About Portsmouth
What this list covers
The mix here leans heavily into sit-down restaurant dining rather than the pub-grub-only offer you find in plenty of comparable council areas. Zizzi, Las Iguanas, Brasserie Blanc, Wildwood — that is a genuinely varied spread of cuisines for a smaller authority. Frankie and Benny's and Harvester are both present too, though those two run their free-for-children arrangements during holiday windows rather than year-round, so the timing of your visit shapes what you actually walk into. Five of the ten venues sit within PO1, making the city centre a logical base for a family day out. PO6 accounts for three more. Hungry Horse covers two sites across the area, giving the broadest geographic footprint of any single chain here.
Holiday-only chains in Portsmouth: Frankie & Benny's, Harvester, Hungry Horse, Las Iguanas, Zizzi. These quietly flip in for half-term and summer; outside the school holidays they drop off the list.
Verified by the kidseatfree.co.uk editorial team. Every venue here passes a 14-day freshness check; if a chain stops running its offer, it silently drops off the list.
