Graham Coombs left this review about Pier Bar
More of a restaurant now, but still possible just to have a drink. One long nicely furnished room, with windows looking out on the sea, plus a number of tables outside on the pier itself. Two handpumps offer Adnams Bitter and Ghost Ship and seemed in good condition, even had Cask Marque accreditation. Food is pretty good also.

train man left this review about Pier Bar
Inside is far more similar to a pier cafe than a pub or bar, but with the sun shining it was very pleasant to sit outside with a beer watching the sea. There is also an open but shielded wooden windbreak area with tables, and the beer quality was far superior to what you may usually expect in a tourist trap, Adnams of course, like every pub in town.
