@ericVI better be up for this.
Or Soul Cellar (RIP) for their great alternative karaoke night.
Once sang Whip It at karaoke there and a man came and congratulated me for the performance in the street a week later. Reckon it’s what Ed Sheeran feels like ALL THE TIME.
Mate i was at the dungeon every thursday for about 5 years
Kinky
What would you say are currently the top five pubs in Winchester? I will be taking my Australian girlfriend to see the beautiful English Middle-classness I grew up surrounded by in May but haven’t been there in 5 years and haven’t lived there for 15 so some advice would be very helpful indeed!
Overdraft for sludge beers and tacos
The Fulflood is hands down my favourite pub here.
The Queen Inn has a great beer garden and is perfect on a nice day.
The King Alfred
The bishop on the bridge is right next to the river and has a good patio garden. Is a Fuller’s pub so booze is normal range.
Incognito is great for a cocktail, but you have to book.
Nice one, cheers. Used to live about equal distance from the Railway and the Fulflood so be easy to drop in there for a pint mid tour of my youth. I know where they all are except Overdraft and Incognito so I’ll look them up now!
Drop into Pi if you fancy pizza. Or Three Joes near the Eclipse for sourdough pizza. Coffeelab have a few coffeeshops around (one on little minster street, one called the square opposite slug and lettuce). Best coffee around. There’s also a little place off Parchment street called Flat Whites which does a decent coffee. Opposite piecaramba, down a little courtyard/alley. There’s also a place on Jewry street call Hoxton Bakehouse which does the best pastries. Coffee is alright in there too.
Need anything else, just shout.
In.
I’m going down o Southampton to attend that MC Lars gig with my llittle sister and visit my family.
Would probably be up for a pre or post gig booze with some DiSers.
Great thanks mate. Really appreciate those pointers. I’m sure I will have more questions about modern day Winchester to enquire if you over the next couple of months!
Might set one up in Glasgow on the same night and get involved.
A multi location live event
Chiming in to say 30 March is a) a Friday, b) a Payday.
I’m good with either Winch (home), or Southampton (work) and I like beer and music and DiSers.
Not for everyone. 10th for me. I may be very skint by then
checks date today
12TH!
WHAHEY BEERS ON RICH, SEE YOU AT THE FULFLOOD
I would suggest we gather around the MC Lars gig since some are already going but i’m pretty sure I dont want to go to an MC Lars gig.

The Eclipse isn’t in your top 5 Winch pubs? wow
a close second is the black dog
3rd is a bag of cans and a schmoke on jimmy’s bench in the arbour
Just never really taken to it. Think there are better city centre pubs than the eclipse, personally. Normally choose to go somewhere else.
Like the Black Boy (I presume that’s the one you meant? They have so many things named “The Black …”), but it’s a proper winter pub, and the wrong end of town for us.
