The Bishop on the Bridge is a popular Fuller's riverside pub at 1 High Street, Winchester, sitting right on the River Itchen with a sun-soaked terrace and garden plus sheltered indoor beach-hut seating. It reopened in May following a five-week refurbishment, with a modern dining area serving pub classics, roasts and puddings alongside cask ale, craft beer, gin and cocktails. Music here is a relaxed weekly fixture: every Sunday from 4pm the pub hosts two hours of live acoustic music by the water — an easy-going slot ideal for solo acoustic performers and duos. With its in-house PA and roughly 80-capacity space, it's a polished, well-run room rather than a late-night gig venue.
