The Best Restaurants in Alverstoke, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Friendly staff, went out of their way. Absolutely delicious food! Highly recommend, nice to have somewhere posh to go in Gosport. Also good kids menu

We visited Lizz restaurant on Saturday evening for the first time since it opened, we have always seen how busy it is when we drive past and I started to see my friends had all visited and every one of them have said it was brilliant. It really is decorated beautifully and to a high standard also, I have visited this place previously for many years and think this restaurant is by far the best move yet. We were greeted but lovely staff and every member from there on was very helpful, friendly and had great service skills. Drinks were served quickly and we didn’t wait long at all before food was served to our table. Everyone on my table was happy with their food as it all tasted fresh, great flavours and all served hot. We were extremely happy with the whole experience and will definitely be back. We all left feeling full and content with a lovely meal out. Advice to book as it was busy but you wouldn’t known as we didn’t wait long at all and the service was no different I think to if we were there and it was empty!

This is truly one of the finest restaurants in the area. Despite being open for just three months, the level of service and attentiveness is absolutely exceptional. A special thanks to Burak for making the experience even more memorable. With 144 five-star reviews already, it’s clear this place speaks for itself — but here’s another one to add to the list. Thank you to the entire team for an outstanding dining experience!

Lizz is simply special, the food and service impeccable. We arrived and the restaurant was extremely busy but within 10 minutes we had drinks and munchies on the table. We went for two starters one of which we sent back but the problem rectified in minutes in a very professional manner.The garlic mushrooms were extremely nice and very hot which was fantastic.My wife went for a vegetarian dish which she absolutely loved. I decided on chicken skewers which were done to perfection and the seasoning of the chicken superb. We absolutely loved it. The staff were very polite and attentive even tho it was extremely busy. We loved the experience but some friendly advice book your table in advance. Thank you for such a pleasant evening and beautiful food and it doesn’t break the bank it’s extremely well pitched price wise. The toilets were extremely nice and a lovely bar area to chill. See you again soon Darren/Dawn

Next to the War Memorial hospital. Nice location worth following the signs to find the entrance. Look on the special board for some good meals. I'd be back. Visited after Hospital appointment.

Great personal service, varied menu, freshly cooked, , will be back when we are allowed. Recommend everyone supports it.

The home cooked food was lovely we had pork chops with honey and mustard sauce New potatoes and carrots and runner beans the chops were surprisingly large the food was hot and all really nice. We enjoyed it so much we stayed and ordered deserts as well when we let our dinners go down will definitely be going again.

What a fantastic find this place is. Everything is top notch and very reasonably priced. On the quieter(rare) times Martin is a very entertaining chat too.

Came here whilst someone was in the hospital waiting to be seen. As I waited for my breakfast, the kitchen staff are happily singing away. The wait wasn't long for my food and everything was freshly cooked and very delicious. The staff are wonderful and very welcoming. Please pay them a visit, the food and service is perfect.

Today I ordered two roast lamb sunday lunches and they were lovely, we had the regular size and the portion was perfect. Lots of fresh veg and meat. 😋 Thank you Claire's we will be using you again.

Great little cafe, large seating area upstairs, super friendly staff, and a good selection of snacks, food and cakes and drinks. The atmosphere is also very relaxed and friendly 😊

Popped in by chance,and what a great find!!Great little cafe.Lovely food and staff.Will definitely be going again.

Very nice little cafe serving a small range of plated and take away food. We had some bakery items and ate in. Food was great and my daughter enjoyed her baby chino hot chocolate. Friendly and welcoming staff and atmosphere with gentle music for ambience.

We are regulars , they do the BEST breakfasts!, it's a really lovely atmosphere and the staff are always very friendly, there are no long waiting times for the food to be served , it's just lovely I really recommend going if you are near by.

Great venue for live music. Staff very friendly and helpful. I will definitely return.

Visited here Monday 21st October day before Mum's Funeral at Ann's Hill Chapel Oh, and the record player and vinyl records were great. My Brother said I was a great Dj 👍😁

The best independent spot in Gosport for breakfast and lunch early in the day. Giving way to beer and music in the evening (often live at the weekends). Great location, welcoming locals and warm reliable service. A*

Great venue for a meal or just a drink. Excellent menu and well priced for its location. Very friendly and welcoming staff and very nice decor, with art available to buy. Views over towards HMS.Victory, the Spinnaker Tower and the nearby Marina. You can also view the passing ferries. Highly recommended for couples, groups and singles...Not certain about families? Well worth a visit, but be aware it's slightly off the beaten track and car parking (unless displaying a disabled persons Blue Badge) appears to be permit holders only.

Went to celebrate a birthday & we started with the Pate, omg, that was to die for, the best Pate dish I have ever eaten. 2 had the chefs special Shepherds Pie which was absolutely outstanding & one had the tagliatelle which was beautiful. With drinks as well, it worked out about £,32 a head which is very reasonable. Staff are very friendly & helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience which was recommended to us. I am reiterating this .

