Slow bar service even with multiple bartenders. Fast food, chips portion size small. Atmosphere picked up in the evening

Hi we went here from a break from Victorious and ordered food not to be told had an hour and a half wait. We asked 3 times in order to chase our meal up as we had to be back at Victorious at 8pm before entry was closed.In the end we decided to ask for a refund. The manager agreed to the refund and gave us a free drink each and our meal arrived promptly. Albeit eaten hastily we made it back dead on 8pm.Thankyou to the staff at the Southsea Village as I'm sure under normal circumstances things would have run smoothly. But thank you for making a wrong a right. We will come back at a quieter time as the food was lovely.

Recently went to Southsea Village for a small Christmas get together and the food quality and service has dramatically worsened. One of the worst restaurant experiences in years.1) Extremely long wait for food and drink. Staff were incredibly understaffed and overworked with very long delays with orders.2) Served meat in a vegetarian starter to a vegan guest. The starter was remade, but found that the dough used wasn't cooked either (photo attached).3) Extremely poor hygiene where tables were not clean, toilets were in an abhorrent state and no clear cutlery. In this visit, we had to ask staff multiple times for clear cutlery and didn't receive any until the very end of the meal.4) Very noisy environment with no attempt by staff or security to address.5) Food quality is extremely poor for the price. Previously, Southsea village was consistently good but now it's massively dropped in quality after a menu change.These issues with raised with the venue and no attempt was made by management to address both during and after the meal. If you're planning a meal out, you've have a nicer time at Wetherspoons across the road.

We are here on a short break and went in just for a drink but the menu looked nice so we decided to eat there. Really enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend

What a great find!Two of us were looking for another pizza restaurant in Southsea and spotted this place. The other pizza place looked a bit too up market for us - we just wanted a comfortable place the eat and chat. The Southsea Village was perfect for our needs. A large spacious room, with comfortable chairs. Nicely presented. The pizza kitchen is in the same room, so it's easy to see the pizza being made. The chef was very friendly and promised a good pizza. There was an offer on - 2 pizzas and 2 drinks for £20, which sounded good. We could choose any two pizzas from the menu. The drinks choices were more limited, but sufficient for us. We chose the classic pizza (pepperoni) and the bacon & brie pizza, plus a pint of Inches cider and a pint of Pravda. We each had half of each pizza, as in the photo. The whole meal was excellent value for money. The pizzas were particularly good. I would highly recommend. I am a bit fussy about pizza, so finding this place made me very happy.

Absolutely shameful since the change over in staff. Poor lad working the bar and waiting tables was doing his best while the manager sat with other staff members while watching the size of the queue increase! We were also given a dirty pot of cutlery that had god-knows-whatever liquid in the bottom of it as well. Food was okay, however, it seemed they didn’t even know items they had as soon as it was sent over, the manager explained that a number of our items had to be exchanged. Poor service

Solid 4.5 stars! (just a shame I cant give half stars)It was such a nice restaurant to be in, first time being down in Southsea and stumbled across this place due to Covid and original place we wanted to eat was full in numbers - We had a temp check at the door then was seated in seconds.The service was good, friendly and enjoyable for the kids, full menu was on the cards (August 2020) so was happy to gain the full experience. The dining area had a calm pub like atmosphereFood - was nice and decent sizes even down the the kids meals as see attached. The starters that we had could have been shared between the 4 of us. The Kids Pizza's we didn't expect to be that big but it was perfect size for them both. The Mains I would have liked more chips however with the starter/sides we had I turned out to be okay would have liked more sauce for the size of the meals but hey everyone is different.Toilets were clean. The overall time spent in this restaurant was just a great vibeonly improvement I would say is to have better deserts for someone who is allergic to chocolate its hard to find somewhere which doesnt sell a decent desert without chocolate, so improvement would be to switch it up a little
