British Beer Company

Love the ambiance, reminds you of pubs in the 1800's. Excellent beer selection that deserves 5 stars, haven't tried the food sop can't comment on that. Love the hilarious quotes on the ceilings.

I enjoyed my meal here. The menu is HUGE so there is something for everyone. Some of the food seems to be a bit heavy, but overall the flavor is generally there. Although I got a veggie burger and had to add a lot of hot sauce to it since it was a little bland. BUT MY MASHED POTATOES WERE DELICIOUS! The service was also pretty attentive, and despite it being new, they seem to run a pretty tight ship. Also thought the beer selection was pretty decent! I'd definitely go again if I lived in the area.

First time here.  Local folks who frequent Portsmouth establishments.  Rainy , Monday night so Portsmouth and the BBC were kind of quiet, but inside was loud even though it wasn't super busy.  Really hard to talk to one another without shouting. Good beer selection, some different brews to try.  Hostess was OK, not overly friendly.  Waitress was friendly. The other person in our party had been before and knew they offered beer samples, so we sampled a few and then made our selection.  Two of us ordered sandwiches off the lunch specials menu, which we were told were available even though it was dinner time.  Came with fries, but the waitress asked if we wanted sweet potato fries, onion rings or something else instead of the fries and one of us opted for sweet potato and I got onion rings. To my surprise there was a $3.99 charge on the final bill, labeled onion rings.  I asked and she explained that that was a substitution with some explanation that really didn't make a whole lot of sense to us.  She offered to try and take it off, I said no, but told her that she didn't make it clear that we would be charged for substituting the fries.  Onion rings by the way were lousy, and not many on the plate, disappointed.  Our sandwiches were good, but nothing great, not worth running right back. I'd try again and compare but as a local will continue to go to the Portsmouth Brewery for the best locally produced beer and better atmosphere.
