The Tenth Hole - Portsmouth

Always love this place for a little treat. Caramel cappuccino was very nice. Berry cheesecake remains a firm favourite! Simply the best. Smarties cookie was very nice, Lemon meringue was nice but I found e few shards of hard sugar lumps in the middle.

We live close by and used to visit often.
Unfortunately the price has increased but the service/quality has declined.
All the people who review, honestly either have very low standards or have not visited a nice place in Southsea.

We have ordered a bap that was fantastically sold on the menu for over £10+ as something fancy but it was very disappointing, and the fact that it was presented awfully chucked on to a large plate with half the plate being empty just looked sad.
Pancakes & bacon again 0 presentation.
I am not expecting Michelin star dining here but when you pay above average for a below average breakfast it’s really disappointing.

We have ordered a flat white and a latte as well, they both came out exactly the same and were quite poor, lady was lovely but had no idea how to make a coffee.
Staff was so so in general.

Would not recommend but then again there isn’t much around.

Been here twice within a couple of weeks cos the first visit was so good. We had the ultimate toastie (mac and cheese toastie) and the loaded fries- both amazing! Great selection of cakes. The brownie cheesecake was delicious and the carrot cake was the best we’ve had in ages. Nice atmosphere, dog friendly (under cover outside), polite staff. Oh and free parking for 3 hours outside was a bonus!

Have visited a number of times now, usually as a Sunday morning treat or pre-shopping relax before the crush. Parking is usually OK in a roadside space alongside the fence. Pick a table, read the menu and order at the counter. Food is served at the table where the utensiles are found in a small garden bucket. There is a choice of seating, either in or out under cover. The decor reminds me of a seaside hut with the various adornments. Food is always hot and tastey whatever the selection. The cakes are something else.

Polite staff, lots of nice seating inside and out.
Delicious lunch and cakes looks spectacular.

My wife found this place when we popped down to Eastney beach. Little wait for a table but well worth it. Lovely food and a real gem. Service was swift and we really enjoyed our lunch.

I have given 5 stars because it's always been good tasty food. However, I do see it as a treat as I found it more on the pricey side. As it's so welcoming and friendly, you can see why it's so popular. The service was a bit slow and the deserts came out first waiting 10 minutes until the lunch items came which was a shame. The highlights were the Christmas Mac n cheese, the chilli jam ultimate toastie (where do you get that jam it's incredible) and the caramel Apple pie warmed up with custard! The brownie cheesecake, the main cheesecake part dominated and the brownie chocolate taste doesn't follow through enough for our liking. We will return in 2025! I wish the tenth hole could be located in different parts of the UK so we could just pop in whenever we wanted. Lucky for those that live nearby!

We visit The Tenth Hole regularly for breakfast and it’s always fantastic. Sometimes if you don’t get there early enough you might have to queue outside and wait for a table but it doesn’t take that long. You order at the counter rather than table service and sometimes there can be a bit of a queue to order too. But the food is great, especially if you have a breakfast sandwich - the bread is so thick cut and soft. I usually have that or pancakes with bacon, my partner has the full breakfast. We more often than not end up buying cake to take away and have later with a cuppa too, the variety and quality of their cakes is brilliant 🍰☕️
