The Trent Lock in Erewash

Party of 3 3 main..3 desserts 3 soft drinks £118..OVERPRICED That probably why the was only a handful of people in

Cosy pub on the river for families/couples or small groups. Allows dogs. Has a great fire place and in the Summer a great outdoor area.

Went for breakfast, good selection. It was lovely

We had a Fantastic Day we had our family Christmas get together they all looked after us wonderfully xx

The place itself and the location are excellent. We got there for a late Saturday lunch as the earliest time we could get a table, so the service was a bit slow at first. But we were late enough for the main lunchtime crowd to leave and the place empty out. As a result we ended up spending 4 hours over a very leisurely meal without being rushed out or feeling at all pressured by the staff. I had the pie, which was more crust than filling, although both were excellent. Overcooked carrots and sprouts were a disappointment. The others in the party had no issues at all with their orders.

Food was alright, could have had more flavour on some of the dishes. Service was fairly slow despite being the only ones in the restaurant. Staff could have been more knowledgeable

Genuinely amazing food from the festive menu, get the brisket yorkies they’re a game changer! Amazing service from Emma. Truly a lovely evening with great food drink and atmosphere. Thankyou :)

Always use this pub when in the area and it is always 5* went in there for breakfast this morning and we were not disappointed. We were served by Kian and he was attentive and professional without being overbearing. Yet again a lovely experience thank you

Great food staff and atmosphere

I very much enjoyed the atmosphere and staff. It was a nice night. It being located next to the canal is great for an after dinner walk.

The best pub in the area! Excellent location , wonderful decoration and good food. The dedicated and friendly staff members go above and beyond to ensure that every customer feels welcome and well taken care of. I highly recommend it .

Best pub around, staff excellent big shout out for Kieran always happy go lucky top barman, and the food is excellent

Warm and cosy despite the cold weather. Great friendly atmosphere and service. Very festive , decorations look great

Kian is an absolute star made our meal so much better with his humour

Came in for a steak and it was absolutely gorgeous, kian was such a sweetheart and made us smile the whole way through

Laura,my server was excellent. Beautiful food in lovely surroundings.

Roast potatoes had been around to long and gone chewy. We were brought the wrong hot puddings and they were cold too. lol

Food was great - but again only luke warm. This is the second time this has happened. I believe the food came from the kitchen hot - but was put on cold plates. So halfway through eating, the food was only luke warm. Please put the food on hot plates. Most other restaurants do this. However, it's a nice place to eat and would recommend.

Chose here to celebrate our anniversary. Very slow poor service. A couple of staff were too busy chatting to care. Good food, shame we couldn't wait any longer for a desert.

Had a good time would recommend

A very poor night for my grandaughter,s birthday spoiled by slowness, poor food and service.

Lovely place! Great atmosphere and nice food 🤙. Dog friendly as well. Very welcoming staff.

Gorgeous area, lovely restaurant, such awesome service and GREAT food

Fabulous for food, atmosphere and service

Visited Friday night and the food was A-mazing!!! Service was very attentive & the team very friendly. Will be back.

Only two ales available on Draft. Not much of a choice if one is off.

Beautiful place to have a drink outside

The male member of staff that served us was excellent and went out of his way to make sure I was ok as I have Yeast and soya allergies.He was polite,helpful and nothing was too much trouble.This was the first meal we have had but will definitely be going again as we have moved within the area.The food was excellent.

Nice place to visit next to River Trent . Staff is always welcoming.

Great food, very good waiting staff. Really nice pub with a lovely garden and near to walks along the canal. Parking and easy to find.

Nice chain pub type place. One of the best Sunday roasts I've had at a restaurant though. Will go again.

Nice food...good ambience.. friendly, smiley staff. Excellent salad with pomegranate seeds etc.. Beef burger a bit hard going to chew through. Great calamari .and beetroot aranchini..

The food was fabulous all 5 of us had a different dish. It all arrived together, lovely and hot and we all enjoyed our choice. Even my very fussy 89 year old dad, who ate every piece of his steak. He even ate all of the triple cooked chips which were also delicious. The staff went the extra mile to ensure the desserts and coffees finished the wonderful visit in style. Thank you team for meeting our requests and making the visit a memorable one! Well done 👏

Had a great meal this week with my partner! Sophia was super friendly and very accommodating. Can’t wait to come back, especially with the great discounts on the app!

We visited on a busy Saturday, despite the kitchen having issues caused by the weather and a mix up with our booking from our side the staff were amazing at accommodating us. We had a wonderful meal, all the staff were helpful and friendly. Thank you for a fabulous experience.

