JOHN RENNIE FOOD & WINE MENUS : LA CUISINE PAR EXCELLENCE
Welcome to the John Rennie where we offer an exciting moveable feast from cream teas to four course wedding banquets.
We know that good food and drink is key to the enjoyment and success of any event as well as the memories guests take away with them.
Quite simply it’s different with the “ John Rennie “ and the food and drink will be one of many highlights of your experience. Good ingredients, well prepared with interesting menus, beautifully presented with efficient unobtrusive service, these are our aims for you to experience.
Gourmet Delicious are the experienced outside caterers that together with Bath Narrowboats take care of you and your guests.
Gourmet Delicious is the sister company to Bath Narrowboats based at The Angelfish restaurant that organise, produce, supply & serve gourmet delicious modern european cuisine that you order for your event.
During the year the John Rennie caters for all occasions big or small using locally sourced fresh produce at various budgets . The boat's unique design offers both intimacy for sit-down dinner parties and space for full capacity buffets.
Do take time to read through all the menus to understand all the various options that are available to your party.
Some points to remember are as follows. Think about the time of year, length of trip and time of departure as some menus won’t suit some occasions; for example a breakfast is best in the morning not evening, hot starter soups are just what you want in the winter but not on a hot day and canapés & champagne are not enough to feed your guests on a four hour trip.
We do have various criteria for you to follow in the interests of economies of scale, minimum orders, special orders, times, choices & service. These are very important to us in order for us to maintain our high standards for your experience and service. Please do not be offended if we refuse a request and remember that you are hiring a private floating luxury restaurant.
There is a minimum order for cream teas of 25 people and 20 people for all other menus. We are happy to service your event with staff, crew, food and drink for less than 20 people BUT you will be charged the minimum number for whichever menus are ordered.
We have beautiful English oak table tops which do not require table cloths. We do provide cream coloured linen runners and linen napkins for the three course meals but not for the cream tea trips, tea time trips, plated platters and ploughmans. However, should you require linen tablecloths and linen napkins then there is an extra charge (please see 'table layout' for further details).
We are a 'Restaurant' and DO NOT accept food and drink to be brought on board by the customer.
We require final menu choices and numbers 60 hours ( 3 days ) before departure as all food is specially ordered, prepared and catered for. Remember, we need time to pre-order specialist produce, prepare and organise our staff so we cannot accept changes 48 hours ( 2 days ) prior to departure, the day before, the night before or on the day. You will be charged for the numbers booked.
If you do choose a two course or three course menu, please choose four starters, four main courses and depending on numbers the appropriate number of desserts and to remember it is very important that you make a record of what each guest will be eating, to let us know and to bring a copy on board. This does avoid any confusion on the day. It is useful to have table nameplates with the guests choices written on the back as well. All this adds to the smoothness of the service.
When choosing the roast meals, please choose only two of the four roast options.
We do have a large choice of desserts but we request you to restrict the choice to two for 20 - 29 people, three for 30 - 39 people and four for 40 - 56 people.
You are welcome to bring a cake on board BUT you will be charged £ 1.00 per person to cover the cost of plates, cutlery, napkins and washing. We do not allow chocolate cakes as these melt and cause a lot of mess. You will not be charged if you bring a cake if you order desserts.
We are not keen for cakes to be brought on because of health & hygiene reasons as we cannot guarantee the due diligence process of our strict food & safety standards. We also do not allow food to be taken off the boat for health & hygiene reasons.
We do carry a fully stocked bar that includes a small selection of house wines but we also have a much larger carefully selected wine list with many world class wines direct from vineyards from all over the world. We require 60 hours notice for selected wine orders off this list. We do not allow any wine, sparkling wine, champagne or spirits or soft drinks and water to be brought onto the boat and we reserve the right to either confiscate any brought on or charge the event organiser.
We sell bottled water on board in small and large bottles. We cannot serve glasses or carafes of water as the water on board is not treated and not drinkable.
Service is at the client's discretion, is greatly appreciated and is shared out with the Head chef, Sous chef, Waitresses, Bar staff and Skipper.
Lastly, as experienced chefs we offer a very personal service between the client and the boat ensuring good communication to ensure that you have a super experience. We are very approachable and endeavour to incorporate your requests as best as possible with regard to the menus. We hope these menus have whetted your appetite but the proof of the pudding is of course, in the eating. You are most welcome to visit The Angelfish Restaurant where we have different menus but you are able to taste a similar experience and enjoy the setting.
We look forward to welcoming you on board. Bon appetit . Bon voyage.

JOHN RENNIE AFTERNOON TEA MENU
In the early 19th century, in the midst of the industrial revolution and once the Kennet & Avon canal had been constructed, it was popular at the time to travel up the canal to Dundas aqueduct and Bradford on Avon from Sydney wharf in Bath as a special outing. A trip was highly esteemed in those days and you can recreate the glamour of yesteryear by choosing a cream tea, cakes and sandwiches. The choice is yours to make.

will be having so that we serve each table in turn. There will be a small delay between the first and last table but it
is important that each table is served together. Remember to bring your list of guests choices with you and to look

THREE COURSE LUNCH OR DINNER B : £ 29.70 per head
Even more choices of gastronomic delight to indulge you and your guests with.
This is a meal designed for a lunch or dinner party where guests are served at their tables. Whilst there is large selection,
we ask the organiser to choose four starters, four main courses and desserts ( according to numbers - 2 for 20 - 29, 3 for 30 - 39 and 4 for 40 - 56 ) for their party to choose from.
It is necessary for a pre-order. At the start of the trip, our waiters / waitresses will ask and note what each table
will be having so that we serve each table in turn. There will be a small delay between the first and last table but it
is important that each table is served together. Remember to bring your list of guests choices with you and to look
at the wine list. We carry a small selection of house wine on board but our larger wine list is off site and needs to be
pre - orderered. We serve a high quality Italian coffee LaVazza in cafetieres. These menus have been served for many
special occasions such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, retirement parties, corporate events such as launches,
seminars etc and other special occasions. This is ideal for a 4 hr trip or longer.
