Fabulous - we've passed this pub so many times over years of visiting my elderly parents in Portchester. What we missed by not stopping there before! Great pub food, really friendly service, good choice of beers. Warm cosy atmosphere. Best to book a table mid-week as the two for 12 mains are amazing value & very popular. The chef is great and I totally recommend his chicken bacon & cheese dish (hunters chicken?) - but save one portion for me!

What a gem. Driven past this place number of times over years and eventually had lunch here . Food was excellent and variety was great. Well done chef. Staff excellent and attentive. You can tell a good place when staff appear happy . Young lady who served us at 1230 on restaurant part near bar was brilliant . Will be going again.

Having just returned from a Christmas meal with 8 other hearty eaters, I felt compelled to congratulate the chef and staff at the Delme Arms for a job well done. Not only was the room beautifully laid out for our own group and one other large party, but we were welcomed by pleasant staff who maintained their smiles and helpfulness throughout the time we were there. The food was served promptly, hot and in good measure? Quality was good, easily providing value at 15,95 for 2 courses (3 courses available at 19,95) coffee, mints and mince pies. .All meals were ordered beforehand with a 5 deposit
