The Canalhouse Bar & Restaurant in Nottingham

What a lovely place, it has everything food, great service and atmosphere. Very friendly and a great setting, even on match day.

Great range of ales: local, national and international. Cozy feeling indoors on an early spring afternoon. Crowd seem welcoming.

The chicken burger and chips were pretty disappointing, quite dry and not very flavourful. Bar staff were attentive, friendly and really informative with regard to the beers on offer.

Always enjoy our visits here. Great selection of beers and food. It’s a popular spot so gets busy but the staff are efficient so you don’t have to wait long.

Popped in on the way back home waiting for a train. The selection of craft beers is great, but a bit pricey. The atmosphere is good, with loads of sitting space inside and out. Great service! Can be very busy at times

We didn't eat this time but would definitely go back to do so. Loved it

Didn’t eat so can’t comment on that but it was a lovely setting by the canal, likely an old wharf/warehouse related to the canal. Staff were friendly and efficient at clearing glasses. We enjoyed ourselves.

Never been in a pub that had a bridge over to the bar and a canal boat in it really nice atmosphere we didn't eat here so cannot comment but will do next time highly recommend

Incredible place, the food is excellent and great value for money. There is a fantastic range of craft beer that changes regularly. Drinks can be a bit pricey but you get a great range

Only had 1 beer but the staff member was extremely helpful and the service was brilliant

Great place, good selection of beers, very friendly staff.

Great choice of beers, especially German and Belgian, the in particular Ayinger is worth a go. The building and outside areas are great, would highly recommend

Some of the best food in England i have hand my fellow Canadians must truy this gem

best burgers in nottingham! incredible selection of beer. unique atmosphere being on the canal & with a long boat inside the pub! highly, highly recommend

Just popped in for a drink before my train arrived, seemed an interesting place with a good choice of real ales.

Un ambiente tranquilo el lunes por la noche pero decente para una comida de negocios y bebidas. Comida muy promedio tristemente y dijo “hemos terminado de servir comida ahora” como el personal del bar llegó comida caliente - no es un buen aspecto

Arrived at canal house after reserving a table for Valentine’s Day, our first time visiting. Lovely place and atmosphere, however, paid £16 for a steak, medium rare; it came medium/well and was basically burnt on the outside, every mouthful was like eating coal. Not only that, it was so cold in the building (which I can understand why) but being placed right next to the doors, my dinner went cold. Staff service wasn’t too bad at the bar, but having issues with my meal& not being asked or spoken to when collecting our plates was the reason I’m writing this review. Very disappointed, especially for the price paid

Great atmosphere at this quirky pub. Huge selection of craft beers and cider. One of the best burgers I have tasted. Highly recommended

Great place for a beer. Why have a canal boat inside the pub? because you can in Nottingham when sited next to the canal.A large selection of real ales,continental beers and keg beers available. Great atmosphere in the Grade II listed building.

Great selection of beers, substantial food portions and tasty. Staff very helpful and friendly. Quirky Canalside venue with a chilled atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Nice pub with good pub food. Beautiful atmospheric location, highly recommended.

Lovely Bar with some great real Ales

Only has drinks, but what a selection of beers! Something for everyone. Service is excellent, and the environment is really unique, warm in winter.

Great afternoon with friends in this warehouse type pub that has a narrowboat floating and moored inside the building

Unusual bar with a canal running through it. Nice atmosphere and staff. Wide range of drinks. I would recommend a visit

Very nice extensive menu and large selections of beer.

Gorgeous pub in Nottingham. A must-visit! Terrific team, welcoming, and fantastic atmosphere. Go!

Cute pub, would like to come back again.

Only came for drinks but the atmosphere was lovely and the selection of drinks was HUGE- outdoor seating area is genuinely the best in Nottingham 🫶🏼

Wedding reception upstairs in the function room, brilliant place great nights

This is a nice pub with a friendly atmosphere. Plenty of choice on ales with good prices, limited choice on food but is also reasonably priced.

Great surroundings, food and drinks 🍺

Good selection of beers. Always good to see the canal boat inside!

Love their spinach and chickpea burger

They serve wheat beer on tap, great time to be alive.

