The Big Wheel in Portsmouth

Spent a fun Sunday afternoon here enjoying some drinks. It was very busy but the service was good. We didn’t eat but all the food looked good. Good music playing in the background and a great, lively atmosphere.

Este lugar es uno de los pocos lugares reales que quedan en la tierra. Un verdadero desayuno frito completo con la taza de té adecuada servida en una taza de vidrio y todo fue perfecto en el mejor lugar donde debes ir si quieres saber qué significa ir a freír de una fritura adecuada sitio. No es un puesto falso, me refiero a un lugar real que tiene las almas de cientos de personas que viven entre sus bancos dudosos y su aspecto pegajoso. El lugar donde las personas deciden hacer cosas reales y vivir vidas reales y es un lugar que se vende por debajo de sí mismo con tanta fuerza que es ridículo. Pero eso es lo que lo hace tan especial. Porque está vestido como cualquier otro café grasiento todos los días.

¿Alguien tiene alguna información de lo que está pasando? Condujo más allá de esta mañana, mucha actividad obrera. Pero no puedo encontrar ninguna información sobre cuándo reabrir o qué tipo de local será. Extraño este lugar . . . no el palacio de Buckingham, pero está bien para una visita rápida con fácil aparcamiento.

Así que no señale esta crítica, excepto para decir qué gran lugar era para comer, nos encantó su desayuno y siempre fue una delicia cuando nos alojamos en el Premier Inn. Quienquiera que haya tomado este lugar, espero que no intente hacerlo demasiado elegante, o ser algo que no es, de todos modos, estoy deseando que llegue, aunque con un poco de temor a que se abra de nuevo y vuelva a comer aquí. Pero gracias por los recuerdos.

I took my daughter to brewers fayre southsea today as she always has me to dinner every week we had the carvey for a change the food was lovely and hot also the meat and veg was a good selection

Cafe was 5* all over. Food was quick, tasty and filled us up! All Staff was lovely from the back of the kitchen to the order taker on the till

Staff were lovely, quick and efficient. Food was tasty and was a bargain compared to prices inside victorious!!

Visité aquí un sábado por la mañana, no estaba muy ocupado, de hecho, éramos los únicos que estábamos sentados adentro. Esperaron casi 20 minutos para que los frijoles sobre pan tostado y huevo sobre tostadas fueran de muy mala calidad y los huevos se cocinaron en exceso. Tea tenía una película flotando en la parte superior. Los asientos estaban desgarrados y la necesidad de cambiar la mesa tampoco estaba muy limpia. No es un gran lugar no volvería.

Esperemos que este café ya haya actuado juntos. Visitamos el 23 de julio para el desayuno. Ninguno de nosotros pidió nada fuera de lo normal, aparte de un desayuno no tienen tomate debido a una alergia. Terminamos esperando casi una hora para 2 desayunos regulares y 2 lotes de huevos en tostadas. Solo recibimos nuestra comida después de preguntar dónde estaba nuestro pedido. En el recibo de nuestra comida, uno de los desayunos tenía tomate incluido a pesar de nuestra solicitud para que se haya omitido y el segundo desayuno tenía un hash brown que todavía estaba frío y parcialmente congelado en el medio. Tuvimos que esperar otros 10 minutos después de la entrega de los desayunos fritos para los huevos en una tostada y cuando llegaron los huevos estaban fríos y la tostada apenas más que pan caliente. Tomamos la decisión de no mencionarlo en ese momento porque teníamos que tomar un ferry y no podíamos perder el tiempo para esperarlos nuevamente.Mientras estábamos allí varias personas que habían hecho su pedido porque no podían esperar.Haremos el mismo viaje en un par de semanas, pero definitivamente encontraremos otro lugar para el desayuno.

