This Pub is Closed Long Term

Closed March 2024 due to severe flooding. Greene King have sold the pub.

It is expected to reopen under new private ownership in August 2025.

Popular family dining pub by the Grand Union Canal, on the northern edge of Watermead Country Park. Mooring available for boats. The pub is a single room with tables available for eating or drinking. There is a children's play area and a sandpit outside. The pub has a delightful canalside beer garden, and is very popular on hot summer days.

Historic Interest

According to the Leicester Mercury, Percy Barradale of the Syston Brewery (Queen Victoria) was brewing here ca.1899-1901. The pub was later owned by Grand Metropolitan (Watney's). Until March 2024, Greene King ran the pub as a Hungry Horse family restaurant.
