We had a lovely trip. The food was great and plenty of it. Service was spot on and the entertainment really complimented the trip. Certainly recommend it as value for money and think it is a Brisbane 'must do'.

Yep another appalling experience review here. My husband and I spent $400 for the New Years Eve cruise on the very top deck. For this we assumed it would be a classy night out filled with bubbles, fine dining (even with the canapes that was on the menu) and quality entertainment to dance to.

Well what a joke it was. I am so upset that we paid the money for the disgusting night it was. We were served party pies, spring rolls, mini pizzas, samosas - and I am not talking about homemade here, I still can't believe they served this. The good thing is that there were around 4 choices of beer and wine. There was limited staff to wait on the patrons. A lovely man did his best to get around to some of the guests, but it just didn't cut it and the trays were left in the middle of the deck where you helped yourself.

Generally, all of the staff were really lovely and welcoming (the only +). I enjoy having a fun night out but at $200 a pop I didn't expect to be surrounded by young, loud hooligans - I thought it was going to be a classy event! The music was cheesy DJ tunes that even as a professional dancer I did not wish to dance to.

However, the view was lovely and my husband and I did our best to enjoy ourselves. I do not recommend wasting your money...get a city cat!

Response from Management:

I was looking for a place for dinner and Eatability's Facebook pop up recommending the Grove, Steak night $15. We sat outside in the bar (with 2 small kids) and had some beers. The steaks were cooked perfectly (medium rare) and we enjoyed it with a bottle of house wine. Will go back!
