Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Harbour Inn
Nice-looking pub these days, having been given a good refurbishment both inside and out. It overlooks the tidal harbour area, although there are only limited views from the L-shaped arrangement of seating and dining areas. An excellent Northdown Tidal Moon port-infused stout (£4.50) and cider were available from two of the three handpumps, but several interesting craft beers are available from the keg taps too.

Strongers . left this review about The True Briton
The True Briton has the feel of a pub that has had an extensive refurbishment at some point in the recent past. The interior is decorated with contemporary furniture and modern décor that make up a bright and airy drinking environment that may not go down with lovers of more traditional pubs. There is a restaurant upstairs that was closed during my recent Monday afternoon visit so I didn’t see any menus or food prices. The bar is stocked with standard draught and the three hand pumps were drawing Sharp’s Doom Bar alongside Greene King’s Abbot Ale and London Glory.
There was some low background music playing off a jukebox and Sky Sports was advertised, although there were no screens on during my visit.
I found the service to be friendly and I would consider popping in here if I had the family in tow, but I wouldn’t go here on my own for a drink again.

Previously called The Harbour, this place has had a big refurbishment and is now called The True Briton, which I believe is an old 18th Century name for the pub.

Clive Thompson left this review about Harbour Crab & Oyster Bar
A low ceilinged barn type pub with an unremarkable exterior. There wern't too many punters when I went in on a Sunday night although the presence of live music in the Royal George may have had something to do with that. They sell real ale and it was a friendly enough atmosphere.
