The Boat Inn in Doncaster

The food was really great, especially the new items on the menu which went down very well.I loved the beef rib and my nephew enjoyed the lamb koftas. Also the Black Forest Flower Pot was incredible! Looked amazing and tasted so good! My Mum has a smaller appetite these days so we requested a child’s portion of fish and chips. Nothing was too much trouble and all our needs were accommodated during the evening. Service was excellent and timings of food being served were perfectly acceptable on a Saturday evening. We dine at The Boat often and are never disappointed.

Always a pleasure to visit. Staff are friendly and helpful and always welcoming. Good humour and efficient service from everyone, can’t pick just one person . Amazing food . Will definitely be back !

Not been for at least 10 years and can't believe what I've been missing out on! Went for the lunch menu, shared a lamb koftas to start and oh my god it was amazing! The kebabs were lovely and juicy, and the watermelon and tzatziki were just a next level accompaniment!! For main had a beef brisket sarnie, he had chicken with crushed advocado sarnie, they too were amazing! Had banoffe pie for pud, very nice but missing a bit of cream lol. The service was good and fast, just the way we like it. Will definitely be returning, soon! 😍😍

We had Sunday lunch, the trio of meats, beef, pork and turkey. Everything was very well cooked and there was plenty of it (glad we didn't order starters!). Fresh veg and probably the best turkey I've ever eaten. Very comfortable surroundings and good service. Can't fault anything. The outside area looks great, we will come back in the summer.

I have to say we were a bit disappointed with our meal. The burger bun was toasted and the burger was dry, chips overdone. Mine was the beef bourguignon which was dry around the edges. The rest was ok. It's a shame as it was a return visit for us since they closed.The staff were fantastic though.

Lovely meal, it's a treat for sure. Meals around £13 - -£15 but you can tell it's been made with passion. True authentic pub meal. Also had their lunch which was super filling for £8. I signed up to their email news letter and was given an instant free dessert coupon. A week later I got a 40% off coupon. Staff are really lovely and really went the extra mile. I recommend going for a walk around and end up having a few bevies and a meal here.

Lovely pub by the River Don. The service was excellent and the food was very tasty. We'll definitely be back soon and plan to visit in the warmer months to take advantage of the lovely garden and courtyard.

The Boat has a lovely atmosphere in a great location and the staff were really helpful.Most of our food was very tasty but the prawn cocktail with crab and avocado didn’t have any crab or avocado (!). I didn’t speak out earlier enough but I shouldn’t have had to. It was pretty obvious straight away to the waiting staff so it made me wonder if this is a regular tactic.

What a fantastic night. When we landed we were told there was a very limited menu as the gas had gone off. No matter, what we did have food wise was superb. However even better were the staff. We had a laugh all night, and a special shout out goes to Kelsey, our waitress who embodied what professional customer service should look like, she did her job well, but engaged with the jokes and certainly out bantered one of our group!! Who was taking some bosh for drinking Rosé wine.... The Stella labels were hilarious!! Bravo!!Boat Inn management please give Kelsey a Christmas bonus... She deserves it!! We will be back...

Absolutely beautiful venue. The food was spectacular and the staff went above and beyond. I definitely recommend The Boat Inn for anyone looking for somewhere to go with family and friends. The finishing touch was the beautiful happy birthday message on my partners pudding. Thank you to all the staff involved for this wonderful night
