Description

Recently reopened, this picturesque canal-side stop offers a reasonable selection of drinks, though currently no food is available. Despite this setback, the ambience and service are excellent, making it well worth a visit. Unfortunately, the food quality has received mixed reviews in the past, with some customers expressing disappointment. However, the staff's friendliness and the overall atmosphere have been praised, offering a promising outlook for future visits. The Top Lock has attracted a loyal following, with many eager to return and support the new management team who are dedicated to making this establishment a success.

Great, family friendly pub in a perfect location next to the canal. Really nice selection of ales and lager on draught, great atmosphere.

Charming and inviting pub. Perfect for a leisurely stroll along the canal and enjoying a refreshing beer or wine break. I will definitely return during the summer, as the setting is so lovely.

I'm not sure what the previous review was all about, clearly written by someone with personal issues. I have been a regular at this pub for several years and I am thrilled to see it reopen. The new team here is professional and always creates a warm and friendly atmosphere. I am looking forward to trying the food, as I'm sure it will be fantastic. The beer is excellent and I am happy to see that it is still dog-friendly. I believe that the Top Lock has finally found a great landlord and management team that will help it thrive. I highly recommend paying a visit.
