If you like canal walks 🚶♂️ and love country pubs then you must visit here. We had already booked a table at the Fleur de lys for 5.00 so parked up early afternoon and did an hours walk upto Junction 21 were the Stratford canal meets the Grand Union canal, here we had a pit stop at the Navigation Inn for a pint and a rest before heading on back to the de lys for evening dinner 🍽 or tea as we say up north. The outdoor space of the de lys is huge with a flagged seating area then a big tent 🎪 with a bar 🍸 then more tables leading down to the canal and a play area for the kids to play. We had a look at the menu while waiting because the kitchen staff have a break between 3 and 5 so we were ready to get seated inside before it got busy. Plenty to choose from on the menu and I chose one of the homemade pies 🥧 that they are renowned for, absolutely 💯 😋 lovely. The pub itself is very oldy worldy very well staffed good food and drinks 🍸 would recommend booking a table as it does get very busy.

Good parts: the pies were absolutely delicious. The steak and Stilton had the most tender meat I’ve ever had in a pie and my friend had the chicken bacon and leek which she said was great. The pub side of the restaurant is so cosy however we were the other side in the restaurant which is a bit soulless- next to the swinging kitchen door. Service - quite bizarre I’m not sure our waitress is cut out for the hospitality life - forgot to put our order through so we waited an hour for our pies- no apologies, no offer of drinks/ a starter to compensate (I’ve worked in hospitality for years and that’s the bare basic!). In contrast the table next to us had 3 courses in the time we waited… Warm treacle tart was delicious- had with custard instead of ice cream. So would highly recommend for food but request a table in the pub side and service could be a lucky dip!

This pub has a great atmosphere; it was cosy and inviting and full of people. When we arrived, the fire was lit and we were lucky enough to be sat right next to it. I went for the beef and stilton pie which comes with chips, some steamed veg and a big jug of gravy. All the pies are homemade, and at £15, very reasonably priced. The rest of the menu was extensive with plenty of other lighter options if you don't want to commit to a big old pie! My dog was right at home here too. It seems popular with dog walkers as there were quite a few other fluffy companions in the pub at the time. This is a great spot for wholesome, fairly priced food in a lovely setting.

This is an amazing place to come for business, a date or even with family. Private enough for a business luncheon. Public enough for a date. Good for mommy and daddy and the kids and the dog and the neighbour's cat. The waiters were polite and sadly there are no alternatives (for us who don't eat pork). So they can take out the bacon but won't replace with egg or mushrooms or beans. I found it sad for a 5 star place. Tip, get a starter. I know we all want to dive into the drinks and meal. Just a starter you can even share it and you will be proud of yourself for the rest of the year. At least you will have an out of home experience with a life time.

Called in on recommendation of the marina we collected our narrow boat from, the pub was amazing! Although busy, staff were welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable, steak and stilton pie was incredible. A good range of beers to chose from, everything reasonably priced. Loved it so much we ate there again on our return journey, more pies were enjoyed, the following day we collect frozen pies to take home with us. Would highly recommend this charming country pub, with plenty of space inside and out, a great atmosphere, and really interesting history to the place.

We moored next to the Fleur De Lys Inn on the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal for a couple of weeks and enjoyed several meals, all of which were generous portions and mouthwateringly tasty. The home-made pies are amazing! The Inn is lovely inside. Cosy, warm and inviting, especially on the cold days we were there. The staff were all friendly and welcoming, and the draught Guinness is the best I've tasted! Well deserving of the 5 stars. It's just a pity we have to leave the mooring. Thanks for the hospitality. We'll definitely be back! Colin and Shaun.
