The Wykeham Arms is one of the most popular pubs in Winchester that retains its charm despite being frequently mentioned in the local press with yet another accolade. It has a great atmosphere, is welcoming and has a strong local following so remember to book if you plan to eat there.
There are 2 pubs on this walk so you could start with lunch at the Black Boy and finish with dinner at the Wykeham Arms. There is also a lovely cafe/restaurant at the cathedral refectory for afternoon tea.

OS MAPS really enhance enjoyment of pub walks and taking one with you is highly recommended. The 1:25,000 laminated Winchester (OS Explorer Map Active) version is our preferred choice for regular walkers but the standard paper 1:25,000 covering Winchester (Explorer Maps) is also suitable.
Explore the ancient capital of Wessex including not only the river and cathedral but 'King Arthur's Round Table' as well. The Black Boy is a popular pub in The Good Pub Guide with an interesting eccentric interior serving traditional food and real ales.
