The food was good and not too expensive but some of the staff could have done with a smiling course. The ship itself could do with a paint and does not look inviting from the outside, maybe that is why it was quiet. The views from the deck are amazing but again the deck could do with a bit of...

Staff were rude, food was ok for price/setting. Staff seemed disorganised & were really unfriendly. Ruins the atmosphere in the place & made us feel unwelcome.

Decided to go here to celebrate our anniversary. The food was really nice, nothing too fancy, just good honest cooking, decent portions and at a really reasonable price. Afterwards we went down to the big bar on the main deck for cocktails and music. Great choice, friendly staff and fantastic reggae - we were in our element! Will definitely come... More

Having walked along the banks of the canal looking at all the available eateries we noticed the ship moored and assumed it would be expensive but to our surprise the menu displayed offered two courses for less than £10. We entered the restaurant that was warm and inviting and were shown upatairs to the restaurant area, this was beautifully laid... More

Terrible doesn't even begin to describe our horrendous experience last night on CRUZ. Visited last night with another couple. Table booked for a meal early evening. The place was deserted so we imagined that once we had ordered out meal it would be served promptly ... not the case!! No-one, and I mean no-one seems to be vaguely aware of... More

I'm surprised at all the negative reviews here. We went for lunch using a voucher giving more than 50% off, so weren't expecting much, but were pleasantly surprised. From the outside, it's not very inviting and could definitely do with a revamp, but inside seemed fairly cosy by comparison. The food was very reasonably priced, plentiful, didn't take that long...

We were staying at hotel close to this bar/restaurant on a lovely sunny evening. We went for a couple of drinks and really liked it. The drinks were really good value for money and service was very good. Must admit we didn't eat - you could see the rubbish outside the kitchen from where we were sitting which was a... More

What a wasted of an amazing location and what could potentially be an awesome restaurant. I went to enjoy my lunch sitting on the top deck of the boat today. There was no one else eating but I thought this would mean getting my meal would be quick. I asked how long it would take to prepare lunch and was... More

What a great idea.  And what a terrible waste of it.  I think the first issue with Cruz is that it has no idea what it is supposed to be. Is it a fine dining restaurant?  A "booze cruise" without the cruise?  A local bar?  Or a waterside cafe?  Unfortunately, like many places which try to be all things to all... More
