Delicious sausage sandwich served by friendly staff in a beautiful canalside setting, a lovely setting, even on a windy day in January

Great service, food and handy for boaters.The ladies brought out our food after we sat down in the garden just outside. They even brought out cushions for us to sit on.

Instant coffee for the price of barista coffee.Underwhelming full English breakfast.Would not recommend.

Visiting the Gongoozlers Rest to sit down with old friend for a hot cup of coffee and a bacon sandwich, after travelling more than 20 miles only to find, no indoor seating available, only wet, damp seating outside! This is not what I envisaged meeting up with an old friend after a long time. There was no indication on their website that indoor seating was not available. Highly disappointed.

Lovely stop for lunch. By the canal, picnic tables and chairs. Friendly staff. Had really nice bloomer bread toasties with potato slices. Fresh out of the oven bread and butter pudding with clotted cream. Wow yum. Definitely recommend and a nice little walk around the marina.

I had a lovely English breakfast that I thoroughly enjoyed. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We had a great chat about canals and boating. Well what else is there to do for a gongoozler apart from have a rest, eat breakfast and drink coffee. I will return.

Fantastic experience and food. Friendly and enthusiastic staff, it was worth the 40 mile drive to go there. 3rd time we’ve been and does not disappoint. Food extremely well priced, not like some places that become well known and then increase prices exponentially, with big and tasty servings. Looking forward to going again soon.

I love this place, great food and a relaxing environment. We saw a Robin and listened to the relaxing sounds of birdsong

Lovely little cafe boat on the Grand Union Canal, Braunston. Inside tables for two and outside tables too, for nicer weather.Breakfast was delicious, would highly recommend the potato scallops!Really friendly staff and nice chatty atmosphere on board.

Over ten minutes for two cups of coffee, and the lady in charge unfortunately has no manners. Definitely giving this one a miss next time.
