For some reason this has now been renamed the Hatton Arms...I hate it when pubs change names that have been established for years. I think some time ago the new management decided to abandon the bikers' evenings as they didn't want to be associated with them anymore...a shame for all concerned. Went in there this evening and no question it's a lovely looking place and very tastefully decorated but that will fade given time. Slovenly service from disinterested bar staff who looked like they'd rather be doing anything else than serve you (one of them was polishing glasses for a good two or three minutes before he deemed it time to serve me - I HATE that).
�8.50 for a pint of Pilsner Urquel, a Bells and Orange Juice. Guess who's paying for the refurb???
I shan't be going back in a hurry?

What a great value, affordable restaurant. I went on Saturday night and had a great evening, the food wad great, (2 courses and a glass of bubbly for 11.95) the service was excellent and the atmosphere was lovely, it has some beautiful views over the Grand Union Canal, definatley worth a visit.

It was the worst evening we had in a long time. The food was over an hour and a half late (excuse was a large group was in but the rest of the tables were empty as middle of the week), we found string in one persons dinner and an insect in another persons dinner. The service was poor and slow. Not much of an apology offered.

Great setting by the canal with a massive garden. Good choice of local ales, including one brewed specially for the pub. Good choice of vegetarian food, freshly cooked. Recommended
|
Great place to stop when out walking on the canel from warwick.
|
Apart from the cost side, good beer, decent food, nice views. Slightly bizarre joint enterence/gents cross over but all in all worth a visit if your ever in that part of the world.
|
nice garden near the canal. Food is wannabe gastropub type. Better than most but not original or outstanding.
|
Good food and the staff were friendly, helpful and plentiful. The beer was good too. I'm only sorry I live too far away to visit on a more regular basis.

Under new management who are showing great enthusiasm and promise. Their new menu promises well.
