Pubs & Lounges

Providing an escape from duty, wherever service takes you.

NAAFI pubs and lounges have been part of military life for generations—offering spaces to unwind, socialise, and reconnect. From bustling on-base pubs to modern airport-style lounges, we continue to deliver comfort, familiarity and morale-boosting experiences for the Armed Forces community, wherever they are in the world.

Pubs & Lounges

Spaces that lift spirits and strengthen connection

Serving is demanding. Our pubs and lounges exist to give personnel a chance to relax, laugh, and enjoy a well-earned break. Whether it's a freshly poured pint, live sport, or a quiet coffee in transit, our facilities are designed to create moments that matter.

NAAFI operate pubs and hospitality facilities across a wide range of locations, from the remote outposts of Ascension Island to the Middle East and beyond.
