Hatton Locks Cafe in Warwick - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Advertised various vegetarian options on the menu, but if your veggie option had a certain je ne sais quoi it’s because all the items are all cooked on one hot plate along with the bacon and various other meat. Don’t visit if you’re veggie.

Found this cafe on a walk past the Hatton Locks and decided to try one of the famous scones with a cup of tea. Absolutely delicious. The rest of the menu looked great too, with reasonable prices, so we hope to come back! Lots of outdoor seating right on the side of the canal.

Delicious cream tea served beside this impressive staircase of locks. Dog friendly inside and out. Enjoyed it so much back we returned a few days later. Thoroughly recommend.👍

Taking a walk along the Grand Union canal we called onto the Hatton Locks cafe for to lovely de cafe lattes an ideal position along side the canal doing a large range of food breakfasts very popular lovely friendly staff Well worth a visit

On the way in they talked about their fabulous scones, so I was hoping for a good cream tea. Despite eating in, we were served drinks in takeaway cups. The jam and cream were already served into little paper receptacles, and the plates were paper as well. It felt like they couldn't get us out fast enough. It wasn't like this poor service was reflected in the cost either. Advertise scones, suggests some sort of cream tea, which should be served in cups, on proper plates. The scone was OK, but not as good as it should have been.

This is alway a lovely place for breakfast, right on the canal by the locks - food is always great, prices reasonable and staff always lovely - such a lovely little place!

Lovely quirky cafe right in the canal. Open all year round, even on a wet December morning. Good choice if breakfast foods on our visit. Friendly staff

Nice little cafe with loads of outdoor seating lovely food and staff,fair prices good portions tasty food ,we had a ploughmans best I've had for years, really enjoyed it ,even better ona nice day,sits right on the canal edge watch the boats go through the locks rural setting,enjoy ...parking is about 30 metres away cost 2 pound for 2 hours it's a waterways carpark.great friendly staff.dogs welcome

Lovely little spot which is luckily on our doorstep. It’s very picturesque and has a great walk seeing lots of families and dogs enjoying some peaceful countryside.

A nice cafe situated on the banks of the canal overlooking the locks. Quaint and quirky with items hanging over the ceiling/walls most of it for sale. Can sit and watch the boats go through the locks. Food was mainly nice with the jacket potato very tasty. The bacon roll a bit too salty to eat. Staff friendly and good selection of cakes, drinks alcoholic and non alcoholic.

Visit quite regularly now after discovering this little fab cafe! Great place to sit and watch the barges go by! Definitely recommend a visit and also the whisky marmalade they sell too!

Popped in today for lunch with work colleagues. I had a ham and cheese toastie which was fab and a slice of homemade coffee and walnut cake, absolutely lovely. Couldn’t eat all my cake as I was stuffed so brought it home. We then went for a walk along the canal with the fabulous volunteers. What a lovely kept place this is. We sat outside even though it was raining and windy The wasps were out in force but I was enjoying my food too much to care Will be back soon, hopefully it’ll be on a sunny day to have another great lunch, go for a nice walk and watch the world go by along with the ducks and sheep in the field opposite.

What a lovely spot! Cafe is a short walk from the car park. I had a nice cheese and med veg toastie. Nice bread for sandwiches which come with a small garnish/salad and coleslaw. Watch out for a few wasps if you sit outside. There are 21 locks over two miles for those who want a longer walk.

Amazing service at this lovely Cafe. The lady could not have been more helpful. We stopped on a very very hot afternoon as we reached the top of Hatton Locks. Ice creams were very much in order. There’s a lovely place to sit outside, under cover to protect from the sun (and rain). A great range of products and delicious food - and a nice chat about Cubs and Brownies! Thank you :) and we will be back.

We were in the vicinity and couldn't resist the temptation to have a walk canalside. As we felt peckish we dropped into the charming cafe just below the top lock. So glad we did. Staff were friendly food was scrumptious and prices were very reasonable.

