About This Kitchen

Gunwharf Quays is Portsmouth's flagship waterfront development, anchored by the Spinnaker Tower and a designer outlet centre that draws over six million visitors annually. The surrounding streets in PO1 house a mix of premium apartments and naval heritage attractions, creating a dual-income stream of resident delivery orders and tourist dine-in trade.

Substantial kitchen in a pub that overlooks Portsmouth Harbour and the Historic Dockyard. The venue benefits from the six million annual visitors to Gunwharf Quays — even on a quiet Tuesday in January, there are people walking past this pub. Summer weekends are extraordinary.

The kitchen is one of the better-equipped spaces we've listed in Portsmouth. The combi oven alone would cost £8,000 to replace, and the full extraction canopy with ansul fire suppression was installed in 2024. The landlord estimates the previous operator ran a seafood and grill concept and turned over around £9,500 per month in food sales. The harbour-view terrace adds 20 covers from April through September and is a genuine draw. The view takes in the Spinnaker Tower, HMS Warrior, and the Isle of Wight ferry — it's one of the best pub terraces in Hampshire. All utilities are bundled into the fixed rent. The landlord's reasoning is simple: Gunwharf commands a premium, and they want a food partner who focuses on execution rather than penny-counting on gas bills. Sunday roasts and a strong brunch menu would be the obvious starting points here.
