The Black Boy

We have been known for many years as an interesting and quirky pub, furnished with old tables and chairs, and decorated with an eclectic mix of art, clutter and taxidermy.

Highly recommended. Great selection of real ales . Quirky and original, you will probably spend as long looking at the knick knacks on display as chatting to the locals. Very welcoming. Lovely staff .

It's the unusual bar staff that we find most appealing !! (See pic) great venue for the true English Eccentric

Great atmosphere and layout. Decent prices, best pub in Winchester.

Bernardo Pinto

Don't bother unless you're really just looking for a pub . Stuffed animals everywhere, including the VERY creepy right-anterior-paw-of-an-elephant and a giraffe-from-the-mid-neck-up.

Katty

Lovely roast, the beef was tender, the potatoes were crisp, and the Yorkshire pudding were just amazing, and everything for £8.50,... in Winchester, bargain!

King Alf

One of the best pubs in the city . Cool/quirky vibe and a great selection of food and ale .

Eren Akın

Their own Black Boy Ale is great.

Good selection of real ale (inc. Hubby's fave 'Summer Lightening') and some good ciders on tap too. Plus, some interesting decor choices...
