Graham Coombs left this review about Navigation Waterfront
A bar an small music venue created in the lower level of an old warehouse, with windows and a small outdoor area overlooking the Trent Navigation behind. There a lots of brick arches and occasional steel props, and it is not recommended for the vertically well-endowed! The bar counter is to one side, with the band area in the centre with the water behind. Regular beers are Bass and TT Landlord, with Rat Raturday Night Fever as guest. Quite nice - I would be interested to see what it was like with a band on.

Navigation is a modern waterside bar on the ground floor of what I assumed to be an old warehouse. The wooden flooring and exposed brick arches give the feel of a cellar bar. Large windows look out onto the River Trent and along the riverbank is a thin patio. The three hand pumps were drawing St Austell’s Tribute, Pheasantry’s PA Pale Ale and Seacider. Premium keg was also available alongside Beavertown’s Neck Oil. There is a tapas and burger menu, the latter being priced at £12. Live music is held here on Fridays and Saturdays, but be warned that the doors don’t open until 16:00 and they close at 22:00 during the week. This is the sort of place I’d go to with the wife.

Well laid out pub with a lot of room. Trouble is there was no real ale worth taking about but could be worth a revisit to see if that has changed.
