THE time has almost come.
Wintonians will soon be able to get their hands on a cold draught pint for the first time in months.
Some of the city's pubs will be opening their beer gardens from April 12.
Here is a list of where you can book:
1. Bishop on the Bridge
The pub in Bridge Street will be offering outdoor service in line with the Government roadmap.
Visit their website to book by clicking here.
2. The Black Boy
Alright, the Wharf Hill boozer technically isn't opening until April 14.
But there's nothing stopping you from booking a table now by calling 01962 861754.
3. The Queen Inn
This Winchester watering hole is not taking bookings – but its garden will be opening on April 12.
Just turn up and try your luck.
4. The Willow Tree
The pub in Durngate Terrace has possibly one of the best beer gardens in the county.
With streams running either side, it's the place to be when the sun is shining.
Call 01962 877255 to book.
5. The Rising Sun
This boozer in Bridge Street has just rebranded its menu – so what better time to visit?
Book by clicking here.
6. The Fulflood Arms
This popular local has very limited space outside, so will be open on a first come first serve basis.
The team have been posting to social media – it's clear they are excited to welcome back customers.
7. The Bell Inn
Just off St Cross Road, this brilliant boozer has a lovely garden, too.
Reserve a table by clicking here.
8. Hyde Tavern
Tucked out of the way in Hyde Street, this pub isn't just known for its music but its garden too.
Book by calling: 01962 862592.
9. Alfie's
Students or resident – this beer garden is always bustling.
Book by clicking here.
It is unclear whether The Golden Lion in Alresford Road or the Eclipse Inn, The Square, will open. The Chronicle has contacted both pubs.
Most others will be able to open their doors from May 17.
The Green Man will reopen on June 21.