Great food and lovely cosy atmosphere

We drove up for Sunday lunch and a walk by the river. We had three courses as well as drinks, and were taken care of by several lovely servers, including Katie who was fab. Our camembert starter was delicious, and the rib-eye steak was incredible, absolutely melt in the mouth. I really enjoyed my pork belly Sunday dinner as well, very flavourful, would be helpful to be served with a steak knife though as it was difficult to cut with the normal dinner knife! Had the mini desserts and hot drinks to round it off, a great visit, we’ll be back! :)

Popped in this afternoon on a bike ride. Fist time I've been here but still definitely go again. It was a beautiful place to stop and sit in the garden and inside was beautiful as well. I saw other people's food coming out and it looked delicious. I'll definitely be coming back again

Plenty of outside seating for when the sun shines, as well as inside tables. We enjoyed a variety of lunchtime snacks which we ordered online via the Trent Lock app. Only snag was the onion rings did not arrive with the order and we had to ask for them. Food all freshly made and tasty. Good choice of soft drinks and non alcoholic beers. A pleasant pub by the canal

Only went for a drink so cannot comment on food and service. Beer garden was quite busy but it was one of our nicer days..

Prompt and friendly service. Good manu choices, great beer.

I haven't been for years and it was really refreshing to visit The Trent Lock. I could not fault the food...it was brilliant. I had the steak and was cooked perfectly. The staff were attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and a really nice place to have a meal. I will definitely be returning.

Called in for a quick pint. A very lovely and friendly pub and dog friendly

Great service by Katie, great food, amazing pub

i was served by a girl called georgia a few days ago and she was lovely and her service was amazing, she was always happy to answer my questions regarding the menu, really made my experience there amazing

We walked down from Attenborough and were looking forward to a good pub feed - we weren't disappointed. Our server, Lucie, was very helpful and friendly. Sat outside with our dog and everything was spot on - food was good and all eaten up, and the drinks were perfect. Well worth the walk.

We had a lunch today, the food was delicious. And Sophia provided us a nice and professional service. We had a great time.

Everything was very good at the trent lock when I visited. The two people who helped me feel very welcome and gave excellent service was Georgia.

Georgia and Caitlin were fabulous and made us laugh. Would definitely recommend and food was lovely

Came in for breakfast, there's a great variety of options and the food I ordered was great! Lucie was the waitress that served me and she was very kind!

Nothing was to much trouble for our server Georgia. Polite and worked with a smile on her face

Honestly the best place i've been a woman Lucie came up to me to help me get my order and that and it was a very kind and warming place to be around and the food was excellent i'll definetly come back again if given the chance

Came in recently for some drinks and a bit of food, it was such a good atmosphere and our server Georgia was amazing. Would highly recommend!

Quite nice shop. Really enjoyed my meal and the waitress Lucie was a darling.

My waitress Lucie saved my life. I thought I'd be sneaky and bring in some outside food to snack on while I waited for my dazzling meal. I'm a big girl you see, I gotta have those snacks in between meals. But lo and behold, I started to choke on that sneaky snack! I could feel myself turning blue in the face, the world was going dark... and suddenly, a great warmth enveloped me. Lucie had grabbed me and was performing the hemleich maneuver on me! But that's not all, she ended it with the cleanest suplex I've seen in my life! Lucie is a true hero, I'm so happy she was my waitress and was able to save my life.

Recently came here for a family meal. Our server, Lucie, was excellent and was really caring and understanding when it came to helping our autistic child make an order. The food and atmosphere was also really comfortable, and I'm definitely going to come back again!

Awesome experience at Trent lock! The environment is very welcoming, and the service is reliant and speedy. Lilly and Caitlin were especially helpful, everything was done perfectly. Definetely recommend this place for a family dinner.

Had a lovely time, overall nice atmosphere and was served by Sophia; lovely girl and very helpful would go again

I booked a table in the restaurant area and the food was delicious. Thanks to our waitress Sophia, who was very friendly and accommodating, our meal was enjoyable from start to finish. She was super attentive and made our visit delightful! Highly recommended!

Fantastic food, wonderful service. First time somewhere like this. If you visit, ask for Lucie, she'll take good care of you!

Caitlin was very welcoming, friendly and smiley! She’s very knowledgeable in the food and drinks on offer and helped me loads with my dietary needs!

Amazing food, lovely waitress called Georgia who served us our food and drinks, very polite and great customer service! Lovely location with a really nice seating area outside, which is great when it’s warmer weather. Will definitely be coming back & recommending.

Came here the other day and had a fantastic meal, the food was yummy and service was great. Had the pleasure of being served by Georgia, she’s an asset to the company and really did her best to ensure we had a good time, thanks! Will definitely return.

Came for food yesterday the food was lovely and was served by Georgia and she’s quality definitely be returning!

Lovely food, good vibes, kind staff 10/10 would recommend :)

Lovely food and great service from Sophia. Perfect after a windy walk along the canal.

