“ Absolutely brilliant experience today at The Boathouse at Newmillerdam. Fabulous food and great attention to my cow’s milk intolerance. There were 3 of us in our party and all had toasted sandwiches plus 1 packet of crisps, 2 large glasses of wine and a can of lemonade - delicious!! Special mention to Amelia and Nelly our waitresses who deserve huge praise for all their help - we are back in a couple of weeks! ”
“ It's a great cafe in a gorgeous location. It's right on the waters edge and has outside seating also on the waters edge with no fence, I wonder if the servers ever fall in! The views are fabulous. The menu is quite large and includes vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. The prices are reasonable and the food was delicious, especially the chocolate cake . The service was fast and friendly. It is a popular place and there was a small queue, but I only waited around 5 minutes. Definitely worth the wait. There is a car park by the main road but then you have to walk around 5 minutes to the cafe. There is a path right round the lake which is around 2 miles, so great for a walk with the dogs, then a coffee and a snack, the cafe is pet friendly. ”
