The King Alfred Pub

Visited and stayed one night to visit Christmas markets, were greeted and accommodated with ease, room cosy, and just perfect… Had booked a table for evening meal, which was amazing…. Staff and food, couldn’t ask for more! Will visit again. Breakfast absolutely perfect for what we needed. Nice situation quiet area walking distance of town centre… Only negative noisy guests early hours.

The pub was v cold. There was possibly an issue with the heating/boiler, which may be unavoidable, but we felt we should have been warned on a chilly winter day. Had to wear coats, not conducive to a relaxed lunch. Rather disappointing menu - too many sandwiches

This pub with rooms above is a great place to stay. Walking distance into the town centre. The rooms are well decorated and very comfortable. I have stayed here 2 years in a row when we go to a festival in the fields literally opposite the pub. The staff are very friendly. Food a lovely but a bit pricy and the drinks are good pub prices. I will definitely be staying here again.

Lovely stay at this pub. Excellent bar and we were able to take advantage of spacious garden area for meal on first evening. Dinner was good and service efficient and pleasant. Room was clean and comfortable. Be aware breakfast is served in room. No problem for us- more time for visits to tourist sites! We will certainly be back

This traditional pub is located a short distance from the railway station. It is clean with a nice wooden decor. The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming. It is not loud and has a good vibe. The staff are friendly and give you a sense of meeting friends. The service is quick and attentive. The drinks are good with a wide selection available. The food is plentiful and well-cooked. A perfect pub for socialising and enjoying a wonderful experience.

We had a really enjoyable stay here whilst attending the national hospital radio conference at the University. We were impressed from the very start, the pub is in such a lovely, pretty area and looks charming from the outside. We had a warm welcome despite our arrival being in the middle of a busy Friday night it was no trouble at all. The room was absolutely wonderful and beyond my expectations for a pub. Lovely, cosy decor and the bed was even comfier than a Premier inn and that's saying something!! Lovely touch to have good quality biscuits, tea and coffee on hand and my partner really enjoyed the granola. The bathroom was lovely and clean and a great size, with a lovely powerful shower. Despite some other reviews we were really surprised at how quiet the room was. We are night owls anyways and stayed out until after last orders. It soon quietens down after that so we had two great sleeps. The staff are an absolute credit, making us feel at home and were really friendly and great to have a laugh with. We had two lovely meals as well and some great wines and Thatchers which was very well kept. Pies are awesome and the Sunday roast was something else. 👌 Yes it's not cheap but you certainly get great quality for the price which is appreciated. We would love to come back to Winchester to explore some more and will be sure to stay here again. Thank you. 😊
