Originally Southsea Police Station, this premises was converted in 1996 by Allied Breweries into the Fuzz & Firkin brewpub. In 2001 the pub was refurbished and reopened as the Goose At The V & A, changing its name to the Victoria & Albert in 2013. What we have now is a large, well appointed, single bar pub, carpeted throughout and furnished with a mixture of traditional tables and chairs, banquettes and upholstered armchairs. A raised area in the rear corner of the pub contains a series of back-to-back booths. Two ornate chandeliers hang in the central bar area and the walls display a collection of framed prints of Portsmouth past. Outside is a patio garden overlooking the junction of Victoria and Albert Roads.
