  Decent canal side pub with great beer choice, reasonable bar service and decent bar food. Had a pint of Bank's Amber which was in brilliant condition. This pub is CAMRA-listed & you can tell why.
  
  Ordered two Ham & Cheddar ploughman's which were very standard, of their kind, but the rest of the bar menu looked a bit more enterprising.
  
  Car park looks pretty tight. We took advice from previous reviewers and parked in the Canal Museum Car Park which had plenty of spaces. £3 seemed fine to me if the money goes to the museum and/or the local community.
  
  Did a circular walk using the canal tow paths & out into the country around Alderton & back... 6.5 miles, so I was ready for that pint.

  This is a historic, family run pub next to the Grand Union Canal. Wide selection of food and a variety of beers. Absolutely brilliant on a summers evening but of course it gets busy then. Car park is a bit small and the parking is awkward. Suggest you use the canal museum car park instead (there's a small pay and display charge). Cosy in winter when they have open fires. Play skittles with cheeses.
