The Wykeham Arms

Inspector comments
"Rustic, historic town pub with contemporary grub."
Overview
Down a narrow Winchester side street sits The Wykeham Arms; historic, charming, full of character. Built in the 18th century it has plenty of old memorabilia on the walls, and cosy open fires. On offer are simple options, 'Home Comforts' on the menu, but the kitchen can and does turn out food of a higher and more refined style.

About the area
Hampshire’s varied landscape of hills and heaths, downlands and forests, valleys and coast are without rival in southern England. Hike across the chalk downland of the north Hampshire ‘highlands’, meander along peaceful paths through unspoilt river valleys of the Test, Itchen, Avon and Meon, or explore the lonely salt marshes and the beautiful medieval forest and heathland of the New Forest
