Rapscallions pirate themed bar and restaurant in Port Solent opens its doors - see inside

A pirate themed restaurant in Port Solent has welcomed its first customers as they are transported to a tropical island paradise.

Rapscallions opened its doors to its first customers on Friday, May 3, with the restaurant completely transformed from its previous guise. The restaurant is their second site to open in the Portsmouth area with their Southsea bar currently thriving in Osborne Road.

The Port Solent restaurant will have the same selection of rums and cocktails as their other bar, but will also have a greater focus on food. Just as with pirates, the menu will feature food from across the world and the restaurant has been decked out to look like the tropical island of Tortuga, where pirates used to congregate.

Bookings are now being taken on their website. We had a sneak peek of the new restaurant before it opened its door.
