We popped aboard for a quick drink – a quirky place with some old amusement arcade machines (not all on / working?) Kept the kids amused either way.We sat up top and admired the view, which is nice if the weather is on your side (some of it is covered).

As locals we visit the Cafe on Board regularly throughout spring and summer, loving the airy outdoor seating on the boat overlooking the estuary and Tarka Trail, across glittering waters, with seagulls flying above. It's a little bit of heaven: good food cooked perfectly, a quirky setting, particularly good mocha and alcoholic treats behind the bar. Dog friendly too – we always enjoy talking to people's dogs ;)

A very unique cafe. Cross the gang plank to board the barge. Inside is seating and tables. Order drinks and food from the counter. Very extensive food menu available. Premises are licenced to sell alcoholic drinks. More seating and tables on the main deck of the barge. This gives you great views of the surrounding area including from the old bridge to the new bridge and beyond. Paid Parking is available in the main bank end car park. There are toilets inside. The cafe sometimes opens in the evenings for special events. Great place to visit.
