a nice cup of tea, came to a total of £5.00 each - a great value. We may not be in the area again, but if we are, we will definitely return.

From J Boy of Derby Did the long riverside walk from Attenborough and found this gem of a cafe by chance. Everything was first class, lovely mug of tea and fantastic bacon rolls with good quality generous portions of bacon. Very friendly owner who made you feel at home, outside seating as well as indoors available Great place on a warm day to sit by the river. Everyone is catered for here there is a covered smoking area and a sandpit for children. Great place, will certainly walk here again. Car park just behind the cafe and a bus stop just outside. Oh yes the prices are very reasonable Voir le carte
