Reviews in South Shields

Came to Harbour Lights for Sunday lunch with my husband. We were seated straight away (we booked in advance). Drinks ordered and served quickly. I ordered the belly pork and my husband ordered the feather blade of beef, which was melt in the mouth. Belly pork was tasty. All the trimmings were fresh not frozen vegetables, which I appreciated. Yorkshire puddings also tasted homemade. We both had sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The whole meal tasted like home. It was so delicious. The atmosphere and staff were very welcoming , as well as being professional and friendly. You could see they were hard working. We will definitely be returning and bringing family and friends with us. Would highly recommend.

Food is always amazing, huge portions, fresh, and delicious. Menu has loads to choice from, and excellent prices. You always get a warm welcome, the staff are lovely, so friendly, first class service. And we can take our dog in too. Love the Harbour Lights, would highly recommend.

Nice greeting on arrival, taken straight to our table and drinks ordered. I ordered turkey dinner with no gravy ( I have an intolerance to onion powder which is in most gravy), my hubby ordered featherblade of beef. Both meals came within 5 minutes and were as ordered. Everything was absolutely lovely, but I would have preferred the cauliflower without cheese sauce, and turnip instead of green beans. My hubby said the beef was beautiful and just fell apart. Staff were friendly and attentive. We will go back.

We visited Harbour Lights for the first time on boxing day and were very impressed. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic despite it being very busy. Thank you, we will definitely we back!

Myself and 5 friends went for Bottomless Brunch on a Saturday. 5* service, very fast with drinks. Cocktails were amazing and they weren’t shy on the mammoth amount of Prosecco we got through. We all ordered Pizza’s and they were outstanding! Lovely atmosphere. Can’t fault anything. One of the party even booked for tea the next night before the Panto. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back

What a famous friendly pub… with fantastic food! I had the 3 course Festive menu. Absolutely delicious from the starter to the dessert. Huge main course of turkey with all the trimmings. The table was set with festive cloth and crackers making it extra special! The service from all the staff was exceptional…. Always so polite and very friendly. I brought my large dog aka Rudolph…who is always welcome too. Highly recommended! I wish all the staff and management a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year!

Arrived on time a shown to table within minutes. Drinks sorted first then food order. Lots of choice and was great to see a vegan option in the main courses. Meal brought promptly. Very good portions on plate plus extra gravy and a vegetable medley., plus a separate bowl of sprouts and pancetta. Very good Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes (great crispy edges). Extras of apple and cranberry sauces brought to table. Very filling and great tasting vegetables, not too al dente or not over-cooked taking all the flavors away. Desserts of Xmas Pudding and custard(custard not on menu but asked for a provided without any fuss. Cheesecake very tart and creamy and beautiful caramel sauce. Portion size just right after large main course. Staff very pleasant and just the right amount of interaction without being overbearing. Atmosphere was just right with a good number of people eating. Well worth the cost. Would highly recommend.

As usual great meal, great friendly staff and great ambience. Excellent service and good value for money. Would thoroughly recommend.
