Seven years after the original Boatyard Restaurant’s award winning success, comes a redesigned space to reflect a more sophisticated, luxurious, and dramatic evolution — Boatyard 2.0. While maintaining its coastal roots, the new design introduces deeper, richer finishes, darker hues, and bold architectural elements that elevate the guest experience.
The atmosphere is refined and moody, blending timeless nautical influences with modern elegance. The palette will feature deep navy, charcoal, espresso woods, and brushed brass accents, paired with polished stone, marble, and plush textiles. Architectural details will include sweeping arches, sculptural ceiling treatments, and a statement bar that anchors the space.
Lighting is layered and ambient, with custom fixtures creating warmth and intimacy. The layout will allow for open, flowing dining areas with thoughtfully designed private zones and seamless indoor-outdoor connections, keeping the waterfront central to the experience.
Boatyard 2.0 has become a destination defined by style, comfort, and longevity — a bold reimagining that feels both current and enduring. The design delivers an elevated coastal sophistication.
