Clarence Pier Brewers Fayre - Southsea

Really tasty food not overpriced. Steak was dry so was told i could have a refund but the gammon was so nice i had another piece of that instead. Staff were brilliant. Lovely atmosphere in the evening. Sea views. Has a small outside area.

Staff friendly and helpful New lad on tills first day, he done very well considering the till broke on him. Food very good, but they still persist with my chief gripe and leave skins on the cips.

Nice atmosphère. Good ambiance. There are vegan options but if u order a vegan burger there is no vegan mayo. Slow service. The rice and curry are good. But they forgot to give my dessert and we had to get them packed as we were getting late.. Slightly expensive.

Called in here on the off chance there would be a table as we were in the area. The girl at the door was smiley and helpful and managed to find a high table for two. Good start. I went to the bar to order food and drink, where a couple of young lads were chatting behind the bar. That 's fine apart from the fact they both just looked blankly at me, and I had to ask for service! One of the lads came over, and I ordered two simple meals and two soft drinks. He forgot what the drinks were, so I repeated, then he forgot what the last drink was! Is it really that hard these days?! I left the bar with my coke and oj and lemonade, sat at the table, and waited for the food to arrive. Came fairly quickly in fairness and was warm. Shame it wasn 't hot, but acceptable. The girl bringing the food over walked past us twice, looking for our table. When she found us, she just put the two meals down, said here, and turned to walk away. As my partner and I were switching the meals over to have the right one as she didn 't ask, the server turned back to us and said, Oh yeah, do you want sauce? We asked for ketchup and mayo. Off she went, she came back a minute or two later with two plastic pots that had cheap ketchup and some odd tasting mayo. Not only is it expensive in the pub, but you get knock-off sauce, not to mention the amount of plastic waste this is!! Thought everyone was conscious of waste these days?! Not here! Anyway, the simple burgers we ordered were quite nice and homemade. I would say. Shame they were not hot. The fries with skin on were quite good, but only warm, and there was a small pile of coleslaw. It was a small amount of fries and coleslaw which is rubbish for the cost. Definitely better off going yo micks monster burger on the hill and getting fresh hot value for money food. I wouldn 't bother going back, though a few staff were quite jolly. The environment is OK in there, but I guess it depends on who else is there. We were unfortunate enough to have a couple of kids jumping around by our table being quite noisy and hitting a balloon around near us. My other half has a weird phobia of balloons! Anyway, the staff didn 't seem to care about them being a nuisance around other diners and in the walkways! To sum up , average food, poor service, pricey for what you get and not the best atmosphere.

This pub has just reopened and we were greeted by friendly and cheerful staff ,shown to our table and told how to order. The food was very tasty and if you go Monday to Friday 12noon to 6pm they have 2 meals for £9.99 a real bargain when eating out. I would recommend booking as they were so grateful we had booked on the day due to be being extra busy.
