The Boat Inn is a cozy pub and restaurant on the shores of Kielder Water, nestled in the heart of Leaplish Waterside Park. With panoramic lake views and a warm, wood-accented interior, it's a popular stop for cyclists on the Reivers Route. The menu offers a mix of British classics, vegetarian options, and local specialties—from fish and chips to wild mushroom risotto and sticky toffee pudding. The pub is dog-friendly, has ample indoor and outdoor seating, and is connected to the Landal Kielder Waterside resort, where the Osprey Ferry also docks.

If you're either walking or cycling around Kielder Water then this is a great stopping point for refreshments.

The food and drinks are pretty average, but he views from the waterside are well worth it. As well as a pub there's a shop to stock up on supplies.

Good spot for refuelling with coffee and snacks before the Scotland border crossing!
