Dating back as far as 1719, our Grade II listed lovely stands proudly on Keynsham Lock beside the 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.

The team can’t wait to welcome you.

Cosy nights call for cocktails, and as we move into spring, our bar team have shaken up the perfect line-up.

From timeless signatures like the much-desired Espresso Martini to seasonal serves like the indulgent Cherry Bakewell Martini, there’s something for every mood. We also have mindful blends and 0% heroes, so you can sip all the flavour without the fuzz. Whether you’re going classic, curious, or alcohol-free, our cocktail list this season is worth raising a glass to.

It’s the season of gentle sunshine and longer days, when pints taste even better with friends, fresh roasts and seasonal dishes bring comfort, and board games stretch out those leisurely Sunday afternoons.

Whether you’re returning from a riverside stroll or simply enjoying a slow day with company, there’s nowhere better to be than in our pub – drink in hand, delicious food on the table, and all the time in the world.

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.
