The Forest of Bere in Winchester

Awesome people, awesome staff. Friendliest pub I've ever been too. AWESOME!

Nice pub real ales good atmosphere

Very nice place... quaint with a little room for a game of pool, staff pleasent and food is lovely it's a shame they only do lunches but I would recommend this little place it's lovely, took my mother in law and family and they loved it too.

Great country pub ,beer was good and people were friendly was so nice to relax and get back to near normal

Lovely country pub. Standard prices for the area but service can be a little slow. May attribute this to the adjustment to COVID rules. Would recommend for a nice drink.

Disagree totally.Had three pints in their, first Amstel one smelt a little eggy, but exceptable, the second smelt awful, so sent it back.Third pint was a Carling, seemed ok & lively enough, but decided to go flat quite quickly.Speaking to other regulars, the general consensus is either the pipes to the beer need a well overdue clean, or the glass dishwasher needs a clean, to stop the glasses smelling of eggs, or both.The pub has a lot of loyal customers who keep coming back, but my opinion is it could be run so much better & cleaner, to give the customers a more enjoyable experience.

Quality boozer, quality staff, decent beer, good prices and always a great atmosphere. Top class effort all through lockdown helping the community and supporting those that needed help. Highly recommend.

Nice wee country pub, with a decent selection of drinks, including local Ales and Gins. Didn't eat any food but would say this is more of a drinking pub, seems livelier in the evenings.

This is a really nice pub I would recommend. The next time I visit I will be trying out there Sunday roast which IV heard you must book for in able to get a table as it is so popular! Pleasant staff and an open fire all add to the charm of this meeting place. A good sized car park and a garden with play area for the children to have plenty of fun in. Lots to offer, just a Shame they don't do breakfast menus. I think that would be a real hit!

Amazingly, in one week I've discovered 2 truly genuine old style British pubs. The Forest of Bere is the second one.Wonderful old world charm, superb choice of drinks...and although on this visit I only sampled the Abbott's, the menu looked both good and well priced.Staff were very friendly...has sports channels and is currently showing The Six Nations. Well worth a visit...and it's on a bus route should you have that option. I'll definitely be back again.
