Why is The Newcome Arms good for fans?

A traditional Pompey stronghold in Fratton, the Newcome Arms is recognised as a home-fan pub with Portsmouth FC memorabilia and a lively pre-match crowd. It’s not far from Fratton Park, making it a convenient meet spot before heading to the ground. Multiple TVs show Sky Sports and BT/TNT Sports, so you can catch early kick-offs and scores before and after the game. Away-fan guides advise steering clear, underscoring that it primarily serves the home support on matchdays.

Went and reported on Portsmouth vs Wycombe on the final day of the season, and after the game, was invited to try the Newcome out to see a few friends. A very lively atmosphere, friendly staff, plenty of TVs to watch the football, and some funny punters.

Very friendly local pub. Passed by as part of a pub crawl with a friend but ended up staying the whole night because the atmosphere was so welcoming. The owner even arranged a taxi back to our hotel for us at the end of the night. Friendly Welsh barmaid recognised my faint Welsh accent despite me living in Ireland for the past 25 years :-)

Best local pub to be in Fratton. Can go for a quiet pint or a good night with friends or family. Even better on Pompey home games. It’s the place to be as the atmosphere is amazing.
