Description

Whilton Locks Canalside Restaurant is undergoing an exciting transformation! Our extension is progressing wonderfully, with the new decking enjoying the sunshine and a spacious glazed indoor area soon to open, adding seating for an extra 80 guests. Alongside this, a brand-new toilet facility will be conveniently located within the restaurant. We’re thrilled to offer an even more inviting canalside dining experience — truly ‘moor’ canal-side than ever before. Come and enjoy the best garden centre for smiles around at Whilton Locks Garden Village!.

The menu focuses on classic homemade comfort food, including staples like cottage pie and baked potatoes, all at reasonable prices. Just keep your expectations in check; it's good but not gourmet. If you find yourself craving breakfast later in the day, they serve it all day for just £5. The staff are efficient and will get your food and drinks to you in a timely manner, though don’t expect overly friendly service. The drink selection is quite good too, especially if you enjoy real ale on tap. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to unwind.

This place has a great location and a cute quirky look. But they didn't have any savoury vegan options available when I went there. And it took them a really long time to serve me. It's fine if you want a quick cake or drink. But I think that if they want to serve food, they should give more options for a vegan.

During two separate visits, our straightforward bar orders were delivered incorrectly and needed to be fixed, much to the irritation of the staff member who served us (the same person both times). While mistakes can happen, the dirty cutlery (see photo) added to our disappointment, leading us to decide not to come back.

This charming little pub/cafe has a cozy atmosphere, featuring warm fireplaces inside and outdoor seating by the canal, perfect for watching the barges go by. Although we didn't try the food, they offer omelettes and various baked goods, including cakes and pastries. We only stopped by for drinks and really enjoyed our experience. The bar is well-stocked, and hot beverages are also available.
