Friday lates 👉 tomorrow.

We’re properly into cosy-season territory now, so this week’s specials are leaning accordingly…

🌿Crispy pork belly�cider glaze, mustard crème fraîche & pickled apple

🌿 pan-fried gnocchi�roast squash, sage butter, Parmesan & hazelnuts

🌿 Dark chocolate tart�crème fraîche & sea salt

Basically: exactly the sort of food that I’d like to eat with a bottle of red on a Friday evening (and will be, because you know chefs gotta taste - Amiright? 😂).

And because the end of the working week still deserves marking properly…

£5 espresso martinis from 4–6pm 🍸

Come for an espresso martini.
Stay for small plates.

W**e Wednesday 🍷.

Join us for lunch tomorrow where we’ll be tasting our w**e of the week.

We’ve just added a few new bottles to our small but mighty w**e list, and each Wednesday we’ll be opening one of them and pouring a few glasses on us when you order from the lunch menu.

This week: our new Orange w**e from Emiliana in Chile. Full of apricot and stone fruit flavours, this is brilliant if you fancy trying something a bit different.

Shout out to Camber W**es for keeping us stocked and introducing us to some beauties as we enter our new w**e era.

📣 PSA - our current menu is coming to the end. We’ve written and tested our new dishes and we’ll be launching our Autumn menu towards the end of NEXT week. So last chance to grab your favourites before we get all cosy season on you 💚💚

Join us for an intimate, guided coffee cupping exploring the incredible coffee from Ethiopia.

Throughout the evening, we’ll taste a selection of Ethiopian coffees processed in a variety of ways.

By tasting them side by side, we’ll explore how different processing methods can influence the character of a coffee, from sweetness and acidity to fruit character, body and fermentation.

We will guide you through the tasting, explaining what happens to a coffee from cherry to bean and how each stage of processing can influence what we experience in the cup.

This is a relaxed, hands-on evening designed for anyone who enjoys coffee and wants to understand more about what makes each cup taste the way it does - no previous coffee knowledge or cupping experience is needed.

Event Details:
• Date: 14th October
• Time: 6:00pm
• Tickets: £5 per person
• Location: Southsea Coffee.

Spaces are limited, so book early to secure your place. See link below 👇

New week new need for coffee.

Have you tried our new guest espresso yet? From Edison Argote - an amazing Colombian producer - it’s a coconut co-ferment. VERY different from our house espresso it’s like dessert in a cup.

Coconutty, sweet and a delicious example of what coffee producers are experimenting with at source. Try in a flat white if you want something unusual 👌.

So. This Friday.

We’re bringing back £5 espresso martinis from 4–6pm because Lou and I rather like the idea of them marking the end of the working week.

Laptop shut. Out of office on. Espresso martini.
And then… stay for dinner (obvs).

This week I’m going to be cooking up the following Friday specials:

Sticky chicken
’nduja butter, charred peppers & garlic yoghurt

Crispy gnocchi
mushrooms, sage butter & Parmesan

Red w**e plums
mascarpone cream & amaretti

All alongside our usual larger small plates menu, w**es from our friends at Camber W**es, spritz and cocktails.

New coffees on the bar and retail drop from Scenery.

Guest espresso:

Edison Argote coconut Co-ferment - Ethiopia.
Roasted by Campbell and Syme this coffee is co-fermented with coconut. It has an ultra-creamy texture, white chocolate and vanilla sweetness and a rich coconut finish. We had this last year and absolutely adored it so are super excited to see it again this year.

Pour-overs.

Karumandi AA #023 👉 a traditional washed Kenyan coffee, produced by 1,600 smallholder farmers who are part of the Baragwi Cooperative Society in Kirinyaga, Kenya, and roasted by Scenery.

Karumandi has a zesty profile, flavour notes of rhubarb, whitecurrants and gooseberries, and is a vibrant, tangy and delicate coffee full of fruity sweetness.

El Diablo FW from Nicaragua 👉 another traditional washed coffee, produced by 5 smallholder farmers near the forests of Jinnotega, El Diablo features 5 different varieties: Catuaí, Caturra, Castillo, Pacas and Parainema.

El Diablo has a confectionery profile, flavour notes of toasted pistachio, milk chocolate and strewed apple; a creamy, dessert-like but bright coffee full of pastry sweetness.

Plus a wider range of beans for home on the counter and all beans available on our website for click and collect or home delivery ☕️☕️.
