Unbelievable service. All of the crew extremely welcoming and big SHOUT OUT to ALL the bartenders! Great crew even better boat trip. If you’re looking to book for a great time, there’s no where else in Philly that comes close. 10/10 experience!

Was here on 7/20/25 for their Sunday Brunch cruise. It was my friend's birthday and we loved it!!!! Food was amazing, the atmosphere was amazing! Everyone was pleasant and polite. Still enjoyable even though it rained but it eventually cleared up again. My bday friend loved it!!! We are already making plans to come back!!!

I wouldn’t recommend this experience. The boat ride was enjoyable. The dj saved everything. The music was on point. We danced and enjoyed our time. However there lacked some consistency in what was advertised. My first issue was there were kids allowed on the brunch tour. When I plan adult things, the last thing I want to see are kids. At one point, one of the kids was screaming crying for a good amount of time. I was annoyed. The boat wasn’t crowded so Im guessing the company got desperate for attendance but that was not ok. Also we didn’t depart on time. Not sure what the delay was for but we left 15 minutes late and nothing was mentioned about it. The dress code stated in the faqs were not enforced. If we can wear whatever, say that but don’t put “Sundays best” and ppl are on the boat in crocs and keds. The AC and fans made the heat tolerable but it was a sweat box. I could see why ppl enjoyed their time here, its really about who you come with that makes this experience but the brunch was comparable to a 3 star hotel buffet breakfast and Im good on that.

First time passenger. Went for Sunday Brunch Buffet. Good food and music. Nice relaxing ride on the river. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Men's room was pretty decent. Better than those poopdecks you'd find at many corner bars and small restaurants.
