The Lifeboat Inn in Havant

This is a no frills venue. Visited for music festival. Not any parasols on seating in the garden on what was a very hot day. It was very busy, drinks were reasonably priced and staff were polite.

Best pub on the island, great people

Everyone wants to make you feel welcome great sense of humour and rubs of on all the regulars, Ron

Simply wonderful food and atmosphere

Loverly place, staff are so welcoming.

No food sold but can take your own inside

1st time in the pub. Lovely staff lovely atmosphere will definitely be back

Was very cold in the place and the girld left early due to it. Band excellent as usual but did comment on how cold it was

Local pub with friendly atmosphere, dogs and kids welcome, good for sports, beer gardens, live music ( check FB page ), and friendly staff. No food served, but local to many takeaways within a minute.

We always have a great time. On Sunday they have a really good meat raffle. My friends andi have won a few times. And the music good too.

Love this place we go to hayling once month with dog always made to feel welcome. Thank you so much.

Went to see a band there. I asked a blonde, female member of staff for some water with ice, I was told they had no ice, so I replied a pint of water. The barmaid was verbally aggressive and told me I was being rude, got the water and told me she wasn't going to serve me again. I tried to calmly explain I wasn't being rude. She was again verbally aggressive and proceeded to tell all the bar staff. My background is customer service. I and my friends couldn't believe her response. I spoke to the Manager and explained what had happened after she had spoken to the police following an incident. The Manager was very apologetic. I understand we all have bad days, but her reaction was very unprofessional.

If you want a drink without a ten minute wait, head to the left... Otherwise you won't be seen.

Lovely friendly staff drinks are a reasonable price very comfy and just across the road from the sea 😀

My visit was to see a live band playing. They were amazing. Lovely staff, excellent beers and a welcoming atmosphere. We did not order food.

Feels like a proper pub should. Would recommend to anyone 😁😁

Great little local pub, I pop in here once every few months when I'm working over Hayling, nice rolls behind the bar, good draught lager and friendly people 🙂

Great beer, great live music and a very friendly welcome

Brilliant service provided and great night out

Best pub on Hayling Island. Friendly staff, friendly (but slightly odd) customers, great bands on a Saturday night. What is there not to love about this place!

Nice spacious Pub with a Lively Ukulele Group playing alternate Monday Evenings. Great to 'singalong' with. Oh yes I'm told beers good. (I'm non drinker)...

I love this pub but God dam do they need the heating sorted

we popped in with our kids on a windy day for a game of pool. nice place, facilities are spotless, good service, and got a game or two of pool.

Friendly staff, two bars, great music nights with DJ or live bands. Great for holding your adult birthday party in stage area.

Went there for a late drink and to see the live music. Peppermint Soul band were playing and they were really good. Pints of Doombar and Guinness were decent. The atmosphere was happy and enjoyable. We enjoyed our short visit.

Good pub. Good beer. Good service.

Merv (the perv) and Claire brilliant entertainers, soon left after their shift ended. Takeover staff seemed miserable. Brilliant place for a pint or 2 , 3 ,4 or more.

It's a joke! Me, my family, friends and group of kids arrived there at 3:40. On their website is information that food is served up to 4pm. Unfortunately not on Sunday! As we arrived from Portsmouth (on bicycles) was BIG disappointment!! We was told that they finish 3:30!!!! Just scam!just to bring people for alcohol!

Lovely little pub,friendly staff good prices

Great service, fair prices, lovely location opposite the beach.

It is your typical cheers bar. Dirty and looks like they haven't washed it for a long time, but it's a dog friendly place and locals seem to enjoy it. They currently do not serve food but we were welcome to order at the place next door and eat them in the garden.

Great pub friendly locals 😁🍻🐾🐾👍

Lovely beer but dead bird in the fish pond.

Nice big pub with a good atmosphere

Very friendly pub, great banter with locals, good selection of beers!🏖️🍻😁

Great staff, fair prices and live music on a Saturday

Great pub, with a great atmosphere. Staff are friendly, and the band ROTP got everybody in a good mood for enjoying the night.

Nice pub,great prices friendly welcome,all good 😃

Staff were friendly but the place is very tired

Friendly atmosphere great bands at the weekend . Feel good place..

