About Us
At The Waltzing Matilda Boat, we are more than just a floating pizzeria and café. We are a family-run business driven by our passion for food and community. Founded by Chris and Paul, a dynamic father-son duo, our journey began with a shared love for boating and fine cuisine. With Chris's culinary expertise and Paul's passion for boat life, we set out to create a unique dining experience on the Macclesfield and Peak Forest Canal.
