Restaurants

Whether you want fine dining or some slap-up grub, Portsmouth has plenty to offer

Restaurants in Portsmouth

There is a variety of restaurants in Portsmouth to suit all tastes and budgets. Whether you're after some hearty pub grub, a fine dining experience or something from far flung nations of the world, you certainly won't have to look far.

Being an island city, Portsmouth does a good trade in seafood, with fish dishes rarely far from the menus of pubs and restaurants alike. If you choose to grab a bite to eat overlooking the water in Old Portsmouth, you may even spot the boats that brought in your fresh catch.

It's not just fish that is often locally sourced. Many restaurants in Portsmouth serve meat from Hampshire and the immediate surrounds. Whether it's venison from the New Forest, some South Downs pork or poultry from the Isle of Wight, you'll frequently see provenance popping up on Portsmouth menus. Additionally, the names of local butchers are menu mainstays, with restaurants committing to source their produce locally and support smaller enterprises.

The area of Old Portsmouth was once referred to as the Spice Island, going by the ships that would dock there from Asia, to unload their exotic wares. It should be no surprise, then, that Portsmouth has a wealth of restaurants serving cuisine from the east. Albert Road is especially known for being a curry-lover's paradise, with a number of restaurants along the busy street serving award-winning dishes.

It's not all curry or fish and chips, though. Visitors seeking a more refined dining experience will certainly be well catered for in Portsmouth. There are a number of small French bistros where you can while away candlelit hours over good steak and even better wine. Or, failing that, how about the city's numerous fusion restaurants, where you can try some unique amalgamations of world foods that are unlikely to be found anywhere else.

If you'd prefer to visit some of the big-name places, there are plenty of restaurants in Gunwharf Quays that fit the bill. With the likes of Cafe Rouge, Las Iguanas, Wagamama and more all within the outlet centre, you'll be spoilt for choice.

Similarly, there's a host of restaurants in Port Solent for the hungry visitor. In addition to Harvester and Prezzo you have more independent places including Friendly Phil's and The Watermark.
