Now closed for winter. Reopening again in the spring!

I opened the boat cafe in spring 2021 to fill a creative post-lockdown black hole and passion for cooking. It has been an exciting and rewarding project, connecting locals and providing a tranquil space for people to sit and enjoy the beautiful riverside in the village of Sutton Courtenay, near Abingdon.

The boat itself is called Endurance after Shackleton’s famous vessel. I am a distant relative and thought it would be a fun nod to the great Sir Ernest (just so long as the boat doesn’t meet the same watery end...!). https://metro.co.uk/2022/09/29/sir-ernest-shackletons-great-great-niece-resurrects-endurance-17470047/

I hope to see you at the cafe soon!
