We enjoyed our cruise and the staff were very friendly and attentive. The free flowing drinks were appreciated and the food looked delicious. Unfortunately, the ‘hot food’ was actually cold, and detracted from the experience. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the sweets section and still had a great cruise.
Great value, excellent food with Gluten free being extremely well catered for, which was a surprise.
Thank you for your lovely review Laurier! 🥂 We’re so glad you enjoyed the excellent food and found the Bottomless Brunch to be great value. It’s wonderful to hear our gluten free options were such a pleasant surprise too! 🍽️✨ We hope to welcome you aboard again soon. 🚢
Had a great afternoon cruising on the Yarra. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were very attentive and made sure your glass was never empty. We were celebrating my partners birthday, so they even organised a special cupcake with candle, a lovely surprise. I would definitely recommend doing the brunch cruise.

What an absolutely fantastic afternoon! The food was delicious, the drinks kept coming, and the service was outstanding. A special shout-out to Kevin, who made sure no one's drink was ever empty, and Captain PJ, who kept us cruising smoothly all day.

Relaxing, friendly staff. Food was served quickly along with drink and drinks were bottomless. Food was all cold which was a bit of a let down. Could've provided a range of hot and cold foods.
A great afternoon cruising on the Yarra, with plenty of food and drinks for two hours.

The crew was so attentive from the moment you board, making you feel welcome quickly. As soon as you sit down, they offered you a drink to start with and then food comes in. Waiters were great, making recommendations, clearing tables, checking on guests and having chats, in particular Celia. We enquired vegetarian options in advance, so they brought all veggie items to our table without us asking for it. That was the extra mile for us. The brunch is not botomless however the food is plenty, with good variety of savoury and sweet, but the drinks are, and the staff is constantly offering you top ups or new drinks. They day was sunny, so we enjoyed it even more. You can go upstairs for the view, and also to smoke. Don't worry if you don't get a window table! The views are perfect anywhere in the boat. We found the experience ideal for special ocassions or to treat yourself with something different. Definetely recommend! Service, atmosphere and food 5/5. As someone who has been working in events and hospitality for several years, I would like to congratulate the crew, as your service and predisposition to make guests feel welcome was impecable! Thank you! Vanesa and James.

We really appreciate your kind words about the team’s hospitality, especially coming from someone with experience in the industry. Feedback like this means a great deal to our crew and helps reinforce the care they put into every sailing! 🙌 We’re glad the sunny weather topped off your experience ☀️ and that you were able to enjoy the views from all areas of the boat! 🌊 It’s wonderful to hear you’d recommend us for special occasions or a unique treat and we hope to welcome you both back on board again soon for another memorable cruise! 🥂
I took my twin friends on the brunch cruise as a surprise for their birthday. Our waiters Adrian and Rhett were so much fun, professional, and accommodating :) There was a lot of food and the drinks were great. The cruise was very relaxing and picturesque. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants something a bit different!