We had our Wedding Reception at Arty’s after getting married at the local Registry Office. We arrived with a small group of our closest family and friends and were welcomed by Amy on arrival. Amy helped us through the entire process and was a dream to deal with. We hired out the function room and it had all been decorated in our colour scheme and set up perfectly! The food was fantastic and atmosphere was great too! Thank you so much Amy & the team!

Awesome food, fast and friendly service, a good range of drinks, a cool location (we could see HMS Price of Wales and the Spinnaker Tower from just outside) and reasonable prices. What on earth else could you want? The salads and pizzas were especially good (and large).

We went here for a Sunday lunch as part of my wife’s birthday celebrations. Really accommodating when making the booking for 8 people. My mother-in-law got in the few minutes early as we had a birthday cake to bring out and they were more than happy to stash it out the back until needed. Amazing Service. We all had 3 courses. All was brought out in a timely manner. Food was freshly cooked and piping hot. Really polite and friendly service throughout. Quite a few of us went for the Sunday Roast - great portion sizes. The Roast Potatoes were the best we’ve had on a long time! Had two kids with us aged 11 and 8 - and both loved their kids meals. Puddings were no exception. The staff brought the cake out with the candles lit, singing happy birthday. Also offered a knife and napkins etc in case we wanted to cut it up for members of our party to take home. Just an amazing experience from start to finish - very grateful to the staff for making it such a memorable birthday meal. Won’t hesitate to return and recommended to others. Thank you to all the brilliant team there.

A traditional English Tavern for a weary traveller needing the comfort of home. This Tavern has a warm welcoming feel, like a hug from your Grandmar. The Tavern is clean, the food and drink are affordable, and the staff are genuinely nice. If you want a craft beer and a funky hipster vibe, this is not for you, and that's okay, Portsmouth will accommodate you.

I was recommended TCT by many local people as having the best Sunday roast in town. I can confirm that they do indeed have a fantastic menu on Sundays, the staff are very friendly, and it was a great experience. It was my Mum's birthday, and they put up a banner and some balloons for her. I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough.

Well what a gem of a pub...food was amazing. I mean it amazing. The service was more than five star. I thought my mum's liver and bacon mash was fab...sorry mum you are in 2nd place xx coming back tomorrow to try the steak and ale pie

Great service in a welcoming environment. Our food was good and tasty and the dogs meals were enjoyed as they finished off the bowl contents. If there is a dog poo bin in the garden, I didn't see it, so would suggest having one around the corner by the gate as dogs are very welcome and may need to perform!

Stopped here for a spot of lunch. Excellent professional friendly polite staff. Fantastic pub as pubs should be. Food was very tasty & wholesome. Highly recommend this pub 👌

Visited for a Sunday lunch after seeing good reviews. What a great place. Delicious food, and excellent friendly service. We all had the beef. Well cooked, tender, lovely vegetables and roasties. And a large Yorkshire pudding. Good sized meal and the young staff were lovely. We also thought the pub dog was lovely 😊

Went here yesterday for lunch whilst working round the corner. Food was exactly how it should be; fish already cooked and in the oven to reduce the grease, lovely batter, banging chips, and great curry sauce. Wish this was closer to home as it puts any chippy near me to shame. Will definitely have another lunch from here before my work nearby is finished.

Great food at reasonable prices. Good service by pleasant local people. Can’t recommend enough.

Got recommended to go here from a friend who raves about this place, so naturally I gave it a go. The wait was short due to myself ordering a small cod compared to large haddock that the other customers seemed to order. My fish and chips got prepared and then left for a minute or two above the fryer whilst my saveloy was being cooked. Unfortunately the saveloy was not cooked, it was cold in the middle and it simply wasn’t cooked. The fish was flaky and chips were nice however I feel they could have been a bit more generous with the chips. The whole meal came to £12.60 and yet I find myself still quite hungry. To promote fairness I get cod, chips, saveloy and a curry sauce from every fish and chip shop I visit. This wasn’t the best I’ve had but certainly not the worst. Worth a visit I think, but probably won’t be going again.

We struck gold here. Just happened to be caught in the mood for fish and chips whilst parked at Stokes bay. So we searched for nearby outlets. This one did indeed not disappoint. The staff are so helpful. Even managed to park right outside. I had the best ever fish cakes I’ve ever eaten . Thanks to everyone involved.

Service and atmosphere were fantastic - faultless. However, the starter and mains were VERY small. Closer to what I'd expect from a tasting menu. My husband's lamb could have done with a little more scorching on the outside and needed more seasoning and something else on the plate! A shame as we really couldn't fault the service and setting. The food largely just needs to be more generous! Puddings were great!

Amazing little restaurant, perfect on a sunny day! The service was friendly and attentive and the cocktails to die for. Fruits de mer is so worth the money too! Could not recommend this more for special occasions or a treat!

We went on a Saturday evening to celebrate our wedding anniversary. All the staff were incredibly polite and welcoming. The food was superb, very well presented and tasted amazing. We enjoyed a few cocktails as-well which also were great. Salted caramel martini 🍸 was our favourite. Will certainly be going back again for another meal.

Had a wonderful afternoon of Jazz, cocktails & lunch. The venue is lovely with stunning views, food was delicious as were the cocktails and the service is great.
