The A Bar - (Near Hampshire, london)

Keisha Roberts Been here quite a few times, but this visit was even better as we brought some friends along and had such a great time. We were served by the new manager, Sandy, who was an absolute delight. His customer service was amazing, really attentive and always seemed to know exactly when we were ready for the next round of drinks. Definitely the best experience we’ve had here so far, and we’ll absolutely be back!

Ilona Thompson We had an excellent meal here which was a lovely surprise as the pub wasn’t our first choice. Everything was good, hot and filling. We were catching the ferry to Bilbao and had picked another restaurant but it was shut and we found the Dolphin instead. I must say I’m glad we did! Dave the manager was very friendly and helpful, telling us about a quicker route to the ferry terminal. Thanks Dave and next time we’re in Portsmouth we’ll be sure to call in.

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

Summit to Sea I’m a bit “old fashioned” and being at sea nearly 35 years I do like a good maritime pub. I’ve been in Portsmouth 3 months and I have enjoyed the service and food here at the Ship A! The staff work hard and at times are ran ragged. This is a proud pub with its roots in maritime heritage and the Union flag. Love this place so much I bought the T-shirt.

Tristan Hermosa I recently had a wonderful dining experience at Zizzi, and it’s definitely a place I would happily return to. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, relaxed, and welcoming — perfect for both casual meals and special catch-ups with friends or family. The restaurant itself was clean, stylish, and had a lively but comfortable ambiance that made the whole visit enjoyable. One of the highlights of our experience was the excellent customer service. Christine and Julia, who served us during our visit, were both incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. They made us feel genuinely welcome, checked in regularly without being intrusive, and ensured that everything we needed was taken care of promptly. Their positive attitude and friendly approach truly added a personal touch to our dining experience. The food was equally impressive — beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavour. The menu offered a good variety of options, and everything we ordered arrived on time and tasted delicious. It was clear that care had been taken in both preparation and presentation. Overall, Zizzi delivered not only great food but also outstanding service, thanks especially to Christine and Julia. Their hospitality made our visit memorable and enjoyable from start to finish. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience with excellent customer care.

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.
