Excellent little local pub. Nice staff. Highly recommended.
Great little pub with traditional glazed tile tile frontage which was very common on pubs in Portsmouth due to the architect A. E. Cogwell. We popped in for a drink on a Sunday afternoon. Great atmosphere and the bonus of some live music. It's nice to see a traditional pub like this thriving. Highly recommended.
A great locals pub, very friendly.
This is a round the corner pub (I haven't checked if it is really a pub or free house). I only spent an hour there and had a half pint of cider, and chatted bierfly with a few local people; I think they had curiosity of Asian people in this small pub that is escaped in the roads inside the living zone.
I like the bar for a few things: intimacy (I imagine this is a social club for locals) . There is no loud music, though some background music is aired (I would prefer to a little bit more classic music; not necessarily classical music). The interior design. It's not that a lower ceiling wooden structure nor a grand design. It's tidy, clean, but shows the historical taste. Of course, I love the stint glass window. You can't see through to outside. Just like those found in churches.
There is a corner that should be reserved for live music. It's a very small spot just for one or two people.
Any downside? The choices of beer are limited, and most are known brands. Since there is no window so in hot days, I doubt they should keep the door open. By the way, they have a bench outside. Yes, it's a bench, not a table. Will I go there again? Definitely. Last weekend I just wanted to have a beer there, it was full house.
I think this is why it's called a public house (if I'm correct, public may also denotes that they can sell any beer without restriction to those contracted or brewed)
Excellent local pub, 4☆ as wine not so good..... friendly
Nice friendly pub with good local ale
This wonderful place was a regular haunt for me forty odd years ago. I decided to revisit on the occasion of my brother's birthday. All four bros together in a pub that I had history in. I loved the "vibe" of the place. I will definitely be back sooner rather than later. The lady behind the bar was lovely, thanks for the memories Auckland Arms 👌🏻👍🏻
Great little pub with lively music on.
Fantastic appearance on the outside.