Acabo de mudarme a Portsmouth con mi hijo, fui a este café ayer tardó 20 minutos para que nuestro desayuno llegue sin idea de cómo éramos las únicas personas en el café. El desayuno caro, pero no estaba mal, volvimos esta mañana y estuvimos en la caja registradora durante al menos 3 minutos, luego una chica caminó hacia el chef y comenzó a charlar. Salimos, no volveremos, desayunamos en el pub a la vuelta de la esquina a mitad de precio, también y más sabrosos

Stopped by for a quick sit down lunch and was very happy. The staff were polite and the food was lovely. Would recommend to anyone wanting an enjoyable lunch at a reasonable price.

Got searched as he thought I stole his bread and lolly’s but I didn’t. Proper bang out of order. Well I also thought that the cafe stunk and it was too hot

A group of 7 us went in for breakfast before a day out we all ordered just standard breakfasts which took 45 minutes. Cafe wasn't even that busy. This place could be a goldmine for its location if they could speed up

Sat outside under a parasol.So good for people with dogs.Inside seating as well.Served by a very polite young man.Excellent vegetarian breakfast.My friend had.I had a traditional breakfast.Very nice.Nice to have a basket of condiments given to you.With your cutlery nice choice on menu.I would recommend this nice.Down to earth cafe.

Great value for money reasonable priced tickets, for all ages. Friendly staff. Birds eye views over Solent and surrounding area.

Love this cafe. We both had vegetarian breakfast. Staff were polite breakfast was lovely. Shall be back again in September

The perfect place to stop for a hearty breakfast after a long walk with the dogs. Everything is freshly prepared & the eggs are cooked to perfection. The staff are so amicable & you can even choose your own preferences rather than be obliged to accept the set menu. I award 5 STARS for great customer service & very good traditional fare.

We were staying in the Premier Inn up the road and hadn't booked breakfast so thought we'd give this a try and we weren't disappointed - I had a Sausage & Egg Sandwich and my Partner had a Sausage & Bacon and they were both delicious - the egg was perfectly cooked and my partner said the Bacon was lovely, the mugs of tea were good too. Infact it was so nice we went back the following day for the same. Its a proper cafe serving good food. We would definitely go back again if we were in the area.

Had the vegetarian breakfast really enjoyed it.Nice atmosphere.coffee wasn't very strong but still tasted nice.

We were staying down in Portsmouth for the bank holiday weekend, we had walked past this well presented cafe on our walks to the beach, the outside area has the old style pub benches with red and black umbrellas giving people the choice to either sit in the sun or in the shade, as well as the seating area inside, every time we walked past it seemed busy and people looked as though they were enjoying and soaking up the atmosphere of the busy cafe, We decided to eat here on the bank holiday Monday, well we wished we had every meal here, the service was second to none, they have a wide range of food to suit everyone as well as hot and cold drinks, We ordered 2 All day English breakfasts and 2 kids meals, we were informed there maybe a wait due to it being busy which is understandable seeing as the whole inside was packed as well as the benches outside, we were expecting a long wait but our meals come out in a reasonable time, the food was very well presented and piping hot and tasted amazing, the staff couldn't do enough for us ensuring that we had all the sauces we needed as well as cutlery and napkins. We really enjoyed our experience here and will 100% be returning! The only regret we have is that we didn't visit sooner!

Four of us visited Bank Holiday Monday, not many in the queue and soon they took my order. Was ready in about 15 minutes. I had the cheese burger or so I thought. It was the worse burger I have ever had in my life. It was quite obvious they brought the cheapest rusk burgers they could then sold them off as meat. I had two bites and that was enough. It was like chewing on cardboard.

been going in to this café for years the food ok but as I look around could do better my meal was ok but my husband left his fish tasted funny and not white in side also the rateing I see was only 4 could be five with a little bit more training the girl be hind counter keeped touching her self like hair face and not washing her hands also some girl from the kitchen came out and done the same no hands washed tables not wiped over after people left sides was dirty fans had not been cleaned if they was switched on you would of got dust or fluff in your food and I think they should wear disposable aprons for serving I hope this will help them with they training

we passed by this cafe by chance with my wife and children , my wife had a lovely prawn baguette , I had a bacon Sandwich and my young one had beans on toast , all washed down with 3 drinks and it all came to a tenner ! - you cant ask for better then that in this current day.