Great cafe at the top of the Hatton Flight. Always worth a visit when working the locks. Really good that they do cooked breakfast all day til 3. One of our favorites

Called fore brekky in the middle of a walk, food was excellent and service great, the quality of the ingredients was outstanding defo recommend and will be returning

We intended to walk by the canal and stop for a coffee in the cafe. The pork bap looked soooo tempting that we ordered 3!, and then followed them with slices of delicious home made cakes!. The coffee and hot chocolates were super too!. The serving ladies were so friendly and humorous it really made our day. It’s dog friendly too!. We really loved the art in the cafe itself!.

Called in for breakfast, midweek and quite busy, v friendly staff, ate excellent bacon and egg plus sausage and egg baps, really tasty, large portions, reasonably priced, excellent coffee. Great start to the day, thanks. Will revisit.

What a truly idiotic spot and absolute wonderful food. We ate our amazing locks-man’s lunch, ploughman’s lunch and coronation chicken sandwich, under shady trees. We ate like kings, but the price was very reasonable and defiantly worth every penny.

Hatton locks cafe has Really tasty food, great value and perfect stop on the canal :) highly recommended.

What a lovely setting. This is a quirky little cafe. With friendly staff. Clean tidy. Food is delicious and very busy. Love it here ...sitting outside in the sun... enjoying my lunch. I recommend trying the scones. The Hatton Locks are also a nice canal side walk to do. 2.2 miles each way, end to end. A very tranquil and quiet walk.

Great independent cafe - excellent home cooked food. Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely return. Lots of locals present which is always a giveaway for a good cafe.

Great discovery follwing internet search for cafe by a lock. Met the fabulous Debbie whise scones loved up to expectations

We stopped here just for a morning coffee but stayed for lunch as it was so quirky and the staff were so nice

Cute little canalside cafe, parking very close by, just a short stroll past the locks. Lovely breakfast, very reasonably priced and quick to arrive despite being busy.

A lovely location set at the side of canal outside seating watching the booats go by serves a lovely coffee and a large range of cakes and pastries very popular for breakfasts and lunch meals a very friendly staff providing excellent service. A must visit.

Popped for an Afternoon tea that was advertised but when asked I was told 24hr notice needed…but they did toasties ?? The scones were great but how difficult is it to do afternoon tea

Perfect little cafe, the ploughman's lunch was delicious. The ingredients felt great quality. The decor is cute and cosy. The staff are lovely and it feels like a family run place. Just what you need after a walk around the canal. Decent price too with...

Lovely place with friendly staff. Everything is freshly made so takes a bit longer, but worth the wait. Wasps were a nuisance.

We popped in for an ice lolly and to chill out by the canal. It is a peaceful spot between 2 locks with passing ducks and swans. There was A-frame advertising boards outside of some things they serve. Soup and a roll, cream tea and...

Taking a walk along Grand Union Canal the Ideal place for refreshments is the Hatton Locks Cafe situated along side the Canal serving a good range of food and drinks very popular for breakfasts Friendly staff well worth a visit

Just a brilliant cafe with great food and a diverse menu. Great service and friendly staff. We love it there.

Came in with family yesterday, loved the setting by the canal and service was fab! Will definitely come back on the warmer days!

Visiting the locks for a walk along the Grand Union canal we called into the cafe we had 2 lovely decaf lattes sat outside along side the canal. Friendly staff. Well worth a visit

Love this cafe, when out walking we often have the lovely turkey baps, but today they also had pork, cut thick and very tasty. Kept seeing the scones and not tried before but decided to go for one today, very fresh, best one I’ve had...

Great place to stop with the dog. Plenty of outside seating. Nice scone and jam & good coffee. You can sit here and watch the world go by.

Dropped by for a cup of tea. This is a really clean cafe. Stunning location right next to the canal. Staff really friendly. Tea excellent. 5 stars

Enjoyed tea and yummy toasted tea cake in the sunshine, friendly staff, good selection, fab service.

First ever visit and we were welcomed like old friends. Not only 5 star scones and 10 star staff but great location at the top of an engineering miracle. Our dog fell in the water (he is from abroad) and the owner gave us towels...

Lovely full English and great value. Bacon and mushrooms especially tasty, plus proper thick toast. We bought cakes to take away and they were really good bakes and large slices!

