The Boathouse is a riverside pub and dining venue at 32 Brewhouse Lane in Putney. Set over three floors near Putney Bridge, it looks across the Thames and has a terrace that is particularly appealing in warmer weather. The relaxed setting works for a drink, an everyday meal or a planned celebration.
The kitchen serves seasonal British pub food every day. Bar snacks and lighter plates sit alongside more substantial mains, with pies, burgers, fish and vegetable dishes represented in the wider style of the menu. Sunday roasts provide a distinct weekend focus with traditional accompaniments and gravy.
Different levels and bookable areas let the pub accommodate small gatherings, private events and meetings as well as ordinary table service. The riverside position also makes it a popular place around the annual Boat Race. Families and dog owners can use the venue without losing the feel of a food-led pub.
Young’s beer is joined by craft choices, wine, cocktails and seasonal spritzes. The terrace and upstairs spaces allow a visit to shift naturally from a meal to drinks overlooking the water. Guests with allergies or specific dietary requirements should consult the current menu and confirm ingredients with the team.
