To have had a morning walking around Blenheim Palace we came out wanting to find a Pub. And we most certainly did, The Boat, from the moment we walked in greeted with a smile and asked did we need a drink. Coming back from spotless toilets back in the bar we had drinks on the table awaiting. Somehow I had gone back in time everything was just so cosy and the staff were sheer delight. Conversations back and forth made us feel like regulars. Keep it up you cannot lose, in a world of “ madness “ you made two old timers very warm inside. Bless you all, your a credit to the industry. And to walk outside and see the Canal Boats a real bonus. Baz Chris Gurr Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
The pub is really charming, but unfortunately, our experience was not great. We had a long wait for our burgers because they couldn't find them at first. When they arrived, they were a bit overcooked and served on a dry bun. The salad was just a few leaves thrown on the plate, not like the pictures we had seen. The chips were also not very warm. The server seemed stressed and didn't seem too concerned when we mentioned our disappointment with the food. It's a shame because the venue itself is lovely. Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
Great location, nice enough pub, though slightly careworn. Atmosphere is relaxed and staff are friendly and welcoming. Food was poor though looked like it was all straight out of the Brake Bros van and into the microwave/fryer. The descriptions on the menu didn't match what appeared on our (cold) plates. Wouldn't go back. Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

Lunch Review
I recently dined at this restaurant for lunch and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the ambiance was pleasant. I highly recommend this place for a great lunch experience.
Upon entering the restaurant, it is clear that both the food and service are exceptional. I am eagerly anticipating my next visit. The food, service, and atmosphere all deserve a perfect score of 5.
After a trip to Blenheim Palace I stumbled upon the Boat Inn accidentally while looking for the nearby and similarly named "Jolly Boatman" restaurant.

Lovely location, surrounding and a nice place to stop for a drinkBut other than that just stay awayThe staff are evasive, rude and lazy.
Went here on a much needed night out with 5 other mothers and all meals were disappointing.
