Happy World Cider Day! 🍎

Whether you’re loyal to a crisp pint of Thatchers Gold, prefer the hazy side of life, or fancy trying something new, there’s never been a better excuse for a cider.

And just in time for summer, we’ve got two limited-edition pours on the bar: Stan’s Big Apple and Stan’s Cheddar Valley – seasonal specials packed with Somerset character and only here for the sunny months.

So, what’ll it be? Crisp, cloudy, sweet or sharp? Pull up a chair, grab a pint, and raise a glass to the humble apple. 🍻☀️

We love welcoming four-legged visitors, whether they’re showing off their latest frisbee catch like Dave🥏, joining you for a post-walk pint, or simply supervising lunch from under the table.

Dogs are welcome in our garden, on the decking, and in both bars. If you’re booking a table and bringing your furry friend along, just let us know when you book so we can make sure everyone’s comfortable. 🐾🤍

Just 2 weeks to go until the World Cup kicks off and we’re getting ready for the big games. Our snug and front bar TVs are prepped, the Guinness is conditioning nicely, and the atmosphere’s set for long pints and good football.🍻

Grab a table on our website, or just turn up on the day - but don’t miss it.

Father’s Day is just around the corner 🍻

Long lunches in the conservatory, sunny afternoons out on the terrace, and time spent together by the river.

Join us at The Lock Keeper for a Sunday done properly, with hearty plates, cold pints, and space to settle in and stay a while. And if the garden’s calling, our pizza oven will be firing too, serving hand-stretched pizzas fresh from the oven.

Tables are available to book in the conservatory, while our garden is always open for walk-ins if you fancy a more relaxed afternoon by the water.

This World Bee Day, we’re pouring our Beesou Spritz - a bittersweet blend of British honey aperitif, natural botanicals, and raspberry sweetness, made for sipping in the sunshine. 🍯✨

Crafted with sustainably sourced fermented honey and plenty of buzz-worthy flavour, it’s our way of raising a glass to the bees doing the hard work behind the scenes. 🐝

Golden Yorkies, gravy-poured-to-order, and the kind of Sundays that turn into all-afternoon catch-ups.

Our roasts tend to fill up fast, so we always recommend booking ahead - but if a last-minute roast craving hits, we keep space for walk-ins on the decking and in the front bar. 🍽️🍗
