Tuvieron una visita increíble y jugaron dardos interactivos por primera vez, incluso tenían una tabla especial para los usuarios de sillas de ruedas también. El almuerzo era excelente lo recomendaría. Volveremos pronto

Visitó 2 / 11 / 24 para una comida y ver Celtic v Aberdeen en una semifinal de copa. La comida era muy buena tuvimos jamón de pollo y tarta de queso, que era encantador, PERO cuando el fútbol iba a estar encendido solo mostraron un partido de la Premier League inglesa. Pregunté esto y me dijeron que no estaban mostrando el juego del Celta. Publicidad falsa

I had a group of 10 come for pizza and darts. The manager Adana and bar staff Jess were incredible. They took all of our orders efficiently, provided us drinks and demonstrated darts brilliantly. They were attentive and created an amazing night for us. Thank you so much! Our night was made because of you both.

We as a group of friends were staying at the nearby premier inn overnight, before next morning going on a 3 night mini cruise. So we ventured out in the city centre main pedestrian street where we went into this lively pub. We found a seat and ordered food at the bar, I had the 7 oz gammon steak with chips, fried egg, pineapple ring and peas at £9.50. Food was good and reasonable value with staff friendly.

I went into this pub on Friday at about 3:30 after work just to get a drink. A girl was working behind the bar cleaning a jug. She saw me ignored me and carried on cleaning. Was just trying to get a drink. Waited for 7 minutes while being ignored then decided to leave. Disgraceful service

Just to give people “the heads up” if you’re feeling unwell and need to use a toilet cubicle, do let a staff member know or you will be accused of taking drugs in there and asked to leave, not only humiliating for our 6mnths pregnant daughter in law who had to experience this in front of friends and family and customers, totally an outrageous accusation which none of us will forget in a hurry, disgusting practice and ruined the whole evening😡

Been to this bar quite a few times and up until Sunday night I had nothing but good things to say about it. We were a group of 10 who had just been to the Madness concert at the Guildhall and had been in O’Neills before the show. We’d all had a few drinks but kept to ourselves so certainly weren’t causing any trouble. The bar was very busy with lots of people who’d been to the concert. My wife is 6 months pregnant and wasn’t feeling great so went to the Ladies toilet. She used a cubicle for between 5-10mins. She said that she thought she was probably going to be sick. My wife returned to our group and sat down. Shortly after, a member of the door staff approached her and announced “your group won’t be allowed back in the premises again this evening because we’ve been informed that you were in the toilets doing something you shouldn’t be doing.” He also said that it won’t be accepted that there is any other reason why you might spend that amount of time inside of a toilet cubicle. We laughed at first and my wife explained that she is 6 months pregnant, hasn’t touched a drop of alcohol in months and not that’s it’s particularly relevant but hasn’t ever touched drugs in her life. Our friends and family were furiously verbally defending my wife, equally as gobsmacked that such an accusation had been made. My wife is left feeling completely embarrassed and humiliated. I ask that any reader of this review puts themselves in my wife’s shoes for a moment and imagine that you’re out with friends and family when suddenly out of nowhere you’re told to leave because you’ve been accused of something that is not only illegal, but harmful to your unborn baby. Completely humiliating and ruined the night. We have since spoken to people at O’Neills via phone-call and email and haven’t received a single apology for the way in which my wife was treated. We are looking into taking this much further. Defamation of character is quite serious.

Nunca he estado aquí antes, pensé en intentar un cambio. Al llegar, nos pidieron que hiciéramos el seguimiento y el seguimiento de la AP y que nos desinfectamos las manos. Estaba muy ocupado, pero el hombre (no estoy seguro si el gerente) fue muy eficiente. ! ! Era un activo real, no entendió su nombre, cabello rubio / jengibre. Nos llevaron a nuestra mesa y nos preguntaron si estaba bien, nos sentamos del mismo lado debido al distanciamiento social, el pub era muy seguro en ese sentido. Pedí la hamburguesa a mi madre el pescado y patatas fritas. La comida llegó con prontitud y era preciosa. ¡Definitivamente vendrá de nuevo!

