The best BCP pubs for a pint in the sunshine according to readers
The arrival of warmer weather in the summer is an ideal time to enjoy a pint in a sunny beer garden in the BCP area. With there being quite a few options to pick from in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, you want to pick something that has something a bit special about it. Therefore, we thought it might be best to ask Daily Echo readers for their recommendations. We put out a Facebook post asking the question, and here are the responses we received. More than 120 comments were left on the Facebook post, and a few establishments received multiple recommendations. One of those was The Bell over in Pokesdown, with one of those recommending it saying: "The Bell Pokesdown best boozer bar none". The pub's website describes it as a "thriving" community space, which offers "live music and sport, great drinks and an unbeatable atmosphere". Pubgoers seem to agree with that sentiment, as it has earned a 4.6/5 score on Tripadvisor from 40 reviews. The Bell had a few recommendations from readers (Image: The Bell/Tripadvisor) With a decent-sized beer garden, it's a good spot if you want to enjoy a pint in the sun. The Cliff pub and restaurant over in Canford Cliffs had a couple of comments in support of it. The large outdoor space there, no doubt, plays into that, and it has earned a 4.2/5 score on Tripadvisor from 2,034 reviews. The Cliff had a couple of recommendations from readers (Image: The Cliff/Tripadvisor) A few Christchurch pubs were recommended by some readers, including The Thomas Tripp. One person wrote: "Thomas Tripp Christchurch. Looking forward to the first Bank holiday weekend, sunshine, live music and Plum Porter." Meanwhile, The George was favoured by one reader who shared: "The George Christchurch, burger and a pint for a tenner." Finally, The Railway was highlighted in the town for its "great garden" which made it a "good sun trap".

They shared: "The Commodore at Southbourne or the Neptune bar Boscombe beach." Even with this being quite far away from BCP, the Square & Compass in Worth Matravers also got a fair few mentions.