Easily found, after parking on the opposite side of the canal. Definitely recommended on a sunny day with all the outside tables, though it might get a bit crowded inside in worse weather. The 'famous' scones were very good and reasonably priced.

We all had the light breakfast ..... it was huge. Cup of tea - perfect way to start the day. Go for a walk alongs the locks.

Really annoying, lots of signs advertising cream tea, with scones. Waited 15 minutes in a queue only to be told that they had no scones left! Why not take in your sign advertising scones? There can only be one reason, you hope that after people...

After seeing all the boards saying Open All Day and listing what sounded to be lovely hot food options and cream teas we called in today hoping to have some food only to be told the kitchen closes at 4pm..... which was confusing as it...

Breakfast stop en route from Surrey to Wales. Good quality reasonably priced food in a lovely location just off the M40.

We stopped here on our way through the locks on a narrowboat. Its a lovely spot to sit and watch the boats coming through when the weather's nice. For such a small place they seem to offer an enormously wide range of food. Their breakfasts...

Had a lovely breakfast today and although very busy food was out quick and staff very friendly. First chance visit but will be back again. Did look at the reviews and really surprised some people have rated terrible. Can’t comment on the service they received...

What a fantastic little cafe in a beautiful spot. We had a breakfast and a ploughman’s , both great value for money and using best quality ingredients. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area.

Not sure if the cafe has been taken over recently, despite understandable covid changes in menu there was nt so much choice. I am not a vegan but was not expecting a veg roll to contain a splash of tinned tomato, a teaspoon of fried...

AMAZING breakfast bap and great views. Coffee was also nice and staff were friendly and prompt.......

Whilst walking our dog along the canal we visited Hatton Locks Cafe for a much needed hot chocolate and bacon roll. Very friendly staff operating a safe service during these difficult times. Our dog was also made a fuss of and most enjoyed the treats...

Went in to get a coffee and a cake - stupid service arrangements apparently covid related but none of the 3 staff wearing a mask.... I left Don't bother going

The best breakfast baps ever! Love this cafe, love the location, love the food and love the owners. Friendly, relaxed and great quality food. Hope you all have a lovely Christmas break and see you in the new year. We can’t wait to tuck into...

Lovely little cafe along the towpath, with a great range of homemade cakes, delicious sandwiches and sausage rolls and hot and cold drinks. The seating area is really well spaced out and is lovely to sit at whilst you’re watching the world go by. However,...

We wanted to walk from the top lock to bottom lock at Hatton and came across this cafe by the top lock.Had a great coffee and scone. After the walk back went in for ploughman's lunch and again just superb. Thank you for what you...

It pays to use Tripadvisor. We found this cafe whilst searching for places to eat in Warwick, so planned a walk and breakfast around a visit to Hatton Locks cafe. Parking was good at £1.50 for the whole day and the walk up and down...

Visited for lunch with friends. A lovely 'rural-based' menu with a lot of choice. Lots of outside seating which is superb for watching the boating activities at the nearby flight of locks. Food is all 'home-made' by the lovely people that run the cafe and...

Called in while cycling as I had heard good things and wasn't disappointed. Plenty of outside seating right next to the canal to watch the boats go by. Four bike racks next to the seating area. Good Covid rules in place - masks indoors, and...

My hubby and I visited again today, cycling 18 miles for one of their breakfast sarnies. We weren't disappointed. Egg and Bacon on crusty brown bread and a lovely strong cup of tea. Great to see their Covid 19 risk assessment in place. Queuing outside...

Best cafe ever! Love this place, the food and the people. They do a great all day breakfast when service is running as usual. At the moment their breakfast baps are delicious! Really friendly atmosphere, lovely owners and always great quality food. A definite recommend.

Enjoyed distanced seating outside surrounded by green. Coffee was great and especially enjoyed the home made cakes. The toilet was a blessing too, spotless and the only one to be found!

