The Boat, Berkhamsted

Beautiful setting beside the canal. Lovely flower naskeys around really adds to the scene. You have to enter wearing a mask to announce yourself at the bar and can sit out or inside. You scan the qr code on the table and order and pay for everything on the phone. The service was excellent. Young man served us very friendly and helpful. Food very tasty. The only negative point I can make is the toilets had a very strong odour of fish. Unsure why. But otherwise great place. Very reasonable price and good food. Recommend.

The location of this pub is great, very easy to get to and plenty of parking around the area. We ordered a table, but when we arrived they were a bit disorganised and we ended up with a pretty rubbish table near the door and without much space, we had taken our 2 year son with us too which made it more difficult. The food looked great on arrival, but it was very salty and despite mentioning this there was no response from the staff, so left quite disappointed in the overall experience. Could be better is the tag line.

I love this place so much! Perfect location, food, drinks and friendly staff! Always go there with pleasure!

We booked a table for food but unfortunately there was not much choice and they charge £16 for sardines which are cheap!. So we left after our drinks.Lovely setting, nice decor. Would recommend for a drink in a nice setting

I've just enjoyed possibly the best pub food I've ever had. The chicken balotine was beautifully presented and tasted fabulous. BUT, a big but this, it took so long to arrive that I was on the point of demanding my money back and going elsewhere. It would have helped if there had been some communication from the staff.

Nice outside area and beautiful pub located next to the bridge on the canal. Fantastic in summer and cosy in winter. I always find this pub a little weird when it comes to atmosphere. Sometimes it’s great and sometimes it feels really flat. The food is inconsistent and make sure you look up when the kitchen is open.
A nice place for afternoon and evening drinks.

Lovely place for lunch or dine in, or just for a drink and snack. Good food, very friendly and warm atmosphere.

Really disappointed with the service provided and overall experience. We had booked for dinner & drinks and on arrival asked to sit outside as it was a nice summer evening. The host, who had initially ignored us was hesitant and stated that it wasn’t possible (despite the restaurant being less busy than we’ve seen it).

On seating us we had to order via QR code, and to be fair the drinks came pretty swiftly. However, having to order via the QR and sat in an empty restaurant with no input or attention from staff, we decided to have dinner elsewhere.
Having had many good nights in the past, I know the tram at The Boat can do better.