Was nice and friendly I was sat out side in the sun

Propper sea side pub. Full of locals enjoying the good weather and each other. Fab

Great atmosphere and friendly bar staff an all round proper boozer 👍

Best pub on hayling a real pub

A very good pub. The staff had done a very good job in decorating the pub for Halloween. The band parallel lines was very good and played songs that you don't normally here.

Great pub, fantastic entertainment, lovely decor good selection of beers and ales friendly locals and very welcoming staff.

Scruffy pub but with a good atmosphere and excellent beer. Friendly staff. Scruffy may be a bit harsh it was very clean but a little tired.

Always a friendly welcome. Near the beach, and jam night every Monday evening. What's not to like?

Cracking pint of ESB, drunk in the very sunny seating area out front. Welcoming staff and locals.

Realy liked this pub as it is a proper pub. No downloading apps etc. A boozer and better for it. Very friendly staff. Comments say its a bit rough. May look it but its not really. Its cheap and cheerful with live music some nights. Unprtentious and seemed really busy compared to other pubs.

Lively pub with great music and friendly people.

Great beer, friendly staff & customers.

Great pub friendly staff and locals many thanks .. carling chris

As usual brilliant staff great local always made welcome

Lovely Man served us. Nice garden. Very friendly & helpful.

Lovely local pub set on the esplanade with great beach access. Sizeable garden with good table service. Lovely staff very pleasant. Well worth a visit

Fantastically friendly and pleasant barstaff

Very friendly pub. Great hosts.

Good service. Sunny table. Company questionable. But excellent time.

First time here yesterday and it was so nice, friendly and welcoming staff and good on time service. Good prices too and right by the sea too.

Friendly Staff, good beer, nice place to chill while having a drink in the sun.

Customer service could be improved

Lovely people, social distancing under control. Nice big garden. We visited with dogs who were welcomed. Would recommend x

great lively pub and coping well with covid restrictions. very friendly staff and very helpful. had a great few nights in there,.

Great pub to visit, our first time in Hayling and whenever we return we will head here, friendly team, happy for you grab fish n chips from the local takeaway to enjoy outside with your drinks. Can't fault, thanks 👍

Covud safe, well organised and very goid service

A normal feel with no clickiness, good service and great beer choice

Love it ! Brilliant staff and amazing x

Been going to this pub for many years and have always had a good time friendly bar staff however my last experience has changed my view this is no longer a friendly welcoming pub.one female staff member was rude and abrupt whilst taking our order and showed little skill in managing the public.

Happy with all that was on offer

This is a blinding pub if you like a proper drinking pub. A varied age group of patrons. The London Pride is a good pint as well as their Captain Morgans and bottled diet coke. The service is good but I think their rolls are slightly better (especially the Haslet and mustard). To all the staff concerned we would like to thank you for a great friendly experience. Ten out of ten from us.

cosy atmosphere and friendly staff,had fun at the pub quiz

Great little pub. Friendly staff.

Brilliant ! We were visiting from France for Christmas and it was just what we were hoping to find - real pub. Friendly chatty efficient bar folk - on both sides of the jump - and to judge by the amenities I would bet it hums in the season. Loved it!

First time on the island, pub is decent, live music was awesome

Nice views of the sea, good choice of food and drinks.

Always a great night when Parallel Lines play....

Nice local pub. Good food and music

Great atmosphere, watch the sport or listen to live music 🎼, staff are lovely, toilets are very clean you can even smell the bleach 😊 would definitely recommend this place to visit 😊

Great atmosphere and very friendly people.

Very welcoming traditional pub. Good selection of beers

Run down pub but good on music nights

Pub and food was great. Not impressed by the island itself!

Lovely place with good pub grub and in a great location. Good place for families as well as dog friendly. Indoor and outdoor tables. Friendly service. Easy to find and free parking if you order food.

Excellent hotel in Rossa dele mar

A bit run down but nice friendly pub

Great pub, reasonably priced drinks and live music

Been here twice,second time was take away chips,they didn't have jumbo sausages so that's why only 4stars. First time had a very nice burger inside,very nice quiet,next to the seafront,great food,I would Definately go there again👍

Brilliant pub. Great beer and wonderful staff. No food but plenty at sister pub just down the road. Mark and Tracey, the managers are wonderful people as are their staff. Great bands on when we went. Cheers
