Information on the frontage of the Harbourside informs readers that stone baked pizzas are available all day and the doors open at 14:30 during the week and at noon during weekends. There are five picnic tables behind a waist high fence outside the front of the pub, but the adjacent road gets quite busy. I didn’t see any other outside areas advertised.
The interior is spacious and the left hand seating areas were empty as the ten or so locals had congregated around to the right of the bar where there is a pool table and dartboard. A plasma screen is also found here, but there is no Sky Sports. A radio was on behind the bar and some of the regulars were listening to the commentary of the Premier League football match that was being played. There were some very tiresome love songs playing in the background, but thankfully someone put their hand in their pocket and selected some more upbeat songs from the jukebox. The three hand pumps on the bar were all unused during my recent Tuesday evening visit, but Old Speckled Hen was available on draught alongside Cobra and some standard draught.
This is a perfectly acceptable local pub, but I’m not sure it is worth the walk from the centre of town.
