Came here for a glass of wine, a snack and to check out the live jazz. I don't know much about jazz myself but my partner does and says the band was a very talented. As always, enjoyed my glass of the Indaba Merlot and split a really yummy apple tart. We love it hear and will definitely be back :)

Keep in mind, Bateau is quaint - as small as someone's living room - so you can see every table from the door. I stood at the front for several minutes and was not greeted. I felt awkward, as if I wasn't supposed to be there. Several minutes later, my friends joined me and then we were greeted and asked to sit at the bar-type area by the door while we a waited. A half hour passed. Finally, because we asked, someone came to ta...
