⭐ Meet the Team ⭐

You might recognise Julian around The Boathouse, as he’s been part of our team for the past 2 years!🍻

When he’s not keeping things running smoothly, you’ll find him enjoying a JW Lees Original Lager from the bar 🍺 and tucking into our Steak & Ale Pie from the menu. Proper Boathouse choices!

🐾 Fun fact Julian is also the proud owner of Harley, who you might remember from our Dogs of the Week! Safe to say, Harley knows exactly where to come for a dog friendly day out. 🐶❤️

Thanks for being part of the team, Julian! Here’s to many more years at The Boathouse! 🍻

🍻 Beer garden season might be slowly coming to an end… but don’t worry, we’re not going anywhere!

As the evenings get a little cooler and the nights start drawing in, it’s time to swap the garden for a cosy spot inside the Boathouse. Whether you’re joining us for a few drinks, grabbing some food or settling in for a catch-up with friends, we’ve got plenty of room waiting for you. 🍽️🍺

So make the most of those last few sunny days outside, then come on in and get cosy with us when the temperature drops. We’ll see you at the bar! ❤️
