a village Pub and Kitchen
The Boat Inn was built at the same time as the Staffs and Worcs Canal in 1779 and is one of the old ‘Gateways’ to the Village of Penkridge,
for many years it was the first or last stopping point, as locals and visitors travelled along the Cannock Road.
The Boat Inn has been a place to eat and drink for almost 250 years
– and we want to continue in this tradition, to give customers a rewarding experience; great beers, wines and spirits, excellent food and service in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
A traditional pub and kitchen that sits next to the Staffordshire and Worcestershire canal in the village of Penkridge. During the summer it’s perfect place to relax with a glass of your favorite tipple, accompanied by a plate of freshly prepared, home cooked food as you watch the narrowboats slowly navigate the lock and bridge No86
Our friendly, attentive staff are waiting to greet you with a smile to make sure you you have an enjoyable eating and drinking experience.
A intimate surrounding for Birthday Parties, Wedding Receptions and Christenings
Home cooked, fresh from our kitchen, lovingly prepared food, everyday.

We’re very proud of our burgers at The Boat so we’ve dedicated Tuesday evening to show off what we can do.

Don’t just settle for mouth watering pictures, make The Boat Inn on a Tuesday your destination
CURRY NIGHT

The return of an old favourite, Curry night at The Boat has always been popular,
Grill Night
Thursday
The most popular of our theme nights is undoubtedly Grill Night on a Thursday We offer a choice of meats and fish cooked to your liking and served with a full garnish with either – a pint, glass of wine or soft drink – or for 2 with a bottle of wine. A really popular night so would advise booking a table especially throughout the summer months as we do get extremely busy

I had my daughters christening reception held at the Boat yesterday and we were ever so pleased with the service organising the Food and times throughout the build up. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it, the staff were helpful and friendly. Its a clean and tidy pub with a lovely atmosphere and in a pretty location. I would definitely recommend having a function here or just to have a drink and a meal.
