The Bishop on the Bridge, Winchester

Large corner pub standing by the bridge over the River Itchen at the bottom of the High Street. It has an open plan modern interior with lots of old pine, an exposed brick fireplace, grey painted tongue and groove and fancy light fittings. The candle powered tables have menus on clip boards and there is also a drinks and wine menu although the kegs are referred to as “Draught” and the cask beers as “Ales”. A Fullers pub so on the four handpumps are their ESB, Bengal Lancer IPA, London Pride and Seafarers, nothing very unusual in the kegs, Peroni, Staropramen, and Leffe being the more exciting, Carling, Becks, Strongbow and Guinness making up the numbers. The smooth is Fullers Honeydew. There are machines, including a cash point, but no screens. The upper floor houses the kitchen and lavatories.
