After being in a very bouncy marina due to high winds and heavy rain we decided we needed Sunday dinner and have to say was a very nice meal and a great choice of beers and ciders. Everybody in the pub seemed to be enjoying there meals the pie looked very nice as well. There was also life music.

Lovely quaint old building. Menu is simple but a good variety of food. Service was quick and meals cooked to perfection and good sizes portions. Lovely atmosphere with live band. Music wasn't overpowering and it was still possible to have a conversation! Would definitely visit again.

The Platform is a friendly pub drenched in history. They have regular live music and the food and service is world class. The cider festival is always a winner.

We visited on a Friday evening. There was a good atmosphere, good range of beers and the food was also good. An added bonus, which we hadn't expected, was an excellent live band playing. Would definitely return.

We ordered the sharing fish platter. The portion equated to a small starter for one. When we left we bought mussels and crusty bread from Lidls and cooked them at home. The latter was better. The former was a complete waste of time and money

This was our first visit ti the Platform, we went with our daughter who lives in Southampton, and the whole vibe of the place is just awesome. The food was excellent, the band were outstanding and the place was jumping......brilliant night. We live in Spain, but the next time we visit said daughter....we will be back, thank you for a memorable night out. xx

Lovely food. Quirky interior. Good options for vegetarians and vegans, and helpful changing meals to suit. We have visited her twice now. Sadly the first time, the pub was extremely crowded with people watching a local football match - very noisy. But food was still great.
