Review of Bat & Ball
27 Apr 08, 18:33
Old But Good 
Its the cradle of the game of cricket. More importantly, its a good pub, with good ales. The service is good and they offer some fine scoff to. Its in a great setting in the middle of no where, on a summers day its a little bit of Hampshire paradise.

Review of Fir Tree

Go for 112 
...its the Chili Shredded Chicken and has to be the best thing on the menu. I use this Chinese from time to time and the guys in there are good value. They make the food fresh(ish) and its all hot and good to go within 15-20 mins.

Review of Italian Furniture Direct
27 Apr 08, 18:28
Absolute Crap 
Whatever you do, never buy anything from these cowboys. I had a whole drama with Sofa's that I bought there. Customer Service is probably the worst ever know, the products are shoddy (1 sofa lasted a week before it splt). Its all a giant con with the prices too. If the world was flooded with p**s and this was the last furniture shop in the world, I wouldn't spend another bean there. Shocking.

A touch of Class 
Ideal on a Saturday morning after a wicked hangover. Good fresh food, speedy service and its got a nice continental feel - price is good too.

Review of Lemon Sole
27 Apr 08, 18:19
Superb but Pricey 
If you like a top selection of fresh fish, this place is awesome. You actually pick the piece of fish you want, then they whip it off and prepare it. Good wine, good service, but a tad steep - 4 people will eat for about £30 a head. Good value though.

Review of The Flagship

Oh My Cod! 
Probably the best chippy in Portsmouth. I've been a few times over the past 6 months and the fish is always piping hot and fresh. Good scran.

Review of Square & Compass

Fine English Pub 
A real little gem with glorious views across the Jurassic Coast, loads of great local ales and ciders on tap and a basic menu with the best pasties outside of Cornwall. Watch out for some highly amusing spontaneous live music on Sundays throughout the Summer - never a dull moment!

Review of The Garrick Arms

Solid Boozer 
A good pub, nice atmos - and beer doesn't seem to steep (Leicester Squ, there are no cheap pubs). Do a good selection of bottle beer. Word of warning though, watch out for radio type people spouting off a load of muck - pretending to be somebody's.

Review of Opera House
22 Apr 08, 18:52
Cool and Classy 
I hadn't been to this place since it was the Academy, many moons ago. Its refitted and looks superb. if you want a class night out, spacious, relaxing and not surrounded by sweaty mites gnawing at the plaster, you'll love this place. Not cheap mind.

Review of Farm & Cottage Holidays
22 Apr 08, 18:45
First Class 
I booked a family holiday through these guys (a farm cottage in Portreath). It was brilliant, everything we were looking for. The actual cottage was superb, but booking on line and paying was effortless. I can't fault it.
