Coffee Cup Eastney in Portsmouth

Nice place to go, a little expensive but then where isn't these days ? Worthy of a visit for sure.

Enjoyed mid morning refreshment, in the sunshine with a beautiful view of Eastney beach, the Solent & the Isle of Wight.

Ideal for a quick snack and a coffee and on a sunny day it’s good to sit outside and enjoy the sun overlooking the beach and the Solent. Good snack menu with a variety of coffee and hot and cold drinks.

Always excellent coffee, great location and staff are always great 👍

Oasis apon the beach along thee Oceanside..

A very nice coffee shop on the beach. Outside seating exists, as does play facilities for young children. There is a counter where passers-by can get service. It's a very useful and popular place for a break and has free WiFi.

Perfect beach front view while enjoying a brew

Lovely setting on Southsea sea front. Can get very busy, depending what time of day you are there. We managed to get a seat at 3.30pm. Counter service. Pre packed sandwiches. Cakes are nice and fresh.

The very best service in hospitality. Lovely cup of tea and incredible customer service. All members of staff where friendly and helpful. Best location in pompey.

Very nice place, very good service, very good coffee, food wasn’t perfect

Very slow service from ordering, otherwise fine

The passion fruit smoothie was delicious and the staff were very kind and helpful!

This place is located on the Sea Front and it is great for a stop over to have an aromatic cup of coffee and something sweet on the go. It can get busy during the warmer days. They have an option to get stuff from a counter and also to sit in and enjoy the view. Average prices, good varieties of pastries

A real shame…paid for parking which is not cheap so couldn’t go elsewhere…stead were very friendly but unfortunately food was really expensive for what it was. Soggy toasties, with no real filling, served with crisps and nothing else and a dry sorry looking sausage roll 😕

Stopped off on a windy day just grabbed a takeaway coffee and deluxe Lemon donuts 🍩 which was fresh & delicious 😋 & sat on the beach.

Coffee is so burnt! Very bitter coffee huge disappointment, this is the second time here now thinking the first coffee was a one off, unfortunately not. consistent burnt coffee 🙄

Visited today as a group of six, we chose to sit outside to eat. The jacket potatoes were huge with a large amount of filling,worth every penny & just what we needed after a long walk! The guy that served us was extremely polite & patient even though it was busy & we weren't sure what we wanted straight away,Customer service was excellent. Drinks were hot & freshly made so we were all happy. Will definitely return in the future. Thank you for a lovely lunch.

A great cute chilling place by the beach, the coffee is great and the pastry is nice, (but you have to be there early to enjoy it). The staff is very friendly and they all have the most important thing about any staff, which is they all smile😊.

Only had coffee, best I've had in the Southsea area. The cakes looked great pity I'd just had breakfast.

Nice place. Disgusting coffee...

EXTREMELY RUDE STAFF MEMBER on the phone called BEN, hung up on me multiple times and I was just trying to ask questions about the menu. Won’t bother going

A tad expensive...11 quid for 2 normal coffees? 🤔

Terrible coffee would bot recommend had to throw it out.

Well, I might be old fashioned. But, to queue, to pay, to get a device which buzz when my coffee is ready, then to get the device back to the tills and get my coffee... Felt like my own waiter... Could bring my coffee from home and have it on the beach... What's the difference? Why don't they do this in Spain? In Portugal? In Germany? In Austria? Is it too much to be served? No, not here next time. Thank you.

A wonderful place with great music and amazing people—thank you for serving a delicious pulled pork sandwich and excellent coffee!

Absolutely superb coffee shop with direct access and views to the beach. Always met with a friendly smile, prompt and efficient service, very clean tidy and welcoming. Excellent value. When ever I am in Portsmouth this is my “go to” coffee shop. Indoor and outdoor seating makes it a venue for all weathers.

The guy bringing out prepared sandwiches to the service area wearing a beard that was incredibly long without hair net and completely put me off the food. Goes for front of house staff serving food, long hair no hair net or caps. £4 a flat white expected better standards.

Nice views and the food and drinks were great. Service wasn't as good as I was given the wrong drink and was ignored by staff when I went to the counter to complain.

