I've been to this place 6 times and only been let in once. The main reason seems to be bcos i am not a chav. Other times they've just ignored us.
I wasnt dressed correctly once whereas the group of idiots in ben sherman, shiny shoes and gold earings were let straight in.

I have never met such horrible and unpleasant door staff, they are rude and seem to pick on people for no reason.

I witnessed completely unprovoked, highly aggressive behaviour from them towards some people.
I would recommend going somewhere else in Winchester to be treated like a proper customer. Unfortunately the place is great otherwise, a good atmosphere with fun cheesy music.

The Porthouse is great, on a Thursday night you have to be there by 10pm or it is 1 in 1 out. The staff are friendly and aren't threatening at all. The drinks are cheap and the music is great. What more could u ask for?

exactly where has the £250,000 been spent??? This place is so over priced, the door staff are obnoxious and the toilets are appalling... avoid

ahhh, Seasons Red Electric, The Porthouse, I remember my salad days... Actually i don't and thats because I was always drunker than a scotsman whos just won a fiver on the lottery and this is the best, and only way to enjoy this pub/club disguised as a blot on the landscape of decency. £250,000 spent on it apparently. Could have changed the carpets at least. Bulldoze it now and give us a break from even having to think about going here after 6 pints. 'oh go on, it'll be great' we say, NO IT BLOODY WELL WONT AND IT COSTS A FIVER. Go home before its too late