We have eaten there twice before having a wonderful full English a few years ago so were looking forward to another. Having completed the hatton flight we moored up and made our way to the cafe we could see the bill board stating full English so I went and found a table outside which there were plenty, my wife went in to order when she returned she said they are not doing a full English so she ordered a breakfast roll which was egg sausage bacon we also ordered tea and coffee, my wife was annoyed that when she went to pay the lady said that will be £19.50 my wife said I don't think so when they added again it was £13.50 they apologised said must of pressed wrong key my wife was sure if she did not question it she would of been overcharged by £7. when the food arrived I must admit it was worth every penny and set us up for the rest of the day don't think they really went to any great lengths to make it covid safe as people were standing outside with very little regard to social distancing but it is clearly a very popular place and a lovely place to watch the narrowboats go through the locks we will go there again but just make sure we are not over charged

Great location situated at Hatton Locks - sitting Canalside. A number of benches, tables located outside the cafe. Breakfast baps are excellent. The toilets are basic and ok. Great canal walks. Highly Recommended

Visited here during lockdown, lovely friendly owner serving fantastic take away food in a safe environment. We all had sausage sandwiches, drinks and ice creams. Will definitely visit again.

Good selection of food, reasonable prices, enjoyed the decor in the cafe, building is in a convenient location with toilets off to the side

2.5 hours of walking in very wet and muddy conditions we came to the cafe all of us had the full english breakfast and filter coffee and it was excellent ,well cooked and tasty with lovely toast.

Had a lovely walk along the canal with my Family. We stopped off for a full English breakfast, which was delicious. I also had a really nice flat white, although I was tempted to try the local beer. Friendly staff and quick service. We'll definitely be coming back.

Had breakfast here, and the chef was chatting away at one of the table, then stroked a dog on her way back to the kitchen. Personally, it's not hygienic for the chef/cook with apron on, stroking a dog and then off back in the kitchen to cook. I do sincerely hope the chef washed or sanitised her hands before proceeding to do any cooking. I don't have the faith, so I did not return to this establishment.

Lovely little cafe to grab a bite and a drink. The service was quick and the coffee excellent. The only down side is that the cafe is quite small so very hard to get a table when it is busy.

A delightful little cafe, on one of the 26 locks...sit and watch the barges . The food all home made and delicious. Well worth a visit,,,dogs too are welcome! A piece of history. Full of local interesting photos and articles for sale.

Really enjoyed lunch here whist on a walk. Had the 'Soup and Toastie' special, very tasty. Tea is good and strong too. Really friendly atmosphere, very cosy.

Popped in here mid morning whilst walking along the Grand Union Canal. A very popular cafe, it serves a varied menu with fresh foods. Customer service is friendly and efficient. Very reasonably priced, too. Highly recommended.

It's lovely to support a non chain - and in this case, this cafe really deserves it. I went there today. The fried breakfasts and bacon sandwiches being eaten around us looked great - however I had chicken curry with rice and naan which was fabulous and not bland, followed by an iced fondant for pudding. I didn't rate the coffee only thing, but I am a total coffee snob. I think they might be grinding it and then leaving it in the drum too long, so maybe next time I'll have the filter and not an espresso-based drink. I really would recommend this place though and can't wait to go back! The service was really friendly and attentive and the food top notch with mince pies (Christmas time) on offer for pudding and Yule log. Really yummy food and a gem. Dog-Friendly too.

Stopped for lunch in this cafe after a walk with my family. Such a friendly feel inside and nicely decorated. Service was lovely and really quick. Food was fab! Had a toastie and a wonderful bun - delicious. Good value. Cafe let’s dogs in too which is a bonus. Thank you. It was lovely and I look forward to returning.

Good slection of food and drinks, little crowded if weather poor but great on a sunny day to sit outside and watch the boats go by on the canal.

A quirky cafe on the banks of the canal. Friendly staff who point out, “We don not do fast food, we serve homemade food as fast as we can”. I have to say it is always worth the wait. Beautifully cooked food at reasonable prices. A place you should definitely visit when walking or riding by the canal.

Stopped here for breakfast, such a lovely setting by the canal. Cafe is clean and quirky. They have blankets if it’s cold so you can sit outside and towels for wet dogs too ☺️Staff were friendly and food was good the only downside was that there was no gluten free sausage but they substituted for gluten free hash brown I will definitely return