Went to get a takeaway hot chocolate, was waiting over 40 mins went back to question why it was taking so long and was greeted with a rude manner by the staff asking had my buzzer gone off which it hadn’t and I saw 2 hot chocolates waiting on the counter I asked are these mine she said has your buzzer gone off I said no she said well it isn’t yours then, I said I have been waiting 40 mins she said can I see your receipt so I showed her she said oh these are yours I put the wrong numbers, no apology nothing. Absolutely ridiculous. And I wasn’t the only person whom was annoyed there was also someone else complaining about how long they had been waiting. I Won’t be returning.

Really lovely location and good service. They have a buzzer thing that makes thing very easy. The hot chocolate was very mid. Tasted like powder but priced like a proper hot chocolate. Would not recommend.

Super venue. Clean and tidy, food decor. Staff were friendly. Chai latte was ok, but certainly I have had better. I was disappointed to be honest.

Nice venue for a Coffee by the seaside.

The atmosphere is truly amazing. The coffee is okay the milk is always burnt for some reason. If that would be fixed then it would be 5 stars from me!

We visit coffee cup eastney weekly, came today to find rather large price increase. Then realised why we were given crisps with our panini. Nice touch but very sad to say will be going else where. Have watched the coffee cup grow over the years. But can get a panini for less than £7.19 elsewhere, maybe no sea view but hey ho.

We have always enjoyed your cafe, one of the best spots along the seafront to get a drink. Especially in the summer. However, its now not possible to get a gluten free lunch. When I questioned this, I was told there was too much waste involved, and as a small business this could not be sustained. Please try and find a local business that can help you out with this problem . Look forward to your response.

I used the takeaway side because inside was full. Good service. Pleasant and welcoming barrister. Food I ordered was hot and very nice. Couldn't ask for more.

Service was very slow, took over 15 minutes to get to the front of the queue and when I placed my order I was given a pager and had a further 10 minute wait. When I collected my drinks they were cool not hot. Would I recommend them, NO! I would recommend you keep on walking, this was a Sunday afternoon in February, what would they be like on a warm sunny day in May.

Great place for coffee whilst walking the dog. Dogs not allowed inside but plenty of outdoor seating available. Recommended

Love sitting here and watching hing the world go by

Regularly visit here for a coffee or two. Location is lovely and the staff are all super friendly! Prices are about what you'd expect, but the coffee is good.

Amazing place by the sea to have a little break after a walk , service was amazing and the staff will serve you with a smile.

Lovely little place to get food and hot drinks. Has a lovely view of the sea. The coffee is really good.

Lovely and friendly staff. Great ambience and perfect for a nice study cafe. Lovely views. Spacious. Clean toilets. Road side paid parking. Children play area. Only issue is not so good for vegans. No desserts or sweets for vegans mainly. Could improve food options. The coffee is really good though.

I found this cafe to be overpriced and the food to be sparse. I had a pulled pork and cheese pannini which was filled as sparingly as possible. It cost over £5! My piece of cake, bakewell slice, was stale and dry. It's a shame because it's a cosy building and the staff seem friendly enough, shame about the food. I did notice that a lot of customers just had a drink, maybe that tells me something!

Quick service,, beautiful sea view great to have a cup of coffee

Great staff Although busy Great service

I love this place, everything is perfect in there.

Visited takeaway counter on Boxing Day. Disorganised beyond belief resulting in overly long queue - we waited 20 minutes but would have been longer if two groups ahead of us hadn't given up hope of being served. To make matters worse the Americano and Flat Whites we ordered tasted awful - coffee used tasted completely stale. Will know in future not to waste valuable doggy swimming time!

It's OK but the person at the window couldn't have closed it any quicker, once after taking the order and then again after handing us our expensive coffee...I had to knock it to ask for my piece of expensive cake I had already paid for. It's just not like it used to be. It used to have a more friendly atmosphere, now it just feels 'commercial' like every other coffee place.

