I always enjoy the food at the Harbour Lights, the chips are lovely; I was there on Friday afternoon 28/02/25. The pub was warm and felt cosy, it's clean too . I had the sea bream, it was lovely with nicely cooked vegetables; my son had the chicken parmesan with chips, he said it was delicious, there was a lot on the plate too. The service was excellent and the staff are very nice.

Four of us had a lovely meal here. Delicious home cooked pub grub, generous portions and friendly and efficient service. Very accommodating of a gluten allergy of one of our party. Warm and welcoming atmosphere with clean facilities. Will definitely return.

We visited for lunch on Wednesday, a last minute decision. So glad we booked, couldn’t believe how busy it was. Seated in the sunny conservatory we enjoyed a beautiful lunch. I had Chicken and Mushroom pie, gorgeous pastry and packed full of filling. Hubby had the braised steak, again everything was delicious. Service was great, the staff know their jobs, so friendly they help create the warm atmosphere. We are so fortunate to have such a special place on our doorstep.

Delicious Sunday roast - lots of choice. The veggie in our group loved the nut roast option. Great wine in cold clean glass. Friendly service - great prices. Already booked to return!

The food at the harbour lights is very good quality and prices very reasonable. T Bone steak was worth every penny and cooked to perfection. The new set up is great with simple online booking. Will definitely go back again as a canny choice of food.

We've eaten here before but this was our first Sunday lunch and we weren't disappointed. I was impressed with the vegetarian choice. Not something I'm used to going out for Sunday lunch as a "veggie". The others in our party said their meat was cooked to perfection and overall we all thought the food was excellent. Given that and the excellent staff I would definitely recommend the Harbour Lights.

Love the Harbour Lights. Great food at reasonable prices. The service is spot on and there is always a good atmosphere

Excellent meal and service in a cosy, friendly environment! Thank you for a lovely evening!

Excellent meal and excellent service. I have allergies and it’s not a problem as the staff clearly understand the issue and will ensure the meal is safe.

Excellent food, large portions. VERY friendly & attentive staff. Nothing is a bother especially if a guest has a food allergy. Definitely recommend a visit.

Four of us came for Sunday lunch. I had the rump of beef which was cooked on the pink side but it does state that on the menu so it was fine for me. My family all had mince and dumplings. The meals were of a generous portion and the veg came out in a serving bowl between the 4 of us plus a cauliflower cheese side dish. Food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Would definitely go again.

I visited with my wife for Valentines dinner. We were not disappointed. The whole experience was amazing. We were met with a very friendly and cheerful member of staff and were shown to our table, and drinks were promptly brought. The service was impeccable, and the quality of the food was beyond expectations. We will definitely return, and would highly recommend anyone else to do the same. You will not be disappointed.

I feel a fraud writing this as I say the same thing everytime! FABULOUS Goodman staff and service EVERY time

Lovely evening, good food, great atmosphere and excellent service. This could now be our regular restaurant.
