Now expanded and part of an hotel and restaurant complex, we were pleasantly surprised by this pub. Popular with a wide variety of people due to its waterside location, it has plenty of outside seating overlooking the canal, lots of car parking at the rear, and it has the benefit of its own moorings for canal boats. The staff were very pleasant indeed, very helpful and took pride in what they were doing. We found it comfortable, modern (in a good way) and convivial. Water and biscuits were provided for the dogs without asking. Ales on were Wye Valley HPA, plus DNA and Origin from Charles Wells. The beers were served colder than I should have liked, but they were in good condition. Food came in good sized portions and was better quality than many other, similar establishments. One of the better canal-side pubs we visited this time, and certainly worth a return visit in the future.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Moorings at Myton
Close to the Waterside, but this pub / restaurant is the more upmarket of the two establishments. Although a Charles Wells house, it is unbranded apart from the traditional pub sign beside the Grand Union Canal. The smart interior is divided into three parts - the entrance lobby with part of the bar counter, a rectangular lounge-style bar to the left and a 'L'-shaped dining area on the other side - with modern furniture and decor throughout. If the weather allows, the split-level front patio terrace sits close to the water, but oddly the vegetation has been allowed to obscure the view. Four real ales on handpump: Bombardier, Courage Directors, Young's Special (£3.60) and Purity Pure UBU as a guest.

This is one of those edge of town affairs you get near retail parks and major road junctions, so you've a fair idea of what to expect: newish build, huge car park, food led with the usual steak and chips stuff, screaming kids at weekends. This one has a few redeeming features. It isn't a Hungry Horse or a Wacky Warehouse for a start, and it has a very pleasant canalside terrace though blighted by the noisy main road nearby. It's reasonably tastefully got up inside, though any pubby ambience has been expensively designed out. Charles Wells, so Directors/Youngs Special/Bombardier on the pumps and guests from Purity. Sort of place your in-laws take you for lunch.

This is a Charles Welles pub but was closed for refurbishment! It must have been open during the summer season because the tubs and baskest were still in flower but we couldn’t see any work being carried out. Has a nice small decking area with view of the canal.
Sat nicely on the canal, next to bridge 43 on the Grand union, there was 2/3 moorings for narrow boats at this pub, but a missed opportunity for better mooring facilities before and after the bridge. This area is a good place to stop if you need Sainsbury, lidls or even Franky and Benny!

The building appears to be modern built from reused brick. A large carpark at the front leads you to the front entrance with a disabled toilet to the right.An upstairs bar was not in use on my visit. Stairs and a disabled lift lead down to the lower bar and canalside patio area.The background music and traffic noise from the bridge close by can be intrusive.Three ales and an interesting choice of global lagers available.The menu was average both in choice and price but preferable to the nearby Tiller Pin. Average age of customers was ,I guess, 20>35 years.
Wheelchair users can use a curving path to the left of the main door to enter the patio but it is very steep.
