The Gate in Fareham

This is a very nice tap-room with friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Always a good selection of beers to try. Well worth a visit

Exceptional beer and good vibes every time I pop in

Great beer. very good range of excellent beers. friendly helpful staff. great atmosphere

Fun place to have a nice drink, enjoy other people's company

Top quality drinks, great selection and love the food vans!

A great local tap room with good atmosphere and good choice of drink. Lots of locals from the area gravitate here. Always friendly.

Always friendly, always amazing selection of beers and ciders. Unity beers still my favourites.

What a lovely place. A real gem. The bar staff are brilliant, friendly and fun. The food vans are an added bonus and the ukelele jam every Sunday is absolutely brilliant

A pub ...that serves classic Old style beers , great selection. Has visiting food trucks that serve food on busy nights . Lots of music , listening to old style swing music now with The king of swing himself ...Roy .

Free nibbles on a Sunday. Nice people. Easy parking. 10/10

On my doorstep and never knew what it was, Quirky and a great place to meet up with old friends.

Great beer and amazing takeaway burgers from "three cuts burger" van

Brilliant chose of craft / Real Ale, really friendly landlord & landlady, Highley recommended, Absolute 5 stars.

Great real ale and good beer place to enjoy a good drink. Beers on offer were all good, some guest beers and I think some regulars. Gets busy for Friday and weekends. Some nights there is live music.

Lovely spot for a great selection of different beers, ales and ciders! We were treated with great live music too. What more could you ask for! 10/10 night

Makes visiting Park Gate worthwhile. Excellent friendly and knowledgeable landlord with a good range of quality craft beers on cask, keg and in cans. It does get busy so may be advisable to book a table.

The absolute best Beer / Craft Beer pub in the South. Always well met by the staff, friendly and with the best range of beer anywhere.

Great atmosphere friendly staff

Only one person was serving and it was very busy, and then they decided to have a fag break!!! One table of about ten was very noisy, and I was struggling to hold a conversation with my son, who I was down for the weekend visiting.

Didn't eat. Went and there was live music, band were great and the place was hopping 😁

Such a friendly and welcoming place.

Finally made it to The Gate after living a short drive away for nearly a year... Nice place, good selection of keg and cask ales, nice crowd, welcoming and knowledgeable barman/landlord 🍻

Great place for real ales and ciders, nice local place to go

The best craft beer bar in the area. 2 or 3 cask beers and 5 or 6 craft taps. Also serves Guinness, Czech Budvar and cider. A small intimate bar.

Great place to sample loads of different beers. Converted shop so not a traditional pub. But still vibrant atmosphere. Recommended

A local gem,great beers excellent service

A breath of fresh air in Park Gate Update: The Gate goes from strength to strength, so glad it survived the pandemic. Well done Graham, Izzy, Kirsty

Lively and good selection of ales & other drinks

Nice club house and friendly staff.

Just to be clear my scoring system: 1/ Don't go, just don't. 2/ I can't recommend going 3/ I enjoyed it but probably won't go back 4/ I enjoyed it, would go back especially if invited 5/ I enjoyed it, would invite/recommend others there myself Lovely little 'artisan' beer and cider bar. Landlord is invariably sat amongst his customers and can provide an in depth knowledge of the multitude of beers they serve.

The best draught beers in the area

Really nice place, best place around the area for a drink with good chill vibes

Love this place, love the beer and love food Thursdays! Easy going people with a great atmosphere!

Great friendly bar, large choice of ales.

Nice little place, bar tender allowed me a taster before buying a Rhubarb & Custard cider. Good atmosphere.

First time and I really liked it. Friendly staff, good atmosphere, excellent choice of all kinds of drinks from different brewers.

Great beers and really nice staff and place thye even let take our bike in the place as it was raining!

Great little establishment, wide variety of drinks available and staff are very genial.

Great atmosphere, perfect for a slightly more mature person who still thinks they're cool.

Food from the Thai kitchen was fantastic, ad was the range of ales on offer.

Great place with friendly staff and customers. A large display showing the large array of cask ales, craft beers and ciders. Always worth a visit

Excellent micro pub always good range of beers,brilliant friendly owner and his good lady wife, Customers also very friendly, what a pub should be good ale and chat.

A proper pub with welcoming friendly "local" atmosphere. Thankfully not your usual mainstream chain pub. Being a craft bar there's always varied selection of great ales from local and further a field micro-breweries; plus regular wines and spirits. Top landlord & landlady and always helpful, tentative staff. A real local gem!

Love this place. Friendly and some great beers. Real family feel.

Nice craft ale pub. Good choice of drinks. Sometimes a little crowded, Live music on occasions so not my first choice for a catch up chat. But we'll worth a visit.

Vibrant bar on the centre of park gate. Excellent selection of beers, which makes a change these day! Got quite busy on a Friday evening but great meeting place!

A great craft beer bar that strikes a balance between a quirky place that's prepared to offer non-mainstream beers and spirits whilst offering an old school 'local' feel with familiar drinks. Recommend.

