Obriens Coffee — Restaurant in Portsmouth

No compassion! We went to O'briens to get some lunch when we saw a panting dog left outside in the sun tied to a lamp post. We went in to ask for some tap water and were refused!

I went with my mum and got a latte, lemon cake and a vanilla milkshake and the milkshake as well as the cake were overpoweringly sweet and we felt quite sick after eating it, couldn't finish the milkshake as it was too much for me.

When we got home my mum got quite ill too as well as me though to a milder extent - not sure what happened as we only went out to check this place out.
