**Sunday to Thursday:** 10am – 8pm
**Friday & Saturday:** 10am – 10pm
**Closed Wednesdays**

It may be raining outside, but we're warm, cosy and ready to welcome you at Boat & Bean 🌊

Whether you're looking for a coffee while watching the rain ripple across the River Medway, a leisurely lunch, or an evening drink with friends, we've got you covered.

🍳 Brunch & lunch served daily
🥪 Fresh bakery treats
🍻 Cruzcampo & Hawkstone IPA on draft
🍷 Large range of Wines
🌿 Evening light bites featuring our delicious riverside flatbreads
🐾 Dog friendly

And let's be honest... this weather is made for a **hot latte with your favourite syrup** ☕🤎 and one of our freshly prepared **sausage or bacon ciabattas**

Don't forget your **furry friends are welcome too!** 🐾💛
We're always happy to see wagging tails, and every good dog can enjoy a **free puppuccino** while you relax by the river.

There’s something rather special about sitting inside, warm and dry, watching the river flow by while the rain falls outside.

So if the weather has dampened your plans, why not swap the umbrella for a coffee, a ciabatta and a riverside view?

We look forward to seeing our wonderful Boat & Be***rs (both two-legged and four-legged!) soon 💛
