Reviews in South Shields

WOW The meal was gorgeous and the portion sizes are amazing for the price. Staff are lovely, very helpful and attentive. All four of us were impressed and thoroughly enjoyed out night. Thank you :)

A lovely waitress looked after us during our visit and we were seated and drink orders taken promptly. The food was hot delicious and the portions were large. We were too full for dessert but looking around other people's looked lovely. This was our first visit but we will certainly be back!

Had a excellent meal on St George's Day. Both my wife and I couldn't fault it. I would recommend this pub for a good hearty meal.

Walked in to be greeted by a very polite waitress who showed us our table. Within minutes another waitress came for the drinks order. The biggest problem we had all night was trying to pick what to eat as everything looks amazing. When ours arrived the portions are massive and all cooked to perfection. Definitely the best place in South Shields to eat now and the staff are a credit to them. They could double the prices and I would still go back.

Gluten free options are absolutely excellent

Visited your lovely pub on Sunday 27th the service was brilliant very friendly staff. The meal was beautiful as always will be returning thank you

First time for Sunday lunch,was first class . Had starter to begin with, coming back Tuesday night for more delicious food.

We decided to try The Harbour Lights for Sunday Lunch, having visited a few times for lunch that was always delicious. We booked and arrived and were seated very quickly and provided with the lunch menu. We had a choice of beef, pork, chicken , mince and dumplings or liver and onions. 1 course was £11.50 and 2 was £15.50. We opted for 2 courses and had garlic mushrooms served on toasted crostini for starters. The mushrooms were cooked well and lovely garlicky. Then we had the chicken in herb for our mains. The chicken was tender and not dry, served with mash and roast potatoes, yourkshire pudding, cauliflower cheese and veg. The only niggle was the cauliflower cheese was warm and not hot and the veg were overcooked and not el dente which I prefer. My husband finished with apple crumble and custard , which he said was delicious. So 2 courses, 1 dessert, 2 pints of Guinness and 2 pints of Morretti came to under £60 and was well worth it.

Lovely lunch as usual best one around.

Third time been and it continues to be excellent. Food beautiful staff very attentive. Can’t fault at all.

Visited on the 12/4/25, family get-together. The reason I chose the harbour lights was that I had visited the venue in the past and wasn't disappointed. I can say exactly the same thing on my latest visit, staff attentive, food was fantastic and the place was lovely and clean, highly recommend will certainly be back.
