Found the Jolly Roger by accident and very glad we did. My mum-in-law and my better half had some lunch while enjoying the view over the harbour. Fish finger sandwich, two steak sarnies and a drink each and all around the 45 quid mark, not complaining about that. Lovely place, friendly staff, looking forward to coming again with friends. Keep it up 😀

We had a wonderful time at the Jolly Roger on the evening of the 5th August. We were a party of 13 and nothing was too much trouble. Jasmine and Josie made us feel very welcome and helped us with suggestions as we were deciding what food and drink to order as well as being very patient as we discussed what to have. The food was delicious, freshly cooked and arrived hot. We asked if the children's meals could come out first and they did! The location was great, with views over Portsmouth Harbour. We will definitely be back!!

We had a gorgeous meal here last night there was a lot of us so we preordered which was made really easy by jasmine she was brilliant. The service we received from Keira and Bo was fantastic both welcoming, smiley and really helpful. The food choice was great in-fact it was difficult to choice. Everyone said how delicious their meal was and the desserts were fantastic, both very well presented. Great atmosphere, outstanding view, wonderful staff and delicious food what more can you ask for! Thanks for a great evening.

I had the 8oz sirloin, rare and a portion of garlic bread. The best food I've had in a while!
Staff are friendly and they provide great service!
The view from the outside seating area is perfect aswell, you can either view the marina or have a look at the carriers!
