Story

The Wellington
Welcome to the Wellington,
a traditional Old Portsmouth kitchen lounge bar.

Having learnt the trade in our family business,
the renowned Murrays Restaurant in Southsea, and provided catering at many of the landmark attractions in Portsmouth,
such as HMS Warrior, HMS Victory, the Square Tower, Southsea Castle and the Royal Marines Museum, I wanted to bring over 30 years of experience to my own pub and restaurant.

We are constantly working on new ideas to evolve the menu to give our customers more choice and variety. We aim to change our menu to reflect seasonal variations and hopefully maintain your interest. If there is a dish you would like that is not on the menu, please advise and we will do all we can to accommodate.

We are passionate about food and supporting local businesses to source our ingredients. All our dishes are freshly prepared using
seasonal produce to bring you good quality home cooked food.

I hope you enjoy your visit, please tell your friends and come back and see us again.
Kate

A one* is an extremely excessive high score, given because beer and staff were pleasant enough. On a warm and sunny Sunday I was surprised that the pub was so quiet. I last used The Wellington some 30-40 years ago, when they offered a very good roast. Unfortunately, this no longer the case! We both chose the beef option and discovered that every element of the meal was incorrect and very poorly prepared. As an example, the beef was so cold it must have served directly from a fridge! I prefer a rare cut and my partner well done. In both cases we were unhappy as only 5% of the joint had change to brown. I can criticise every other aspect of the meal. My partner had already paid on ordering which included a 10% service charge. Cleanliness is also a major issue. Every service is tacky to the touch. My partner had used the toilet. However, her recommendation was to wait until we returned home, despite being in my my 70’s and needing the loo.
Popped in for a drink with my folks. Impressive interior, with a beer garden 4 or 5 tables? and a couple of ta les out the front. Small but good selection of drinks on tap. Staff friendly. Music choice was cool 60s and 70s on the Saturday afternoon we went. I'd definitely go back.Rooms: 5/5
Went for late lunch with family 8 July 24. Couldn't believe the amount of food. The chef and staff catered for vegan and veggie and double checked. Meal was delicious, service fantastic and environment relaxed. Would go again. Wish I had a photoService: 5/5
The location is superb! It's close to beaches and attractions. It's 15/20 minutes easy walking from the coach station. There's a beach just in the left corner, grocery shops, public transport, pubs, and restaurants on the road. The room was comfortable and clean. There's a cattle and plenty of cumplimentary coffee and tea. The staff was helpful and polite.
Booked back in January for b&b,got no breakfast on both mornings of our stay,rooms are filthy,nothing like pictures on website,thick cobwebs hanging down,need proper blackout blinds as current ones are no good. Suggest the owner spends a night in each room,as will they will realise the beds are broken,no where to put toiletries,book or personal items.staff were apologetic,couldn't offer any refund but were really helpful,cos their hands were tied.still advertising outside that they do breakfast on Saturday/Sunday mornings from 9am-11am even though staff don't get there till 11,chef gets there at 12noon. Safety: Felt safe& comfortable Walkability: Historical area. Food & drinks: Plenty of different restaurants in area. Noteworthy details: Details on places to go.
Waited an hour for the worst roast dinner at a pub I've ever had. Left half of it. Meat was disgusting. Cauliflower cheese was just Cauliflower with cheese grated on top. Wouldn't give the food to a dog. Shame really for a decent, historic building and pub that is clearly so poorly ran.
APPALLING. We arrived to what we all agreed was a dirty outdated pub with sticky tables. We waited 1 hour 30 minutes for 4 roast dinners to come out, the food was awful. Reheated potatoes, frozen Yorkshire’s and undercooked veg. No one came to our table across this time to apologise for the wait or ask if we wanted more drinks during this unacceptable wait for food. The toilets were disgusting too. Across this time 3 tables walked out due to the wait for food. To top this off we were overcharged on every single meal against the price advertised on the menu. We would never go back. Avoid like the plague, just awful in every sense
What a lovely friendly venue. We were doing a Portsmouth treasure hunt which lead us here, and I'm very pleased it did. The food was outstanding. Probably one of the best lamb shanks I've ever had. Food & drinks: Lamb shank was delicious and such a great portion!
Went with family and dogs today for Sunday roast. On arrival nothing was said about problem in kitchen and there would be at least an hour wait for food. Girl brought drinks over spilling some on way as she did with other drinks she was taking to people .3 girls working in bar area but not doing a lot. Tables left dirty and uncleared not nice to look at while you were waiting for food. Everyone complaining asking how much longer for food. Seemed to be bringing out about 6 meals in an hour. Awful. another couple had wrong food brought out after waiting ages. They were disgusted and walked out. After 1 and half hours some of our food came out. Nothing like the advertised photo. Yorkshire pudding cold and uncooked in bottom and all looked unappetising. Decided we were not paying nearly £20 for that and decided to leave. Another girl who turned up was working harder than all 3 girls put together and was apologising and trying to put things right. The other 3 need training on how to run a bar and restaurant. Terrible experience ruined our day and we then had to travel to denmead for meal as everywhere else was booked by that time !! Disgusting I'm fuming extremely agitated and in a vile mood will never go again !!
Where do I even start. We had a table booked at 13:30 today. We had 50 minute wait until our food came. The food was awful. We both had the trio of roast. The meat was all over done. Chicken was dry. The beef was more chewy than beef jerks. The veg was undercooked. The Yorkshire and roast potatoes were chewy. Not once did anyone check how the meal was. We had to ask twice at the bar for the bill and then had to go up and pay. Service was non existent. The music was incredibly loud for a small dining area. First and last time coming here. What a waste of £62 for a dinner that was beyond disappointing
