The Lark Rise is a friendly community sports pub at 475 Wimborne Road in Winton, Bournemouth (BH9 2AN). Alongside BT Sport screenings, drink deals and a covered beer garden, it runs a regular entertainment programme: weekly karaoke and a monthly live-music night on the last Saturday of every month, with a PA in place. It's very much a neighbourhood pub with live entertainment rather than a dedicated gig room, but it gives local covers and acoustic acts a reliable monthly stage in the Winton area.
