We are tourists here for a couple of nights, this burger place is amazing. We had a mix of the burgers and loaded fries and chicken tenders. Really it was up there with the best we've had, like ever. Kudos

The wings are to die for, so crunchy and loaded with flavour. We had the Bacon Cheeseburger - wow - perfectly crispy bacon, perfect pattties and loaded with cheese. My husband had the Combo Burger, perfect seasoning on the chicken burger (which was super juicy!), and beef patties too. The loaded fries are exceptional - we have tried the beef, garlic parmesan and the cheesy bacon (my fave) and they are all mint! Kids meals and milkshakes are great too, good portion sizes and mine loved the Frank and the burgers. I've tried other sides too and all I can say is that (as you can tell) it is my favourite takeaway in the High Peak area and beyond. The way they season their food is immense...you can tell they put a lot of effort in and the place itself looks like it belongs in Manchester's Northern Quarter. Can't sing it's praises enough! 10/10 Grill 13.

Great location. Friendly greetings from barge owners, cyclists and walkers along the canal path into Whaley Bridge and New Mills. The views were spectacular even on a dull day. The Navigation Inn was welcoming, and dog friendly, but best if you keep them off the seating as the path can be muddy. The landlord looked after the beer well and there was plenty of choice. We both had the pie of the day and we're very happy with our choice. Lots of meat and super chips and the cauliflower and carrots were cooked to perfection. The gravy was superb ***** 5 stars. Our young waitress was very friendly and polite and overall the evening was a lovely experience. On our second night I had Bali chicken which again contained lots of meat with stir fried veg in a sweet sticky sauce, and my husband had fish and chips. Again the beer was good. If you enjoy walking or cycling while looking at gorgeous scenery then this is definitely worth a stay although we were in our motorhome. It's free to stay if you inform the landlord if your vehicle reg and go in the pub for a few drinks or a meal. Believe me it's worth it.

Four of us had a meal in this charming pub today. Two gammon steaks, one steak and ale pie, and a burger, plus all the trimmings of course. My wife and I, and our friends, eat out often, in all types of establishments. We decided that our meal was one of the best pub meals we have had for a very long time. It was also very good value for money. The gammon steak for example was big, thick, succulent and beautifully cooked. The pie was delicately flavoured and had plenty of steak. Don't think that trimmings in the Navigation Inn are considered less important. They were all delicious additions. The landlord may initially not be a man of many words but he is friendly and an excellent host. The lady who served our meals, asked if everything was OK and cleared the table was friendly, talkative and smiley. All in all, the Navigation Inn is a pub that you really should visit when you're in the area and want to have a wonderful meal and a good time. By the way, we are not local so this review is completely objective.

Great pub on the canal-side. Very cosy atmosphere with friendly staff and excellent food. I ordered a sandwich & was surprised when it arrived with plenty of chips & coleslaw as well. I'd definitely return if I visit the area again.

We have just returned from our trip to the Peaks where we were visiting family who have just welcomed a baby. We stayed in the near by Navigation inn and found it comfortable and welcoming. There was a small mix up when booking due to our daughter being 16 and this altering the cost of the family room however we were contacted to discuss this before arriving so we made alternative arrangements for her to stay with family. The rooms are slightly cold but this is due to the building being old and the bedding was adequate to keep us warm at night. We found everyone including locals to be friendly and we would stay again in the future.

We stayed in a cottage nearby. We were looking for a local pub nearby that was dog friendly and children friendly, which also served food. We were not disappointed. We have an autistic teenager and a child who is a picky eater. Both really enjoyed their meals, which is a rearity. The staff were friendly and helpful. The locals were friendly as well. This is the only pub we have been to locally that the kids have not wanted to leave after eating their meals and have asked if we will come back to . Definitely be coming back as we only live about an hours drive. We will definitely be back as the kids and the dog definitely enjoyed their stay and their meal there.

Clean and comfortable, had the best night's sleep. All the staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. Couldn't have done more for us. The breakfast was really excellent, and we're already looking forward to staying again. They are having a refurb soon so it could, possibly,be even better!! Now one of our favourite places to visit.

Firstly I would disregard all the reviews. We went in late on a Sunday evening to a pristine pub, attentive staff and delicious roast beef Sunday dinner. The food was faultless and at a super reasonable price too. I will certainly be coming again

Lovely little Indian restaurant tucked away in Whaley Bridge. The food is absolutely spot on every time we go, generous portions and always happy to accommodate special requests. Staff are friendly, food is speedy and you can bring your own drinks, what's not to like?!

Had take away so haven't rated the atmosphere. Food was fresh, hot and very tasty! We ordered over the phone and the food was ready when i arrived. I asked how much extra poppadoms would be as we forgot to order them... the waiter gave me them for free and rounded the cost down to £20! Great service. My wife said it was the best Indian she had had for a long time.

Great food. Much better than any around my area. Prices are very good too. Big portions. Some pressure to pay with cash, though I did use my card. Can take own drinks that saves a bit of money.

Saw the place while passing so stopped in, party of four plus two dogs. We were warmly welcomed, staff were friendly, food was freshly prepared and came quickly. Plenty of parking and inside area space to accommodate dogs. They have a part of the menu especially for vegetarians. I'd definitely recommend stopping here and would come again if in the area.

First time visiting and they didn’t disappoint. Excellent food and Service. The Starter’s were the size of a main meal in some pubs - I had Creamy Garlic Mushrooms and my Husband had the fishcakes. I then had sirloin steak which came with a large portion of mushrooms, lots of beautiful thick chips, onion rings etc. my Husband went with the Mammoth Mixed Grill which came on a big oval platter😳🥴 all the food was well cooked the way we requested and couldn’t fault a thing. Unfortunately, I couldn’t eat most of my chips and onion rings so they were kind enough to put them into a takeout tray for me(I would normally just leave them but these were too good)This pub was an excellent find whilst in the area. They offer a good varied menu to suit all tastes.

Banging classic village banter, and thumping 90s dance music, good ale and serves later than all other pubs in Whaley Bridge, exactly what a man needs after a busy shift. The bar maid is hot to trot too 🤪😎

Lesley and team have done an amazing job making this pub welcoming and friendly. Really good atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks! A real variety of drinks too with soft drinks on tap . Great live music, events and great company! First night out in a long time after having baby, was absolutely brilliant!
