The Boat That Rocks Dinner Menu
A lot of thought and love has gone into the evening menu. We listen to the feedback our regular guests give and work from there. We do change the menu with the seasons in order to be able to deliver fresh local produce while it’s at its best.
We keep the classic dishes everyone loves, and rest other favourites – it is not to say we won’t be doing them again! We just like to offer a change. If you would like something in particular for a special evening then please phone and speak to a manager on 01305 823000.
