The Jetty Southampton
About
Nestled on the waterfront of Southampton’s bustling Ocean Village, The Jetty is an award‑winning seafood restaurant that marries contemporary London‑style flair with a relaxed, lakeside ambience. Headed by renowned chef Alex Aitken, the menu showcases fresh, locally‑fished produce harvested daily from the New Forest and The Solent, combined with seasonal ingredients sourced from the surrounding region. The menu is crafted for both diners craving a casual pint and those looking for a refined multi‑course experience, with a rotating set menu available Monday to Friday from 12 pm to 7 pm, and daily à la carta options where you can choose from the day’s catch. Guests can dine al fresco on the sun‑lit terrace overlooking the harbor, enjoy a private tasting in the intimate Jetty Pods, or book a special event space for celebrations. The Jetty’s daily live three‑course set‑menu demonstration on the last Friday of each month offers a theatrical, chef‑led showcase of the kitchen's creativity. A dedicated wine list, house cocktails, and seasonal drinks complement the culinary adventures. Reservations are highly recommended, but the venue welcomes walk‑ins within operating hours.
