  “What a wonderful spot, right on the canal, it’s the perfect place to enjoy brunch, especially on a sunny day and soak up the atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The English breakfast was generous and really filling, and the coffee was exceptional. I’d also highly recommend the croissant with the pistachio topping, it was absolutely delicious! Thank you Arthur! A lovely place that me and my husband will be definitely be returning to.”

  “Absolutely love the location, very quirky, a quiet atmosphere with a slight murmer of a buzz in the background. But £20 for poached eggs in a puddle of vinegary water, rubbery mushrooms and very blande sausages. Rip off, tourist trap, better off walking further and finding somewhere tastier to eat! Responding to my reviews reply: as you can see from my on line banking statment, the breakfast was £20.85, maybe i should have specified that i had to pay for tea seperately, which was probably the only decent thing i had during my visit - but how hard is it to get tea wrong? As for your 40% regular customers, maybe they dont have any financial constraints, or taste buds? Have you asked your staff if i was rude to them that day? I think it would have been rude of me to ask for my eggs not to come in a puddle of vinegar water. If u feel me giving my honest opinion, and warning the general public to avoid your overpriced, low quality establishment as me being rude, then i will be the rudest person on earth. Where the food is good i will say, where it is really bad, i will warn. Best wishes scamming good people out of their hard earned money, and a respectful nod to you for taking money from the rich that dont know better. Peace, one love”

  “This is a very special spot for a coffee lunch breakfast or a slice of cake, the café is a canal boat which you can go in or you can sit on the chairs outside. There is a particularly nice spot to sit in if you walk all the way down the boat, it is like a private booth. I really enjoyed the chocolate and orange cake here as well as my flat white. Some of the mugs are made of metal and get very hot and it is quite hard to drink from so my only suggestion would be that they stopped using those metal mugs. The food here is nice, but it is not particularly fancy, but the price is also reflect that. I have removed stars due to the option when paying for you to tip. I do not think this is good and you should not force customers to have to decide whether to tip or not especially if they are just ordering a coffee.”

  “It’s a nice place to stop and sit down for a coffee or a short breakfast. You have a lovely view on the canal. The price of the coffee is for London reasonable and was quite good. The only thing I don’t like: when I have coffee at the table I would rather have a real Coffee Cup and not a paper one”

  “What a gorgeous waterside cafe! The scenery is absolutely beautiful. Very tranquil and picturesque. The food exceeded our expectations and the service was spot on. Mohammed, our waiter, was very friendly, well mannered and attentive. Fantastic experience! We'll be back”

  “The place and ambiance are nice. My partner and I ordered some Eggs Royale and we were a bit disappointed as the portions were quite small and the eggs were not correctly poached. The chai latte was also very average. And no napkins. But yes, for sure there is this Little Venice ambiance, especially if you go the the rear of the boat.”

  “A beautiful, pet-friendly café with polite and welcoming staff. Working in hospitality myself, I really appreciate when a team genuinely enjoys what they do and that passion shines through here. There’s nothing better than relaxing with a cuppa while being so well taken care of. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy breakfast or more… thank you peeps!”

  “Lovely little boat cafe! Food was basic but good. Actually didn’t expect them to have any lunch/brunch menu, as we thought it was just a small coffee and tea with cookies and muffins cafe, but were happy that they served brunch, full English, ham and cheese toastie etc too!”

  “Very picturesque cafe in a boat on the Regent Canal. Indoor and outdoor seating. We visited mid-morning in late May and there was plenty of seating, but I'm guessing it gets quite busy during high season. Service was great, and a good place for a snack or light meal before or after your canal tour.”
