    This is at the back of the Elante mall. It is one of my favourite place to visit in Chandigarh. One of the things I liked the most is their staff. They are professional and cooperative. The ambiance on the ground floor had a different vibe compare to the upper floor. I recommend you to sit there. Beers were amazing. I tried the Mango beer and absolutely loved it. The food is exceptional and flavourful. I ordered the fondue and it was impeccable. I definitely recommend it to try. There choice of music was not upto my taste, but was okay. Overall, I definitely recommend this place.

    Amazing ambience, catchy decor & lipsmacking house brewed beer. Blood orange- a must drink beer whenever you're at boathouse. I got the chance to visit them couple of times but Blood Orange was not on the menu sadly. Hope they bring it back. Good place to go with your gang.

    They have closed the lower deck and there is just one common area where you can sit. Ambience is quite weird. There's nothing happening over there. Even a normal restaurant would have better vibe than this place. Onion rings were cold when the waiter brought it to the table. Menu is highly limited. Not much options. The beer was a bit good in taste but it wasn't getting anyone higher. There were little cockroaches over the table. Place was quite empty. And for smoking, the waiter had to run here and there for 10 minutes to get me a lighter. That too he came back in 5 minutes to borrow back saying he got it from one of the worker in brewery. A big no no if you are looking for spending quality time.

    No doubt, they have a nice craft beer, but food was average, nothing great. They offer Sushi, pizza, pastas, burger & sandwiches along with Indian main course. This place is in Elante mall near gate 3. Cost for 2 - Rs 2000 with liquor Ease on pocket - 4/5 Parking - mall parking Service - 4/5 Ambiance - 3/5 Overall - must go if you are a beer lover Rated 3 star as not much impressed with ambiance & food quality.

    Boathouse has been one of the places which has consistently maintained top notch quality when it comes to serving great food to its customers. I had earlier visited this property twice before re visiting the place a few days ago for a quick lunch. My experience was really good. To begin with, the place has reopened with extensive social distancing measures taken. The tables are well sanitised, the staff’s temperature is regularly monitored. Speaking about my meal experience, I had started off with their Som tam salad, Egg tikka, Beetroot kebab and fire roasted veggie sandwich. Amongst the dishes, my personal favourite was their Egg tikka. This was something that I was going to try for the first time. The dish was really perfectly cooked with moderate range of spice mix used for marination. Served with some sliced masala onions and mint chutney, this is something not to be missed out. For mains, I had their Kadahi paneer, Butter chicken, Dal makhani and assorted bread basket. All the dishes had a very authentic taste and the best part was that the portion size of the meals was spot on. I had a really satisfying meal thanks to some brilliantly done curries. To end things on a sweet note, I had their cheeky chocolate monkey bomb. Single scoop of chocolate ice cream was coated with milk chocolate and was further topped with a hot chocolate ganache. Simply outstanding. Overall, I must say that they have maintained a great standard of food all throughout this time. One can head over to this place. Happy eating!!

    Very professional staff, we were attended to right away and recommended the items we wanted and quantities involved. Was disappointed that they didn’t have any of the craft beers only some light one’s, they tasted good but I had come in primarily for the craft dark beers. We ordered a vegetarian Biryani, Seafood Shepherds Pie, Sushi and Tiramisu, all of which were very well prepared and served. Food portions were satisfactory and prices too, décor is meticulously in the naval theme.

  • 5/5 shailender p. 3 years ago on Google
    I would like to rate this place as 5 Full Big Fat stars. This is large place to accomodate huge corporate parties if someone is thinking for it like me. Otherwise also, it is quite and soothing sitting I'd say. I visited this place with my three friends. I can say the food is good. Although it was not crowded. Since, we went on weekdays. But overall, the experience and aura of the place is great. It is not inside the mall, though in the elante premises you can say. Try exploring other places other than food area on 3rd floor of elante malls. There are many things which are indeed good available as an option at relatively cheaper prices. I'd recommended you this place and there Laguer beer and nachos as must.