Lovely view of the canal and boat..old bridge stil there in nottingham.lovely public houses at the canal

Great place , good vibe and interesting decor. Food a bit hit and miss, steak filly cheese sandwich out of this world, chips a bit hard and refried in places, peas abysmal. No excuse for cheap frozen peas on a 12 pound meal.

If you've never seen a pub with a canal running through it and a barge on the water, then wait no longer. Quirky (given that canal/barge combo) but a fantastic place too.

Muy bonito pub con el canal corriendo a través. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente como un lugar para ir si te gusta visitar diferentes cosas. Y especialmente si te gusta la cerveza

Gran selección de cervezas en grifo y en latas también. Espacio interior y exterior también. Cervezas bastante caras, pero de calidad, y obtienes lo que pagas

Excellent selection of beers and gin.

A great place to have a drink and a wonderful atmosphere.

A lovely, unique pub. A great choice of drinks and the food is good.

What a beautiful pub the outside area especially in summer is just amazing

If you are traveling or nearby with friends, I definitely recommend you come!! The atmosphere is so good.

Great place for functions. Been there three times for a Football Manager comedy show. Can't comment on food as only had drinks.

A great Castle Rock pub. Where others on the canal fail, the Canal House thrives, serving good food, good beer and good service.

Here for Sunday night comedy great show from Hayley Ellis thoroughly enjoyed it. Nice venue for pre show drinks friendly staff, reasonable prices Back again for 3 shows of the Nottingham comedy festival. Lovely venue and atmosphere for a great evening of entertainment. Will be back Thursday for moe.

Nice place , visited for the UK pipe show , reasonably priced drinks 👍

Bonita ubicación justo al lado del canal y a 2 minutos de la estación de tren principal. Muy acogedor lugar agradable, gran zona de estar. Buen servicio incluso cuando están muy ocupados. Asientos al aire libre. Me encanta la idea de una novia dentro del pub con luces de ensueño. Tenían una gran variedad de cerveza artesanal, cervezas, sidras y vino, así como bebidas sin alcohol. Tomé un par de copas y disfruté de mi comida antes de tomar un tren.

Unique, 19th century canal dock building repurposed as a pub with function room for hire and spacious outside, glass-roofed deck. Sit here, drink, eat whilst watching canal water traffic gliding serenely by. Good food menu with daily specials and a wide choice of drinks too. Well worth the effort to seek out the Canalhouse!

Great place pub pub beautiful environment a little chilly... Excellent food

Always like to pop in Rosy and Jims if you drink real ale theyve got a great discount membership going

There's a canal going through the middle of the pub! Really atmospheric and unusual (complete with barge) It's a castle rock pub so expect local brews. Food menu is small but well executed (we had the spicy shrimp pull boy, gammon with added pineapple and a perfectly cooked rare steak) Both entrance and loos are up lits of stairs so no good for anyone with mobility issues and we didn't see any alternatives. Upstairs has a private function room too. Friendly staff, would come again

Very caring with our wheelchair user Brilliant choice of ale's etc

Drinks only, not the cheapest place to drink, but the beers are excellent & well kept

Friendly and knowledgeable staff, a great selection of beers and a canal literally inside the pub!

Lovely place, great character, and a great history, but bloody hell, the gents toilets are very poor. The smell absolutely hits you when you walk in of stale urine. Needs some better cleaning with disinfectant! Worst toliets I've ever visited anywhere. I've been in better portaloo's.

Fantastic choice of beers but the boat in the canal looked a bit manky

A unique pub in a great location. There aren't many pubs that can say they have part of a canal and a canal boat inside. Quite unique feature, even though it was a bit untidy in the water. The food was excellent. A good choice of meals and light lunches and really good quality with generous portions. A nice outside area with lots of seating and good canal views.

Really enjoyed coming here. This pub is unique with a boat and canal inside. It is situated not far from the train station so great for a drink before catching a train. It is a spacious pub inside and out. Garden back onto the river which is pleasant. The bar had a huge range of beers from Europe. Didn't eat here though just drinks. Staff were friendly and happy to serve us.

Called in on a Saturday when forest were playing, really busy but got drinks pretty quickly. Great atmosphere

Excellent bar with decent food and a great choice of continental beers.

