I agree with the previous reviewer. This is a cafe - and all the reviews are for a cafe. Online there is a "retreat centre" behind the cafe that is for hire. I have tried to get the category changed but my request was rejected.
Anyway, the cafe is rather good. The cake is expensive but the slices are huge and the quality excellent. An unusual location - you can only get here by walking some distance along the towpath. You can park (for a fee) in the Coy Carp car park - about a 10 minute walk away. The cafe is only open at weekends.
The cafe itself is rustic. The seating is outside. There is a toiet - and the cafe has an alcohol licence.
A very nice thing to do on a Sunday afternoon - especially if it is a (rare) sunny one.

A GREAT PLACE TO VISIT ON A SUNNY AFTERNOON

We seem to have a category error here since everyone's writing about the cafe rather than some hotel of the same name (might be close by). So, on London Loop section 12 this is around 90 minutes out of Uxbridge. As such it's in exactly the right place and the setting is perfect - it's an old lock-keeper's cottage. Coffee and cake was just the right thing at that stage.

One every 3 months I walk along the canal and I always drop for a coffee and bacon roll. Both of these are possibly the best I’ve ever had (although there are other great coffee houses out there) but the bacon roll is awesome. Highly recommended to just sit by the canal and watch the world, and some narrow boats, go by.

Jacks Mill Cafe

I have stopped off for a coffee & bacon roll on a regular basis  while cycling along the canal, superb location, friendly staff, great service & always someone to chat to or watch the boats go through the lock.

Discovered Black Jack's while walking along the canal and stopped for a coffee. What a gorgeous place to stop and enjoy the view of the canal lock and very good coffee too. Since our discovery we have been back a couple of times for coffee and homemade cake and also for a light lunch. Food is pleasant, rather than spectacular and served nicely by the staff. This is not a fast food restaurant and service on busy days may not be the quickest but this is fully acceptable given the nature of the venue. Catering is largely home cooked food which means that the staff know exactly what ingredients are in their meals and cakes, which is a massive bonus for those with food allergies. Prices are very reasonable. Black Jack's is dog friendly and ideal for walkers like us and the canal users. I am not sure if their is any indoor seating but there is adequate outdoor tables, chairs and settees, some under cover. I believe that there may be rooms available for overnight stays but would advise anyone interested to check with the venue. We have greatly enjoyed our visits here and will certainly be back.

Lovely little coffee venue

I can’t describe how perfect this place is. My partner surprised me with an afternoon tea for our anniversary and I was blown away with the stunning set up. We had afternoon tea on the patio outside which overlooked the river where you could see herons, kites and other amazing birds flying over and behind the river there were sail boats. The food was amazing and the staff were so attentive but the setting and scenery was absolutely stunning and just made this the most perfect day. The best afternoon tea ever and a truly unforgettable experience.

Perfect

Tucked away near a lock on the canal, this hidden cafe is well worth a detour. A great outlook in comfy chairs overlooking the lock, and a great selection of food and drink. It has reopened again recently and many are pleased.

Tucked Away

We arrived on our paddle boards. We had a warm welcome from the very friendly staff and sat outside in the sunshine. The coffee was good and a most welcome refreshment before our paddle back to Rickmansworth.

Great place for coffee & cakes

Just popped in for a coffee and a cake on a particularly long and footsore stretch of the London Loop walk.  We were met with a friendly smile and a proper welcome for both walker and doggy companion.  The sort of place that you would go well out of your way to revisit - and we will.  Many thanks.

Perfection in a canalside cafe

We stopped by for coffee and pastries on a walk along the canal. Delicious coffee and apple pastries, and lovely friendly service. Plenty of outdoor garden seating and lovely surroundings. There was plenty of choice of pastries and cakes, and there was also a more lunch-type menu available with quiches and paninis.
