  “Lovely little welcoming bar in Springbourne. Just went in once during our stay in Bournemouth. It seems to be a ‘locals’ place, sometimes that means you can feel awkward as an outsider …. But it was a very friendly place with a great landlord.… Great selection of beers and whiskies… we’re sorry we only discovered it on our last night. Cheers”

  “Absolutely tip top little independent ale/cider bar. Love this place. They really care about their ales and provide a wide variety of cask and keg ale and cider.”

  “Fantastic little hidden pub with perhaps the best craft beer selection in all of Bournemouth. Beer range with 13 beers on tap four of which are cask - great mix of styles as well. Proper old pub with a fantastic atmosphere amd absolutely lovely bar staff and a great crowd.”

  “Loved this place.. Fitted a couple of visits in over a long weekend and if I'd returned from a run in time on the Sunday it would have been 3. 4 v well kept beers on hand pull that change regularly and many more keg options. Full of friendly people and a nice hubbub.”

  “The Firkin Shed is a small micro pub that has a great choice of draught/ bottle beers, ciders,mead,spirits. It doesn't do food as it is too small. It just has snacks. It has three areas inside and two outside. The toilets have toilet paper/air freshener/ electric hand dryers in. It is a cosy place with a good atmosphere. I would definitely go again for a couple of pints with friends.”

  “Atmospheric little boozer that you can't help but not enjoy. Came here to watch The Wilswood Buoys. Cozy set up and really felt part of the music. The atmosphere was great! Freindly bar staff and locals & a great choice of local real ales. Didn't eat here so can't comment on the food but if it's anything like the drink and service, you won't go wrong.”

  “A brilliant, cosy micro-pub situated in Springbourne. Cask ales, wines and whiskeys from all over the UK are served here, and at a reasonable price too. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting; perfect for enjoying an ale and catching up with friends. I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Staff are friendly and helpful and will recommend drinks based on your tastes.”

  “Quirky and spooky...💀👻 the two words that i think would best describe this pub. I can tell with certainty that it's very different to the pubs that you been to before. They don't serve the mainstream🍺 but the ales that they do are just awesome🤘🏻 the place is littered with random objects and artifacts that add to its character. They dont serve food, but should you get peckish, there are plenty of takeaways nearby. As it's quite a small place, better air conditioning would be great.”

  “Great little jewel in Springbourne. The Frikin Shed is a tiny spot, perfect to have a drink with friends and maybe playing some games. The staff is super friendly, and they take care of your order swiftly. The beer & cider selection is great, from many local & small breweries. The place is small, but very cozy. Loving spending some evenings with my friend there. :)”
