Liquorice with a twist: "Fancy some liquorice?" Portsmouth Restaurant Tip by Jenniflower

Portsmouth Restaurants: 37 reviews and 47 photos

We came across this fascinating kiosk whilst we were wandering around!

It has all kinds of liquorice in various sizes, shapes and forms... and we had to try a few! These are the biggest liquorice pieces we have ever seen!!

We bought a traditional twisted piece of liquorice (please see Lances photo of him eating it haha)

We also bought a couple of Catherine wheels for me (not good for dieting I know! But wow, what a treat!) They are the biggest wheels I have ever seen! In the middle is some soft chewy bubblegum.

Lance got some tangy apple flavoured liquorice too, and it had sugary bits on it. This was nice, although too sweet for me.

Lastly, we bought some strawberry and cream liquorice - weird combination you probably think? Well... it is divine! I think it was our favourite of all... even though we are lovers of good old traditional liquorice.

They also have butterscotch and bubblegum liquorice... and several other tantalising flavours to choose from!

The lady helping out was helpful and friendly, the prices were £1.50 for one.. or £5 for 4. Considering their size and unique taste, I say it's well worth it!
