Just a note to say thank you to Hobbs of Henley for what turned out to be a very successful and most enjoyable lunch cruise for our celebration party on the Hibernia yesterday. Particular thanks go to Steve, James and Kay for their efforts in keeping us safe and well lubricated - what good people you have! And to the two catering girls, whose names I, regrettably, can't remember - they kept us well nourished and were always extremely attentive. I hope you will be able to pass on our sincere gratitude to them all.

Despite the weather not being at its best for us, the river was looking beautiful and it was evident that all our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves, showering us with compliments regarding the food and the wine. Frankly, we almost had to push them off the boat at the end.

Finally our thanks to you, Michelle, for your advice and assistance. It was a truly memorable day for the two of us. Well done Hobbs

Can I also complement you on your website. The links to companies like Pains – preferred suppliers – is immensely useful when planning an event. I was also invited to a tasting by Rhubarb to ensure that everything will be perfect on the day and the quality of their food was outstanding. The quality of your event partners also reflects on yourselves and is making me feel my event is going to be something very special. Plus Michelle has been very helpful with the planning of the fine detail of the evening – such as having the black tablecloths underneath the white ones – and saying that the staff are happy to get into the spirit of the occasion by wearing the Blues Bros hats and sunglasses.

Hobbs of Henley is a fabulous family owned and run business, which always goes out of its way to make its clients feel special and valued. Every time I have been on one of their boats I have a wonderful time, and have attended a number of events , all of which have been great! Suzy and Jonnie are both wonderful hosts and run the business with such professionalism and customer focus!! I would recommend this business to anyone looking for an experience on the River Thames never to be forgotten!

This is a long running family-run riverside business that is always looking to bring new experiences to its customers. The delight of a trip down the river can be to celebrate a special occasion - personal or national. They have taken the trouble to include trips as an education tool for children to learn more about the birds, creatures and habitats around the river. Whether tea, a buffet or a gourmet meal together with live music there is a cruise or short trip to suit both style and pocket. Henley-on Thames would not be half the attraction it is without this well- established modern business set in the Chilterns and operating on the River Thames

I loved the idea of their Christmas Santa cruises. We're just about to book our boat for Regatta from them - fourth year running!

'Hobbs gave us SUCH a great night out on July 9th, that I have been meaning to write to you and say a BIG THANK YOU to you all. Thanks to you for pulling the whole thing together - you do your job with efficiency and great style - it was great fun working with you to pull the evening together. Also to Alex and the boat crew who were just FAB on the night - very professional and totally in control. Excellent.

Also I must congratulate you on your choice of catering companies. All the guests commented on the excellent food, delicious salads and meat, and heavenly puddings.

I thought the White Garden did beautiful flowers - just beautiful - exactly as we had discussed over the phone. If you are speaking to either the caterers or White Garden flower team, please can you thank them very much for the exceedingly professional job they did for us.

Richard's summary at the end of his special evening was "That is the best way of spending money invented - we must do it again!!"

As a family we have had the pleasure of enjoying quite a few trips on the river and Hobbs have made all trips enjoyable from sailing our own small motor boat right up to the New Orleans. Thank you Hobbs

We recently held a Networking Evening on the New Orleans Paddle Steamer. Jonathan Hobbs and his crew were extremely helpful in organising the evening, and all our guests had a great time. If you want to hold a party or a company celebration the New Orleans offers something different. Taking a trip along the Thames is so relaxing with some great scenery.
