What customers say?

“ On this crisp and misty October morning (Sunday) we decided to have a walk and get a cup of tea with a view. We opted for the King’s Lock Tea rooms in Aylestone. A bit difficult to find with Google maps, but for those travelling by car, once in the car park, cross the small bridge, drop down onto the canal and turn right. Walk along the canal for 5 minutes and you’ll reach the Locks and the tea room. Parking is free but the spaces are limited. It is NOT wheelchair friendly, as there is a small trek to reach the destination and a few steps and steep climbs. The outdoor seating area is clean and dog friendly and there is a small selection of food stuffs available. We opted for scones with clotted cream and jam and a couple of coffees. Not badly priced at £15 for all. The walk, the view and the novelty, all make this a destination to visit again. ”

“ Me and my partner came here yesterday as an early birthday treat. The staff were lovely and welcoming The cafe was so cute and cosy and I loved seeing all of the quirky teapots around. We were absolutely stuffed with sandwiches and a yummy variety of cakes. The lovely staff member was very kind and accommodating and we had a genuinely lovely time. We will definitely be coming back soon. Thank you for having us x ”

“ Went down for a look because I was working in the area, besides the Great Central Way and the Aylestone Packhorse Bridge there isn’t much to chose between what was the best about being here… Then there was Kings Lock Bridge 104, Lock 38 and the Kings Lock Tearooms … I only had time for a Latte, which was absolutely perfect. I loved the staff, immediately took my order, the setting is perfect, dripping with history and all in a setting fit for… what for it… A King (or whoever it is you desire to be!) ”
