Canal Boat Lounge: A Dive Bar Worth Diving Into

We would like to focus your attention on the Canal Boat Lounge – an unassuming dive bar that has quickly become a local favorite. Nestled not too far off the trail, it offers the perfect haven for a post-paddling retreat or just a spontaneous day out.

Why We Love It:

Location & Atmosphere: There’s nothing like the calming view of the river after an invigorating paddle. And when paired with a delightful deck, especially on warm sunny days, the experience becomes unbeatable. The previous owner, along with his son who now takes the mantle, have created a welcoming atmosphere, treating both old patrons and new guests with courteous warmth.

Mouth-Watering Menu: The Canal Boat Lounge may be a dive bar, but it doesn’t dive short on its culinary offerings. Their chicken wings paired with a bucket of beer have been highly recommended. If you’re in the mood for something slightly heftier, their spicy boneless pork chops and sweet potato fries are consistently delicious and very well-priced. For those with a penchant for a meaty delight, the burgers too have received rave reviews.

A Pour for Every Palate: With an impressive array of beers on tap, finding the right brew to complement your meal is a breeze. The friendly faces behind the bar make sure of that!

A Touch of Humor: On your visit, don’t forget to check out the dad jokes adorning the bathroom doors. They’re sure to add a chuckle to your day.

Amenities Galore:

• Bar Service
• Late-night Openings
• Lunch and Dinner Service
• Outdoor Dining

Final Thoughts: The Canal Boat Lounge isn’t just another dive bar. With its great food, relaxed vibe, friendly service, and the bonus of a beautiful view from the outdoor patio, it’s a dive worth taking. So the next time you’re in the vicinity or looking for a memorable outing, do give it a try. As many have echoed: once you visit, you’d definitely want to eat here again.
