Welcome to The Canal and Riverside Pub Guide
In this comprehensive guide to waterway pubs, you will find:
- Pubs that are near to a navigable canal or river in England and Wales
- Facilities at each pub including whether serving Real Ale, food and if they welcome your dog !
- A specific page for the Llangollen Canal Pubs
- A dedicated page for the Birmingham Canal Navigations (BCN) Pubs
- A Pub Guide for our major rivers - River Thames, River Severn and River Trent
- Pubs on waterway cruising rings
- A developing photo reference of pubs on the waterways
- Many pubs included in the waterways corridor that are not shown in other guides
What, another pub guide ? Yes, but this one is different
The guide shows pubs, micropubs and pubs with own breweries/taprooms along the navigable inland waterways in England and Wales.
We do rely on feedback from our users, as well as our own continuing research by boat, car, bike and foot which does allow us to keep the entries relatively up to date
With many other pub guides, research is undertaken, compiled and published after a period of several months, during which time the information content decays and is unlikely to stay in date as at the time of collection
This guide is only shown on-line so has the ability for the entries to be updated and available very quickly. We would have loved to give listings of all the beers served in every pub, maintained details of the food menus available but, as can be appreciated, this would be difficult to keep up to date. We advise that you always ring the pub to ensure what you expect is available as offerings do change and we would appreciate any updates so the guide can be kept current. We do show pub websites where available
We normally include pubs that up to a mile away from the navigation in the waterway corridor. Others a little further away have also been included where they have an architectural interest, good food and/or a good selection of beer. Towards the bottom of each page we have shown pubs that have been closed for both a historical reference and you to realise other guides you are using are out of date!
Our guide includes more and many pubs that are not shown in other waterway pub guides (Nicholson’s, Pearson’s, Heron Maps, Lockmaster, Imray, Tempus) as we search out all such places within the waterway corridor. If you know of any more, please provide send us an e-mail and we will happily include them for the benefit of all to be included in The Canal and Riverside Pub Guide
We will be pleased to provide a link to any canal or riverside pub which is alongside a navigable waterway free of charge. Please e-mail us with the details
To ensure the pub information shown is as up to date as possible, we encourage feedback so we can update the pub entries to reflect what happening on the ground rather than becoming a decaying and out of date information source
We do have a regular Facebook posts which follows the changes to pubs near to the waterways shown on the Pub Updates page which are published most days
The guide is compiled entirely as a interest and as a support to the brewing and pub industry. We do cover all of the cost ourselves although sometimes charges are made to help offset the cost of travelling and trying what the pub has to offer!
