Pub & Restauant.

The property was extensively refurbished in 2022 and is situated in the heart of this popular sailing village on the seafront, with panoramic views of the Solent and frequent yacht racing with the popular Seaview Mermaids. There is a Bar/Restaurant downstairs and a restaurant area upstairs (booking required) serving local seafood in season. In fine weather the patio area can be used, with orders via a convenient serving hatch. A third guest ale available in the summer.

Closes winter Sunday evenings and Mondays. Closing times variable on if there is an event.
