A fantastic local coffee company that used only locally sourced products (except the coffee of course but its of very high quality). Run by a lovely couple into eco-friendly, upcycling and the arts.

A gorgeous mix of tea rooms with yummy cakes and a restaurant. Food quality is excellent with good sized portions. The Parade Tea Rooms are brand new with lovely decor and friendly, helpful staff. Right outside the apartment on the common, so perfect for breakfast, brunch or afternoon tea. Highly recommended.

Another little gem, right on the beach front close to South Parade Pier, overlooking the sea. This venue is very popular with a good menu - their home made burgers are excellent! There is always a fresh fish dish too.

A lovely little gallery called Atelier featuring artist Pete Codling, whose art practice is a fascinating development of public art through to traditional drawing and painting in a contemporary context. Pop into to see Pete if you love art for a chat and to hear what he is working on - a great guy!

Visit Palmerston Road - its a little precinct but has all the key high street shops like Superdrug and banks, but comes to life with markets such as the French Food and Love Southsea on a Saturday, and has a library and department store (Knight & Lee which is part of John Lewis). Also near to Marmion Road with little independent shops such as Coco (chocolatier), Barbara Tipple (Jewelers) and Waitrose.
