The Navigation in Burton upon Trent

Ah, The Navigation – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, tucked away near the Trent & Mersey canal and not far from the brewery centre, so you're guaranteed some top-notch pints that go down a treat. From what I've gathered from the reviews, most folks absolutely love the place for its welcoming atmosphere, with pool and darts to keep things entertaining, and a beer garden that's perfect for soaking up the sun or letting the dog join in on the fun. They've got live music and all the sports channels you could want, which really adds to the buzz, especially if you're a Burton Albion supporter. On the flip side, though, there was that one story about some rowdy locals causing a bit of trouble, so it might be worth keeping an eye out if you're in a group and want to avoid any hassle. Overall, it's a solid spot for a pint and a chat, and with such a high rating, I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're in the area – just go in with a positive mindset and you're in for a good time.