Durante un fin de semana en Southampton, reservé una mesa aquí para mí y mi familia, pagué un depósito de 10 ya que puede estar bastante ocupado y no quería arriesgarme a no conseguir una mesa. Llegué un poco antes de lo que esperaba con mi hijo menor, entré directamente y me senté en una mesa a esperar la llegada de mi otro hijo y su pareja. Pedí algunas bebidas en la aplicación, llegaron muy rápido y el camarero fue muy educado con una sonrisa. Alrededor de 20 minutos después, un hombre con un sujetapapeles se acercó a mi mesa y dijo "sabes que tienes que dejar esta mesa a las 8, ¿verdad?". ¿Cómo sabría esto? no había ninguna tarjeta reservada en la mesa y nadie me dijo cuando llegué. Encontré su manera de ser grosera, le expliqué que tenía una mesa reservada y él dijo que estaba bien porque la mesa en la que estaba sentado era mi mesa reservada, pero debo irme a las 9 pm. Poco después de que mi hijo y su pareja aparecieran, lo detuvieron de entrar, pero el mismo hombre hasta que mi hijo explicó que se encontraba con alguien aquí que ya había llegado, el hombre con el portapapeles le dijo que teníamos que irnos a las 8. 30? cuando me lo había dicho minutos antes de las 9 de la noche.Entiendo que este lugar es bastante animado y era temprano en la noche de un sábado, pero un grupo de alrededor de 8 personas estaban a 2 mesas de distancia de nosotros que ya estaban muy borrachos, gritándose entre sí, maldiciendo y en general molestando a los otros clientes. No soy una persona irracional y entiendo que la gente se pone ruidosa y ruidosa cuando está afuera y se divierte, pero le gritaban a la gente de un extremo al otro del lugar llamándolos "c * nts". y ni un solo miembro del personal les habló sobre su comportamiento y continuó durante más de una hora, al final nos fuimos. lo cual es una pena porque la comida era muy buena, muy buenos precios, los bistecs estaban cocinados a la perfección y buenos tamaños de las porciones. La camarera del bar era muy conversadora y feliz, siento que el personal del piso decepcionó al lugar. me desanimaría visitar de nuevo.

Popped in for lunch and drinks. The meal deal was 2 for £8.50 which was good, my bangers and mash was tasty but you couldn't see the mash for gravy. My wife's chicken Caesar salad was chicken on a bed of lettuce and the leaves were brown. When telling the waitress she argued that's how it came out of the bag with no apologies. When asked why the chef didn't check the lettuce first she just walked off. Won't eat there again.

Well I was a regular customer to a degree but today that all changed there was a new obnoxious manager there who decided to pounce on us before we were even seated.. she told me to remove my son from the slot machine which may I add he’s 2 can’t really reach the buttons and definitely not big enough to put any coins in the slot. She could see we were just getting highchairs for the table and getting everyone’s coats removed but still she insisted then a fellow member of staff decided it was a great idea to physically try to move him from where he was stood. When I told her he was doing no harm she said he was promoting gambling and would be fined if a police officer came in. I’m sorry but he is not big enough to properly reach the buttons let alone the coin slot and he doesn’t have any money of his own to gamble with so under no circumstance was he gambling. She clearly was having a issue and needs to resolve this issue. To a child of 2 a fruit machine is pretty lights they don’t know what it’s for or how to use it!!! I’d definitely advise never go here they are rude and talk to you like your stupid even though she was the one who clearly had issues firstly pouncing on customers then trying to man handle a small child followed by rude customer service and ridiculous behaviour clearly not a child friendly pub after all!!!! Disgusted with the service today.

We popped in for food, I first thought it was a bit like Wetherspoons but unfortunately the food wasn’t. We both had gammon and change the chips for a baked potato. The food was a bit slow in coming. The gammon was cooked well but the potatoes were a bit dry and the peas were like pellets. The gammon came with the smallest pineapple slice I’ve ever seen and a hard fried egg. All in all not bad but needs improvement. On the plus side they had good beers on.

Visited here mid after noon Saturday just before the world cup match between France and Argentina started.....We had been shopping so popped in for a quick snack and a few drinks to cool us down.....It was quite busy as one would expect so we had to wait a little longer for our food but nothing untowards.....The air-conditioning seemed to be rather erratic but things weren't too uncomfortable....That was until the football was switched on and the volume of the commentary was set far too loud...It seemed to take ages to be turned down and even then it was too loud for us all....Don't get me wrong I love watching football but the volume should be controlled more.....Because of this I've only rated it a three. Not a bad Wetherspoon pub but not the best I've frequented......Could do better......By the way....food and drink was excellent as was the service we recieved.

