Our Pub Garden

The perfect pub garden in Portsmouth

There’s something special about long, easy afternoons spent in a great pub garden. At The Old Customs House, our garden is one of the best in Portsmouth—the perfect spot to slow down, catch up and soak up the moment, whether you’re gathered with friends or enjoying a peaceful pint in the great outdoors.

Alfresco Dining

Dining outdoors just feels better—especially when the food’s worth lingering over.

At The Old Customs House, we bring the best of the season to your table. Our menus are packed with vibrant, flavourful dishes made for sunny days and warm evenings. From fresh, summery salads and seafood to elevated pub classics, it’s all served with care in our relaxed garden setting.

Whether you're enjoying a long lunch, a laid-back dinner, or a spontaneous bite with friends, this is dining outdoors, unhurried, and full of flavour.

Summer Sipping

There’s something about a drink in the garden that just hits the spot.

Our Summer Sipping selection is built for lazy afternoons, golden hours, and everything in between. Expect garden spritzes, refreshing G&Ts, crisp rosé, and cold pints served just right. We’ve also got low & no options that pack just as much flavour—ideal for those taking it easy.

Ask about our Summer Sipping menu at the bar.
