The Golden Lion, Winchester

Now a really good pub, will be a shame if it is changed in the near future due to the landlord leaving for pastures new, it should remain a good decent community pub.

One thing I loved was the new pub sign, different on both sides showing views into and out of Winchester behind the lion. Hand painted by a regular apparrently, well done wish more pubs in Winchester had decent signs, instead of surrendering to corporate plastic.

Yep, the smell of the open drains and the barely alive bar staff had the same affect on me as it did on Tina. So depresseed by the whole plce i cn hdly spek.
What a dump this pub is.

Someone has obviously got a chip on their shoulder. This pub is a vast improvement on what it was previously, and with comments like is it a pub or club, I cannot take your review seriously. Real ales, guest beers an extensive wine selection means it is a pub for all tastes. Food is now requested not only from regulars and new customers but from outside organisations for functions and lunches. If we are missing one person, and that is Anonymous who posted the previous comment...it is no loss.