Was on a day out pop in this cafe for a quick bite to eat and was very surprise with...

Elegimos este café al azar y pedimos pescado y patatas fritas. La comida estaba seco y duro como una roca como si hubiese sido recalentados muchas veces. El pescado era gris. Elegimos el comestible cosas pon esto a una experiencia. Es una pena porque la...

This is a lovely cafe based in Clarence pier,it has recently been taken over by a young married couple.who took...

Paramos aquí para algo de comida durante el fin de semana y al entrar me llevaron de vuelta por el mal estado. Los asientos estaban raídas en lugares y todo lo demás parecía brevemente. Con ser un resort junto al mar Southsea puedes esperar un cierto nivel bajo. Un estándar que aumenta el encanto de esos lugares, pero este lugar cayó muy por debajo del estándar. Algo una mano de pintura y limpieza profunda puede solucionar, estoy seguro.

We was down southsea for a family day out felt abit peckish so we came towards the big wheel cafe so we ending up in there the welcome was amazing couldn't do enough for you and the food was 100% for a little cafe definitely go back again.

this café has quite a tired appearance but please don't let that put you off the staff are polite the place is really clean and the food is priced really well and tastes lovely I can highly recommend the sausage baguettes nom nom definitely go back when we visit again

Really basic cafe , lovely food , would use againLocation is perfectLovely staff , great customer service

If you want nice fish and chips then don't go here. We asked for cod and chips and when it came it was obviously out of a freezer, and quite tasteless.

Don't mess around with a hotel breakfast at one of the PremierHolidayLodge places along the seafront in Southsea - spend your hard earned £6 on a proper fry up breakfast & mug of tea.Exactly what you need on a brisk winters morning before walking it off as you brace the seafront stroll.

The food was ok and the cafe is typical of the beach front cafe genre. The price was also what you would expect £5.99 for a fried breakfast.

Lovely cafe with perfect food at a great price with much to choose from. The staff are lovely and couldn't be more helpful and welcoming. The home made cottage pie was absolutely devine and we will definitely be coming again soon!

We come across this cafe on our walk from the hotel to the seafront, after having a bad meal in Brewers fair we thought we would try this cafe and was pleasantly surprised. It was a busy lunchtime and there was a tall young boy serving, he was very attentive to all the customers and although our order was tricky and confusing he made sure he had wrote everything down, the manageress was cooking in the kitchen and although busy had everything under control, all the meals we saw come out looked very well presented. She was doing a grand job at managing the cafe and all staff were very respectful and doing what had been asked. I love to see young people make a go of things in life and all the time this young lady is managing the cafe then it will be a successful one! The food was amazing and not something you expect from a cafe, they're are plenty of options to suit whether your wanting a big meal, a snack, or a light bite. Will defiantly be returning on our yearly trip to Portsmouth and have recommended this place to our daughter who is visiting on business very soon. Keep up the hard work and well done.

100% excellent service .lovely cafe .had a breakfast which was good value for money .staff are friendly and most helpful. Will definitely be visiting again x

This is a small family run café away from the main fare area not very big in size but but on its service and choice of food. From all day breakfast to a snack and at a reasonable price The service was quiçk and the food was hot and very good

We stopped off here on a family walk as we were feeling peckish. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was good and prepared quickly and there was something on the menu for everyone. We will definitely be coming back.

Today I went to the big wheel cafe in southsea and I was served by a lovely young lad with Impeccable manner so I tip him at the end! the food was perfectly cooked and considering it was hot busy and loud the food tasted Devine! the service from the cafe was the best I've been to and it's a social and comforting cafe! I recommend this cafe by a long way!