I quote “ you couldn’t write it “ well I’m going too. !!! This place is a complete disaster. We went in to get 4 hot drinks while enjoying a Boxing Day walk along the sea front and were alone as there was no queue and was soon told there would be at least a half hour wait as they were extremely busy yet there were loads of seats available and 3 staff doing absolutely nothing- disgraceful customer service and if I owned this business I would be fuming. I will never use this place again and discourage anyone else going there.

OK if you like cheap and microwaved

I was treated what I feel was disgustingly just cause I brought my dog in to the cafe, I didnt see the sign that said no dogs and the man came up to me and said, We don’t allow dogs into the restaurant if you pay for your order and wait outside I will bring it to the window … I explained I’m not waiting in the cold for long so I hope he would be quick So I picked up my little Dachsund and held her and waited inside the door,He then came over and again told me to go outside and he will bring the drinks … It was extremely windy and raining and He made me feel like a peice of dirt …so we stood outside for a few mins and waited … Honestly he needs some training in how to treat woman, I am old enough to be his grandmother.

Probably the best mocha, with extra shot, I have ever had. Sustained me halfway to Winchester.

Great place to stop off before work for a hot drink and a croissant, warm and lovely views, some other tempting baked options available including lunch options if you get there later.

Unfortunately, the taste of the coffee was so bad I had to throw away

The food and drink here has become extortionately priced and the coffees are not even good anymore (weak watered down to save / make more money?). Why can’t this place build some more toilets (they have one and it’s usually out of order). And why not install a live web cam of the sea state and do the local swimming community a favour? Unfortunately they have the monopoly and a captive audience here as the only place on the front and they are ripping people off with sub standard drinks (food not bad but all unhealthy sugary stuff). The staff - who are always nice - are even embarrassed to be charging so much!

Loved this place, amazing position of course but a great atmosphere too and seems a place people care about. Well presented decor, clean, tidy and staff were lovely. Coffee, tea and cakes were too :)

Shambolic service, slow not enough room behind the servery as the staff were clearly getting in each others way. Great setting though and nice to sit outside on a sunny day.

Perfect place for a cup of coffee by the sea. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Saviory food options are limited.

Nice, even in awful weather. Only a qui k stop.

My local favourite coffee spot along the promenade.

Found it quite expensive for a cold hot chocolate

Nice cafe with good choice of cakes and biscuits. Service was quick and friendly.

Nice relaxed place with a great location, pumpkin latte lovely !!!

A sunny autumn Friday. Sat outside. Good kids play area. Lots of dogs which I like. Food seemed a bit limited.

Great experience, enjoyed my visit.

Lovely cup of coffee overlooking the harbour with delicious brownie!

Grandson loved playing and I could drink coffee

Love to sit outside (in all weather as its covered)with my dog and share a sausage brioche and a latte .no latte for the dog !🤣

Coffee or pastries not spectacular but the location and atmosphere makes this place amazing! Really cosy venue.

Very handy busy coffee shop along the seafront. Staff friendly

Why are people being charged 45p for oat milk. If three people pay for oat milk, they have the cost back. This is just scamming customers as people are trying to be healthy they are made to pay more. I am a veteran, and I will let my friends take their own milk if its Soya, Oat, or Almond. I, for one, will never use Coffee Cup again. It's a milk ripe off.

Great location but don't go for the coffee. We tried twice, only for coffee, but we really didn't like and couldn't drink more than half our cups. The cake was just ok.

Drinks are ok, no vegan options for food.

I was a regular customer, but the quality of the coffee was not very good for the price. ADDITIONAL fee for plant milk. After 6 months, I say to myself, I will check the quality of coffee and service to see if it has changed. Unfortunately: The staff probably didn't use the head to think, when ordering coffee with plant milk (vegan) they added and always do so normal whipped cream, without telling me anything, without asking if it was a preference or an allergy and if I hadn't asked, I would have drank it and maybe she died because who would I didn't care that I couldn't eat dairy products. Costa and Starbucks really care about quality and customers, even small family cafes are better. I do not recommend Coffee cup in Portsmouth.

Friendly staff, great views and nice coffee!

