JUST HANGING OUT
Winchester is the perfect city in which to loaf, lounge and generally hang out. In the Spring and Summer, or as soon as the sun makes an appearance, Winchester students congregate to have their lunch on the Cathedral green, slap bang in the centre of the city. For your picnic lunch, there is an abundance of coffee stops (see the Cafés entry in this guide), bubble tea shops, meal deals and takeaway venues. These range from good old-fashioned bakeries (trust us, there’s plenty of choice), Sushi or Bao from the Bento Factory and fish and chips from Shoal under the Guildhall.
For a giant cookie and a coffee, the appropriately-named Flat Whites coffee pod is conveniently parked up in Market Street, right by the Cathedral green is a favourite amongst the locals.
Other hanging out haunts include Oram’s Arbour near the uni, by the waterside in River Park, at the foot of town in Abbey Gardens and for those prepared for the lung-busting ascent, the top of St Catherine’s Hill.
