One of the cosiest pubs around! Sunday Roast is great, the menu changes frequently and you have the canal right there - in summer people take over the whole area around the bridge . Very unique gem.

Charlotte Moulton

Fantastic Sunday menu. I had the pie sign a side of mash which was awesome. Roast also good. Great location, pretty view , but super busy on a Sunday would suggest book ahead. Service only ok.

Hande Erfus

Order at the bar and they will bring your food to you. Limited seating outdoors. Sunday roasts are good, also the cod&chips. As a lighter option, I would recommend the quinoa , kale , avocado salad .

Lea Desplaces

£6 squash soup came cold w/out the advertised roasted chestnuts and sourdough (and I had to ask). We also asked to get dishes at the same time given NYE family dinner situation - ended up eating in 2s

Benjamin Browil

Great staff , very friendly and professional, yesterday we had Sunday Roast and was delicious, customer service 10 out of 10. Place very well managed as every pub should be, this guy is really top.

The Narrowboat has upped its game, the quality of the menu is now more in keeping with the gastropub prices - sophisticated food, well presented, generous portions - well done!

Lovely gastropub overlooking Regents Canal in Angel, so perfect for a sunny day. Recommend the mussels & avocado/feta/hazelnut salad with a bottle of prosecco . Food (8.5/10), Service (7/10), Value (8/ Read more

Nice views of the canal and very good food! If you are not a fan of sunday roast , fear not! You ll definitely find something to munch! ;)

Alguccia

Only good for the view&location on the canal . Anything else is totally forgettable: the service, the food, the drinks, the coffee ..£14.5 for a half-cold and not even tasty Veggie roast????

純苔 小橋川

The chocolate , peanut butter , banana , avocado mousse is amazing! You have to try it! Get two!

Oli Dowdeswell

Stunning location and fantastic menu. Brilliant chips and burger , amazing pie and the sausage and mash is also worth a go!

Sam Licker

Great fish and chips + a beautiful view of the canal . Very friendly staff as well !

Simon Donaldson

Excellent sharing boards, roasts and burgers . Good stout on tap and excellent wines . Just took the parents and they loved it too!

James Parton

Pretty good selection of Young's ales . About half a dozen tables on outside balconies over looking the canal . Nice.

Peal Partz

The atmosphere is lovely. The food is bad. I ordered a salad with blue cheese dressing and it was legitimately just mayonnaise ....considering it was one of the few veggie options . It's nearly inedible

Jordi Llobet

Try to take a table at the terrace . Quite and beautiful area. Fries are so good, and the Hamburgers are amazing.

Toby Schuster

A beautifully chilled out place that serves great food. Service is super friendly and striking that peculiar balance of being laid-back yet efficient. A perfect destination...

Stavroula Konidari

Went there for a birthday party and the group food was good! Staff is always nice and helpful. Good place.

Lizzie Finn

Really good Sunday roast and awesome staff . I accidentally left my phone there and one of the bar tenders dropped it to my house on his way home!

Leeky

Try and get a seat on the balconies over looking the canal . They also do a really good take on Fish & Chips .

Marc Lawson

We had the DNA ale , which was hoppy but still nice. The view outside and the environment inside were great. However, the pint cost £5.04 - what's with the 4p?

Benni Prinz

Great place to enjoy a drink in the sun when it is warm out

A L

Lovely location, was a regular here for years but have decided to stop going as the prices have climbed while food has become generic - nearly £20 for a very basic pub main course...

Brandon ????????☕️

So many crazy choices of foods and they were actually open on Sunday!! Only pub around that I could get into. ????????

Nash Nani

Unique for its canal views and balconies , but the food is also pretty solid..highly recommended

Platters to share are fantastic and quite big. There are also seats upstairs on the balconies if you're lucky

Pretty cute place but gets packed on the weekend, bring back the bench on the canal !

Different, lovely and confortable place to have a beer . It seems that you are not in London.

Good food with a real country feeling... You don't feel like you're in London anymore!
