Harbour house interior

About

Harbour House is an all day venue, for every occasion. A waterfront restaurant, bar and terrace set amongst a magnificent backdrop of original features in one of last remaining 19th century transit sheds in the Southwest.

Critically acclaimed, Harbour House has been featured in esteemed guides, such as The Michelin Guide 2023, Hardens, Trencherman’s and The Good Food Guide. In 2023 we won Best Bar at the Bristol Life Awards.

Their menu champions the best seasonal produce and suppliers from the Southwest with emphasis on the finest seafood the region has to offer. The seafood linguine and kedgeree arancini are signatures but the hearty and diverse selection appeals to every part of the day. Their private event and party menus offer something for all to feast on and leave thoroughly satisfied.

In the bar locality doesn’t just stop with the food. On tap are some of Bristol’s star breweries, our ‘Britz’ list which is Harbour House’s salute to the amazing English Sparkling wine industry sits perfectly with a seasonal bespoke cocktail menu, eclectic wine list and gins for your heart’s content.

With some of the most iconic views the city has to offer and steeped in history. Rumoured to be Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s private boathouse and designed by himself with some of the features being prototypes to eventual builds at Paddington station and a little known artist who you might’ve heard of called Banksy had his first exhibition in this very building in the year 2000, wonder what happened to him?
