The 5th Hants Volunteer Arms, Southsea

A two room traditional corner pub, I found little of interest to this pub and it seemed lacking in any ambiance probably not helped by me being the only punter present. Just the choice of London Pride and HSB, I would likely walk past next time.

A traditional two-bar local restored to something of an historic feel, with minimal modern intrusions (if you ignore the CCTV!) but a little devoid of atmosphere. Draught beers were restricted to London Pride and HSB, but former tried and in good condition (Cask Marque listing). Advertising for new managers at time of visit, so perhaps it might improve.
