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.

From timeless favourites like a much-desired Hugo Spritz to seasonal serves made for sunny days, there’s something for every mood. We also offer mindful blends and 0% heroes, so you can enjoy all the flavour without the buzz.

Whether you’re going classic, curious, or alcohol-free, it’s always a good time to raise a glass.

Slow Sundays start here. Settle in by the River Avon in our light-filled conservatory, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy a roast worth lingering over.

Think juicy cuts, golden roasties, fluffy Yorkshire puddings, and plenty of proper gravy – all best enjoyed with good company and a long afternoon ahead. And if you’ve got room, there’s always a pudding worth staying for.

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.