    Boathouse is a multi cuisine restaurant newly opened in the courtyard of elante mall. With some incredible interiors it's one of its kind. The interiors are done in the best possible manner to represent some deep ocean feels the thick ropes and relaxed chairs give you a feel of being on a cruise. This place has a brewery and it serves some great beer too. Coming to food this place is has a mixed bag menu. They serve a combination of various cusines on the menu and i was lucky enough to try a couple of them. We had Drunken Potato Cakes ,Monetary Jack Rare Bit, Masala Keema Scotch Eggs ,Chicken Sautee, Aglo Olio Chicken Strips, Murgh malai chicken tikka,Stuffed Mushrooms,Veg kurkuri kebab, Veg Phulzari ,Fish tikka,Banana wrap steam fish. In the starters the best were murgh malai tikka and banana wrap steam fish. The salads i tasted were Som tam salad Tuna and potatoes salad and lastly Asian beer roast chicken salad and all were pretty good. Coming to main course i tried Chicken cordon blue, Veg/Non veg bibimbap which was way too good. Sole fish with colcannon potatoes which was really well cooked,Borracho Pollo, Veg thai curry Chicken haleem fondue was another speciality. They have great service and presentation. Absolutely loved it how they plate the dish. Desserts started with sinful sundae which was superb and i just loved it. Chocolate monkey bomb was another fascinating dessert. Apricot tiramisu was something unique for me. veg/non veg sushi platters were something i was surprised with. They tasted really good. Overall this place succeeded to impress me and is on the good list

    A great place with exquisite ambience and soothing music. The food tastes very good out there as I ordered a Pizza and a Burger which was top nodge. Overall recommendations from my side will be 4.5⭐ for food and 4.5 ⭐ for ambience and music. Staff was good and polite. Surely a must visit place when you go to Elante mall. It is opposite to the Volkswagen showroom ❤️

    I wish I could give them stars in minus. Visited here on 21st sept after reading mixed reviews. Total waste of money and time it was. Food - pathetic 1/10 (Ordered onion rings and corn & jalapeno ciggariloss) *In which there was no jalapeno* Ambience 2/10 (Was empty & only 1 waiter was taking orders from 2-3 tables) Hygiene - There were cockroaches roaming on the tables Veg Menu is really limited. You just have 4-5 options

    Good ambience and food quality was good. But if you want to enjoy music/dance then it's not good place to go.Dj guy and Floor's manager attitude was not good. They don't know how to speak with the customer.

    Aesthetic!! That's the word to describe this place.. It's a cool hangout destination and I would say a must visit if you want a chill vibe and have good classic Italian food. My personal recommendation would be Margherita pizza and Creamy fettuccino pasta

    Great food and even better beverages! Their home crafted stuff is fascinating. However, the music feels a bit to loud to chill and talk.

    Boathouse is the best brewery in Chandigarh, like their craft beers are amazing, and food too. They have the best Asian food options in Chandigarh. Everytime I get a bibimbap there, that tastes amazing. And the environment is always so welcoming, the stuffs are so well behaved. Love Boathouse!

  • 1/5 Harpreet S. 4 years ago on Google
    Worst experience. Service was really bad and management was rude. Yesterday I had visited with my seven+ friends at BoatHouse. We three had zomato gold subscriptions and we asked them to apply on bill but they refused it. Moreover, we have been to other places where I applied gold subscriptions and they didn’t argue. I don’t recommend to visit this place.

  • 2/5 Motorcycle D. 4 years ago on Google
    Seating and ambience is good. Beer taste is on downside as compared to The Great Bear sec 26. Prices are high and quantity is very less. Veg platter cost approx 800 and you get hardly 15 small pieces of different items. Chilly paneer cost over 400 and got 5 to 6 pieces of paneer. These can be ignored but beer quality and taste is not up to the mark. It was Tuesday, it was all empty, yet service was too slow, they took more than 40 min to serve veg platter. Another 40 min for pizza.

