Jj;s Restaurant & Jonnys Tap Room in Havant

Came for Mothers day , not the greatest time to be honest quite disappointed the food was terrible and stale will not be returning really gone down hill and so much competition around for a Sunday roast in Emsworth .

Went to JJ’s on a Friday night upon arrival it wasn’t made clear where or who the front of house was so we stood there awkwardly, until we approached the guy behind the bar and explained we had a table booked, however after that I really polite waiter took over and took us to our table he had a really kind tone and was super polite never having to wait for cutlery or go out of our way to ask for something as he was already one step ahead. In regards to the food the food was nice specifically the starters I can recommend the halloumi starter it was wonderful I also had the burger which was average, but made with nice fresh ingredients just the taste wasn’t up to par with things I’ve had previously. And then the location and overall feel of the place, the restaurant is a really cool one inside and out definitely Instagramable and being just up the way from the water if your here with your significant other there’s a chance to go for a nice walk around the water after. Overall I had a nice experience here I’d say if your coming in for some drinks a nice vibe and some picky bits you’ll have a great time, however if your soul focus is a meal you’ll have a nice one but in my experience it won’t blow you away just due to the experience I had with mains, but it’s a cool restaurant with nice staff at its core so I would recommend

The best Breakfast ever. I have been having breakfasts here for months, its consistently good, I will keep going back. Steve cooks it to perfection and the girls, Mel in particular are pleasant and efficient. Inside its very welcoming, with quirky decor and lots of different table/seating arrangements. A Gem.

Excellent food … Chef was great we sat near to the pass and chef served our food thank you chef! The gentleman that served us was friendly and helpful

Wow wow wow fantastic experience we were served by a wonderful quirky lady dressed delightful ,my self and our friends were just mesmerised by her , the service was top quality as was the food even though her herself and her colleague looked very busy. Nothing was too much trouble. We shall be returning and have already booked for my wife’s birthday spot on JJ’s a fabulous find

I am an avid fan of this wonderful lovely vibrant exciting pub and have wanted to eat here for ages . Myself and three friends decided to eat on a lovely sunny day . One friend had the egg ham and chips , I had the lovely salmon avocado and egg salad , my other friend had the Caesar chicken salad and my other friend had the chicken wraps . All happy with our food , great service , average prices and a good time was had by all .

What a night, fantastic cocktails and the best fillet steak I have ever had. The decor is fantastic and the team were amazing

My sister and I had lunch here today (12/5/24 ) It was a treat for my 82nd birthday. It was my first visit her third . We ordered Sunday roast, I had pork and she had Beef. She had booked the table 24 hours previous. We ordered drink and our dinner arrived very quickly. My pork was o a massive chop covered in gravy buried under was red cabbage, one carrot a massive Yorkshire sitting on top and Broccoli was not cooked,We had to ask for a spare plate so to put the chop on so I could try and get some meat off. My sister meal was as bad. We had a refund for my meal, very disappointed.

Lovely place,good food,great atmosphere ,staff very friendly .I love this place and the beautiful decor ,the vegetarian food very nice .

Fabulous Breakfasts..a must visit day or night,lovely ferl to the whole place.. It is very relaxing and very unique for the area. Good quality food, fully stocked bar, and fabulous cakes ....

The worst roast dinner ever ! Imagine was cooked some time ago and kept warm on heating tray for ages , as it was very dried out ! The Roast potatoes served were really burnt and the stuffing hard as rock , couldn’t cut it . These were changed , not much improvement on stuffing . The cauliflower and brocolli Cheese very dry . The Pork was very dried out . Whole dinner lukewarm . Very disappointed .

Amazing family Christmas party, couldn’t fault it at all, would highly recommend to anyone who wants to get in the festive spirit

Myself and best friend stayed at JJ's on their opening night for their new hotel rooms, wow is all we can say, what stunning, beautiful rooms, all themed, not your average run of the mill boring corporate rooms, we stayed in the renaissance room which was beautiful but we also checked out all of the other rooms, we want to come back again and stay in the Monkey room. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly as was the owner. First class

we wanted somewhere different to go. We looked on line at the menu before hand, so knew what we wanted. We chose the meat plater, as we fancied the steak, pulled pork, coleslaw and onions, chorizo. I'm not keen on the rest of the meat but my husband is. When our meal came, we noticed no pulled pork, told that there was a menu change its now Belly pork! Wasn't told at time of order. Also at the end we also noticed no coleslaw or red onions. We were told afterwards they should have been put on there. The platter cost £54, we were give £13 off even though we said we didn't want one. The point is, if we had been told at time of order no pulled pork and it was Belly pork we wouldn't have ordered the dish. So 3 out of the 4 things I was looking fwd to weren't on the platter.

In a world of dull boring restaurant chains offering boring choices and bland offerings, JJs is a beacon of light and great fun. A unique and Superbly decorated establishment, a genuine warm and friendly welcome, superb staff and cocktails and delicious food. If this places doesn’t succeed there is no hope or justice in the world. I Can’t wait to return! Absolutely loved everything about this place. Very good value. Well done.

Kicked out my sober friend and refused service the second she walked in claiming she's drunk when sober

Apart from the food, drink and surroundings the main plus was the service from the staff who each went out of their way to make us welcome and ensure everything was as it should be. Lovely bunch of people and they made our visit exceptional.

