Wine Wednesday 🍷.

Join us for lunch tomorrow where we’ll be tasting our wine of the week.

We’ve just added a few new bottles to our small but mighty wine list, and each Wednesday we’ll be opening one of them and pouring a few glasses on us when you order from the lunch menu.

This week: our new Orange wine from Emiliana in Chile. Full of apricot and stone fruit flavours, this is brilliant if you fancy trying something a bit different.

Shout out to Camber Wines for keeping us stocked and introducing us to some beauties as we enter our new wine era.

📣 PSA - our current menu is coming to the end. We’ve written and tested our new dishes and we’ll be launching our Autumn menu towards the end of NEXT week. So last chance to grab your favourites before we get all cosy season on you 💚💚

Join us for an intimate, guided coffee cupping exploring the incredible coffee from Ethiopia.

Throughout the evening, we’ll taste a selection of Ethiopian coffees processed in a variety of ways.

By tasting them side by side, we’ll explore how different processing methods can influence the character of a coffee, from sweetness and acidity to fruit character, body and fermentation.

We will guide you through the tasting, explaining what happens to a coffee from cherry to bean and how each stage of processing can influence what we experience in the cup.

This is a relaxed, hands-on evening designed for anyone who enjoys coffee and wants to understand more about what makes each cup taste the way it does - no previous coffee knowledge or cupping experience is needed.

Event Details:
• Date: 14th October
• Time: 6:00pm
• Tickets: £5 per person
• Location: Southsea Coffee.

Spaces are limited, so book early to secure your place. See link below 👇

New week new need for coffee.

Have you tried our new guest espresso yet? From Edison Argote - an amazing Colombian producer - it’s a coconut co-ferment. VERY different from our house espresso it’s like dessert in a cup.

Coconutty, sweet and a delicious example of what coffee producers are experimenting with at source. Try in a flat white if you want something unusual 👌.

So. This Friday.

We’re bringing back £5 espresso martinis from 4–6pm because Lou and I rather like the idea of them marking the end of the working week.

Laptop shut. Out of office on. Espresso martini.
And then… stay for dinner (obvs).

This week I’m going to be cooking up the following Friday specials:

Sticky chicken
’nduja butter, charred peppers & garlic yoghurt

Crispy gnocchi
mushrooms, sage butter & Parmesan

Red wine plums
mascarpone cream & amaretti

All alongside our usual larger small plates menu, wines from our friends at Camber Wines, spritz and cocktails.

————————

Fridays at Southsea Coffee:

Open as normal for breakfast/brunch/lunch from 8:30am.

Small plates from 2:30pm.
£5 espresso martinis 4–6pm.
Kitchen closes at 7:30pm.
Open until 8pm.

Come for an espresso martini. Stay for a table full of small plates.

Seems like a pretty good way to start the weekend to me.

See you tomorrow, yeah?

New coffees on the bar and retail drop from Scenery.

Guest espresso:

Edison Argote coconut Co-ferment - Ethiopia.
Roasted by Campbell and Syme this coffee is co-fermented with coconut. It has an ultra-creamy texture, white chocolate and vanilla sweetness and a rich coconut finish. We had this last year and absolutely adored it so are super excited to see it again this year.

Pour-overs.

Karumandi AA #023 👉 a traditional washed Kenyan coffee, produced by 1,600 smallholder farmers who are part of the Baragwi Cooperative Society in Kirinyaga, Kenya, and roasted by Scenery.

Karumandi has a zesty profile, flavour notes of rhubarb, whitecurrants and gooseberries, and is a vibrant, tangy and delicate coffee full of fruity sweetness.

El Diablo FW from Nicaragua 👉 another traditional washed coffee, produced by 5 smallholder farmers near the forests of Jinnotega, El Diablo features 5 different varieties: Catuaí, Caturra, Castillo, Pacas and Parainema.

El Diablo has a confectionery profile, flavour notes of toasted pistachio, milk chocolate and strewed apple; a creamy, dessert-like but bright coffee full of pastry sweetness.

