Portobello is a name taken from the eponymous town in Panama, a Spanish silver port in the days of Empire, which was captured by the Royal Navy in November 1739 during the War of Jenkins' Ear. British places bearing the name may generally be dated from the celebrations of that victory.
Portobello then may be:
- Portobello, Dublin
- Portobello, Midlothian
- Portobello, Staffordshire
- Portobellow estate in Wakefield
Perhaps most famous though is the Portobello Road in London.
