A good place for anyone who doesn't want any character in a pub. Full of people topping up on cheap beer till their dole money arrives.

This Wetherspoon pub stands on the site of a chemist shop, which was built in the 1840s and housed Cosham's first post office. In the past few years, this pub has been a branch of John Menzies. The last time I went in this pub with my brother it was 5 o'clock and a lad at the bar collapsed with amount of ale he'd had. On another occasion I was served free pear cider by a young lady with a very tight fitting t-shirt with the words 'Pears' on it. You get the picture and what more can you expect from a Wetherspoons in Cosham, a town where it's oldest buildings were demolished in the 1960's and replaced by a car park. It's the 'land of the living dead' and they gravitate to this 'watering' hole for the cheap booze and food. 5 real ales. If I don't paint a lovely picture of this pub, I can't ". Where do they find them?????

A small wetherspoons pub, beer was pretty good, with a choice of 5 real ales. Food was absolutely fine, and the staff were really helpful and very friendly. Handy for Cosham station, which makes a good P&R for Fratton Park.

had occasion to go in there for a meal with a friend, very busy (aren't all wetherspoons?) so had to wait ages at the bar. Took order for two steaks with peppercorn sauce. 5 mins later the waiter came out to say that there was no peppercorn sauce! When meal finally arrived it was served with chips and peas. No tomatoes or mushrooms. When I asked where they were I was told they had run out! Why the hell didn't they just take the steak off the menu. Meal was awful, peas weren't cooked, just defrosted and luke warm. Chips weren't up to much either. The three complimentary onion rings (for having no mushrooms or tomatoes) tasted of cooking oil. Altogether an awful expereince!

A JD Weatherspoons pub, very lively on weekends, spacious, but as usual, you have to make your own entertainment.
