Very friendly & knowledgeable Landlord, who treated a group of Fulham fans visiting the pub for the first time very well.
Beer was very good & a large range of cider & perry. Sunday lunch was a result.
Juke box & pool table topped it off, shame we had to leave. Will be back.

Great pub hidden away down a small street off the seafront. Has great ale selection and real cider really worth a visit.
|
A real find, this pub has two main rooms. One is kept fairly traditional - nice and quiet, whereas the other has a jukebox and pool table available. One of the best features about this place is the vast range of cider. 50 varieties are on sale with a knowledgeable landlord on hand to talk you through them all. A must for all cider lovers.

One of the nicest pubs in Southsea, owners are so friendly you always feel really welcome. Great selection of ciders too! Would definitely recommend.
|
Now stocking 12 REAL ciders, a couple of perrys and about 30 different bottled ciders. great choice
|
A friendly family run business, who take pride in the bar and the restuarant. I would highly recommend this to local's and visitors. They don't mind children or pets, which has to be an added bonus.

The beer here is always on top form.

Great Boozer, two bar basic public nice comfortable lounge and separate restaurant beer always tip top, just had hogs back englands glory. life doesn't get a lot better than this

This is a functional drinking hole with minimal frills but great beer. If you are seeking pretension then go elsewhere.
Tip Top!!

I stopped in this pub on about 3 occasions while attending the Festival of the Sea in Portsmouth. I have to say this has to be one of the nicest and friendliest pubs I have been in.
The average age of people in this pub be about 50 and a lot of them are local people. Everyone seemed friendly and staff are brilliant.
The pub offers two seperate bars and a restaurant. We went in the same bar each time and it was small but very cosy.
They offer about 3/4 real ales, Adnams Broadside, Youngs and Youngs Special. I think there is another but can't remember. Prices are your average and there are plenty of other drinks available too.
The staff take a lot of pride in their beer and treat you well. It was nice when I went up to the bvar and the bloke new exactly what my order was with out me uttering a word!
Once we had our drinks the bar man I think he was the manager came over and had a good chat with us all about who we were and where we are from etc, it was great!
We used the restuarant once and it was wonderful. Staff were attentive and the food selection is good. There are always specials on too. Unfortunately their wine supplier went out of business so we could not get the wine we wanted but that won't change my opinion of the pub.
The manager also came out to the restaurant to give us our wine and have a chat, very friendly. I advise booking a table if you want to get in the restuarant. Prices for food are very rasonable for what you get too.
One of my likes about a nice old pub like this is that they ahve ornaments and memorabilia of old things around the pub. They also allow dogs into the bar, almost stepped on a boxer dog getting to the toilet!
I cannot recommend this pub enough, a definate visit is required if you are in this area.

Old fashioned lounge no music no machines, lively public bar with juke box, pool table quiz and games machines.
