Reviews
"Went here for a concert and the ambiance was beautiful. The drinks weren’t overpriced as in most venues"
"For me this venue is too cramped and the stage is too low so you can't see of you're at the back and it gets very hot (even in October) but the sound was great"
"A good music venue on a moored ship, in a beautiful habourside location. Friendly staff. Parking right next to the vessel on The Groves car park. Seating available in some of the bars but not in the main auditorium, the lower deck. Smoking area outside on the top deck. Several toilets, adequate, but I had to ask where to find them. Generally, signage needs to be improved - bigger signs aboard and more of them please!"
"Awesome venue, it’s a boat ! The live music was electrifying and straight through body and soul. Amazing would highly recommend any gig here."
