This is a club, which means that the bar may be only open to members.

Non-members welcome at any time.

Re-branded from South Wonston Social Club to The Drovers on reopening after a Covid lockdown 19/05/2021.

A social club turned pub serving the modern village of South Wonston. Interior décor is very much along modern club lines. A large single room with separately styled areas including a pool room and a bar on the far left as you enter. Three handpumps on the bar usually have a couple of local beers. A variety of seating including comfortable sofas. Two TV screens show important Rugby and other sports events, but free-to-air services only, no dedicated sports channels. The club has a full licence, and is open to all; members of the club are entitled to discounts.

Although no food is served, the social club has the kebab van outside Fridays & Saturdays 5pm to 9.30pm, serving breakfast baps, burgers and, of course, kebabs.

Historic Interest

Started off as a Royal British Legion club in a Nissan hut in 1949. Clubhouse replaced with current building in the 1960s. Early 1970s saw RBL leave and then it became South Wonston Social Club. Acquired full premises licence early 2020s though still owned and managed as a club, though fully open to the public and renamed The Drovers.
