Welcome aboard the Lady Florence – Suffolk’s most unique River Cruise Restaurant.

Step into a world where fine dining meets gentle cruising. The Lady Florence offers Breakfast, Lunch, Supper, and Dinner Cruises for just twelve guests, creating an intimate and exclusive atmosphere as we glide along the stunning Rivers Alde and Ore from Orford. Unlike ordinary dining, our experience is dictated not by the tides, but by timeless Suffolk charm.

Operating all year round, Lady Florence promises something special in every season: bask in summer sunshine on deck with a chilled glass in hand, or snuggle up by our cosy coal fire in winter as the landscapes slip quietly by.

On board, you will enjoy freshly-prepared dishes crafted from the finest local produce, complemented by a well-curated wine list, including a handpicked selection of South African wines imported exclusively for Lady Florence. Special dietary needs? Simply let us know in advance, and we will make sure every guest feels at home.

Whether you book a private charter for a celebration or join a small group of fellow explorers, each voyage is a feast for the senses. As you savour your meal, we will share stories of Suffolk’s fascinating past, tales of castles, smugglers, and wartime secrets while the surrounding wildlife reveals itself in spoonbills, seals, or even the occasional porpoise.

From the quiet beauty of winter to the lively bustle of summer, the Lady Florence delivers far more than a meal. She offers an unforgettable Suffolk river trip — dining, scenery, and history all in one.
