Great Drinks. Great Company. Great Atmosphere.
Southsea's Hidden Cocktail Bar
Whether you're joining us for cocktails with friends, relaxing by the fire, attending an event or discovering your new favourite local spot, Becketts offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere seven days a week. Check out The Play Room and shoot some pool, play darts or even gather some friends for an evening of poker.
Located in the heart of Southsea, our bar combines boutique surroundings, expertly crafted drinks and friendly staff all designed to bring people together.
More Than Just A Drink
At Becketts, we believe great hospitality is about more than what's in your glass.
It's about cosy corners, conversations that last longer than planned, discovering new events and creating memorable moments with friends old and new.
Whether you're joining us for a quick after-work drink or settling in for the evening, our bar offers the perfect setting to relax and unwind. For those with a more competitive mindset, head upstairs to The Play Room. Think scaled-down Country Mansion Billiards Room (without the billiards)!
Carefully Crafted Cocktails