We were staying at the nearby Premier Inn. After using the attached Brewers Fayre the first night and found it a shambles we tried the Big Wheel for breakfast the next day and enjoyed it to the extent that we took breakfast and dinner there for the remaining days of our stay Monday - Wednesday. The food range isn't fantastic but its of good enough quality and the prices are favourable. On the Tuesday evening we told the manager that we would be in as usual the next morning for breakfast. He said he would be away but members of his family would be there to serve us. On the Wednesday morning I ordered "beans on toast and a mug of tea twice" The lad took two mugs and put a tea bag in each and then filled them from the urn (as usual). He stirred the bags in the water but I noticed the water was not becoming very tea-coloured. After a while he asked if it was strong enough - I said "no, what is the matter with the tea bags - are you re-using them? I put my hand on the mug and it was STONE COLD! I said "Its cold" and he said, "Oh the urn isn't switched on". He then went off with both mugs and I was half expecting him to put them in a microwave (as done in the film Muriel's Wedding) but he emptied them in the sink and came back, put in more tea bags and filled both from another urn (which was hot). He then rang up the bill on the register and it came to £5.40. I said "It should be £8.40 - 2 teas at £1.20 each and 2 beans on toast at £3 each = £8.40" He said "you want 2 beans on toast? I said "Yes, that was what I ordered". Anyway, when the beans on toast arrived they were cold. It was as if they expected the heat of the toast to warm them! I asked for them to be heated in a microwave. This was done and they were fine thereafter. In summary – you get what you pay for but check you are getting what you ordered.

I had the big one......that's a set breakfast and my counterpart had the English. Both meals were hot and very well cooked sausages a little too cooked and they tried to accommodate my fussy egg syndrome and almost got it right. The tea was brewed just right but the cups could have been cleaner! Overall I would rate just above average and would use this cafe again.

If you're staying at the Premier Inn next door, this is the place for breakfast.A proper English fry-up and a mug of good tea. Cheap and cheerful, just like all the best "greasy spoon" cafes. I'll be back!

Great cafe, very clean, fabulous fry up, good prices, friendly staff, definately recommend eating there.

Decent enough food and reasonably priced though the seating is somewhat tired and accompanied by an odd smell (all three children with us commented) though probably due to tell gas fire.However they all ate their food and ours too was fine. Must say the bangers and mash with onion gravy on a nearby table looked nice. And it's got to be better than Wimpy, right?

We had a couple of salads here, both were accompanied by quite vinegary items such as pickled cabbage and beetroot, the tuna was mixed with something that made it quite sloppy and not very attractive to look at but despite it's appearance it tasted okay. Prawn salad was okay but if you don't like too much dressing then ask beforehand otherwise it's drenched. Overall sounds a bit negative but it's fairly cheap and I suspect the fried food is better than the salads. Nice tea.

This Cafe is situated just behind the Funfair at the Clarence Pier end of the Seafront. Bright and cheerful, a typical good Seaside business with a large range of items at fair prices. Comfortable seating in quite a large interior and bench type seating on a sunny day outside. Why not try it out, you will not be disappointed.

We always come to this little cafe when we are in the area. The staff are great, the food is great and the prices are really low for the amount of food you get. They pile the plates up. This is well worth a visit if you are in the area.

I ate here a long time ago but my review is because you'll find this cafe in Long Curtain Road SOUTHSEA not in Farlington Portsmouth as indicated on the map. So just make sure you go to the address and not the map location.

A small and friendly cafe only two minutes walk from the Premier Inn in Southsea. We used this cafe for our breakfast while staying at the Premier Inn. The staff are pleasant, happy and obliging and willing to adapt the breakfast menu to whatever you require. Very reasonably priced with quick service and large portions. Well worth a visit if in the area, whether for breakfast, lunch or just a snack. The cafe opens at 8.30 a.m. so is ideal if you don't want the hassle (or cost) of a Brewers Fayre breakfast when staying at the Premier Inn. Can't recommend it highly enough.
