Hidden gem vibes!
We popped in for a drink and instantly fell in love. Sipping cocktails on a boat in Little Venice, right in the middle of London? Pure magic! Honestly, it doesn't get much better than this.

This place is the coolest. My daughter walked by it and wanted to eat here because of the brightly colored boat. It's pretty fancy for dinner and they don't have a kids menu, but it's absolutely delicious. My kids split the chicken Parmesan and it was huge. I got the chicken salad and margarita and it was refreshing and delightful. The entire experience was excellent, except leave kids at home if you can.

Great location and good service. A little pricey but not surprising. 
The burger meat was way over cooked so that spoilt the meal a bit.

Great little place to sit a while, have a delish coffee and people watch. Located right outside of Paddinton station on the canal.

Tried to get a coffee from the May Green side - which is the coffee bar. They were taking to-go orders from the bar, but insisted that if we sat down we needed to use the QR code. Did so, ordered two coffees but before I could pay it wanted name, address and email. Would not let me pay without. 

I'm not giving my email and details to a random business just to get a coffee.

Great food and service. Lots of vegetarian options that are really tasty (no, i am not surprised). The restaurant is on a houseboat (no movement at all) and nicely decored. You should enjoy the terasse when you can (we could not due to the rain). Would recommend the reservations, especially for weekend brunch. Diner menu is short but covers meat, fish and fully veggie-based options. Cheesecake is a must-have (can be shared...if necessary).

Canal boat originally built as a passenger ferry for the 2012 Olympics in London. Then converted into a restaurant. Menu doesn't have a lot of choices but everything is very good. We shared the charred corn "ribs" and tandoori salmon. Service was attentive. The only negative is that it's crazy loud inside because of the limited space.

Came here for some brunch with my boyfriend and it was super cute. The vibes are cute and calm and I love that it's right by the water, literally ! Food presentation was cute and I had the most delicious chai latte. Food portions were a bit small, so if your a heavy eater I wouldn't recommend. Overall, great experience !

This is a ridiculously cheerful & charming restaurant. Sitting on top of a boat, soaking in the sunshine while I was in London for a few days was a very unexpected experience! I had the vegan sandwich & it was delish! Unexpectly fresh & full of umami, acid & greens. It pairs nicely with the raspberry cocktail that's almost too pretty to drink.

The staff was busy but friendly. Just make sure to ask for Wi-Fi if you're a visitor because you order via your phone. 

I recommend a visit here & afterwards you can stroll down the canal to see the other restaurants, boats or parks along the way. 

I loved finding this oasis in the the busy city.

Very nice environment! Dishes are fresh and nice! Definitely try the sea category to explore salmon and tunas! There's a free cake with white chocolate and apple chip in the end!
