Lock Keeper

Keynsham Road, Keynsham, Bristol, BS31 2DD
Lock Keeper

About

Situated just a 10-minute drive from Bristol and Bath, and a short walk from Keynsham train station, the Lock Keeper has it all; a stunning riverside location, with a huge beer garden, serving freshly prepared British food.

Whether it’s a Sunday roast, a birthday dinner or a lunch time catch up that you have planned, they've got you covered.

The huge beer garden is simply the best place to be on a sunny afternoon. Imagine sitting there with a glass of something cold, listening to the river Avon drifting past, the water falling over the weir, and the smell of their wonderful home-cooked meals filling your nostrils.

Even in the winter months, our garden provides a wonderful look-out from the decking area. Why not enjoy a pint or a glass of wine under the warmth radiating from the canopy heaters?

      Ran out of everything we wanted, our second options came out cold, but by the time it arrived we were just grateful to be fed, this isn’t the first time we’ve been disappointed, I am never returning. Read full review
