Love this place! Always come here as they have an excellent rotation of craft beers. Also have a good food menu with plenty of vegan options.
Have been coming here for a few years now. We absolutely love the food. The last couple of times we've come to visit we just haven't been able to get a table due to it being so busy and popular. This is a shame. One evening we did manage to get a table downstairs which unfortunately was right by a c
Fantastic bar with friendly atmosphere. Had wings and a burger and quite frankly, made some faces I wasn't completely comfortable making in public. Some of the best food I've ever tasted. Particularly recommend the Hanoi wings. Great selection of guest beers to wash it down with too
Wow!!!! Burgers…. amazing; loaded fries…… amazing; chicken wings…….. superb!!
Great selection of beer too.
A modern pub with craft beer in cans and a good selection on draft.The food was really nice too it was served in what I would describe as a plastic basket, but good portions and very tasty. The young people had burgers and fries and I had a Gyros, washed down by a beer. Very light and airy pub wit
Great food and lovely staff. Always very busy which is a good sign.
We ate at the merchant house today and it did not disappoint, the food was fresh and tasty the staff were very accommodating and my boyfriend enjoyed the selections of beer that he had.
We love it and always recommend it to anyone who wants good tasty food and beer!
Edit: October 2021 - same applies.
An excellent bar serving an array of beers, ales and lagers to suit all tastes.
It's a very popular bar during peak hours so be sure to arrive early if you want a table, and also a drink!
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable about their offerings. This bar also
Great place with lovely beers and a few lovely wines. Staff are very friendly and extremely dog friendly ... Everyone wanted to say hi to @cocothecocker_21. Fabulous selection of burgers which were delish and very reasonably priced. Just visited again (24/03/23) and still fabulous! Hoping @cocotheco
Love coming here on a sunny afternoon. Dog friendly, and some seating out front in the sunshine. Great vegan food options too.
Great craft beer options, some are on the expensive side, but somw reasonably priced so something for everyone.
Visited southsea on a weekend and found this absolute gem. Well priced and a great selection of craft beers. Food looked good although didn't try. Well worth a trip, staff were friendly and professional with knowledge of local craft.
Hoping to return once again and clearly benefits from nice weather
A great selection of beers, with regular 'tap takeovers' from your favourite breweries.
A selection of tasty street food. My favourite is probably the Popeye burger. A chicken burger made with thigh meat rather than breast, which is must tastier. Also much more including loaded fries, Gyros, and a
Really good place with some great beers and a nice atmosphere. The food is good but wait times a bit tough, just over an hour for burger and fries on a Monday eve.
Plenty of options if you are looking for ales, ciders, etc. Burgers are pretty good too, same as loaded fries!! A lot of space and tables and the service is spot on!
Recommended for a relaxed evening with friends.
Fantastic selection of beers and a great atmosphere
Absolutely love coming to the Merchant House, always get excited about it whenever I do. The food is so dirty but in the best way. Loaded fries, fully packed burgers, gyros and lots of veggie and vegan options too. My kind of size portions too. But don't worry, what they bring in quantity they deliv
A superb selection of beers the only downside is it’s so popular if you like a beer the chances are it will be sold out by the time you visit again.
The addition of Need street food makes the merchant house by far the best place to eat and drink in Southsea / Portsmouth if you’re after burgers, hot
Merchant House is doing plenty right: Fantastic guest beers from all over; outrageously yummy food; good music; nice venue. That said, go here for the food. Thats the major draw. So major that everybody in the local vicinity is there Fri/Sat, so get in early.
