Excellent service and meal, first time and won't be the last. Thanks

Had a lovely breakfast here. 3 empty plates speaks for itself. Service as always was brilliant. If you’ve not been here for food you need to! Excellent value for money and a beautiful location with free parking.

This is our 5th visit to The Harbour Lights, slowlyworking our way through their delicious menu. The food is lovely, the staff are friendly, what’s not to like.

Came with family food was delicious and staff very helpful and friendly

Visited with friends for tea. Staff friendly and attentive, food was delicious a couple of us had the steak pie- highly recommend lovely tender pieces of steak and pastry was fab. My friend had a parmo which was huge and lovely home made chunky chips. Will definitely be back

Was very nice quiet little pub with a view of the harbour lovely friendly atmosphere with polite friendly staff value for money can't complain as was homemade beef dinner was melt in your mouth tasty defo will be back

Had a family social here, and having tried both various breakfast options, decided to go for the Cod & Chips, wasn’t disappointed at all - very generous portion's. I had reserved seating, though the pub busy, staff as always friendly & provided a great service with serving food & drinks, wasn’t kept waiting. Love the atmosphere and would highly recommend..thanks.

Thank you.. Booked for our Daughters Birthday.. and there was 10 of us! Staff absolutely lovely, friendly and professional.. Food was tasty, red hot and delicious we all cleared our plates.. Thank you ☺️

Came for Sunday lunch which was one of the best I have had and will def be back. Staff lovely and attentive.the only thing that let it down was having dogs where people were eating....I love dogs but there was six when we were eating. Had there been someone with one right beside our table like I seen some were I maybe would have left.....also dogs barking when eating isn't great....it wouldn't stop me from coming back although I would request not to be near a table which had brought a pet.....

Came to the steak night on Friday and the food was absolutely beautiful the steak was cooked to perfection and the onion rings where amazing staff very friendly and helpful would highly recommend. Also tried the Sunday dinner today and it was out of this world the beef was cooked to perfection literally best dinner I've had in years absolute gem of a pub.

We have been to the Harbour Lights several times now since they reopened. Every time the good has been amazing and the service impeccable! The staff are lovely and a credit to the management, ( Claire even remembers what I drink!) we will definitely be back!

Absolutely delicious food!!! Staff are very accommodating, very ample portion sizes, cannot fault this place 10/10

Lovely clean well presented restaurant, great service. 1st visit here as live local now. Food was served quick, husbands fish and chips lovely, I didn't enjoy the chicken parmesan as much, piled on top of the chips therefore making them soggy. Sauce was a bit too thick for me, but I would definitely return choose a different dish.

Went there for dinner on Thursday night. I had the seafood carbonara. It had no seafoood in it. Was salmon and fish only and really bland. I kept adding salt to season but didn’t really help. Barely ate any. The waitress asked at the start of the meal before i barely tasted it. Then the waitress at the end asked and I told her my opinion. She did say I could have had something else but a bit late but no deductions on the bill. My friend had the gammon steak half was fine and the other half overcooked. Staff were pleasant enough. But based on this I would go back for food

We had the most delicious Sunday dinner,couldn't fault a thing.The staff were efficient,friendly and helpful,my husband chose whitebait for starter,the scrumptious roast belly pork for his main and New York cheesecake for dessert. I had the featherblade of beef which was so tender and tasty,the veg was fresh and cooked perfectly,and the Yorkshire pudding crispy,just how I like them.I had apple crumble and custard for dessert.Would highly recommend this great pub and we will definately return.

Excellent quality meals, very large portions and great service. A little gem of a place.

Good value friendly staff will go back

Lovely Sunday lunch, nice atmosphere and friendly staff