Lovely coffee/cafe on the promenade in Eastney. Only moved here a few weeks ago and already got my loyalty card full

Really like it here, great views and wonderful service. Food and coffee we're brilliant with that lovely smell of fresh air.

Beautiful pleace with greate view of the sea but quite expnsive

Always excellent coffee & staff. One thing, sometimes it takes a while to be served, however, their coffee is worth the wait. Food also good. Highly recommend.

Lovely coffee and milkshake. Thank you.

Applied for a job , got a text about an interview (already a very unprofessional to arrange an interview) , they said only Interview at 9:30 Wednesday. I work full time so I offered an alternative date, to which I was basically told no. Totally unprofessional and stupid way of hiring. I wish you guys luck hiring a supervisor as anyone available for a 9:30 interview with 1 days notice probably isn’t currently employed. Rude and blunt and didn’t even sign off with their actual name.

Honestly feel that the only thing that keeps this particular branch of coffee cup going is the prime position. If you had these staff in a location with other coffee shops nearby it would fail. Let me stress I am not talking about any other branch apart from Eastney. Staff have zero customer service skills. A lady asked whether dogs were allowed inside (patio doors wide open) and was greeted very abrupt ‘NO’. My husband had a hot chocolate and wasn’t asked if he’d like chocolate on top. Honestly politeness costs nothing.

Ordered a cup of tea Not great taste milk in container did not work Customer service poor

Lovely atmosphere and location, staff unfortunately rude and un-attentive. (+) Average coffee, average food. (-) Some of the staff could work on smiling more, being more polite, and not purposely ignoring you. Don’t normally write reviews but it really got to me.

Lovely spot for a light lunch, good choice of sandwiches and cakes to die for. Great views whether inside or out. Staff were very welcoming, all told it was a good choice for a spot of lunch

A wonderful location to sit and contemplate life, the universe and everything while sipping delicious coffee and nibbling on a lovely cake. With comfortable indoor seating and picnic benches outside it is ideal for almost any weather. The staff are friendly & welcoming, the service is swift & professional and the menu delightful & tempting. A fantastic little spot a bit away from the general hustle & bustle and ideal for children & dogs after a fair stroll along the promenade.

Good coffee spot on a tranquil part of the sea front, relaxing atmosphere over looking Eastney end of beach front! Lovely stop off and meeting point.

1x cheese and ham and 1xCheese and tomato toastie were awful- soggy bread, weird tomato mix and cheese unmelted for £4.95 each. Iced latte had ice, americano was hot. That’s all I can say really. Usually the cafe is a godsend on the beach front for a hot cuppa and fortifying snack. Not sure what happened today. Maybe seasonal staff and poor prepackaged toasties were just off the mark today. Will try again soon.

Cold, wet day so not being allowed inside with our dog a disappointment. They can set the rules. If I had know of this approach I would gone somewhere else.

Our first visit, really nice cafe with views over the Solent from Eastney over to the Isle of Wight, lovely cake, enjoyed the visit in spite of slightly imperfect weather... Good service as well!

Always love a coffee at the coffee ☕

Lame coffee! Watery..also watch your self from burning your tongue..it's way too hot!not right coffee temperature. Was sited outside waiting for the coffee at table, been served in takeaway cups..! Told the guy..it's not right..he said ..ok oh sorry..thats it..yep..what a coffee shop..

Great Venue right on the beach, really good millionaires shortbread - very poor coffee though. This was 10am Sunday before it got busy

Nice place to relax and enjoy the sea view, whether sitting inside out out. The food is good and the hot drinks are fab.

We could only experience the outside due to having a dog, hot chocolate for great and they gave us a puppy cup

Great views across Spithead. Great selection of hot drinks and snacks. Additional outdoor seating is good when it's a bright sunny day.

Fantastic coffee, great toasties and superb cakes. Service is a little slow, but you can see they are doing their best. Besides, you're at the beach, what's the rush? I never tried their ice creams, but they looked as good as the rest of the food. I always go there when I'm in Eastney. Well worth a visit.

Nice stop for coffee, ice cream etc. just remember to pay your parking charge... Not expensive.

Great service- it was a busy day and the people serving were polite and friendly
