Set high above the city in a commanding position with unrivalled views across Portsmouth, the Solent and the South Downs, the Churchillian was built in 1964 for Salisbury's former Gibbs Mew brewery. The pub majors on food sales, though enjoys plenty of trade from passing drinkers, especially in summer months when people congregate outside on the south-facing terrace to take in the splendid panorama that rivals the view from any pub garden in the whole of the UK. The bar has photographs commemoratint he Royal Navy, historic Portsmouth and the great man himself.
