The ultimate kick start to the weekend, end of week wind down or just an amazing excuse for some time on the river. The Sundowner cruise has been reinvented for summer 2020. Choose from a cruise with fizz and drinks or opt for a date with gourmet hot dogs. All cruises include a glass of fizz as you step aboard.
Friday Evening Sundowner Cruises
Our favourite time of day on the river, just as the day starts to cool a little and boats moor for the night, we head out for a relaxed cruise on the the Thames. With your own table, bar service and a glass of fizz to start the cruise the river will slide by as you relax with family and friends.
Watch out for our summer drinks offers, perfectly matched to a summer evening.

The Hot one! – Beef chilli and mature cheese

We have limited table and group sizes for this cruise as well as overall passenger numbers. Each table will be shielded from other guests by one of our brand new and bespoke boat screens, which give you a great view but also keep you safe.
We do ask you to wear a face covering for boarding the vessel or when moving around and you will find our crew both on deck, in the galley and waiting staff are wearing additional protective PPE in line with government requirements. We are all the same friendly smiling people and the food we know tastes even better having had to wait so many months to enjoy the delights of home made Afternon Tea on the Thames. You can find full details here.
