Thanks guys for a top night! We headed over from the Sutherland Shire and it was definitely worth it. We attended a 21st and it was the perfect venue. You have done a great job on the renovation, looks great. The food was nice and I was very impressed with the DJ's selection of music. We danced all night. I would recommend you to others. Hopefully we'll be back.

ETA: I was a bit disappointed that we had to pay $25 cover charge each, and then we were told the bar was closing early and we had to leave because we were the only 3 on it. I also didn't love the cocktails. The idea is super unique. It wasn't as busy when we came but the drinks were decent and the DJ was sick. Would love to see this place pumping

We had a great afternoon yesterday on The River Boat Bar celebrating Christmas. Cocktails, Grazing and Pizzas were awesome. Thanks for a relaxing time, with great music.

This is by far the best new little hot spot in Penrith. Had a great day catching up with old friends drinking cocktails watching the sun go down. That prawn cocktail and grazing platter were delicious. Cocktails are and food are not over priced. I will be recommending this venue to my friends family and colleagues and we will definitely be attending again soon. The staff are friendly and went out of their way to make our experience memorable. Thank you Carol for reaching out and letting us know about this little gem 💎 Who would have thought we would have this right at our doorstep and not have to travel into the city to be surrounded by other boats.
