Pub in Southampton

“Such a good bottomless brunch! The food and drinks were amazing, and the atmosphere was perfect. Rebecca and Alexandra made the whole experience even better — they were so friendly, attentive, and really made us feel welcome. Definitely recommend and will be coming back soon!”

“Cossy with really friendly staff and atmosphere. Great range of ciders. We had a large group of us and they could not have been more engaging and helpful.”

“Always busy, great atmosphere. 2 for £13 cocktails all day every day. Staff are polite, crazy busy and really friendly. Always have a good time when we visit.”

“I absolutely love it here. Been 3 times already. Vegan options are incredible. Food is really tasty. Really great location too as theres loads of parking right next door. Staff are really friendly. Great great pub.”

“Maciej was absolutely amazing. Not only does he serve his customers with the utmost level of professionalism, he even went a step further to make sure that we were all taken care of. He made sure i had enough water to help with my hangover...now tell me, which bartender goes that extra mile. Medbar...this amazing young man deserves a raise.”

“Went to see wicked for good today at around 1:45pm with my mum who is disabled and uses walking sticks a lovely member of staff called Alex who was around 6ft tall and had brown hair was very kind and saw us struggling carrying our popcorn and our drinks so Alex kindly jumped to lend us a helping hand and carried our drinks for us walked at my mums pace offered to scan our tickets for us and walked us to our seats and put our drinks in our cupholders for us. Alex is an absolute credit to your cinema such a wonderful kind man Also loved the recliner seats super comfy and spacious”

“Amazing pub with so much character and quirky vibes. The live music is amazing too. They support local and up and coming bands so its a great place to hear amazing music and have a pint of local brew.”

“There are words to the outstanding service and the totally amazing food today. We were greeted by the manager, who was so friendly and supported a very happy team. Tiah gave great service and was so helpful, with Nick on the grill doing amazing food. They are a great asset to Miller and Carter, please recognise them in this reviews”

“Harvey and jack are the best doormen! so kind and really care about the customers! Honestly the best night out i’ve had in a while”

“Sanchez is an amazing bar tender! Attentive, friendly, quick and most importantly, personable. Really enjoyed my evening at Orange rooms, greta vibes, great staff!”

“Lovely food and atmosphere. The newly refurbished restaurant and additional seating area is a big improvement. Our server was Phoebe she was vey efficient and great service. As ever highly recommend”

“We stayed for one night prior to our cruise and we will definitely return. We have stayed in a few Southampton hotels but this is definitely our new place to stay. Beautifully decorated rooms with all the amenities you could need for your stay. Lovely selection of tea and coffee and separate coffee machine in the room. There are a lot of stairs but if you have a high floor this is not a problem with staff to assist you with your suitcases. We had a wonderful dinner from the evening menu with delicious wine. The breakfast was amazing in the morning, you will be stuffed and set for the day. All the staff we encountered were great. Stay here you will you will love it. My husband said it was the most comfortable bed he's ever slept in.”

“Fantastic food and great service. Had an early dinner before a gig...great choice of creative dishes...both veggie and non veggie. Food was all superb and quick and friendly service. Central location. Will definitely be back.”

“Great venue for event The Long Good Friday. Saw a brilliant band called The Hornets”

“The food is excellent, particularly for the vegetarians in our group. With the added bonus of it being Collabfest when we were there, so there were some great new beers to try. Coupled with the friendly staff and the venue being suitable for kids, we spent a fair bit more time here than we anticipated.”

“The drinks are awesome! Honestly one of the best bars in Southampton. The music is great as well as the service :) I would go again! The 2-4-1 deal is perfect for big groups, I would recommend it!!!! Dj Matt is the best 10/10!!”

