With thousands of runners crossing the Great South Run finish line on Sunday many will be looking to find somewhere for a well-earned drink and bite to it.
Fortunately there are a number of fantastic pubs, bars and restaurants within a short distance from Southsea Common. We have put together a list of 15 places to walk to, or crawl to if needed.
With so many great places to go in Southsea, this is not an exhaustive list but aims to give runners and their families a good selection of places to pick from whatever they are in the mood for.
Here are 15 places to head to once you have finished the Great South Run on Sunday, October 18:
13. The Florence Arms
To head off the beaten track, The Florence Arms on Florence Road is only a short walk away from the Great South Run finish. Picture: Sarah Standing (260625-5188) | Sarah Standing
14. The Briny
The Briny is in a great location with views across the sea. With Southsea promenade expected to be busy on Sunday you may need to book a table ahead of time. | Mike Cooter
15. Gunwharf Quays
For those looking to head away from the finish line area, Gunwharf Quays is still walkable if you have the energy. The waterfront destination has a number of bars and restaurants from Slug & Lettuce and Nando's to Banana Tree, Wagamama, and Brasserie Blanc and everything in between. | Umpf Ltd