Plus a wider range of beans for home on the counter and all beans available on our website for click and collect or home delivery ☕️☕️.

Tonight’s specials:

RIGHT. SEPTEMBER. LET’S GO. 🍂

Kids are going back to school, and of course it’s raining again (hands up if you were complaining about the heat approximately five minutes ago?!)…

Anyway. I’m ready for it and Southsea Coffee most definitely is💪.

Cosier evenings, proper food, glasses of wine and a VERY good excuse to actually leave the house.

So here’s what we’ve got coming up at Southsea Coffee this month.

SUPPER CLUB 👉 WEDNESDAY 23RD SEPTEMBER

We’ve only got a couple of seats left for this one after putting it out on the mailing list (sorry).

Four courses, fizz on arrival and a menu that is basically me leaning fully into September.

See below for the shortened version:

🌿Sweetcorn velouté
🌿Pork belly (or roast squash) with potato galette, autumn greens & apple jus
🌿Plum & almond tart with bay leaf ice cream
🌿Cheese & crackers

If you’ve been thinking about booking… this is your nudge.

-——————————

FRIDAY LATES.

Turns out coffee shop by day / wine bar by night is very much our thing.

So we’re carrying Friday Lates straight into cosy season with weekly-changing small plates, good wine and that lovely Friday feeling when someone else is cooking your dinner.

We’re expanding the wine list for the autumn and cannot wait to start putting the candles out for an extra cosy start to your weekends.

And finally…

FLOWERS & FOOD IS BACK 👉 WEDNESDAY 30TH SEPTEMBER

Nia from Nia | Artisan Florist & Floral Stylist is back for another evening of seasonal bouquet making, followed by dinner from me.

This time we’re going proper early autumn:

🌿Roast squash, ricotta & sage cannelloni
brown butter, hazelnuts & crispy sage
🌿 Warm apple & almond cake
cider caramel & crème fraîche ice cream

AND, because we’re licensed now… a glass of wine is included too. 🍷🙌

£80 per person. Including bouquet workshop (that you keep), dinner + wine.

Honestly, you can keep summer. OK, maybe I’ll take that back when it’s dark at 4pm. 😂

Bookings for all of the above are open now. Head over to our website or check out our stories for links.

Shout out to our absolutely amazing team both front and back of house.

It’s been a full on weekend, we’ve been gloriously busy with both regulars and lots of new faces and the whole team has worked super hard.

You are all champions.

A big shout out to our leavers - a whole section of our team who are heading off to uni this September.

Some left earlier in the summer, one still has another shift (shout out to Finn!) and our lovely Nellie did her last shift this Friday 🥲.

We are nothing without the people who take the orders, make the coffees, cook the food, serve the food and clear up afterwards.

Many hands go into making our shop purr and I am so proud of each and every one of them. You are all superstars 🥹🥰🙌

It’s Victorious week and we all know us Pompey lot LOVE a party 🎉.

This is a super busy week for us and we’ve already been feeling it after a bloody great start to the week. Thank you everyone who’s coffee-ed and ate with us so far!

👉 we’ll be open as normal throughout the bank holiday weekend. Watch out for some victorious drink specials perfect for getting the party started on route to the festival 💪 … (boozy banana rum milkshakes anyone?)

Tomorrow we’re kicking things off with our wine Wednesday, pop in for lunch, order off our classics or lunch section and you can have a small glass of our weekly wine on us 🙌🙌.

Friday we’ll be open until 8pm with our small plates menu and specials served from 2:30-7:30. This week I’m going to be cooking up some sticky pork belly with sesame cucumber, doing the crispy new potatoes with feta and hot honey again (because they were 👌) and making the best ever chocolate mousse. Just because.

I’ve also just written our next supper club menu. Wednesday 23rd September - it’s the perfect late summer, ease into Autumn menu and we highly recommend booking soon as seats go FAST.

Nia and I have also collaborated with our next flowers and food. I’ll be putting it on the website in the morning and again it’s a corker of a menu.

So. As bloomin always. SO. MUCH. GOING. ON

Big festie love 💚
