What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Brewhouse & Kitchen - Southbourne is lauded for its extensive craft beer selection and lively atmosphere, with many enjoying dishes like the Beer Can Chicken and burgers. However, consistency in food quality, particularly with Sunday roasts and service during busy periods, has been a point of criticism for some diners.
"Large pub with brewery. Huge selection tion of beers both own brewed and imported. Called in on a Friday afternoon and the place wasn't too busy. Nice brewery themed decor, clean and tidy plus a reasonable sized beer garden out back. Enjoyed a few good beers and the food was great too. We had the Steak & Ale pie and the Beer Can Chicken, both delicious. The waitress was friendly and the wait was short. It was starting to get busier by the time we left. Happy to return soon."

"I really wanted it to be good as the beer, location and decor is great but the food really let them down.
Sunday roast option was quite frankly inedible.
The three meat option - presentation was great - however the chicken and the pork were so dry the knife refused to cut it,
The pork dinner - well if you like 70% chewy fat this is for you!
On a more positive, the chicken burger, cheese burger and mac and cheese were great…..
So the moral of the story is don’t expect a nice Sunday roast on a Sunday!"
Matt McGrath
"We stayed here overnight in one of the apartments and we couldn’t believe how spacious it was!
Everything you need for a short stay and the apartment was clean and tidy.
The pub also does an excellent selection of drinks and the garden is a great sun trap. We didn’t try the food but I’m sure it was as good as it looks
Overall a fabulous stay and we would definitely return!"
