Over priced and mediocre food

susan_b, Dec 2025

Food was meh at best Over priced. Worse were people standing in the aisles when waiters were trying to serve food - so rude. Music was loud Views along the Thames at night were good.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the night-time views along the Thames, but we’re very sorry that several parts of your experience fell short. We apologise that the food did not meet your expectations and that you felt it did not offer good value. Your comments have been passed on to our culinary team as we continually work to improve both quality and consistency. We also understand how frustrating it can be when aisles become crowded, especially while our staff are serving. This is not the standard of organisation we aim for, and we will be reviewing our guest flow and staffing procedures to ensure a smoother, more considerate experience. Regarding the music volume, we appreciate you letting us know. We aim to create an enjoyable atmosphere for all guests, and we will reassess volume levels to strike a better balance. Thank you again for your feedback, it helps us make meaningful improvements. We hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back for a much better experience in the future. Kind regards. City Cruises.
