After ten years of working at the cafe and three years as a co-owner, I have become the sole owner of the cafe. I look forward to welcoming you and continuing to provide the high-quality atmosphere and service you have come to expect.
Discover the remarkable Five Rise Locks, where history meets engineering. With the steepest staircase on the longest canal in the country, the locks have been named by the Canal & River Trust as one of the seven wonders of the waterways. Experience the unique charm and breathtaking views that this iconic landmark has to offer.
