The Boathouse

The Boathouse sits on the banks of the Maribyrnong River; a little oasis of gum trees, sloping grass banks, old river terraces, today it belies its industrial past.

Its charming Australian decor features natural radial cut weather boards, a stone fire place, tin sidings, a polished concrete floor and a ceiling of exposed straw. It seems to fit right in - so well in fact it could have been here for years. Once you have made yourself comfortable you'll never want to leave! Oh, and you might notice a large canoe hanging from the roof...

The Boathouse offers the best of everything: coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks and even a playground for the kids so the whole family can enjoy the best family restaurant.

The Boathouse has received awards for the best pizza in Melbourne and our Italian chef, Angelo, creates beautiful menus for you to enjoy. Why not bring your family and try our evening Winter Warmers at the best family restaurant on the river.

The Boathouse can also cater for every occasion be it weddings, social functions or corporate events.

Come and join us by the river for a casual, relaxed and warm experience.

See you at one of Melbourne's best cafes soon...
