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 events@boathousenewmillerdam.co.uk for more info.

Yes we do - You can collect them from the cafe. Vouchers are made to order so please call ahead and let us know how much you would like and we'll ensure we have them ready for you!

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.
