Ok I am going to hold back on my views of Pompey today, I am in a good mood so I will let you know what pub we will be going to before they Bolton the first one of the season.
Tomorrows pub will be The Lawrence Arms,Lawrence Road, Southsea
The Lawrence Arms has traded from this street corner location since Victorian times. Originally part of the Brickwoods Brewery, the pub ended up as part of Whitbread's massive estate when that company purchased the former. The pub received a major refurbishment in 1998, which sadly saw the loss of its seperate lounge bar.
However, it remains a pleasant community local, offering a comfortable bar room with a pool table and dartboard. The south-facing beer garden is a welcome addition in warmer weather and two well-kept real ales are served - thesegenrally beign Fullers (Gales) HSB and Brains SA (the only regular outlet for the latter beer in Portsmouth). The pub enjoys a good local following, as well as catering for passing trade. The pub is likely to be very busy when Portsmouth FC are playing home matches at Fratton Park.
