The Tenth Hole in Southsea: Serving some the best cakes - and mac and cheese - in Portsmouth
A stone’s throw away from the seafront, The Tenth Hole in Southsea is one of Portsmouth best known and most loved eateries in the city which keeps its customers coming back time and time again.
Well-known for its amazing cakes, the tearoom The Tenth Hole in Eastern Parade takes its name from the adjoining nine-hole pitch and putt – said to be the oldest of its kind in the world - with the eatery being the final stop after completing the nine holes of the course.
And a stop at The Tenth Hole is hard to resist with its counter full of delicious cakes welcoming costumers – including its coffee and walnut, jam and buttercream, mixed berry cheesecake, chocolate fudge cake and its strawberry and clotted cream sponge.
But as its loyal customers who line up outside eagerly waiting for a table know, the Tenth Hole is more than just cakes. Serving both a breakfast and a lunch menu, including a children’s menu, The Tenth Hole has a wide variety of things to choose from a croque madame to a homemade steak and Guinness pie. However in what can only be described as Portsmouth’s worst-kept secret, the star of the show is The Tenth Hole’s amazing macaroni and cheese which can also be served with with the option of pesto and tomatoes or bacon and remains a firm favourite with its loyal customers.