    This place has a really nice ambience. It has variety of seating. Also they have active serving groups. They food serving is literally very less in quantity. Other than that the food is nice and tastes and looks good. Drinking option is available here. They have many screens available for watching world cup series.

  • 1/5 Deepak S. 4 years ago on Google
    The worst manager dealing I ever faced. And moreover they say that go and rate us we don't care. This is the second time I have faced the issue . Food quality is worst. Quantity is worst.

  • 3/5 neha p. 4 years ago on Google
    It's on ground floor in the outdoors of elante near the vanity box. The decor of the place is like a boat, that's why the name. The ground floor staff is courteous. But first floor is not very well managed. Pasta is great. Garlic bread is yummy. Iced capuccino or cold coffee is good. Prices are fine. Not very crowded. Bar also on the 1st floor.

  • 3/5 Deepak S. 2 years ago on Google
    It's nice to relax, however the services are poor.... The majority of non-vegetarian options are available, but there aren't many vegetarian ones. They have a lot of work to do to improve their services.

  • 3/5 Khyati S. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food just the quality was bit compromised due to heavy crowd. But rest the food is good. And enjoyable environment.

  • 2/5 Swats Stay R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great vibe, no crowd . The place is based on a boat theme, which is great, its a huge place, almost bigger than all of those clubs/ pubs inside Elante Maal however it had zero crowd . If you are visiting, do try the crispy corn, its yummy. It’s essentially a brewery, so u can ask for a fresh tester, 3 beers were sampled , all good

  • 5/5 cmr C. 1 year ago on Google
    We went last night for birthday dinner, I called to book a table and I am glad I did because it was a Saturday. The service was wonderful and the food was amazing. We had dim sum to start followed by several different dishes and everything was gorgeous. As you enter the place, a magnificent setting, of luxuries of modernity welcome you. One gets a wonderful view of the workshop-like kitchen where the chefs were working. For those who do not book a table and are waiting, there is a cosy lounge with aged leather armchairs. You can enjoy a live band, clubbing as well as gaming. The restaurant offers services to single people, couples as well as families. The restaurant has an elegant appearance due to its unique design comprising of modern and antique art. The ambience in the restaurant is so relaxing. When it comes to menu, guests have a long list of options to suit their taste. The meals are freshly made from healthy organic ingredient grown by local farmers. If you want a taste of the local recipes, this is an excellent spot to get it. The chefs are skilled, passionate and creative. Restaurant is simply the best I have come across in a long time. It delivers an exquisite dining experience. You will surely enjoy its services. The price was very reasonable too, we were a party of 6 and it was just over Rs.850/- per head including the drinks. The atmosphere was great along with the decor, thank you for a lovely evening, we will be back soon!

  • 3/5 Rishabh J. 11 months ago on Google
    I had a corporate party, it's good with upto 50 seats. There are many things that you can like in this restro bar but what I didn't like the most is - Serving. For buffet dinner, they serve hot food once, they don't have inflammatory stoves or utensils that can keep the food hot. Service was good n timely on the table but I didn't like the buffet very much. Extra spicy food and colour coding for veg n non-veg plate wasn't there. Definitely table serving was definitely very good, but i was expecting food a little better. So 3 stars...may be i update the review on my next visit to boathouse.

  • 1/5 Shray D. 9 months ago on Google
    Horrible experience. Most of the dishes not available. Most of the fresh beers not available. A couple of available dishes were taking 25 mins. Asked them to cancel my order but refused. No service manners. Place was stinking of sewage water. Coupd not stay for more than 15 mins & walked out.

