Open 7 days a week and run by the dynamic duo of Sandie and the irrepressible Tony, The Boathouse Café at Beeston Marina is the perfect spot to rest and refuel, whether you're navigating the River Trent or enjoying a walk or cycle along its scenic banks.

​

Start your day with a hearty full breakfast while overlooking the tranquil River Trent from the patio, or take shelter from the weather inside. The Boathouse Café's menu is designed to satisfy every taste and dietary requirement, so you won’t leave disappointed.

​

For those with a sweet tooth, Sarah’s famous homemade gluten-free scones and cakes are an absolute must-try, perfectly paired with a mug of tea.

It's no surprise this is one of Nottingham’s best-loved cafés, and it's a favorite among local cyclists—just try finding a Nottinghamshire-based cyclist who hasn’t sampled its delights!

​

The café also features Tony’s collection of Beeston’s best photographs, including a wonderful exhibit of Beeston Fields School photos from the 1940s onward, ideal for viewing while enjoying your refreshments.

​

With its picturesque location, The Boathouse Café is the ideal stop for:

​

• Walking groups

• Cycling groups

• River cruises

• Fishing matches

• Running clubs

• SUP (Stand-up Paddleboarding) groups

• Canoeing parties

• ​

If you’re planning a rest stop or a meeting point by the river, or simply want to enjoy Tony’s photography, feel free to get in touch with the café directly. Please note that The Boathouse Café operates independently from the marina.
