It is a perfect venue for any kind of small and intimate celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries, christenings etc.

Down pavement steps and past a historic natural water well, Crofts is set in stunning Wine Cellars situated under Lemon Sole in Old Portsmouth. Crofts is scattered with timely reminders of why it was named. Annie Croft brought Music Hall into Theatres and her sons Peter and David acted, directed and wrote such classics as Dad’s Army, It Ain’t Half Hot Mum, Allo, Allo, Hi de Hi and Are You Being Served. Original stone floors and brickwork are still in place and a cooking range, built at the same time as the one on the Mary Rose, takes pride of place. It is an ideal venue so people could pop in for a drink alone or with friends, would like dinner for two or a lively celebration, so we have added some subtle improvements to make sure it fits the bill.

As with Lemon Sole upstairs, if you choose to eat with us you can select from either the extensive fish counter or impressive menu available, accompanied by a medley of wine choice. So whether you wine or wine and dine, either way we would be delighted if you came to visit.

Yours truly, King of Sole
