The Sailmaker in Gosport

Been here a number of times over the years, each time it gets a little bit worse, today was awful, staff rude and unhelpful, the Calvery was a burnt dry offering. Never again see photo, and to top it off had to wait for 5 mins for potatoes to arrive. Come on Marstons this is crap! Oh they won’t let me load the photo. I am not surprised

Very good food, service brilliant, staff very friendly and polite

Always friendly staff and the food is of a very good standard with a good and varied menu

It was a busy Sunday, but we didn't have to wait long for our table. We all decided to have a carvery, and it was very good and well stocked. We will definitely come back again.

Great food, top-class service - Vickie and Ola. Relaxed atmosphere and delicious beer. I recommend.

Great food, piping hot and arrived really quickly. Staff very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend and will be returning!

The best place in Gosport. Be sure to come and eat tasty food. Vicki-e and Ola professional service.

Made us feel absolutely welcome and a super family atmosphere. Great food . Wonderful start to our holiday. Thanks Vickie, Ola and Jess xx

Vicki, Jess and Ola were so brilliant a fantastic start to our holiday xx

Vicky is absolutely amazing! Such good service I will be returning! Thank you

Fantastic service from Vickie and Lauren. I was served quickly at the bar and both the ladies were very polite. Roast beef was delicious on the carvery and i will not hesitate to recommend to friends and family's

Very comfortable with the service

Has got to be one of the best carvery dinner I've had in a long time with pig's in blankets and mixed roast veg yum 😋

The food was lovely! We had a roast carvery and the beef especially was so tender! Really lovely meat. The service was warm and welcoming and the atmosphere of the pub was very family friendly. We used the scan code for the first time to order and it was quick and easy and we had no issues. We love coming and we are already planning our next visit

Go in this pub after a small food shop locally. Nice and clean and plenty of tables.

The most awful roast I have had. The beef tasted like corned beef don't know why so would appreciate confirmation as to why. The gammon was very salty & sloppy texture. No greens only peas. Roasts ok but Yorkshire although massive was so tough I couldn't cut it. Won't be returning

Lovely very tasty food, excellent service.

Would just like to say your young server brooke what a lovely polite and hard working girl she is ..she hasn't stopped tonight x

Lovely little pub and great carvery

Had a really nice time. The staff were all really nice! Olaa served my food and severed me at the bar. She was very polite and kind. Thank you!!

This pub has a real opportunity to impress. It's in a location close to several leisure facilities, including the ice rink, which is well attended for weekend matches. The food is ok, but the service is nothing short of appalling. We waited well over 20 minutes for a drink at the bar, and it wasn't even that busy. Although admittedly it was 7pm and the ice hockey had just finished. The bar and waiting staff look bored and disinterested. They were in no hurry to serve people who'd clearly been there for some time. Having said that it's clear the pub is massively understaffed at busy times, so you can probably understand the staff's frustrations. We've been using this pub for several years, and the service has never been great. Now it's almost unusable. We even noticed a family of 2 adults and 3 children who arrived, were told to wait at the bar for their table, and then left after 20 minutes as not one member of staff had been to see them, or offered them drinks. Best avoided sadly, as it's in a good location and should be able to cope on a fairly busy evening.

Very disappointed took family from London for a carvery no beef no turkey just gammon £12 is a lot of money for a plate of vegetables and it was 6 pm not even late in the day didn't make a fuss as it would be embarrassing for family as they were paying

Absolutely banging. SJ and Vickie were wonderful!

Terrible evening! Will NOT be returning! No idea of allergens….when asked we were made out to be a pain ( mum has a garlic allergy ) carvery looked dry and like it had been there all day….this was at 6.30pm….we then changed to menu meals which were just as bad…and 3 of our party ate before the other 3. No helpful staff and will not recommend

A lovely pub with great food and good people in a relaxed atmosphere.

Olaa and lauren have been brilliant and more than helpful. Food fantastic, staff amazing

Olaa & Lauren have provided an excellent service over the pass 5 days of my stay at the Premier Inn. Pleasant, polite and friendly. 10 out of 10.

This is a nice pub. The food is decent and the staff are really friendly. Also the big cakes they do are a real bonus!

Very nice food, reasonable priced and nice setting and staff.

This is my first visit to Sailmaker and it definitely won't be my last! The staff are all polite and the service is great! Highly recommend

Reasonable selection of drinks & good quality meals at a reasonable price. Roast is especially good value & with excellent service from Vicki & Lauren

Came in for lunch and had a great experience. Brooke and SJ were brilliant with their service.

Recently had a carvery here, and had left a five star review because it was amazing! Second time visiting within the last two months and yet again another amazing meal, this time had the spicy beef burger and it was spot on! Catered to my changes I wanted as two burgers was to much for me, and removed salad but kept the rest, pulled pork, crispy onions, jalepenos and sauces. Cooked by Chef Sophie, so Sophie thank you very much. An incredible spicy burger!!

