The location is exceptional.. getting there for a 530p.m. start is good as you get day/sunset and night views. We had finger food and it was good. However service, not impressed. As the Raft knows the number of people attending, they should ideally have enough staff on hand on the night. We had an event with 40 people. Drinks were not cleared at all through the night.. glasses and food kept piling up. The DJ had a great selection of songs but did not know how to mix unfortunately so the song and genre would suddenly change or he would play just a minute of a.great song and then change it! Quite frustrating... I would still recommend you visit. Its a one of a kind venue.. so manage expectations...I hope they improve their service and music.
We had a lovely night and everything was great. We got the tender over before sunset and the timing was perfect. We got to watch the changing pink skies and all the lights come on in the city. The food was good value and yummy. The acoustic music was brilliant and created such a nice atmosphere. The staff and service was good too.
Cool experience needing to take a shuttle to arrive! Definitely recommend to try once. We did the $70 food and wine bottle menu for two, the Shiraz wine we picked was delicious and there was live music playing on the Friday Night we had our reservation which was great. The package's food was not what we expected, it had four dishes but they came all loaded up on the one plate and small servings of everything, we got a huge heap of rocket salad. If you bk to come for dinner with this deal, you will probably end up ordering more food to feed you from the bar like we did, I got us the Mexican bowl and chips to share. The service was fantastic, the man who took our drink order at the table was a lot of fun and had great energy and everyone was spoke to from the shuttle and ordering at the bar was so friendly.
What a fantastic venue. Everyone on board has already prepaid the evening. Enjoyable boat ride to the venue. First impressions were fantastic the staff friendly helpful amenities were also clean and spacious. Would definitely put this place on the visit list again and again.
My fiancé and I had a wonderful night on the raft with the wines on the water package. Staff were absolutely lovely and provided efficient and friendly service. Nice quality wine and a tasty share plate. You can order additional food which is all very reasonable priced. We ordered 1 additional dish and between that, the share plate and our drinks, we were full. Everything from start to finish was great. The acoustic music was wonderful and created such a nice atmosphere. Very romantic evening overall.
