As someone who absolutely adores a traditional Sunday roast, I think it’s only fair to share some of my favourite spots in the city that would be perfect for Father’s Day which is quickly looming (Sunday, June 15).

7. The Bridge Tavern
Known for being a good pub in a great harbour side location in Old Portsmouth. There's nothing like spending the day soaking in the character of the city with your precious pooch and The Bridge Tavern is a dog friendly spot, perfect for a day out.
