We went along to our afternoon tea at Slug and Lettuce, Gun Wharf, Portsmouth, not knowing what to expect. We were'nt disappointed. The service was excellent from booking to the day. The food was really tasty and the venue was lovely with a tranquil atmosphere. 10/10

Lovely gift
We had an afternoon tea for two bought for us. Fantastic modern take on it, not just sandwiches and scones. Food was great (all eaten) ran out of space with the cakes, so took the brownies home :-)

Blackpool S&L
I booked x2 afternoon teas at S&L Blackpool as we were visiting for the day and had a voucher to use. I had struggled to use the vouchers previously. The staff were really good at S&L even phoned me to make sure it was correct for 4 people as I had booked 2 of the same. On arrival a really nice lady greeted us and was more than helpful and very welcoming. The sandwiches were really tasty and fresh. Great selection of everything. Even boxed the rest up for us to take home! Thank you ladies! (22/10/25 1.30pm) unsure of names xx highly recommend them.

Wonderful experience
I took a friend. We are both coeliac and we were catered for with no problems. I would have liked another pot of tea offered to us but that's trivial. We both really enjoyed the lovely surroundings. The staff were very helpful and efficient .

Gorgeous burger
I was not sure what to expect as I have never been to a Slug and Lettuce before. My husband and I were very impressed with their burgers, very yummy. The whole meal was excellent. We only paid for the drinks and there were some amazing cocktails on the menu.
