Harbour House Coffee Shop in West Somerset

Stopped here for coffee and cake whilst my children were crabbing. The lady that served us was an absolute delight! Worth a visit for her friendly and welcoming service <3

Lovely little coffee shop. Gorgeous coffee and great variety of cakes. Nice selection of board games and a fascinating folder full of adverts and newspaper clippings from the First World War keep you entertained too. Staff very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble for Cindy!

Really cute little coffee shop with gorgeous views of beach and sea. Very friendly staff and the perfect place to have lunch and a coffee after some long walks in the area. They do a great fish finger sandwich and I also love the burgers. I've been a few times and will keep coming back!

Very expensive food, staff very abrubt , a staff member stroked a dog, gave it a dog biscuit anndl didn't wash their hands and then served a cake to someone..So disgusted i walked out and won't be returning..i own a b n b and i have previously been asked recommendations where to go for lunch..i will be advising holiday makers to go else where ..

Visited recently and food and coffee was good but behaviour and attitude of owner was absolutely shocking when we raised an issue with one of our orders So RUDE and aggressive and completely unacceptable

Fab place for coffee and cake. They also do pasties and breakfast rolls. Recommended

We went to the coffee harbor side cafe .Having a bacon roll it tasted bad …The owner was awful and said that the bacon must have been because of a metallic taste in my friends mouth .Awful service,blaming the customer and not accepting that there was something wrong with the bacon …we had a refund ..Awful customer service.

I’ve been before and was good but unfortunately on my last visit the staff seemed miserable and the hygiene seemed poor a knife fell on the floor and the waitress picked it up wiped it and gave it to customer also I had a flat white and was rather weak

What a great find - fantastic menu and above all really welcoming and friendly staff … we tucked into tea and cakes whilst looking on with envy at the dishes being served up to other guests - would highly recommend!

Food is very nice and well priced, lots to choose from including lots of lovely cakes. Nice seating area, service wasn’t great, no one came to check if everything was ok once we got our food and they both seemed quite uninterested and irritated but apart from that it was nice

Nice place, visit the area regularly, always nice staff Inc one, Donna who I spoke to today to ask her for local info, polite and helpful, good to have nice staff.

Hi just a quick thanks to the harbour shops cafe and a staff member whom I asked for her name, Donna, what a nice member of staff! Helpful and polite, glad you have nice staff to go with the nice food!

Was overcharged for the drinks, when I pointed this out, I was told the price had gone up! Price was clearly marked on the board. I should have walked out. Not impressed with the hygine as teh drinks were served on a a dirty tray, no serviette so the spoon was 'dirty'.

We were directed to this coffee shop by a fellow business owner from another cafe. On arrival we were told everything on the menu was available. They were trying to say the sausage rolls were lovely, so my husband had 2. I couldn't see a price for them, and it wasn't until we were told how much our bill was I realised how expensive they were. 2 sausage rolls, a cheese toastie and 2 coffees came to £26.95. I kept trying to work how much things were individually. And it was difficult to question the bill once the items were put in front of us. We were well and truly robbed.

If you want a warm family feeling coffee/cake/breakfast - please see Colin and his team. Genuine people who are doing such good work. They provided us with excellent food in the morning, all vegan, the coffee and cake were great too. The staff are awesome! I would 100% return.

Great food and staff are great. Lots of vegan options. Had a brilliant late breakfast with the whole family. Thanks.

Went here today 10th August, for lunch. Ordered food for 8 of us, the burgers and fish finger baps were good, but the problem was the two cream teas we ordered.... You know where you are with Roddas clotted cream, I had one bite and it wasn't right, I checked the smell and the pot and noticed it was expired. Asked my friend if his was the same, both expired Jul 22nd. I went to the counter, where they told me they froze the clotted cream to make it last longer. The process clearly doesn't work with clotted cream, coz it tasted very odd. The lady did refund us which was appreciated

Amazing food and service. I had the white chocolate and strawberry hot chocolate on Saturday and came back the following Saturday for another. It is amazing. The cake, baguettes and sandwiches are also delicious.

Great cafe in Porlock Weir. Had a delicious chip butty, as well as a hot drink and a cookie. A perfect start to the day before tackling the SWCP. Served by a very polite young lady, would recommend!

Very friendly staff and very nice coffee, The wife and myself was so impressed we went back latter and had are lunch there, This will definitely be are first place to visit when we go to Porlock Weir next time.

Great coffee, even better cakes, and amazing staff. I definitely recommend stopping by here if you're on Porlock Weir

Travelled 35 miles to visit this coffee shop arrived at 3.35pm and sat in the annex. Then was told after 5 mins to move as they were shutting at 4 'o' clock and needed to bring the tables in. So moved further inside. Whilst doing this i could hear my wife ordering a latte with the milk in the cup and the coffee separate so we could add it later. I like weak coffee. She explained this twice. They came to the table with a latte with what they described was about ½ shot in it and then separate shots in a expresso cup. We both said that was not right and we had to explain it again, after a few mins ½ cup of steamed milk turned up! So again we had to ask for it to be filled up! Really don't know why they couldn't get this right and after this went very sarcastic with us banging biscuits down on the table in front of us and asking us if everything was alright now. Also heard them moaning as two German holiday makers ordered toasted sandwiches and they did not really want to do this as they were closing but they did in the end. My issue here is two fold. If you are going to run a cafe in a tourist area then you should not be shutting up at 4 'o' clock on a Saturday afternoon! It is all over the West Country news that this year (2024) visitor numbers are down. You need to look after each and every customer that graces their presence in your establishment. Then secondly you need to listen to your customers requirements when making a simple latte and not take it out on them because you got it wrong! Indecently all other shops in Porlock Weir should not be shutting at this time either as there were plenty of people about. Lost revenue and sadly we won't be coming back! also review 100% accurate.

