The Best London Bars On A Boat

There's nothing more relaxing than a jolly on the river, and even if you're more of a sipper than a sailor, boats still have their uses - particularly the ones that have been converted into food and drink spots. Head down to the Thames or our city's canals and you'll find some of the best floating bars in London; from quirky brunch spots to beer cruises and chilled sun decks.

The Silent Disco Boat

Home to Silent Sounds, this is one of our top choices for London boat trips with drinks. Make your way to Tower Millennium Pier, where the floating silent disco will take you on a voyage past iconic landmarks, with a banging soundtrack to top it all off.

London Craft Cruises

For boat drinks on the Thames, The London Craft Beer Cruise is a great pick. Head to their events for delicious fare, plenty of tipples and sommeliers, so they can teach you a thing or two about your fave booze. Views are included too, of course.

Tamesis Dock

For a bar on a boat in London, check out Tamesis Dock. With a tasty food menu, a great selection of beers, wines and cocktails, and ukulele jam sessions, this cool space is perfect for sunshine chilling or winter snuggling. Topping it off? Crackin' views over the Thames.

Peggy Jean

Peggy Jean lets you dine on a lovingly restored Oxford barge, granting views of the Thames and Richmond Bridge. For a floating brunch packed with stacks of pancakes, fry-ups and bottomless brekkie cocktails, there's no better place.
