boats - based on a true story

the only bar and pub in elliot's beach. classy place, and it's affordable. this is themed as a boat (as it is called). there is a separate smoking place so it won't be of any disturbance for the people drinking. the best part is that only classy people come here so there is no hassle. the food is brilliant. the place is very neatly maintained. they host parties at different parts of the night which makes it so convenient for people who can't stay out late. there is precisely no parking space and no dance floor. it gives you a perfect view of thebeachwhich is so enjoyable at nights❤️.
p.s. they don't allow stag! if you are a guy and your wanna go in.... don't forget to bring someone with you

just a neighbourhood club to chill at! good atmosphere and amazing view of our favourite elliot’sbeach
food is good. cost of the drinks are decent as well!

a corner view of thebeachif you're a smoker or don't mind sitting in a non-ac section.
i was alone and was asked to sit at the bar. they played elvis for a long time...which of course i loved.
i ordered a carbonara. was really well made. though the pasta was way too thick.
will visit again with people to try more of their stuff.

great place to hang out with friends.beachview is just perfect to light up the evening.
they offer nice combos: 2 starters+ main course + dessert+ drink for 399/-
got 1 combo, chicken skewers and calamari fries
chicken skewers - were a lil sweet in taste. being a hot head i didn't enjoy it much.
calamari fries- served with french fries and mayo.
these rings of love were crispy to the max. perfect side.

nice cozy place to have contiental food. they don’t serve indian food so make up your mind before visiting them. options are limited but the food to very good in taste. it’s next to the besant nagarbeachwhich is a great hangout place in chennai, so the location is quite good.

loved thebeachview and ambience. the foods are really gud ordered- fries, calamari, chicken fried momos. cocktail-the sexy monica. shots- painkiller, dirty martini. it was my first tym trying cocktail really enjoyed.and loved the that momos😍 didn't shared with anyone finished it by my self 😁

food menu could be better. limited choices on mains and non alcoholic beverages. we mostly tried starters. everything was good enough, nothing extraordinary though. (cheesey fries weren't good) good service and ambience. liked thebeachview.
alcohol was slightly expensive. overall, not a bad experience. 👍 happy with the 20% off due to zomato pro.

my favorite hangout place right next to the beach

head over with friends, and keep drinking. decently priced alcohol with a cozy ambience , and a view of the most happeningbeachin chennai.

the started can be much better, but they serve their purpose as good sides for drinking so no complaints.

this is an amazing place to hang out. perfect weekend spot , amazing food and drinks. the prices are reasonable! spend your evening at thebeachand head to boats. 🤘🏼

wonderful casual bar by the beach. good draught beer. food is worth the money. they have an outdoor area as well. courteous staff and good service. great view of the entirebeachroad!

a good resto bar in the neighborhood to chill. drinks are not very expensive. very close to the elliotsbeachwith a decent ambience and good food.

good place to hangout with friends. a little small for a restobar, and does not fully do justice to the elliotsbeachview. but, all in all, decent place to spend an evening.

boats - located just at besant nagarbeachis a good place to go for drinks and food 😃

detailed review-
had a great experience here last week when i visited with my friend 😊
tried a lot of dishes from the food menu and everything was delicious 🤤
they have 2 seating sections- the air conditioned section with a common table at the centre where my friend and i sat, sharing the table for 3-4 other groups of guests
and the non ac section - basically for smoking...
they do have tv screen screening the icc world cup matches 👍🏼

starting with the crispy calamari which is served with french fries 😍 so yummy 👌 loved it! only concern was that it was served cold... otherwise a perfect dish 💕

bacon wrapped sausages - again so yummy 👌 especially the sauce that was drizzled on top ❤️

tandoori hariyali prawns - yummy juicy small- medium sized prawns cooked in the tandoor in green masala 😬 was delicious too 👍🏼

in mains we had the indian salmon which was well done but i found the quantity less... loved the sautéed veggies served in the dish 😍

in drinks we tried beer, and 3 cocktails...
indian summer was good 👍🏼
sexy monica - vodka drink - similar to cosmo
another ginger based drink i don’t remember the name...

service was a bit slow...
they shut at around 10.30pm

the place is slightly pricier than what i was expecting... our total bill was around 4000
their system wasn’t working and thus they gave us a paper bill... they did mail me the actual bill later 👍🏼

if you are looking for some restaurant where you want to get some good food and also good cocktail u can try this place. with perfect view but if you some that place would be good
heart of besant nagarbeachelliots

cocktail they serve was okay
