    Unfortunately, the superyacht After Eight was docked alongside the restaurant blocking the normally great view! I suggest when making your reservation to phone to see whether there is an unobstructed view.
    Boom + BattenResponded today
    Hello Ken, thank you for your candid review. We apologise for any disappointment caused by the yacht parked beside the restaurant. We are very lucky to have our beautiful location in the International Marina along the inner harbour, however, this does mean we occasionally have yachts in our window. Unfortunately, this is out of our control, though we appreciate your suggestion to inquire about the view when making a reservation. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and share your feedback. We look forward to having you join us again soon.

    Great food, beautiful restaurant. Only issue was a massive yacht parked right outside blocking the view of the harbour. The yacht blocked the view for most of the restaurant. Part of the reason to go to B&B it's the view. Kind of disappointing

    Both the food and service were outstanding, but the evening was ruined by a DJ. The place was so loud none of my party could hear each other. Like eating dinner I an 80’s nightclub.

    We’re regulars at B&B, hoping the food will get better. Perhaps, the menu will change once in 6 months. The is bellow any acceptable level for such a respectable establishment, which is not ashamed bathing exhorting prices. Well perhaps, the high prices are for the view which is great. Today I had a low quality steak and salty chips. Congratulations, the restaurant did it again poor experience. Hopefully in the future more competition will become available to help B&B improve their ways.

    The food is nice and the dining room has a nice view. My problem with this restaurant is the way I am told that I am basically on a timer for dinner. As soon as I set foot in the door I am advised that I have only 2 hours to eat my meal. It’s offensive. We spend quite a lot on our meal here each time but that doesn’t seem to matter - the timer starts as soon as you walk in the door and they are very keen to tell you that as soon as you arrive. It’s not cool. I wish they wouldn’t do that.
    Boom + BattenResponded 1 day ago
    Hello Fiona, thank you for your review. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the food and the view. We sincerely apologize for any rush you feel while dining with us. We want all guests to feel welcome throughout the duration of their visit. As we have many guests wanting to dine with us, and only a limited number of tables to ensure excellent service, we have our table times in place to try to accommodate all our guests. These times are on our OpenTable booking page and based on the average dining time of our guests. However, we are truly sorry to hear of the unsavoury delivery of this. We will be sure to communicate with our host team the proper protocols for delivering time limits. Thank you for your feedback. We hope to welcome you back soon for a more enjoyable dining experience.