A family member recommended Jj's to us, so we decided to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday here! The place was beautifully decorated, the service was excellent and the food was amazing! We will definitely be back!

The quirky interiors and decor are what really set this venue aside - it's always a pleasure to go in and sit in the eccentrically decorated outside area, in particular. But the food is horrendously overpriced - easily a third again over what I'd usually expect to pay - and only really of a very middling quality - certainly not of a high enough standard to justify the very high prices. The staff are generally lovely, but the service is not great - we waited 40 minutes for someone to ask if we'd like fresh drinks during our meal, and in the end gave up on the idea of getting cocktails and just left once we'd eaten. The manager needs a particular stand-out mention as she seems to go out of her way to make customers feel like an inconvenience. All in all, a fun place to pop in for a drink but I would definitely not recommend eating here.

Well, where do I start? The exterior just shouts “FABULOUS” in big shouty capitals! My friend took me here yesterday to celebrate my 60th birthday……I’m hooked! The decor is bonkers but classy, loud but with finesse (if that’s possible!) and when you step inside you’re taken to another world! Greeted and seated in a friendly and welcoming manner then we perused the cocktail menu….all fabulous but we only had one! The food portions are fantastic and so reasonably priced. Good quality food served stylishly and promptly even when very busy! All in all, this place is a must visit for any occasion or just because you can!

Lovely food and good selection of drinks. Surprisingly reasonable prices. Sharing platters are more than adequate for two. Will definitely be visiting again.

Absolutely fantastic Halloween evening. It's hard to describe what was better, the food, the live entertainment, the atmosphere and wow! the decorations . The staff were amazing (especially Belinda) really couldn't be more friendly and fun. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Well done to you all.

Morning John, sorry to be sending you message like this, but I have to say it is with great disappointment that six of us had to walk out of JJ on Sunday. My sisters had booked a table at 3:45 3 weeks ok for my birthday. To be told on arrival you’d run out of roast dinners this was very disappointing. The reason given was they’d been so busy. Surely there should be enough stock left for those that have booked!? or why were we not asked what our dining Choice was before we arrived. I’m not one to complain, but when everyone was so looking forward to it was a real shame.

We have been 3 times now and each time the service from the management is very poor. As a minimum you expect a smile and a greeting but we were looked at like we’d crawled in off the street. The female in question should not...

Wow. What a surprise to find this wonderful place in Emsworth. 100% Ambience. Worthy of Covent Garden. Excellent food. with interesting menu.

Wow what a venue! Totally up my street. Delicious food and coffee (please make Latte a little less hot), quirky venue, fabulous service and the sun shone to boot.

We had been visiting JJ’s for lunch frequently, until one Tuesday afternoon at 2:30pm we made our way in the rain to find ourselves refused entry due to having our 8 day old baby with us! 2:30pm on a rainy Tuesday afternoon when the restaurant...

4 of us went here Sunday, although we didn't have a booking they found us a table. The place is really nice, very quirky nice atmosphere, we had 2 shareing platters, fish, prawns, steak and lamb which we all really enjoyed, we then went downstairs...

Stumbled across this really nice restaurant/bar. Nice decor throughout, lots of different little parts to it, a tardis! Great food, good value with very friendly service.

Have been looking forward to visiting since JJ’s opened and visited on a busy midweek Wednesday night. I popped by earlier in the afternoon to drop off a birthday cake as we were celebrating a birthday,to be greeted with huffs and puffs and a lot...

Very quirky bar and restaurant inside. Nice garden area. We sat out front for a lunch time stop. Very friendly staff and the sandwiches were great.

Flamboyant, quirky bar/restaurant with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. You have to see this place. The bar area is decorated in a unique style, comfy chandeliers and works of art. Very arty but tasteful. The upstairs restaurant is beautiful too. There's a chic cocktail...

Visited this quirky bar for a few drinks. Delicious cocktails !! Especially the piña colada’s - not on menu but made on request without hesitation! To say they are define is an understatement!! Cocktail mixologist is very talented for sure! - biggest thank you! Must...

Couldn't believe how beautiful this new venue is. Great decor and a lovely sun-trapping garden. They didn't have beers on the menu when we visited which seemed strange - because we still couldn't go to the bar and order at that time. I was told...

The front of house staff ( Tina) managed to squeeze us in to a fully booked and busy bar.. The staff were extremely busy... but very helpful..Dougie (?) the cocktail barman is first class.. This place is quirky/ classy/ up market/ and friendly all in...

Really lovely quirky, fun modern but keeping the old magic of the building restaurant/bar. Very attentive, friendly staff. Not a huge choice on the menu but certainly enough to make your mouth water with anticipation. Good cocktail choice and wine menu. Will definitely visit again...

Such a fantastic evening at Jjs - we were on a staff night out from a local school. The service, Tina the fabulous hostess, food and drinks were sensational. The live music from Archie was something else! Such a talent really engaging with his audience...

We were looking forward to trying JJs but not a great experience. We ordered two glasses of white wine. It was warm and tasted watery. Not a good start. Tap water was tepid. Surely both should have been chilled? Menu limited but ok - two...

JJs is a unique restaurant, I was so impressed with the service, the food was exceptional and atmosphere was excellent. I highly recommended a visit!
