My wife and I have been holidaying in Penang since 1974 and, over the years, have possibly eaten in every restaurant on the Batu Ferringhi "strip". Many years ago we discovered The Boatman with its excellent food, very reasonable prices and extremely friendly staff. They offer a wide variety of dishes both local and Western and this restaurant has become a home from home for many of the regular visitors to Penang from UK and Australia, which speaks for itself. The restaurant is located on the beach side of the road about halfway between the Park Royal Hotel and The Hard Rock Hotel (ex Casuarina Beach Hotel).
