2nd time choosing the Jolly Roger as impressed with our first visit. The 3 course menu offered value for money with 20% off a bottle of wine. The starters were very good. Salads fresh and well presented. The mains were also very generous, hot and well presented. The chips were really good. The owner has gone to a lot of trouble with the Halloween decorations providing an interesting atmosphere. We all considered the menu was quite creative with little twists which added to the quality of the food. All 4 of us were commenting on the generous portions and how much we were enjoying our meals. Unfortunately no room for a desert. Wine was also good. Well done to Chef and staff.

My wife and I had a lovely mid-week lunch with a friend at the Jolly Roger. It was the first time that we had been there and we found it very welcoming. Our server, Leigh, was lovely. The menu is excellent and everything that we ordered was delicious. Also really good value. We will be back! Many thanks

We have very recently visited the Jolly Roger for a Sunday Roast, and I must say it was the best roast we have had in many years. The meats including the beef and the pork belly were absolutely delicious. For deserts we had the Cherry Sundae, the Cookie Dough and the Sticky Toffee pudding, which were all first class. Praise too too all the staff who looked after us so well. Please try the Jolly Roger, I think you will be glad you did.

We went for a family Sunday lunch, table of 8 including 2 under 5s. The service was timely, friendly and helpful. The children were occupied by the colouring in supplied by the pub. The food was tasty and a great version of what it is. Be warned, the portion sizes are big, but you'll still want to leave room for dessert. Thanks for a lovely lunch, we will be back next time we visit.

Been working in hospitality for 20 years as chef/waiter. You have a beautiful location but service was not to match,ordered bottle of wine.No waiter opening it or offering a taste,no banter/chit chat/no food check back just didn’t feel welcome. It wasn’t busy for diners,if it was would be understandable. Food is ok but make customers few happy and special . When we first arrived we thought how are so many tables empty on such location,this answered our question. Such a shame

Wow. Appalling service. I booked a table on a Saturday because I knew it would likely be busy. Arrived on time and approached the bar, said I had a booking for 7pm. The young man behind the bar huffed, turned to his colleague and asked her if she could "sort this out". She was in the middle of making a drink and said she was busy. He then rolled his eyes and stormed off. Came back with a clipboard and shouted "name?" At me across the bar. I gave him my name and he jerked his head in the direction of the dining area. I asked if we should follow and he jerked his head again while rolling his eyes. He took us to a table that had one chair (there were 3 of us) and we then stood there awkwardly until he brought some chairs. He then threw some menus down on the table and told us there was "quite a wait for food". I asked how long and he shrugged. I said are we talking hours here and he shrugged again and started to walk away. The table next to us then asked why he was giving us menus when they had been told the kitchen was shut because it was backed up. Again, the guy shrugged, mumbled something about doing his job and walked off. Needless to say, we left. I get that staffing can be unpredictable and such. But all he needed to say to us at the bar was "I'm sorry, it's really busy here today and there's a long wait for food, do you still want to go ahead with your booking?" And we'd have left happily. But the obnoxious attitude and treating us like dirt was completely uncalled for. I get the job is stressful but there's no need to talk to people like that. Goes without saying that I won't be booking again, and my guess is that neither will any of the other tables who also said they had been waiting over an hour.

We hired the conservatory with a buffet for my mum's wake. The food was a mixture with vegetarian options kindly 'tweaked' ftom across the buffet menu's to exactly what we needed, it was delicious & very well presented & there was plenty. Extra chairs had been thoughtfully added & space made for us to put up a large memories board on an easel, we'd brought our own background music & small speaker & was even offered the choice of listening via thier own speaker system. Everything went just as we'd hoped, the staff couldn't have been more helpful, I would definitely recommend.

I've had some really good experiences here recently. But it does depend on which member of staff you meet. There is one very rude unhelpful lady one of the managers I think. She walks past customers as if they are a real nuisance. Doesn't appear to want to do anything chat or serve you. She doesn't make you feel welcome at all. It's a real shame the other lady manager I think is completely the opposite. Very helpful and welcoming. I had a meal recently and the service was terrible took forever to serve us. It's a real shame the food is much better than it used to be but service is terrible.

Today we decided to try The Jolly Roger for lunch which offers great tasting food which is great value. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and welcoming ambiance that sets the stage for a fantastic meal. One of the standout features of the Jolly Roger is its incredible pricing, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious diners without compromising on quality. The menu boasts a wide selection of mouthwatering dishes, but the real star of the show is undoubtedly the Southern Fried Chicken Goujons. These crispy delights are cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor, making them an absolute must-try for anyone visiting the restaurant.Aside from the delicious food, the atmosphere at the Jolly Roger is what truly sets it apart. Overall, if you're looking for a fantastic meal at a great price in Gosport, look no further than the Jolly Roger. And don't forget to indulge in their irresistible Southern Fried Chicken Goujons – they're truly the best you'll ever taste both me and my parents couldn't believe how good they were! They also had Vegan options which is a bonus as my wife was able to enjoy a meal with us! Definitely the best place for food in Gosport!

