Dating back as far is 1719, our Grade II listed lovely stands proudly on Keynsham Lock beside banks of the River Avon. Now back open after a sympathetic refurbishment, the old dear is looking as charming as ever.

Step into our cosy abode to a beloved foodie haven, you’ll be greeted by the warm embrace of British classics, prepared with hand-picked ingredients at the peak of their freshness. Our menus celebrate the changing seasons, showcasing delightful specials that pay homage to local harvests.

Conveniently situated just a 10-minute drive from both Bristol and Bath, and just a 5-minute stroll to Keynsham Train Station.

Pete and the team can’t wait to welcome you.

May graces us each year with not one, but two bank holidays.

We’re making the most of these rare-but-oh-so-needed three day weekends and pulling out all the stops so you can fully immerse yourself in the weekend (with no Sunday scaries to contend with).

Head to our what’s on page to see what we have lined up for you.

Grab your shades, leave your worries at home, because the pub is where we make memories and there are some crackers waiting for you these Bank Holidays.

With Father’s Day approaching, we believe that the best way to treat our fatherly figures is to pick up the bill. Whether that be on the day, with us enjoying a Sunday roast in our conservatory (or perhaps a few brews in our garden).

Or by giving the gift of a future round, we have options for you to really treat Dad this year. Our Gift Vouchers allow you to get the gift of some great food and drink, and can be simply purchased on our website.

Skip the mug this year and get him something he’ll really enjoy.

The Lock Keeper is a great spot for those avoiding alcohol (whatever the reason!) With a dedicated 0% beer tap pouring top-quality options like Freedam Estrella 0.0%, you’ll always have a delicious alcohol-free choice. Plus, there are plenty of other low- and no-alcohol options to enjoy, so you can still soak up the lively pub atmosphere with a great drink in hand.
