🌧️ Is your weather app showing “absolutely not”? 🌧️

If your plans for today involved sunshine, we’ve got some disappointing news… 😅

The good news? The Boat Inn is warm, dry, serving great food, pouring great drinks, and doesn’t require wellies to enjoy it. 🍻🍔

So instead of staring out of the window wondering if summer has been cancelled, come and join us for a cosy afternoon.

We’re hoping he can make the rain disappear… but until then, he’ll be performing some incredible magic instead! 🎩✨