Very welcoming, speedy service and great food. Thank you very much. We’ll definitely book again

The food was delicious, i really enjoyed myself. I will go back for some more. The staff were very welcoming too. Clean place too.

Great pub!!,I stayed at the premier Inn next door,I went over for dinner the manager found me a table and I enjoyed a few pints of Pedigree then had a nice steak with a glass of red wine, Polite friendly staff and great service👍

Cracking lunch thoroughly enjoyed it!

A clean and tidy little pub/carvery. A little pricey. The staff was very friendly. I didn't have a carvery so can't comment on that. But what I had was nice and tasty.

Came for lunch with a friend the pub was busy but didn’t have to wait long for our food my friend had a Carvery which I tired I have to say it was very nice I will be having that when I come back

Hello had a fantastic meal at the sailmaker today it was lovely the stuff are kind and helpful and the chef who did are carveys for my family

Team are all lovely, helpful and no request was too much for them My friend and I went for quick lunch, I had carvery which was lovely, good meats selection and good portion of meat and my friend went for rump steak which was cooked to perfection. Would like to say thank you all the team for making our time here comfortable and enjoyable

I traveled to Gosport for work and next to my hotel was the Sailmaker, I had a large carvery which came with 2 yorkies and the meats were lovely and a wide selection of veg.. it was lovely and the Heineken in the frozen glass was a lovely touch, will definitely be back

Enjoyed a very nice evening with family Great food!! Great service... Well done to the team at sailmaker, will definitely be back x

Always nice food and friendly staff

Great service from ola and Georgia

Quick service. Understanding about dietary requirements. Nice atmosphere

We have been going to sailmaker over a year once a month for steak meal deal on a Thursday and for the first time my husband was dissatisfied with the steak asked for it to be cooked a little longer. When returned it was a different steak but very fatty. We took the steak home with us. Expensive meal for our dog Also my glass was dirty

lovely food, staff and enjoyable venue for the kids to have fun. There was even a hired bouncy castle there at the time for no extra charge.

Great service and lovely staff wanting to help 👍

Megan served us and was amazing and very polite and the chef was amazing too. Food was nice too

I bring four of my best friends (ex work colleagues) to the sailmaker about 8 times a year also go with my partner too . The meals have been absolutely delicious the service is done with a smile and at times like last night very busy we all look forward to meeting up for dinner and few drinks all staff are happy and do a great service couldn’t not rate this pub higher enough

Sj Brooke Sophie and Georgia what a lovely friendly team. Food was also lovely.

Excellent, highly recommended. Great food staff amazing really enjoyed ourselves visit.

Well, on the website I can’t even view the menu let alone book a table. Going elsewhere

Food cold, had to be sent back Rare stake came as medium, medium came as well done No was not brought out at the same time, people had finished before other meals were brought out

Friendly professional service, Jack was welcoming and explained the menu options clearly, he was also on hand to politely answer any queries we had. This along the rest of the staff helped to make our evening most enjoyable. We will definitely be back soon. 👍😀

Came to the sailmaker today. Was served by Georgia and olaa. They couldn't do enough for us . Very friendly and chatty and made us feel very welcome.

Great service on Christmas Day All of the staff have done a fantastic job.

Very helpful and kind staff, watched the young server behind the bar handle an irrate customer very well very impressed for his young age food was delicious would definitely come back again

Tasted like an old school dinner from the 90s. Quite pricy but that is ultimately modern day Britain. I ate it but I probably wouldn’t return. One thing that annoyed me is that they spread the meat out despite being an average portion across the plate and then throw a large Yorkshire pudding on top which can restrict space on the plate to add extra bits! Possibly being a little trivial, however, it is quite obvious. Why not offer the Yorkshire after or allow the customer to self serve.

Bar staff were friendly and the pub was very clean. Food was good and there was a good choice.

Excellent service clean and food quality good

Lovely food, happy staff. Good service.vwry gd value for money. Food portions perfect for any appetite .

Fantastic for accommodations for additional needs

Good food with good variety. Very careful if my children’s food allergies and friendly relaxed atmosphere.

Food is okay but everything else is great

Visited today with family, great food which was amazing value. We received outstanding service from Jess. We would definitely recommend going to the Sailmaker.

Lovely carvery roast served by polite and welcoming Georgia. Would have given 5 stars for service but had to chase up our deserts that were slow in coming out despite it not being very busy at the time. Apart from that very polite and helpful staff.

First time visiting dor a carvary. Wow the food is amazing. Staff incredibly wecoming and friendly. Look gorward to a return visit soon

Very welcoming the moment we walked in the door. Happy faces on all staff members and the service was very quick. We are here visiting family but the food was great quality and even allowed us to take some away with us in takeaway boxes. The food was very good and cooked amazingly. Would definately recommend, thank you. Our Chef was Adam.

Thank you Adam for our lovely carvery

Gorgeous carvery as ever. Even the dog had some. Adam was very friendly serving us today.

Adam was very polite and very helpful. Will recommend to others the good service
