Rising Sun

This is a good local pub. It has a really cool quirky decor, and has loads of events like Morris dancing, theatre, bring-your-own-cheese evenings and folk music, and the location alongside the canal is gorgeous, with both indoor and indoor seating and tables.

They always have a good selection of local and international craft beers in cans and bottles, as well as on tap. They have a small menu of traditional and Mexican fare, and on Friday evenings there’s a lot of free food doing the rounds. It’s basic food but okay for the price.

Music tends to be classic rock and soul, and is at a low enough volume that you don’t need to shout your conversation.

We always pop in when we’re visiting Berkhamsted or walking along the canal.

Went to this pub as we were looking for somewhere to drink near a riverside/canal. The photos we saw online looks better than it really is. Could do with decorating and better chairs outside. The water in the canal was awful and there was no nice view

Fantastic friendly pub in a great location. Always a new beer to try too! Good cider, friendly staff, come on!

Friendly and snug. A lovely place to finish our Saturday night. Have always enjoyed it when I've been here.

Traditional pub set on the canal. Busy in summer, covered and heated outside area for the winter. Cosy corners inside with plenty of beers and spirits to choose from. There’s always several guys on duty, on Friday go for a random selection of hot snacks that are gifted to customers for free after work. The owners don’t stand for nonsense - i have seen a typical drunken incident and people are barred on the spot.
Lovely spot on a sunny Sunday to nestle away in the corner. Huge regular attendance, you will get to know the same faces in no time.

Wonderful friendly welcoming small local ...even the locals made us feel welcome for a Thursday quiz night

Lovely people, location, range of beers. They offer a very nice ploughman's and nachos too so idea for lunchtime break by the canal. Highly recommended

Top pub, knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff. Lucky enough to enjoy the pub on a warm summer evening and with their beer festival. Sampled the 15 local ales they had on offer. Highly recommended. Great pub, great atmosphere.
