Game Fortnight at The Boat

Book Now
For 16 days our menu will be dominated by game, with much of the produce being sourced locally or regionally and the dishes bringing influences from all over the world.  However, we will still have a good selection of our pub classics and vegetarian dishes on for those that aren’t that wild about game.
