The Cricketers — Restaurant in Southampton

I started coming to the cricketers when my other local closed down. I immediately felt welcomed into the pub and felt part of the place which has become my second home.

The roasts are great quality and value for money and huw and adz are the perfect sunday dream team.

Absolute lovely local in the heart of Bedford Place!

Managed to fit us in for a roast fairly last minute as a previous booking had fallen through at a pub that will remain unnamed, super understanding over the phone and at the bar.

Server dealt perfectly with my family and myself being awkward with stuff like not having one of those silly Erdinger glasses (great selection of beer nice to see some Belgium stuff in the fridge) and the cask having issues but still being polite and apologetic with my impatient father.

Awesome roast dinner as well, cheap and cheerful but didn’t feel so, been drinking here for a while on the open mic Mondays for the cheap cask pints but definitely will come back for a Sunday roast...
