Your new-look Winchester local pub

Our recently spruced-up pub brings you all the hallmarks of a traditional British pub in the heart of Winchester, expect a properly warm welcome, great beers and ales, and gloriously good food to boot – as well as 10 charming bedrooms.

Think crafty pints (with a good chin wag thrown in) at the bar, sociable Winter cocktails by the fire, working lunches (where the food is as good as the WiFi) and the very best Sunday lunches, with all the trimmings (in Winchester, at least).

Our bedrooms are jam-packed with original features, hotel-y mod-cons, and some gorgeously characterful touches. Perfect for business trip stop-overs, or Hampshire staycations with the whole family (including your four-legged furry friends).

Landlord Ben and his team look forward to welcoming you to the Westgate.

One More Sleep

Two nights are always better than one when you’re staying with us… and this January & February, we’ll make it even sweeter by giving you the second night on us with our much-loved One More Sleep offer.

That’s right, it’s such a hit that we’ve brought it back again –  little bigger, a little better, and a little earlier (so you can plan ahead and snag the best dates available). But one thing’s not changed, One More Sleep is a limited-time offer, so early booking is a no-brainer.

Winter Set Menu

Guess who’s back? You loved our set menu so much we’re bringing it back for 2026. Find it back in the pub from Jan 5th and enjoy 2 courses for £19 or 3 course for £23.

We’ll be celebrating mid-winter seasonality with our pick of produce from across the UK. From South coast mussels, to Bedlam Farm heritage squash, and Yorkshire Triangle Rhubarb, we’ll be kicking off the New Year with another excuse to get yourself down to your local. Available Monday – Friday.

Drink, Dinner & Unwind

Our topped-up two-night winter stay package.

Bed and breakfast, dinner on one night, and two complimentary cocktails, the Sour Cherry Cuba Libre or Espresso Martini on us.

Available for stays until 31st March 2026.
