While nothing was *bad*, for the prices the Boatshed charges, it really isn't up to scratch.

Service was amateur, some cutlery was cleared after the entree and not replaced, 1 of our meals took significantly longer to appear than the others, we asked for a second bottle of table water towards the end of the meal which never appeared. Finally, when we wanted to split the bill at the end of the meal the girl at the counter seemed clueless and couldn't break it down for us.

Some will say I'm being picky but I don't think there is ever an excuse for poor service, especially not when you're paying $30 for a main.
