Get comfortable at one of green banquettes overlooking Alakea Street or at the marble bar and pick from nearly two dozen cocktails like the tropical Secret Swiftie with amaro and dishes like beer battered fish and chips.

    Lunch at Bar Podmore never disappoints. Often looked over as a Sunday lunch-ing option since it's located in downtown, it's the perfect spot to avoid the crowds at other popular eateries. The smoked soufflé was the biggest highlight today but the Full English Breakfast and Chicken + Waffles were just as great.

    Podmore is one of my favorite downtown restaurants. The decor is attractive, with comfortable dark green velvet booths and granite tables. The brunch is excellent. The food is well prepared, delicious, and beautifully presented. I had the Morning Harvest Hash and loved it. The service was good and the wait staff was friendly and attentive. I’ve never been disappointed when I dine here.

    This was not my first time at Podmore, but it was my first time for dinner service. Everything was absolutely divine. Service was friendly and efficient, food was delicious, and seating was comfortable.

    Very nice restaurant. We don’t give high marks as a rule so this is the exception. Very creative menu. Well prepared with good ingredients, authentic, British classics . Comfort food. Not precious. Bravi. Excellent bartender John

    Great dinner and good happy hour pricing from 3:30-5:30. We had the duck curry and lamb shepherds pie. Both were excellent and good cocktails too.

    Great restaurant with quality food and service. Unfortunately our wait staff no less than four times had to return to our table to inform us that the drink, dish, or dessert we ordered was unavailable. Seemed odd they were short supplied of multiple menu items.