    Boat house elante, I went here for only one reason to click photograph with those neon light which says stop making sense . But this place took my heart with all wonderful arrangement specially the yellow sofas😍 This was the place where for the first time i had an oval shaped pizza 🍕 This place has really cool sitting area where we can cross our legs and sit to chill. Staff was really caring and polite 👍 Recommend

  • 4/5 NEETU A. 6 years ago on Google
    Boathouse is one huge, huge restaurant conceptualized in a way that would give you a feel you are on closed deck in Northern India. The music and overall ambiance is perfect to have a great evening. Their food menu is elaborated with various cuisines. The drinks looks promising too. Tried few of the dishes from their menu recommended by the staff and enjoyed them. Overall a decent experience. One should visit the restaurant and try on their delicacies when in and around the vicinity.

  • 5/5 manjot s. 5 years ago on Google
    This is the best place in tricity to have fresh beer or so called craft beer! Their beer taste is very good and if we talk about their food it is very good. Specially their ambience and interior is very good,after coming here we can chill with our friends and their staff is aslo very friendly

  • 1/5 jagmeet o. 3 years ago on Google
    Visited boathouse on 11.10.2020.I will call it the most pathetic place to visit.i will give zero rating fr courtesy and looking after the guest.There were two waiters on the entire first floor.Food was very spicy ,we ordered beetroot kebab which were very very spicy and the green chuttney served along with that was equally hot. Second order was fr non veg momos which were ok.Third was the drink green apple sour which had apple juice with black salt and a little lemon.Lastly it was non veg lasagna which had lots of salt but nothing to be called lasagna.The bar man calls himself to be the manager who was shabbily dressed up.There is nobody to hear ur greviance or to guide u.if u see the menu u will see the rate fr non veg lasagna is not mentioned.They charge according to there choice.I will never recommend this place to anyone.Highly priced with poor quality food.The place need to teach the waiters some basic etiquette.

    Boathouse is the most lively and spacious cafe in tricity located at elante and provides you with a wide variety in menu and the service is also being at top. In the most recent visit we have ordered the following: - verdure pizza - penne in arrabiata - corn and jalapeno rolls - corn and spinach dimsums - sinful hot chocolate fudge sundae The food was amazing and the best was dimsums and the ratings wouldbe as under: Food - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Price - ⭐⭐⭐ Service - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ambience - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I really enjoyed the visit and it is a must try place in tricity. I would really love to revisit the placeand try other options from their menu.

  • 3/5 Sushil J. 4 years ago on Google
    Good place good food The place is huge and food quality is okay too - most importantly the staff doesn't know anything about the menu, if you ask them about a particular dish be prepared to have a random answer or a Hindi translation of the name mentioned in the menu. Unattentive staff overall- the girl at the entry/welcome is only interested to chat and be on her phone all the time and just not bothered about the guests and one has to literally shout for assistance owing to the loud music they play. We were there for almost two hours and only one waiter was available to all tables and he was clearly overworked and unable to manage a smooth flow and on taking a tour of the place the other staff were seen busy in themselves and their respective phones. Though the food is decent and besides the waiter messing the orders/dishes i would still go back to the place but the entire experience of staff who are not bothered about their guests and instead sticking with their smartphones has left behind an experience i would clearly stay away from in future.

  • 4/5 Divyanshu G. 4 years ago on Google
    Went again and finally taster had 5 options. Ate Pasta and Chicken Starter, was able to relish both. Went again here. Lol to my surprise the brewery only had 3 options of craft beer. I dont know when they gonna improve. Food quality was good. But I wont be giving this place another try. Also the ground floor sitting lacks good ambience. And there was a party upstairs (thats my badluck and not there fault). But definitely thai place is not maintaining its class any longer. Ordered a jagerbomb but they were out of jagermeister. Lol its a kind of joke when a reputed bar is out of stock of a common liquor. Next is there were no complementary snacks served with the drinks. Had to ask for peanuts. Food was delicious had lasagna & lemon fish. Had to go for cocktails - long island iced tea their stringest one and popeye the sailor their lighest one. Drinks were good. No live music. The dj music wasnt good. Their microbrewery is good.
