The Crown & Anchor sits at 168 High Street on Winchester's busy Broadway, opposite the Guildhall — an LGBTQ-friendly community pub that welcomes guests from all walks of life. It serves a traditional menu with gluten-free and vegan options, has a beer garden and is dog-friendly. Live music is a regular fixture (the pub runs a 'LIVE MUSIC at The Crown & Anchor' programme), with a grassroots, bring-your-own-gear feel that suits both original acts and covers across mixed genres. A welcoming, inclusive spot for passing trade and regulars alike in the heart of the city.
