Price wise for a pub right by the water side it is very reasonable. Great location to stop and have a pint after a walk along the river side. Great outdoor seating and dog friendly!

Lunch at The Lock Keeper today was without exception first class. They could not have been more accommodating when we decided to eat inside when it became a little chilly in the wind on the beautiful patio area looking out over the river and garden. I cleaned my plate and mopped up the gravy with a great choice of breads and real butter , the sticky toffee pudding and ice cream is delicious .The four of us all had different meals and not one complaint among us. Great service really good food large lovely location beautiful old building large outdoor seating areas. Ticked all our boxes for a lovely 47th wedding anniversary lunch for my friends.Thank you all at The Lock Keeper

Amazing location, prebook! We went for a Sunday roast but was really disappointed. The roast potatoes weren’t crispy at all ( more like boiled potatoes) and the pork belly wasn’t slow cooked so no crackling on top and very fatty. Wouldn’t have a roast here again but would grab a drink by the river. Table service is very fast as you order through the app ( our roasts came within 10 minutes of placing our order).

The food is high quality, but had really had a feeling of being ripped off. £15 for a burger and chips is insane, although the quality is high it’s not high enough to be worth that price, add to that the 12.5% charge on tables of 6+ and it just feels like daylight robbery. There are many places in Bristol offering the same or better quality for less money.

We booked a week ahead for a nice family meal here as we had been told by friends the restaurant was lovely (which having walked through it now it looked lovely) and on arrival we were told we had a table in the pub area and there was a rugby match on so it was full of people shouting and drinking and it was also by the exit and much colder than the restaurant. When asked if we could be moved to the restaurant area as thats what we had booked for, they said no so we had to leave and try and find an alternative place to eat. We had driven 35 minutes to get to the Lock Keeper too. Would not recommend and will not be going again.

A real faff signing in to app however got £10 off but food was a massive disappointment. It used to be lovely. Wild mushroom risotto, sounds lovely but in reality wasn't. Very sparse on the mushrooms and was very salty, just tasted of the seasoning and stock cubes. My friend had the Homemade beef lasagne which she also thought was very poor. We both left half our meals and won't be returning for food anytime soon.

Had a fantastic meal there yesterday. The staff were so friendly and the service was amazing, nothing more could have been done to improve our time at The Lock Keeper. Even our dog was made so welcome, a few little treats were given to him. After our meal we sat outside of the terrace, amazing for December, blankets were available along with heaters. Couldn't recommend a visit to The Lock Keeper enough.

Wow what excellent service. It was a last minute call to go for lunch so we'd not booked anywhere. After trying a few other pubs and being turned away we arrived at the Lockeeper to find there where no tables available. But instead of turning us away we were met by a great guy that made us feel welcome and asked if we'd like a drink and a look at the menu's as he was sure a table would come up soon. He found us a really small table to have our drinks at while he found us a proper dining table. A very kind couple offered to swap the table they had as they weren't eating so the 3 of us could have our meal. (not only are the staff lovely, their customers are too)There were plenty of waiting staff and they were excellent, nothing was too much trouble and service was quick. And the food was delicious. My husband and son said it was the best burgers they'd had. I had ham egg & chip which had good quality ham, lovely fresh eggs and amazing triple cooked chips. I'd highly recommend the puddings too.Thanks Lock Keeper we'll definitely be back again (and book next time 😉)

Spent a couple of hours here celebrating my wifes birthday recently. The location, car parking were all very good, the weather tried it's hardest to disrupt the event but failed miserably. Our meals were all very good washed down with a good selection of ales and wines. A special mention must go to the manager who was a very understanding and generous host. We will certainly look forward to returning in the not too distant future.