Great little bar selling real ale and other local drinks as well as the usual ones. Food on thursdays a nice bonus but there are plenty of take aways near by

Great bar, shaking up the local pubs. Good atmosphere even during the week

Great little pub with a good selection of beers, cider and spirits.

Great atmosphere and friendly owners. A huge selection of some really great craft beer.

First visit last night. Great beer ,great atmosphere & a warm welcome from Mr.& Mrs. Parker! Another visit soon I am sure!

Great range of beers, lovely atmosphere.

Really nice pub with a great selection of beers; friendly and welcoming staff; cosy venue. Really happy to have gone in to sample an ale, it ended up being more than two though - they were delicious! Well worth a visit.

Great selection of drinks, well priced and a warm welcome 🍺

Great place, shame it shuts so early!

Really lovely little place with great beer and service! Glad we booked a table as seating is very limited!

Excellent craft beer bar in Park Gate, Southampton, good local and National beers, friendly service, nice friendly atmosphere

Lots of different beers to try. Family atmosphere. Very Friendly.

Great little pub/craft beer bar. Always a good rotating selection on tap. They seem to get just about every Verdant release which is impressive. Gets quite busy but never feels crowded.

Lovely craft beer bar, very friendly, with great beers (and ciders) on tap.

Excellent venue. Great selection of cask and craft beers. Very convivial and knowledgable hosts (Graham & his lovely wife) on beer AND music. Oh and BTW made the station by 1700!! (6 mins -it is mostly downhill LOL). Will see if I can include you on a Soton area crawl for the "beerdo's" group at some point. Keep up the good work.

A decent Pint 🍺 had some interesting beers, visited with friends & had a nice time, very popular with local people always a good sign, half way down the High Street in Parkgate, Easy Walking to & from Locksheath, Recommended.

Thank you for having us. You have a lovely venue. See you soon, Twisted Fiddle xx

What a bar should be. Great beer's friendly knowledgeable staff and very welcoming locals who made us feel at home.thank you all.

Very friendly local bar with a great atmosphere

Friendly little craft beer pub. Nice to have something like this in the local area, rather than the mostly chain pubs. Prices vary depending on what you go for, there are some very pricey options on the beer menu, more lots of more affordable choices too. They have a good selection of spirits behind the bar for non beer drinkers. As a side note a well stocked ladies loo is always a good sign that a business cares about the customer experience, and this place delivers on that too!

Friendly. Great choice of beers which you are given the chance to try before you buy.

First time visit excellent products and staff allow tasting before you buy friendly atmosphere

Great place. Small but good atmosphere - bar maid was lovely and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Well done to Graeme for hosting an excellent venue for meeting with friends and family. Great atmosphere and I am a fan of good beer; which you have plenty to choose from! Looking forward to a further visit soon 🍻

Very friendly staff, the ability to try the craft beers before you purchase is a bonus. Great and unique selection of beers and larger.

What a delightfully friendly atmosphere captured in the heart of Park Gate. Run by a lovely couple who welcome all with equal enthusiasm and warmth, the Gate has become a popular haunt for many. A range of good quality ales as well as an interesting collection of Gins and some sumptuous wines too - the Gate is only a small conversion from a shop in the "high street" but it delivers on all things that matter. We're not really pub people so The Gate really us a refreshing change. Try it, you'll like it. We certainly do.

Nice place, very comfortable and good atmosphere. Staff very welcoming and good location. Good selection of beer but some very expensive craft ale.

Great craft beer selection and lovely staff/owners. Nice atmosphere. Always have a great time here, my go to spot in the area.

Great welcome, service and beers. Lovely atmosphere and permanent addition to this area of Southampton not previously known for good beer. Well done all, Cheers!

As always friendly and inviting

Lovely place full of friendly people

Great beer served with a smile.

Lovely little pub that always has a good selection of ales. Great for a bit of a chat with a couple of mates.

Went there yesterday for a couple. Nice comfortable stop. And lovely cloudy cider.

Izzy and Graham run a wonderful craft ale bar highly recommended the best place in the area in my opinion and you can get take outs.. 5/5

Love this place! Fantastic choice of beers and very friendly vibe about it.

Excellent choice of craft beers, cask ales and premium lagers including the original Czech Budweiser. Friendly regulars create a warm atmosphere.

Snuck in for a pint and what a great place. Excellent beer selection, knowledgeable and friendly landlord. I will be returning.

Excellent beer and gin choices, great cider, lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff

Always a superb choice of beer, very welcoming and good atmosphere

Friendly by bunch both staff and customers great range of drinks

Lovely bar with great selection of beers which change regularly. Staff are super friendly as well.

Too many people in work clothes and not much social distancing.

Just what we needed, proper beer, nice folks and realistic prices.

Great choice of beers. The place was well laid out and the atmosphere was good. Barman was very friendly and knew what he was talking about.

Nice bar and friendly staff would recommend.

Great beer, surprisingly good wine and friendliness to match
