This is a great venue and ideally suited to host our punk Rock Opera called Borstal Boy. We would like you to see and hear The Asylum Seekers, with a view to them performing their punk rock opera at a venue of your choice which should be The Heroes. Any suggestions as the the best place in Hampshire ?? let us know ASAP. We were on Express FM (Portsmouth)recently telling the true story. http://youtu.be/AB22V9PXszU You are invited as a special guest to The Admiral Drake on Saturday 28th September for a review of their performance. The Asylum Seekers are the first band to produce a punk rock opera called Borstal Boy, (they are the best punk rock cover band in Hampshire) with a view to play this Opera in HMP Winchester Prison. We would like to perform this opera as a Special Event at The Heroes, either before the prison venue, or after as we would like to invite our very special guests to that event. We have the support of HRH Prince Charles, Caroline Dinenage MP, Mark Hoban MP and Steve Brine MP for Winchester supporting our project.

This isn't a bad pub for a local. The decor is fairly standard, and not that different from a lot of other pubs, even though it can get a bit dingy in this one. I tend to order girly drinks a lot (like Malibu), and locals tend to put me off because I feel like I'd stick out too much, but the staff and landlady are really friendly and have a great sense of humour. I sometimes see families come here in the day on weekends, and for the most part it's a pretty relaxed place to hang out, even on busy nights. Some of the patrons can get a bit noisy when the footie's on etc but apart from that it's a good place to get some food. The pub's right on the edge of the precinct next to the walking subway near McDonalds, so it's easy to get to. read more

really friendly atmosphere with friendly staff. drinks can be a bit pricey but the foods great and worth the money. It does neeed a bit of an overhaul re decor but its clean and roomy and relaxed. U can watch sports events there and they have loads of local bands play on a regular basis. It is a bit 'old-school', more of a blokes who want a quick pint and a chat with thei mates atmosphere, but families are welcome during the day and they do kids food. Always a bonus! read more
