Let me introduce you to Mumms Cafe, a friendly, laid-back spot that feels like one of those places locals quietly treasure and visitors are glad they stumbled upon. Tucked away at Unit 2, Festing Buildings on Highland Road in Southsea, this cafe has an easygoing charm that makes you want to slow down, grab a seat, and stay a little longer. From the moment you step inside, Mumms Cafe gives off a warm, welcoming vibe where good coffee and simple, satisfying food take center stage. It’s the kind of cafe that works just as well for a relaxed morning catch-up as it does for a quick bite between errands, and that flexibility is part of what makes it so appealing. The coffee here is a real highlight, brewed with care and served without fuss, which suits the no-nonsense, comfortable atmosphere perfectly. Alongside that, you’ll find a thoughtful selection of vegetarian options, making it easy for everyone to find something they genuinely enjoy rather than settling for an afterthought. Whether you’re popping in to dine in and soak up the casual buzz, grabbing a takeaway on the go, or opting for delivery when you want comfort food without leaving home, Mumms Cafe fits neatly into everyday life. What really stands out, though, is how natural everything feels, from the menu choices to the service, creating an experience that’s relaxed rather than rushed and never feels forced or overly formal. As someone introducing this place, I’d say Mumms Cafe isn’t about trends or trying too hard to impress; instead, it focuses on doing the basics well, keeping things approachable, and offering a space where people can genuinely unwind. If you’re in Southsea and looking for a cafe that balances quality, comfort, and convenience, this is one spot that easily earns a place on your regular rotation.

Great breakfast served piping hot and quite quickly considering it was very busy, I found the coffee to be a bit weak for my taste but first visit and I like it strong, next time I will order with an extra shot.
Always a positive experience when visiting here, food is great for the price and the menu is very accommodating with lots of choice. Recently we visited. I had 2 eggs, 2 bacon, bubble and squeak, it was very good. My wife had a BLT sandwich with chips, and she very much enjoyed hers. The place is big and has lots of tables to choose, there is always people here eating, which is a good sign. Be back soon
I was told to come back to a Southsea shop in an hour and a half and the item would be ready for me. So where to go? Mumms, home of proper food well cooked and delivered in comfortable welcoming environment. The food was great and the fried slice was probably not what my GP would have recommended for me, but you have to treat yourself sometimes don’t you ? I have added below that parking (for out of towners like me) is a bit difficult. Over the years the Council have slotted residents parking in almost everywhere. Certainly great for the residents but not so good when you’re desperate for a parking space. I found one and made it there and back within the hour that I was allowed and it turned out to be the perfect duration for my lunch. If you’re visiting the beach it’s a simple walk north and you can find it so there’s no excuse not to try the menu.
