The Drummond Arms is a large community pub, located in a prominent position on the corner of Welbeck Avenue and Somerset Road in Portswood, Southampton. The pub is situated in a densely populated area of Southampton, very close to the Southampton University campus and also Southampton Common. The pub is surrounded by residential housing, with a mixture of private and student occupiers. Architecturally there are some nice touches with oval arches through to the games area and matching window lattices.
Pub Layout
The main trade area of the Drummond is spacious and dominated by the central bar servery, visible to the customer from the front entrance. There is a games area to the right rear of the bar with pool table, gaming machines and darts board which is regularly utilised by the local darts team. The trade kitchen is conveniently accessed through a door to the right of the bar. There is a fantastic beer garden at the back of the pub, arguably one of the best in Southampton, which is accessible from the games area and front trade room. The garden is a huge asset, with a raised lawn, terrace barbeque area and additional terraced space with pergola and bench seating lower down.
