Article on the Rockstones first birthday!




Bevois pub celebrates a year of business with style.
“The Rockstone” pub, has had a successful and busy year after its transformation and renovation from “Bevois Castle” to what it is today.
“our first birthday is the 1st of November, and the following weekend has a lot to offer for the celebration.” Says Max, owner and head chef.
“We have five bands playing on the Saturday alone, as well as an employee of the year award, and a German market that will take place every weekend of December for Christmas.”
The Rockstones has been highly rated on Trip Advisor (Currently 3rd best rated of the 321 restaurants in Southampton) and has been given a 5 star food rating.
Staff members say that the biggest issue they had to confront when changing the pub was altering its identity: “Most of the previous customers at “Bevois Castle” seemed rowdy whereas our pub welcomes everyone; even children and dogs.
 “It is actually very common to find Mohawk baring tattoo covered characters having deep convocations with lawyers here for hours on end. We welcome Everyone!”
The Rockstones aim to become a country pub in the city is easily recognisable, with a warm friendly atmosphere, lots of local ingredients and competitions involving drinking 40 shots of rum  or whisky to win a t shirt.
“The contestants have as much time as they need and it’s a good way for customers to familiarise with 75 types of whisky and 60 types of rum on offer.”
With a German market selling produce such as cider and sausages on every weekend of December there is no excuse not to visit the “Rockstone” and fall in love with the menu, the people, and the spirit it possesses.
