Ship Anson - (Near Hampshire, london)

Paul Dunstan Service was great, food excellent and even accommodated some changes to the menu. Probably one of the best cafes in Portsmouth for home cooked food at affordable prices.

Marnie Campbell Had a lovely breakfast. The food was tasty and service fast and friendly. Coffee was really good. A great little spot!

Kate Hare The food looks fresh but its minimal for price you pay. Could be displayed better. The staff look annoyed about everything. Drinks machine wasnt wprking and noone shared amd when asked they were almost annoyed we asked. It was not busy. The place is clean

Andy Wong Popped by for a quick lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. Lovely restaurant, and the food is top notch for the price. I had the mushroom risotto and it was hearty and flavoursome, pairing well with the South African Chardonnay on their menu. The complimentary bread board was a pleasant surprise as well. Total bill came up to £25.50. If you visit the Historic Dockyard museums, Id seriously recommend checking this place out!

Alexander Fergusson-Cooper If I could give this place one star I would... They have ruined pizza for me, it was by far the best Ive had, no other will compare. My partner and I shared the nduja/scotch bonnet and the chicken/paneer. Both were truly superb. The dough had a terrific flavour, but the toppings on each were perfectly balanced and flavoursome. We started with the cauliflower hummus - something we await to recreate! The service was outstanding, knowledgeable and friendly, without being over the top, again, a perfect balance. Wine list fantastic and comprehensive (the reason we came here - (fathers a wine merchant!) maître d was knowledgeable and showed us the bottle of wine we were curious about. Atmosphere was warm, welcoming, relaxed, and the use of acoustic tiles on the ceiling work as both an interesting feature and more importantly to reduce the sound in the bar/restaurant. I am hugely disappointed we are only in Portsmouth for an evening - had we live in the vicinity, we would surely adopt The A Bar as a regular venue. A venue for everyone, we were made to feel like long standing customers - warm and welcoming. If ever in Portsmouth again, we will rush back!

Natalie White We hired an upstairs section for my daughters 21st birthday drinks. The area was really beautiful, with amazing views from 2 sides of the room. The hire was free, we had approx 25 guests, plenty of seating. Food ordered from the varied menu was delicious and arrived quickly. Staff were very friendly. Absolutely perfect venue. Would highly recommend.
