What Clotilde Romaguera doesn't like about Jolley's Boathouse:
Although the view is lovely, our recent dining experience was average. The staff were friendly but the food was disappointing, considering the price. The steak had gristle although cooked medium. The smokey chutney that accompanied the potato was overbearing and tasted like ham essence that was used in smallgoods. The potato itself was lovely. Unlikely to return. View all feedback. What Jared Shanahan likes about Jolley's Boathouse:
My husband and I went to Jolly's Boat House today for lunch to celebrate years of marriage and my birthday. Both our meals was fantastic and gave our taste buds a real thrill. Lovely atmosphere, very welcoming and the view from the window...was great. The customer service was great and Daniel was fantastic. Well done to all and especially congrats to the Chef.
