Reviews Rapscallions

Amazing place, came this Saturday and the staff was amazing and cocktails was out of this world. The concept was incredible, it’s great to see an experience bar like this outside of Portsmouth.

Great music, millennial demographic and very tasty cocktails. Atmosphere is on point and perfect for group events if you’re celebrating something and you want it to be themed. People came here with outfits on and pirates of the Caribbean theme tune comes on for the dead man’s chest sharer drinks 🍹 which is fantastic

Rapscallions is probably my favourite bar in Portsmouth, it is a pirate themed rum bar and it is the best place to start or finish your night!! They do a bottomless brunch which is all you can eat pizza & rum which is very good value. The atmosphere in here always amazing if I ever go out I try to convince other to end up at Raps and if I can't I just go anyway, whether there is 1 of you or 15 of you you experience doesn't change. Music in here is great as well which what really helps the atmosphere. The food is amazing and portions sizes are great value for money, the Wings feel like they are a whole leg and the nachos feel like they are never ending. They do food later on weekends so even when you feel you are finishing your night there is still food available. You can work your way through the entire cocktail menu because each one is served in a different glass and each one you get a different experience with. The staff here really are showmen when it comes to presenting the cocktails. I couldn't even tell you whaty favourite cocktail is because everyone is a different experience. There is a about 4 or 5 different tikis, an exploding barrel, a parrot, then you get to the sharing cocktails... There is a massive treasure chest you drink out of a fishbowl that is being engulfed by a Kracken and then there is also a massive shark head you drink out of as well and when they bring them out they really make a spectacle and show of it coming out so everyone in the bar is aware you're drinking a sharer. It was great fun when we got other tables drinking sharers as well because drink after drink after drink to each table was a different show, you only need one and everyone jumps on the sharer bandwagon. Grant is an amazing host and always seems like he is running around and not stopping. We also came here for my brothers birthday for a bottomless brunch, we got him a birthday shot but grant got the whole bar up singing a sea Shanty the atmosphere is unbeatable. Top Food Top Staff Top Music (you can also request songs) Top Atmosphere I always try to get people here but they may not come because they don't understand it, once you come you understand and then everyone wants to come back, I Can not wait to come here again and again!

I have been here a few times and love the theme. Cocktails are amazing!!! Love the theatre with the dry ice. Very good roast, generous portions. Staff friendly - excellent customer service from the lady with dark hair (sorry I didn't catch your name). Hope to visit again to try more!

Best rum selection in Portsmouth and Isle of wight. staff are knowledgeable about the stock they carry and really engage with the customers. The large cocktails are really an experience with a sense of ceremony when they are delivered. The food is so much better than you would think for a place like this. Booking is advised as it can get very busy.
