Really lovely and pleasant afternoon

We visited Bridgewater Cruises to celebrate my Grandad’s 91st birthday. Right from the first phone call to book the experience, to visiting and enjoying our afternoon out, the staff were nothing but friendly and welcoming to us all. They even decorated our table with a ‘Happy Birthday’ banner which was a lovely unexpected touch. The food was delicious and nicely presented, and you were checked on regularly for drinks top-ups. While travelling along the canal there was the occasional recording played that told you bits of history about that canal which was interesting too. We throughly enjoyed our afternoon out and will look to book again next year on the new boat they are currently renovating.

Great idea for a afternoon tea

If you looking for a bit of a different afternoon tea experience it's a must

Lovely Treat

Was really impressed with the gorgeous fresh food and desserts served, even though today was one of the hottest of the year. Pots of jam and cream are supplied on each table for the delicious cherry scones. You certainly won't be hungry after this feast. There is also a bar onboard supplying both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, even tea/coffee. Loved the fresh flowers on the tables too. What a fabulous way to have an afternoon out on the water. I would definitely love to do this again. My sincere thanks to the staff for their attention to detail and great service. May I suggest that perhaps mini fans could be provided when experiencing extreme temperatures?

What a lovely gift, couldn't fault it from beginning to end.

Lovely cruise

The staff were very welcoming and our table was reserved for us. The afternoon tea was served as we gently sailed along the Bridgewater Canal. The sandwiches were accompanied by a small mug of soup. There was a small posett desert, scones and cakes, with tea or coffee. The food was delicious. At the end of the cruise we could have a box to take home any leftover cakes. A very enjoyable afternoon.
