Welcome to the Allen Gardiner River Cruise Restaurant, where unforgettable moments await. Whether you choose breakfast, lunch, supper, or dinner, our intimate cruises for up to 12 passengers promise a delightful experience that will stay with you forever.

Embark on an enchanting journey along the serene River Orwell, where you’ll savour scrumptious, freshly prepared food and drinks while enjoying the skipper’s captivating commentary. Our cruises depart from Fox’s Marina, glide under the majestic Orwell Bridge, and journey toward the bustling Port of Felixstowe and historic Harwich.

In the summer months, bask in the sunshine on our spacious deck, and during the winter, enjoy the warmth and cosiness of our wood-burning stove in the elegant saloon. We accommodate special dietary requirements with prior notice, ensuring everyone can indulge in our culinary delights.

Our fully stocked bar and thoughtfully curated wine list, featuring exclusive South African wines, will complement your meal perfectly. The Allen Gardiner operates all year round (except on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year's Day), offering both exclusive private charters and individual bookings.
