    Two starts for the views and the friendly staff. Left 30min late because the DJ was late. No pre set of music prepared and basically playing songs on people requests. The light buffet was ok, but there were rules to be served were not clear, which lead to an awkward moment with a stressed staff. Also not clear the cocktails were pre-mixed cans.

    Reply from London's ORIGINAL Christmas Boat Party

    Hi Ricardo, thank you for your review. Great to hear you thought the boat, food, staff and views were all good. Sorry about the late departure. Our DJ was delayed on the tube. We did connect our backup playlist but we are restricted to how loud we can play music, whilst waiting at the pier. We do offer our own cocktails as well as the more familiar pre-canned options. Looking through the till transactions, both options were being purchased throughout the evening.
