Hi Alison, thank you for this brilliant five-star review! I shall pass your kind words to our team who will be very pleased to hear of them. Thank you, Kind regards, Stewart Parsons Area Manager Coffee Cup
We've visited this coffee shop many times, it offers a nice selection of food and cakes, drinks. Has a nice seating area and we've always found the staff to be very friendly. It's very reasonable too. Good place to stop for a drink or bite if you're walking between GWQ and Southsea.

Hi Grahame, we are fortunate enough to be on a very popular walking strip and I cannot think of a better walking companion than your favourite hot drink and snack from us at Coffee Cup Clarence Pier! Kind regards, Stewart Parsons Regional Manager Coffee Cup
Great coffee, with friendly service. The only place I've been since emerging from shielding that checked I'd used the NHS QR code on door. Wonderful array of cakes, pastries and savouries, but couldn't sample as was on my way to dentist. Young staff very attentive to necessary cleaning regime, for which they should be commended. Full range of vegan milks too (extra charge though).

We hope to see you in again soon. Kind regards, Stewart Parsons Regional Manager Coffee Cup
Gem of a find, and a must visit in Southsea, I can’t understand all the negative comments , 30 years in retail, the displays were awesomely presented. The cakes 🍰 looked lovely, Hayley was very welcoming and very friendly, an assert too the company, the Coffee Cup was nearly full and had a great buzzing atmosphere. Thank you for a nice visit.

As a regular visitor to the pier it was to my surprise to have not yet visited this coffee shop! My partner and I where in a rush to get home but not without some caffeine to keep us awake, so sheepishly we walked in. To our dismay we saw them cashing up thinking we wouldn't be able to get one but after asking the friendly and lovely two female staff members, they encouragingly said that they could make us a drink! Crisis averted. A white americano cost £2.75 and its overall taste was definitely worth the money. So thankyou Coffee Cup and the lovely staff members for making our day and our evening home a wonderfully smooth, relaxing trip. You will be seeing us again !Owner response
Hello Hope, it's great to read that our staff went above and beyond helping you with your caffeine fix at the end of the day. We have a lot of wonderful treats on our menu for you to sample next time you are visiting Southsea seafront. Kind regards, Stewart Parsons Regional Manager Coffee Cup