“The new menu did not disappoint!! The Truffle Maker - Super flavourful double beef smash burger with the extra treat of a truffle gravy for dipping both burger and fries- unbelievably moreish! The Seoul Destroyer - Crispy chicken delight with a little bit of bite in this burger, it paired perfectly with the tasty tater tots- definitely good for the soul! The Coca Cola Pizza - Sweet and saucy, who knew our favourite drink would go so well on a pizza a mouth watering twist on a standard BBQ base- as Revs say... An all round kick ass pizza! We also had some stunning cocktails which are on a 2-4-1 all day every!! We can't wait to come back for some bottomless brunch and a boogie! Big thanks to the team at Revs especially Charlie for the menu recommendations and concocting our delightful cocktails!”

“Relaxed pub atmosphere with good food. Meeting friends here for a drink and something to eat now and then. Recommend a visit.”

“Fantastic dancers and brilliant atmosphere which made me and my stag feel 100% comfortable with our stag doo shenanigans. Chloe is the best manager I have ever met. She deserves more than a pay rise. She deserves a stand with her name in lights. Best stag do ever”

“Slightly biased as have been coming here since the early 80s, and although we miss the old style pub, it could have ended up much worse than it is design wise. Food quality is back on an even keel and is consistently of good quality and presentation this taking away that level of apprehension you feel when you go to so many restaurants these days. Shout out to the young ladies and men of the service team who provide a very professional level of service in a pub / restaurant which I know for a fact can suffer from some challenging customers at times...”

“We booked Sunday dinner for 10 people and ordered ahead. The service was attentive, friendly and efficient. The food was hot and delicious. Two of our party were quite late due to their young baby and staff kept their dinners back until they were ready with no drama, as soon as the couple arrived the dinners appeared and were still hot and delicious. A big thumbs up for the Southampton Arms. Thank you.”

“Food was really nice.. Staff were very friendly and professional. Good choice of different foods too. A little expensive on some of the steak meals, but they are speciality meats..”

“The host greeted us by assisting with the door as we approached. Very friendly, showed us to our table and let us pick where we'd be most comfortable. Assisted with removing the chair so I could sit in my wheelchair. Got us started with water and nachos, then sent our server over to take our order. Service was great, very efficient. Server ensured we had exactly the food we wanted. Cleared empty plates in a timely manner. Overall great service”

“Great pub. Great staff. Great food and they have gone really out of the way to make you feel safe and protected under current COVID-19 restrictions.”

“Very much enjoyed a quiet pint here - 21/08. The happy hour prices were very reasonable e.g. £3.90 for a Madri. Polite, friendly service. Clean, spacious premises.”

“Just had a great Sunday lunch cooked by Chef Luke. Friendly service from Sam. Roast lamb was great and my wife had a half a roast chicken which she failed to finish - just due to the volume - and to ensure she could fit in some dessert. Cracking crumble and excellent bread and butter pudding with homemade vanilla custard. Great way to end a weekend away. Hoping to book the place for a birthday party next year...”

“Stayed here with family before our cruise. We were able to park and leave our car here for 7 days. Pryia in reception was so helpful, spoke to her a few days before arriving on the phone with a few questions I had. I then met her on check in and she made check in so easy and is a credit to hotel, the staff in the restaurant were also great, the 2 guys and young lady who were working on Saturday 25th Evening were friendly and very attentive. Simmi on sunday morning was lovely, very nice chat with her when ordering drinks . Staff here at all amazing but couldn't name everyone. Rooms were lovely except for too hot and couldn't override the system to change to cooling. Will definitely stay here again when we cruise in the future along with parking.”

“Stopped for lunch during a long walk, and just had the nicest cheeseboard ever - pickles, dates, grapes, delicious Christmassy relish, 4 nice cheeses, lots of biscuits. Staff and ambience fabulous. So beautifully done - thank you for a lovely experience!”

“The Empress of Blandings Pub & Restaurant is a fantastic spot that strikes a great balance between a classic pub and a quality restaurant. The menu offers a wide and varied selection, with something to please everyone, and the portion sizes are very generous-come hungry! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal. Don’t skip the puddings-they’re absolutely delicious and a real highlight of the experience. A great place for hearty food and a cozy vibe.”

“My regular place to drink, Love the atmosphere, staff are very polite overall a great place to be .”
