Founded by the Mowat family in 2013, The Boatyard celebrated 10 delicious years in 2023. Located on the quayside, overlooking Peel marina, we are truly privileged to showcase local island ingredients and produce at their best in such a fine coastal setting. Whether it’s a seaside bite, candlelit dinner, or scrumptious Sunday roast lunch, we strive to give our guests a memorable dining experience.
Manx Menu Starter: Manx Queenie Pancake
The island is famous for its queenies and scallops caught from local boats and landed on the shores of the island. Whilst traditionally served pan fried with bacon and bread, we took all the best parts of the traditional dish and created our Manx Queenie pancake. Panfried queenies, bacon lardons, creamy white wine sauce, encased in a herb pancake dusted with Manx cheese and baked in the oven. Rustic, local and absolutely delicious. So much so, it’s been a customer favorite for over 15 years.
