Poppins Restaurant in Portsmouth

I have been visiting the Poppins Café in Cosham occasionally for many years. What I like about the place is the consistence of what you get… If you like the food, they serve you are sure to get the same time and time again. It is quite a large café and can seat lots of people. The staff are always extremely polite and attentive. Your food order is delivered in a reasonable time. If you are arriving by car there is some free parking (1 hour max) close by, which is good. The spaces are limited so it is a bit of a lucky dip. I will continue to visit from time to time. Some of my reviews may seem unforgiving but I come from a time when everything was not “Awesome” and “near enough was not good enough”. So, if I say something is “Excellent” that is because it is somewhere better than most others… and well worth considering visiting. I hope this review was of help, please consider following my travels & reviews in the autumn of my life.

Really lovely ,clean ,lovely staff ,food 😋 tasty

The staff are very friendly and helpful and supportive and understanding and kind and it is very good value for money.

Nice cafe with lots of seating. Clean and tidy, friendly staff Lovely selection of food to choose from. Very efficient cleaning after every table vacated ready for the next customers. You get a proper milky milkshake not those thick ice-cream sundaes that some places serve up.

Good quality of food with great service!

The food was good and staff nice. I had curry with rice & chips instead rice or chips. I had no nan-bread. I was charged for a full portion of chips which I didn't recieve as I saw the portion size on a takeaway order. Very disappointed.

It's a chain so you know what you get. 4 coffees, one breakfast, one baguette £30. It ain't the cheapest

Had a lovely inclusive breakfast here today. With my lovely wife.xxx

I have been into Poppins for quite a few times now and I must admit it is a very good shop and a very good restaurant I would recommend Poppins to my friends and family and general public

Incredibly friendly staff. Very good food.

Amazing service and an amazing, friendly welcome. Food straightforward, tasty and freshly cooked. Great value for money. We're never disappointed when we visit.

Easily one, if not the best little places to eat for great prices, the lads who work there are chilled and happy to help.

Great food great service great price

Arrived in restaurant sat down and realised wouldn’t have time to eat. Went across the road and while sat down saw the wait or looking for me with my iPad satchel. Kind and considerate he looked out for one of his customers who didn’t eat there

Popped into Poppins for a full English breakfast, egg, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, hash browns, tea and toast. Excellent value, excellent service, extremely tasty. If you are in Cosham then pop into Poppins, you won't regret it. Excellent!! 👍👍

Took my elderly mother in law out for lunch. Had a nice pot of tea, jacket potato and chicken salad. Food was tasty and at affordable prices. The staff were attentive and friendly. Thank you

Place was busy busy and very popular yet service was good and time taken to serve food was acceptable

Very good food 👌 and hot when served staff very friendly many thanks 😊

Great service and prices. Recommend

very nice food, service excellent

Very friendly staff good service and coffee

Service prompt. Nice clean place. Cup of tea and warm scones with jam very nice and good price

Poor quality food and not cheap either, the mushrooms were over cooked and small, the single sausage tasted more like paste than meat, low end baked beans served with the meal, I would not recommend this place to anyone I know.

Excellent & friendly service, good value & tasty food.

Lovely food .and they all very friendly

A bit dated, not a lot of food for the money but friendly staff

Nice food. Good service. Busy place.

I visit this cafe fairly frequently and I’m always impressed by the courteous , welcoming staff , good food and attractive prices . The cafe is always kept clean and tidy and has an impressive and varied menu with very good prices . I would unreservedly recommend Poppins in Cosham to anyone wanting breakfast , lunch or simply a short break for tea or coffee .

The food was very tasty, the staff members were really polite and welcoming...only one reason for giving 4 stars instead of 5, there was no tissues in the toilet.

Polite smart young man serving had absolutely no idea about allergens and merely handed over an allergens list. When asked were chips gluten free said yes probably. We didn't eat there.

I come here quite often and find they do the best coffee .Have tried coffee everywhere . and they do a very nice breakfast.hard to beat.

Fantastic service and fantastic food

Top food here. No mess, all cleaned and tidy. An amazing grill restaurant

Poppins is the best café in cosham.The staff are so friendly nothing is too much trouble for them. Would highly recommend that you pay them a visit. Food is of good quality and the cleanliness it’s rated very highly

Absolutely lovely!! My only criticism is that EVERY Poppins has fixed seats im a big man and had to get a separate seat. The staff gave the best service. Tasty bacon, lovely sausage everything!!

El personal es servicial y amable. El asiento es lo suficientemente cómodo mientras se come, pero pronto se vuelve incómodo. El lugar está limpio y lo bueno es que el área de la cocina está abierta.

Me gusta mucho este Poppins. La comida siempre se compra rápidamente y es sabrosa. Muy buen precio para lo que obtienes, ya que el tamaño de las porciones es generoso. Personal amable y servicial.

First time visit loved the service and food loads of choice and room.

Nice place to have a good breakfast!

Cheap and cheerful. Great service

Been coming here for years and they've never disappointed. Clean environment, courteous and friendly staff and great food. What more could you want?

Cant beat a Poppins best one around so far staff are lovely make u feel so welcome

Great food. Fantastic service and staff are very friendly. Always go in with the family here and always satisfied

I enjoyed a freshly cooked breakfast which cost less that £5. Absolute bargain. Staff were very polite, wide choice of food, all very reasonably priced. I don't normally like chains but felt that this was very good. If you are on a budget this is the place to go.

Because the staff are so friendly and personable food is piping hot and tasty yum

Fantastic eatery. Great staff and brilliant staff.

best place in cosham for breakfast and lunch. give them a chance for show you that what i mean. highly recommended:)

Nice clean place to eat and meet. Pleasant staff and amazing meals.

Staff always pleasant. Food and drinks of good quality, good choice and good value.. Spotlessly clean in all areas. And you can see the food being cooked. Would definitely recommend Poppins.

Drinks were nice roll were hot service good

Love the range of food such yummy things to eat means i always break my diet eating here i make a special trip to go there as i dont live locally highly recommended

Good place to meet with friends for a coffee and meal

Smart cafe/restaurant, efficient and good value. Plenty of space and tables.

Very popular with the locals excellent service and staff

We have visited here many times and always get a warm welcome. The service is good and the food very good quality and value. I prefer the brunch with jacket potato but also like the cottage pie. My friend has prawns with jacket potato and the portion of prawns is very large. A very nice atmosphere despite getting busy lunchtimes. Very good value for money and very clean as the tables are quickly cleaned after the customer has left.

Love this place. Sean and the staff are really friendly.

I have been to various Poppins , this is not one of the better ones.

Love it here. Basic nice food at reasonable prices. Amazing service and very clean.
