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.

Regular jaunt for our little group. Have never been disappointed with the great quality of food and the service provided by very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thoroughly recommend the Harbour Lights for a night out and a great meal.

We came to remember daddy on his birthday, he loved this place. We had great food in a great place with happy memories.

Four ladies who like to lunch. The food was fab. Steak was perfectly cooked, salmon superb and fish and chips were great. Service was good, staff so friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. Altogether a lovely afternoon.

A fabulous meal for 3 on Sunday, food was great and service impeccable. Thank you to the staff member who managed to provide us with a dog-friendly table, I booked without making them aware as I didn't know. But even with a full house they managed to accommodate which was a real relief and a show of patience and exceptional service from the lady behind the bar. Would highly recommend to all.

Great food friendly staff and good value for money would definitely recommend
