Drink in Winchester (England)


Drink in Winchester (England)

England is known for its pubs and public houses, and Winchester - being the ancient heart of England - is no exception. Winchester has a good selection of city centre pubs, many of which are noted in the Real Ale bible 'The Good Beer Guide', and a few that are worth taking a stroll and the time to discover - such as the Wickham, The Black Boy and The Bell. This plethora of public houses does not mean that Winchester is saturated with one type of beer. It is in the unique position that there are many brewers represented in the city. Although the best approach is to wander around and to go into the one you like the look of, there are a few - such as the Eclipse and the Black Boy - that may not reveal their delights until you venture inside.
  • The Black Boy, 1 Wharf Hill, tel 861754, . Tucked away on Wharf Hill, off Chesil Street, the pub is still faithful to its origins. Although recognised in most of the well known beer and pub guides, it is still a traditional back-street boozer. Open M-S 11AM-11PM; S 12PM-10.30PM.
  • The Eclipse, 25 The Square, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 9EX, Opposite Winchester Museum, a small cozy pub with colourful characters and a spooky history of hangings and gibbets. Very good value pub food and good quality real ales always available.
  • The Old Vine, 8, Great Minster Street, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 9HA, On the Square near to the Cathedral entrance, this pub offers a suprisingly good selection of real ales although seating can be at a premium and it gives the impression that it would rather be a Bistro than a pub.
  • Bishop on the Bridge, a modern-style pub set in an old building, reasonable selection of drink and moderately-priced food. Very pleasant (especially in the summer, although it can get very busy) patio area by the river.
  • The Old Gaol House, 11-11a Jewry st. Well stocked ales in the citys original prisons governors building, masses of local history adorn the walls - worth a wander with a well earned refresher, pub grub all day, Food 7am-10pm daily and Drink 9am-12am Weekdays, 9am-1am Fridays and Saturdays, 9am-11pm Sundays.
  • Harestock Lodge Hotel (Harestock Losge Hotel), Harestock Lodge Hotel 65 Harestock Road, Winchester, Hampshire, UK SO22 6NX (Hampshire), + 44 (0) 1962 881870, . Harestock Lodge Hotel in Winchester exudes charm offering friendly and relaxed accommodation in Hampshire, critically acclaimed dining and 17 en-suite rooms