Came in for a meal with some old friends last Sunday and everything was perfect! The Sunday trios were absolutely to die for. Caitlin our waitress was polite and friendly and her customer service skills were top notch. She made everything really special for us and is a great asset to your team! Only down side was a long wait but Caitlin kept us informed on how long it’d be and honestly it is to be expect on a busy weekend! We cannot wait to come again! Thanks Caitlin and the rest of the team!! Xx

Lovely food in nice location. Second visit and already planning our next when travelling south

I booked a table in the restaurant area for today, and the food was delicious, as well as the atmosphere of the place. Thanks to our waitress, Lucie, who was very friendly and accommodating, our meal was enjoyable from start to finish. She was super attentive and made our visit delightful! Highly recommended!

Went in for a drink with some mates and had a great conversation with our server, Lucie, who was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be visiting again and recommending to friends and family

Quite a long wait between courses, not actually problem for us. Delicious food. . Thanks

Overall a bit average, nice location next to Trent, but food very average, plus lots missing from menu, no pizzas- ran out of pizza dough, definitely worth sending chef on a course to learn to make pizza dough, no chocolate ice-cream etc. food took forever to arrive, not very busy just slow, finished main course plates left on table whilst pudding being eaten. Nice location, but just very average, would come back again

Lovely serene spot. Great staff, food and will definitely return.

Fantastic service from Molly! Made our day 😊 Pub itself is very cosy and well laid out and the food was nice too and not at all expensive

Absolutely amazing environment, especially outside in the beer garden, but you can say the exact same about the interior. The food is absolutely amazing, I would especially recommend the steak sandwich! The staff are always lovely, but when it's busy there can be a bit of a wait for food and drinks. The order from the app service works... But I would always recommend going to the bar, because it takes quite a long time for the order to process and arrive.

Went for a lovely meal our waitress Lucie was fantastic would definitely go again 😁.

Went for a birthday meal with family and were greeted with such a friendly welcome by our lovely waitress, Lucie.

food tasted great, good selection, and my server Lucie was very friendly and polite.

Really nice place. The Waitress we had, Lucie, was very sweet and easy to talk to! Definitely will come by again

Had a lovely time in here. Had the most wonderful server called Sarah who really made the experience!

We hadn't planned to come in, but as we passed through we thought this was a lovely spot to get a drink. The seating outside is great and perfect for the weather we had. The staff were great, Sarah who served us directly was happy to answer and questions we had.

Enjoyed a lovely meal with a glass of fizz by the water this afternoon! Caitlin on the bar was more than attentive and gave us a speedy service! And Lilly was very kind in clearing and wiping our table for us😊

I visited here a few days ago and the food was lovely with a stunning atmosphere.The service was fast and friendly. A special shout out to Sarah our waitress who took care of us with such a friendly attitude, wish I could take her to every restaurant I go to.

Absolutely love this place! The team are always super friendly and nothing is ever too much for them!

Great venue, location next to the river, with moorings. I've been coming here for years. Great atmosphere. What I've noticed more and more, irrespective of what day it is, weather, sunny etc. it's the food service that lets it down. Inline with other reviews, foods is overpriced, for the value, not huge portions. Which is acceptable, if the food came out on time. Look only a suggestion, I don't know the full story. Swap the chefs, trail some new cooks and menu. No harm in trying something new. Change is good. Staff are great, Lucy was extremely helpful it's the kitchen that's letting its all down. We ended having to refund all or food, as two couples received food, before us, and we order 15 mins earlier. food was far to late, half portion on fries. For me the chicken burger was far too graesy. More healthier options please. Keep up the good work and professionalism, make some tweaks to the Kitchen/food/chef/price. If the portions stay, change the plates. Too big.

Lovely food and service. Very impressive 👏

Had a lovely dinner the other day and our waitress Lucie was amazing. Would definitely visit again.

Lovely venue - we had an excellent Sunday lunch. Very pleasant manager Mark, and excellent service from our waiter Kian who was lovely with a great sense of humour. Am planning to have our family pre-Christmas meal there so hope it will be as great as this visit!

No issues with the food at all, but on the day, the service was a little lacking. It wouldn't put me off going again, and I'll update the review if the service is better next time.

Absolutely best roast dinner I've ever had. Huge portions come at a price but definitely worth it. 👌

Food and service was first class, especially Sarah who was very professional and friendly. Highly recommend.

Lovely meal with very quick and helpful service.

Wow was so busy but easy to see why great location lovely food and friendly team x

Very nice place. Staff friendly. Slightly overpriced.

Another great visit, such a lovely country pub especially when the sun is shining

A very nicely appointed Bistro Pub. A good range on the menu , A range of non alcoholic drinks are available . The pub is in a very nice location, and there is an extensive garden plus a shelter, so you can enjoy the scenery and a drink at the same time.

Good place for a walk down the canel path only had a scone and tea but was nice to relax and it was quiet and peaceful

Stopped here on way home from holiday, massive beer garden we had roast Sunday dinner very large portions and very tasty 😋

Staff went to further lengths than expected to please. Great place for meeting with friends

Lovely pub in a great setting - very popular when we visited Friday evening BUT So disappointed with slow service and lacklustre, overpriced food served. Will not be returning there to eat anytime soon.