Told we could order to the bar area unless we wanted to hang out for a table in the resturant, Ordered 2 sunday roasts to a table in the bar which didnt have a number. Waited close to an hour for it and it was luke warm when it arrived. i managed to eat a third of it before it was stone cold. The staff there are not really on the ball. The dinner was brought by the general manager. We sat there with the dinner going colder while he went off for 5 minutes to bring back knives and forks. Never again.

My wife and I visited here 2 weeks ago hoping to eat dinner before we went out for a drink. Walked to the bar where a young lad was preparing drinks he didn’t look up or even acknowledge us waited for a few minutes. A young girl walked up to the bar and took the drinks she looked at us and walked off Still the young lad didn’t acknowledge us and started to do some more soft drinks looking bored stupid. I understand they maybe busy taking orders from customers already seated but all I expected was a Hello be with you shortly but to be ignored. I turned to my wife and said we’re leaving I won’t be going back any time soon..

Edited my review to say we won't be coming back any time soon after today's experience. Hardly any other customers in, the staff member at the bar and serving ignored us when we came in, didn't take a drinks order or give out menu's until we went and found him 10 mins later, we then had to go and find a menu, then repeatedly get ignored when trying to place an order. Waited 40 mins just to be able to place an order to get a small lunch. The food was fine. I'm sure when he's not there the Jolly Roger is as good as ever, but can't recommend the place now after today knowing someone else might get the same awful service as a result. My previous review: Really great find. Lovely pub food, very friendly staff and fantastic views of the harbour. There's a patrons carpark which is handy too. We'll certainly be coming back.

We live relatively locally. Been here once before in 2023. Had a lovely meal with a good selection of beer and wine. Came back in Feb 24 on a Saturday night, beer and wine selection is still great. But, the food leaves a lot to be desired. The wife had the Lemon battered Halloumi, was running with fat and couldn't taste the lemon. I ordered Cheese and Bacon Burger with Salt and Chilli fries. Very underwhelming meal. Just a burger and fries on the plate without the salt and chilli seasoning. Looked like a child's meal. Ask about the salt and chilli fries and was brought a small bowl of spice to add to the fries on my plate myself (cost me 50p to do it myself). Would be nice to have a bit of salad with the meal to make the plate more.appealing or add onion rings in with the meal, or both. I'm sure it wouldn't cost that much more. I will return to try this establishment again and hope that things would've improved.

On arrival was pleased with the way the place looked, although we werent drinking alcohol the booze choices are very good & bar staff were friendly, whats not to like right?....wrong! We were there for over an hour and no food in sight, we had been travelling all day & was absolutely starving. Bar staff kept staying the food was being plated up but yet after 20mins of hoping the food was now on its way we decided enough was enough & headed for McDonalds....so disappointed with ourselves that we waited so long in the end. Staff were understanding, just a really poor show on the kitchen side.

The food is ok, nothing to rave about, over price side dishes. Service was poor don’t come for food on Saturday night because you will be very disappointed with the service. By the looks of things the pub is more focused on selling drinks than anything else. Considering this is a table service there are no staff to be seen taking your order we have to go to the bar multiple times to place our orders as we were waiting for a while for someone to speak to us. The staff on the floor just look like they can’t be bothered or just they don’t care. They didn’t ask us if we need any condemned with our food, we had to get and find them ourselves.We also have to ask for the our bills we are waiting for a very very long time for someone to come and bring our bill to our table. Would I come back here for food absolutely not, would I come here for a drink maybe.

Went for dinner with my boys and dad, roast dinner was lovely. My boys are very fussy and had the chicken strips with salt & chilli chips, they said it was the best. Will definitely be going back. Nice to have a local with decent food.

Went for a quiet couple of drinks with friends. All ok when we first arrived, pub was not busy and easy to find seats. We sat down with our drinks to have a nice chat, when for some reason the music was turned up fairly loud which totally spoiled what we had hoped to be a quiet evening. We drank up and left. Jolly Roger, you are a pub not a nightclub!

Great find. Fabulous views across the water to Portsmouth and the Spinnaker Tower and the docks with Royal Navy ships. Friendly welcome and great service. The menu is very good with a wide variety. Nice £10 lunch menu including a drink. We went for the main menu, fish and chips were great. Well kept real ale, vast drinks menu, lots of great cocktails. Looking forward to going again.

Been here a number of times over the years, each time it gets a little bit worse, today was awful, staff rude and unhelpful, the Calvery was a burnt dry offering. Never again see photo, and to top it off had to wait for 5 mins for potatoes to arrive. Come on Marstons this is crap! Oh they won’t let me load the photo. I am not surprised

Such a wonderful place on the beach. Dog friendly. Lovely interior and beautiful design. I just wanted to have a hot chocolate on my walk. I went in and I was seated, but long minutes passed by and I had to chase an employee to give me the list of the drinks. I mean, come on! I told when I arrived that I would like to have a drink, why the lady couldn't give me the menu withouth chasing her up, when the place wasn't busy at all and there was enough staff on duty. I wasn't impressed how bored and not customer focused the ladies were there. I wasn't that welcomed and I felt like I could just stand up and leave, noone would notice. I wrote this review to give a honest feedback and a chance to improve. The employees should be way much more proactive and welcoming. I liked sitting inside, loved the place, but not the service. There is a kids corner too with books.
