FAQS

Is the building wheelchair accessible?

Our outdoor patio is wheelchair accessible. Unfortunately there are steps to get to the indoor dining room and outdoor terrace. Our customer toilet also has a small step up to it, and is quite small so would not fit a wheelchair inside.

Do you take table bookings?

We don't, but there will only ever be a short wait for a table if we can't get you seated straight away!

Where can I park?

Guests are welcome to park in the public car park at the entrance to the dam, then it’s just a short walk down the path to the cafe.

Can I hire out the Boathouse?

Absolutely! The Boathouse is available for private hire 7 days a week, from 5-9pm. We can accomodate up to 28 guests. Email laurenboathouse@gmail.com for more info.

Are you open on bank holidays?

Yes we are!

Do you sell gift vouchers?

We do - just pop into the cafe to purchase one. If we don't have the amount you're looking for just let us know and we'll get one made up for you

Do you have vegan and gluten free options?

Yes we do! We always try to have at least one GF/VE cake on the counter.

Any of our sandwiches can be made into a GF salad.

We have oat and soya milk plus dairy free ice cream.

Please inform your server of any allergies or intolerances upon ordering. Due to our small kitchen, we cannot guarantee zero cross contamination when preparing orders.
