Sweet Corner in Winchester

Great Pub, friendly staff, fantastic food & a great range of local ales. Dog friendly always greeted with a smile 😁

All good considering a big crowd of us to cater for at the same time! The natchos starter was epic

Unfortunately, The Bakers Arms in Winchester falls short of expectations. The beer selection is uninspiring, with a lack of variety and little effort to offer anything beyond the most basic options. If you're hoping for a decent pint or something unique, you’ll likely leave disappointed. However, the bigger issue is the overall atmosphere and customer service. There’s an unwelcoming feel to the place, with staff who seem disinterested at best and outright rude at worst. Rather than creating a warm, friendly environment, interactions often feel like you're inconveniencing them just by ordering a drink. It’s not the kind of place where you’d want to linger. With so many great pubs in Winchester, there’s little reason to return to The Bakers Arms. A pub should be about more than just serving drinks—it should offer a welcoming experience, and sadly, this one misses the mark.

I’m a regular Caffè Nero customer across the UK, but unfortunately, this branch in Winchester was a disappointment. The place didn’t feel clean, and the staff weren’t particularly friendly or welcoming. I didn’t feel comfortable during my visit. The coffee was okay, but the overall atmosphere left a lot to be desired. Definitely not up to the usual Nero standards I’m used to

An historic pretty pub in the centre of Bishops Waltham. Good food & beer. Plenty of seating, dogs welcome. Hotel not used.
