Large multi-roomed, canal side pub, taking its name from the historic double-width lock on the adjacent Trent & Mersey Canal. Food is served every day 12noon to 9pm. Outdoor seating at front of pub, alongside the canal, and on a balcony. A quiz is held on Wednesday evenings. One of two "stack" pubs, built on two levels, in Middlewich. What was the lower level, canal side bar is now a separate and busy coffee shop. The pub is popular in summer months with boaters coming through the town as well as local clientele. It is also a popular venue during the town's annual music festival in June. Timothy Taylor's Landlord is always available alongside one or two other changing cask beers.
