Can see this is a lovely place when busy and the weather is favourable. We visited at 2pm and there was hardly anyone there so lacking in atmosphere. Various menu choices not available but the pizza we ordered was tasty.

We came here for a friend's 30th birthday last weekend. Staff were incredible and the atmosphere was unbeatable. We hired a section of the boat out and it was perfect. Afterwards we all went inside and there were great drinks on offer and great music playing. Well done Battersea Barge. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun, unique, boat-bar experience.
