First thing - this place is only open in the summer because it’s on a boat and I’m guessing the heating is too expensive to run during the winter.
The food is really great, and there’s a lot of choice on the menu, especially for vegetarians. I’m not a vegetarian but I always go for the veggie dishes there because they’re so good.
The service is pretty good, but if you want something to nibble on before the main course then let them know that’s you’re intention, otherwise they’ll bring everything at the same time.
It’s a beautiful place to eat since it feels really open and you can see the gorgeous old houses and the river when you’re there.

The self-styled 'sausage king' (and who am I to disagree?), Packaert Butchers offers fantastic prices on lovely fresh meat. There opening hours are a little odd, in that it's sometimes closed on weekday mornings, and closes for staff holidays once in a while, but if you catch this little gem open, there are so many good deals, you could cook an absolute banquet for 5 people for under a tenner!

Lovely sausages made from pork, lamb, beef, venison and buffalo. At lunch times, you can get a double sausage sandwich for £2.50, which is a filling and tasty option, or you could go for an even better deal of two sausages, mash and gravy for just £3.50. Mmmmm! The service is nice and friendly too.

My, there are some nice people who spend their days cutting up flesh. This is how all delicatessens should be: very friendly, speedy service and fantastic produce. On one side of the shop is a large meat counter (I can't recommend the sausages and handmade burgers enough), and opposite is a counter rammed with delicious cheeses, olives, and tapas. The wall in between is shelved with great pickles, chutneys, vinegars, oils, and sauces.
On saturdays the shop barbecues their own burgers for £1.50, which is a great deal. Expect a queue!

Gardners Patch

Wonderful, brilliant, super fruit and veg at incredible prices. Fresh, too, unlike what you get at the supermarkets.
If Gloucester Road is to effectively stave off the rise and rise of faceless yet 'convenient' supermarkets, consumers need to realise just how good places like Gardners Patch really are. Yes, you will have to walk about ten doors up from Sainsbury's, or down from Tesco's, but believe me, it's worth it.
Some great deals in there lately have been beautifully ripe avocados for 25p each, a large bag of rocket for 65p, and juicy clementines for about 10p each. Wonderful, brilliant, super.
