The Griffin Godshill

21/10/2026

After some incredible years, we’re closing our doors for a short while.

The Griffin has been more than just a pub – it’s been a place where we’ve celebrated the small moments and the big occasions together. From birthdays, after-work drinks and unforgettable nights, we’ve shared so many special memories, and we want to say a heartfelt thank you to our guests and the local community for your loyalty and support.

We’d love you to join the team on Friday 6th November for a final ‘cheers’. Bar open till 11pm.

While it’s farewell from our current team, this is only the end of one chapter. After a brief closure, the venue will be reopening under new management and will continue serving the community for many more years to come. The new team look forward to welcoming you all back very soon.
