About The Platform Tavern

The Platform Tavern is a charming pub situated by the dockyards in Southampton and just a short walk from the city centre. It dates back to 1873 but is built partly within the old medieval walls which can be seen in the bar. The décor is relaxed and has an ethnic feel, with walls adorned with masks, relics and pictures. Cosy up by the fire during the winter months and soak up the sun with outdoor seating in the summer. The pub is open every day for lunch and dinner and all food is freshly prepared using local ingredients. The menu encompasses light bites and Mediterranean tapas, home-made pub classics including their famous pies, burgers, and fish and chips, a pizza menu and an à la carte selection. All dishes are prepared in-house so most dietary needs can be catered for, with allergens provided. There’s a great selection of house or premium wines and spirits, and always something new to try on cask. The Platform Tavern also has live music every week for free.

Excellent Sunday roast and the chicken and leek pie roast was also very good. Super value for money and great pub atmosphere.

We always visit the Platform Tavern when visiting So’ton, especially on a Sunday…… excellent roasts with generous serving of meat at a great price and equally good sticky toffee pudding. Always have a decent range of beers/ales on tap and the frequent live music acts are a definite bonus. Thanks to the friendly staff, great service!

Three of us had the Sunday roast. Good portion with friendly service. Pub was quiet when we arrived around 4:30 but quickly filled up. Great bit of humour on door to Gents loo - you have to experience it in person!

Great atmosphere and venue, live music was great. Drinks are a bit expensive with £10.50 for a large glass... But otherwise super tasty roast.
