Everything was perfect! The place, the staff, the FOOD!!! We’ve received positive comments from the guests as well, and some of them are also planning to hold their party at Waterway. The staff were polite and very accommodating, too.

Nothing. All was perfect.

Great staff, very accommodating and helpful throughout our event! Beautifully decorated venue. Thoughtful care taken with guests. Thank you for a lovely time!

Some confusion over menus when organising (we thought we could have non-Christmas given our event was in November) but otherwise no negatives!

I was very pleased with the Manager who organised my party and the staff on the day were very good, attentive and polite. I would recommend this place and would consider booking here again.
