Awesome venue, it’s a boat ! The live music was electrifying and straight through body and soul. Amazing would highly recommend any gig here.

A good music venue on a moored ship, in a beautiful habourside location. Friendly staff. Parking right next to the vessel on The Groves car park. Seating available in some of the bars but not in the main auditorium, the lower deck. Smoking area outside on the top deck. Several toilets, adequate, but I had to ask where to find them. Generally, signage needs to be improved - bigger signs aboard and more of them please!

For me this venue is too cramped and the stage is too low so you can't see of you're at the back and it gets very hot (even in October) but the sound was great

Never been for a club night but the gigs here are fantastic. I highly recommend this venue for any touring band. One of Bristol's best. Plus, it's a boat!

Superb little music venue with great atmosphere in an unusual and quirky setting. It’s a converted boat with plenty of the walls being the hull of the boat so gives a nice industrial feel.

The stage area is down in the hill of the boat with the stage at one end, some gallery standing running around the top and the lower standing running back to a bar area.

Good range of beers available with another bar upstairs which is a bit quieter to grab a drink but also understandably has fewer people serving.

Capacity overall is about 600 so an intimate setting and you’re never far from the stage.

Great place to see a gig 🤟🏻

Went here for a concert and the ambiance was beautiful. The drinks weren’t overpriced as in most venues

Pretty nice but the music was not our type. The boat by itself is pretty dirty. Doesn’t really feel like partying in a boat. Would recommend going once.
