"Our first visit.As a Coeliac I always struggle to eat out, but reading a few reviews and checking the menu I felt that Pieminister was worth a visit.On arrival a very cheerful waitress showed us to a table which was a great position, not to close to other diners but not isolated either the place was around 50% full.Our waiter for the evening (whose name I did not get annoyingly) was great, explained how it all worked provided me with the separate menu and put my mind at ease regarding the food. We ordered a couple of drinks whilst waiting; water was also provided.Loved the presentation of the food in an enamel dish on a wooden board and a separate gravy boat loved that.Pie was delicious and piping hot my only critique was the pastry edge was a little crunchy which for GF is blooming amazing often the whole thing is crunchy so well done to the pastry chef.Chips were freshly cooked and tasty.Followed up with Black Forest Ice Cream dessert mine came in a cardboard tub was very tasty and perhaps a slightly too large offering given the main course.The input from the waiter was perfect, checked from time to time we were happy had all we needed, but did not intrude, was cheerful and chatty but not overbearing.Quirky decor reclaimed floorboards on the walls and ceiling, plain wooden table temperature was comfortable, no cold draughts when the door opened. Noise levels were great too couldn't hear nearby diners, nor was it too quiet.A thoroughly enjoyable visit, will very happily return."

"the first time in portsmouth, and just came over this caffe by turning a wrong and walking the castle road on the way to catch the coach. this caffe is located on a street with other amazing independent shops, including a few antique and quirky bric shops. When I was there, I was about to kill ten minutes too soon and I had half an hour before I had to leave. I had a look at the menu and I was pretty impressed. I don't like a cake, but I like music and I like quirky and strange and the names of the cake are so kreatiw, named after band names or songs and there are also vegan cakes and they also do cocktails and not alcoholic. and they also sell vinyl and have events. and it's a tiny room with many strange bits and music posters and film posters, dinosaurs and elders. I fell in love with this place as soon as I got in. there was so much to see, all in small places, a mish macular of everything and everything. I ordered the pink floyd cake and was offered maic, fertilized and gravy to go with it, but I had only the gravure and had cocosnuss tee with milk (they have option.) this cake was so perfect, best cake I ever had and only liked. with pebbles, scabs and pebbles had the torte a bit of a purple leaf and it was all edible. so much love to detail in this place, the little timer I got to choose the small milk bottle, the different types of cutlery. the music was great and everything felt right. the staff was very friendly and responsive. I will definitely come back here if I have more time and eat more cakes!"
