About The Waterwitch

The multiple-award-winning Waterwitch gastro-pub is situated on the picturesque Lancaster Canal, a five-minute stroll away from the hustle and bustle of the historic city centre. Originally converted from purpose-built stables in 1978, it’s a destination for all seasons with a huge outdoor seating area for those lovely spring/summer days and a cosy log fire and twinkly fairy lights to welcome you in the colder months. A large range of high-quality dishes are on offer ranging from Great British pub classics to Continental cuisine. Sunday roasts are served every week and they have a good range of pizzas, burgers, and their very popular deli boards - perfect for sharing. Specials which feature over the weekend are a highlight too. The Waterwitch is also well known for its cask ales with rotating beers over seven hand-pulls. More than 70% of the ales come from breweries less than 50 miles away. There is also an extensive gin and whisky range and a vast wine offering. Allergies and intolerances are catered for and there is a separate gluten-free menu available.

The food and service were fine but wheelchair accessibility not great. The cobbles in front of the door were very difficult to negotiate in a wheelchair and the disabled toilet is too small and there’s a wall jutting out right in front of it! A more thoughtful approach to disabled access at this pub is needed I think.

Absolutely love it at the Water Witch! Great food, very reasonable price (especially from the lunch menu on weekdays), friendly and helpful staff. Brilliant location by the canal. It’s dog friendly too! Highly recommended!

Had lunch. Chose a pizza which was very nice and some chicken and bacon dirty fries. All very tasty. The people we were with chose a beef ciabatta and a pork ciabatta. They enjoyed their food as well. Service was good.