My wife and I stayed in Southampton 20-22/04/2018, Sunday morning we visited the weatherspoons venue (spitfire) for breakfast before catching our train home. Luckily we had two hours for the train. On ordering we were told 30 minutes wait on food, a guy with his two children ordered ahead of ours. The place was not very busy possibly 15 couples aprox, two chefs were on the breakfast meals supply. After 55 minutes ours arrived and was not that hot, several customers did complain and sent them back. However the guy with the two young children got his after us and my wife and I was amazed they had only ordered 3 bacon sandwiches (55 minutes really ? ), When next in Southampton im afraid we will go elsewhere. I would also add that one area of the spitfire was roped off, so as you can understand not that busy. The manager did go around apologizing but i think a review of staff performances required not apologies

First ever visit to the spitfire, and I must say I'm impressed. The pub was warm and welcoming a great overall atmosphere, for the most part the staff were very friendly and helpful, they seemed to enjoy their jobs.. The cocktails were lush, at this point in time I can't comment on the food, but I intend to visit again so shall definitely be giving the food a go. Only downside to the overall, fantasic and clean pub is that the ladies toilets need some attention, as there are broken toilets seats... Definitely worth a visit, even if its just for the friendly staff.

On our first ever visit to Southampton and after walking around all day decided to have a meal here. First impressions wasn’t that great, tables needed clearing from plates and glasses. Decided to stay as so hungry. The menu had a decent choice and reasonable prices. Hubby had cod and chips and I had sweet and sour chicken. The bar staff were busy talking to one another so took longer to get served. The food quickly arrived. Hubby said there was more batter than fish. Mine was ok. Bit bewildered why it was chicken in breadcrumbs not just chicken? It was quite tasty. Portion size good and the food was hot.

Great section of beer and very friendly staff. Possibly the cheapest bar in town. Will use again if in the area

Went for lunch with my husband. Had a very enjoyable meal and great service. There was a varied menu and the food and drinks were very good. Our waitress Julia was very attentive and helpful and friendly

I had my first visit to the spitfire today. I had a fantastic experience and would definitely return again. I was recommended the Katsu chicken and sweat and sour chicken (which was great value for money) after being helped by staff member Julia behind the bar. She was very helpful to me, was patient and answered all my questions with a smile - a great asset to the team. Wish I had a chance to tip her and would be back for the same level of service in a heartbeat! :-)

I have visited the Spitfire every week for the past couple of years. It's been consistent in it's service, food, value for money and cleanliness - it's definitely somewhere I'd recommend. Even when it's busy, the food is served in a good amount of time with the staff being very accommodating, friendly and helpful (especially Mark!)

I used to eat here regularly and always found the food to be good and the staff helpful. However the now have an older east European bar maid who feels its her position to make personal comments about customers and be generally rude. No problem, plenty of other pubs in the area.

Went to the Spitfire for an evening meal, two adults and two teens. Good atmosphere considering it was a relatively early Thursday evening and great service from young blonde lady behind the bar.

Large spacious premises with a good selection of ales. Went on a Tuesday evening and did tend to be a student venue.

Spitfire is a good place for drinking beers and watching the TV. Nowadays I require more than that though, even from a pub. Not being able to order decent salad is not good with me. Atmosphere overall before a home game was lame.

This is very much a value sports TV pub showing the football etc. The food is very average and the prices reflect this. Staff are friendly and food is served promptly.

Didn't like someone being out side the entrance along with people shouting and swearing.

Pretty well what you would expect from Weather spoons. Parking was not easy

This costa is dirty and disgusting. Every table was dirty and most full of empty trays and cups whilst the 2 staff stood around chatting to each other. Had to ask them to clean a table so I could sit at one with my 7 month old baby. Highchairs were gross, the straps have clearly never been cleaned and were just covered in gunk. This place needs a massive deep clean

Went recently as a guest at a kids' 13th birthday party. Had an awful experience. The bar staff were extremely rude, bar one lady. Paid for the hire of the hall, the landlady complained to us about the music not being to her taste and she didn't want to listen to it all night so she went to our dj and complained about it requesting older music at a children's part. Also the host paid a member of staff for the night to be our side of the bar for the night to serve adults drinks, but there was hardly anyone there so they had to go around to the otherside where everyone else was not the private part that was hired and staff paid for. There was a two situations at the party which was sorted instantly when was told, then for the landlady to be going around telling adult guests about the issues for them to deal with it which is not the guest responsibility. Also, a huge amount was paid for a buffet for the party, and for what was paid for the food, it was poor quality, was cheap, and not thought about at all. Kids were being moaned at by 2 of the staff for anything that they had done. They were also accusing and telling guests that they thought 12 year olds were doing drugs in the toilet as more than one child went into the toilet at one time. How the host was treated and spoke to, very patronising and belittling, they couldn't enjoy the night as the staff was constantly on their back about any minor thing. Very poor experience and wouldn't recommend it to anyone again. The amount they're charging for private hire is disgusting the quality and rudeness you receive, host, and guests.

Lovely little pub with an obviously vibrant set of regulat locals. Reasonably priced and great for a spot of privacy