Really nice pub. The outside seating area is perfect on a nice day next to the water. Staff are always friendly. Plenty of drink options.

work meeting held in function room, lovely room with bar, situated by canal with outdoor seating

Discriminatory pub with selective action on the law. From other reviews staff are clearly lacking a clear understanding of the law. Do better and don’t be so defensive. Went to the bar with a friend and she was ordering an alcoholic drink. I did not at any point ask to order a drink, I simply asked for a menu. I was told I needed to provide ID before my friend could order a drink, as it was policy and that my friend could potentially be doing a ‘proxy buy’. I complied and brought my ID. I came back to find that another waitress was serving my friend and providing her with an alcoholic drink. I questioned this action, as if you challenge someone to provide ID, you don’t then provide those said people with alcohol without confirming that they are all of age (that is the law). When I questioned this they replied with oh well my colleague is doing ‘separate service’ I don’t have anything to do with that. But if this was a so called ‘proxy buy’ like they said, what was to stop my friend in that moment still buying alcohol for me. Your duty under the law and as service providers is to notify all colleagues that you have challenged said people and they are not to be served alcohol until all parties show ID. You were wrong, working against the law and out of order. Furthermore challenging me for a drink when I haven’t even ordered anything is strange behaviour but not challenging any of the other people in the work group.

Not been in for a while but still had a good selection of beers wife enjoyed her cider

Nice busy pub on the outskirts of the city centre, large choice of craft ales and cider. Service takes a while but this down to the sheer volume of customers (on my visit at least). Only negative is it's tad on the expensive side. Would visit again though.

Great to pop in after work and enjoy a few beers in the sun. The selection of beers seems to get better. The outside space next to the canal is a great when we get a warm patch

El lugar en sí tiene un buen ambiente y sería bueno para las bebidas. Desafortunadamente, la comida es bastante horrible. Una comida se quemó y otra estaba fría. Muy decepcionante.

A great place full of character. Great staff

Smart, modern open plan city centre pub.

Staff were pretty unfriendly and the food was very average. I had a plain burger which was plain… it’s a nice location on the water and the canal comes into the restaurant.

absolutely awful,spoke to use like we were worth nothing the staff think they are better then anybody else, they treat people with the littlest respect, came here for a wedding and will defiantly not be returning, the staff need to learn how to respect others and not think about themselves for once, i hope this place gets shut down

Great friend place for a drink and a chat

The pub is still amazing I've not been since 2020 and still now it's an amazing summer pup, highly recommend.

Pleasant and nice canal views. Good selection of beers. Castle Rock brewery/beers.

Nice place where to catch up with friends. Good atmosphere and great staff xx

Great experience in a very unique bar, food ordered from the specials board was good, beer also good and the service was excellent

Great place with a barge in it 😯

Excellent vibes amongst the rustic charm. A canal inside the pub and a bridge to cross the canal!!!!!

Friendly staff, great location, amazing selection of drinks

Lovely place to sit and watch the world go by

Great pub with a good beer garden. Have a good range of craft beers to choose from and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable

Nice outside area near the water. Can get extremely busy at the weekends. Bar wait times can be also be very long experienced ~20 minutes on a Friday.

Realy humid no air conditioning poor.we all left

Nice atmosphere and drink selection.

Great bar in the sun with a good selection of beers an ciders

Fantastic atmosphere and lovely beer garden, alongside the canal ❤️

Toilets too far away up stairs for disabled not nice

Novel but great relaxing atmosphere. Good selection of drinks. Hope to visit again soon.

Busy popular pub on the canal. Great range of beers. Friendly staff.

This place is awesome and well worth a visit. The selection of ales were brilliant, the atmosphere was nice and chilled as we went mid week. It was quirky and well worth a visit.

A cool, atmospheric place with all kinds of patrons.

Don't know when they built this place, but well done. Great real ale, lovely view of the canal

Unpredictable location Unpredictable ad 😉

Just AMAZING..! One of the best real ale pubs in Nottingham!

Nice bar on the canal. Great use of an old boat shed.

Very good beer and the person who served me knew them perfectly, thank you for this experience! Plus, the location is great!

Great atmosphere and a quirky pub in the heart of Nottingham. Perfect meeting point for a group to get together.
