Northampton's first and only floating restaurant!
'Commissioned' for build by Jack Patel in 2006, the boat was completed and moored at its current location in 2014. The boat covers 2 decks, has a licenced bar, vegan cafe, customer toilets on board and can be hired for events, wedding receptions, etc. and has become a bit of a Northampton landmark.
