This waterfront dining establishment operates from a converted Oxford college barge moored along Richmond's Thames riverside, serving Australian-inspired cuisine with fire-cooked specialties. The venue features twin clay ovens for preparing fresh fish and sharing steaks, alongside a comprehensive menu covering breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner service. Multiple dining areas include heated indoor restaurant spaces, a sunset terrace for bookings, and a casual summer terrace operating on a walk-in basis. Dog owners can bring their pets to enjoy the outdoor terrace areas throughout operating hours, though animals are not permitted inside the boat itself. The establishment accommodates both advance reservations for up to six guests and walk-in diners, particularly during favorable weather when the terrace spaces provide Thames views and outdoor dining options. The venue operates seven days weekly with extended hours Thursday through Saturday, offering everything from morning coffee service to evening cocktails and seasonal small plates prepared over open fire cooking methods.