Lovely coffee house staff made my birthday special with a complementary apple pie beautiful location

We found this little coffee shop right by the harbour.The rain was pouring and we fancied something to eat and drink.Walked in with our two wet dogs and was greeted by a lovely gentleman behind the counter.My wife ordered the chicken burger I had the pork and apple burger with chips.Both were extremely excellent and I loved the thick chips.Coffee was best I’ve had in a while.A good selection of food and cakes and very reasonably priced.The place was busy even on a miserable day so that speaks volumes in itself.I would definitely return you can count on it. Thanks guys see you soon

A little tricky to find but worth the effort. A overflow seating area on the harbour edge, especially pleasant when the tide is in. A good selection of hot and cold food and drinks. Not inexpensive but very little is at Porlock Weir. We had toasted sandwiches which were very tasty, and the staff were efficient if not overly friendly.

I was down on holiday last Sunday and what a lovely cafe I only had a cappuccino but the lady was so lovely she gave my dog a doggie treat the lady was so friendly and nothing was too much my coffee was hot and just how I liked it I went back the next day to have a fish finger butty and it was really nice

This little gem of a cafe sits right on the harbour wall in Porlock Weir. Lot's of indoor and outdoor seating, with a nice welcoming reception from the staff. The lady who served me was very cheerful and polite. I can only assume she is the manager as she showed a high level of confidence in her attitude to customers and other younger staff members.. I visited mid morning on the weekend and enjoyed a lovely English breakfast, lovely fresh cooked, well presented and ample portions. I had two Latte coffees and they were perfectly made and hot. I would certainly recommend this cafe, whether for just a tea,coffee or cold drink or a light meal. I'll certainly go again when I'm on the area.

Excellent venue, car parks near by good views . Varied menu and the fish finger sandwich was fantastic as was the fresh granary bread and salad. Sit in or out. Clean toilets. Would definitely go again.

The lady owner is an absolute piece of work. She has zero respect for her staff and even less for her customers. She will raise her voice and speaks to her young staff abhorrently with no regard to who else is there. The cafe is routinely empty whilst the rest of the weir is rammed. The food and drinks are nice but take a lifetime to come and one burger had plastic still on it in the bun with salad and sauce on top!!! The lady serving drinks is pleasant but be aware that when ordering your drink you should not talk to her else she has to stop what she is doing to gossip with you or more likely another member of staff then she forgets your order and has to start again. She cannot multi task and is regularly observed sat on a sofa on her phone or gossiping instead of being front of house. Whilst there one of us was given a product that they were allergic to despite notifying the member of staff taking the order and the chef! This resulted in illness and is horrifically dangerous to future patrons of the cafe. In short, the management is rude, the older staff and chef incompetent and the younger staff brow beaten. The food may or may not poison or choke you if you even receive it at all. 0/10 do NOT recommend.

We had a very good breakfast here. Lots of choice on the menu. Very good and friendly service. You can sit there comfortably with a view of the harbor. We spoke to someone who had spent the night there and he was also very satisfied

Lovely breakfast this morning ,We had 5 dogs which were all welcome too.x

Ordered two flat white coffees- but was presented with two very weak and milky large coffees- very disappointing

The best cafe in Somerset! Delicious food, and lovely people

The Harbour House coffee shop is a great independent family run business. We ate and drank in there a couple of time and it was a very pleasant experience. The breakfasts we had were excellent. Freshly cooked and great sized portions. Good coffee and a serious big tea pot. Very welcoming and good staff. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Lovely views and the best fish finger sandwich I've ever had. Also came with a delicious salad coffee and chips. Clean facilities, friendly staff. Wonderful. Good value too

This place last year was like a breath of fresh air! Very much needed in porlock. Great food, fantastic coffee and the most amazing staff! However most of the staff have left and the customer facing owner will be the absolute death of it! She is rude and abrupt, with absolutely no idea on how to treat the young staff. It’s such a shame as the food is lovely along with the location and rest of the team. We will not go there again whilst she’s is front of house.

Cosy dog friendly cafe, we stopped when we went for a walk, seems that the breakfast is very good, however, we only had coffee, they gave treats to our little doggy.

Stumbled into this place on a blustery and wet day. Hot chocolate, and ice cream with a handsome slice of cake. Great service and the owners running a warm and welcoming cafe.

We were lucky enough to visit on a lovely warm, sunny lunchtime so far outside and took in the beautiful view. This is a lovely, welcoming cafe and the staff were friendly and helpful. Reasonable prices too. Loved it!

We had an excellent cream tea today. Super strawberry jam and great value too. The 3 young members of staff were a credit to themselves and the whole place. Well done a. We will see you again.

Great little cafe - excellent location, views, coffee, food and service. Will stop again next time I’m cycling through.

Fabulous coffee shop! Great location, superb views, friendly staff and beautifully decorated. This place was being done up last time we came, so it was great to sit and have good coffee and cake and with such a lovely atmosphere. On our list for next time definitely.

Delicious food and great coffee!

A lovely little cafe that does excellent coffee and cakes including gluten free options. Situated right on the picturesque harbour of Porlock wier with stunning views of Exmoor. Friendly staff made the visit that much more pleasurable. Thank you all! We'll be visiting again

Lovely coffee. Great service. Wonderful ambience. Friendly service. Thanks Cindy

Such a lovely coffee shop. Great drinks and cakes. Stunning sea views. Our dog pulled over a chair when we were sat outside and caused some drama. We were mortally embarrassed and the lady was extremely kind. Lovely coffee shop and lovely people. 100% recommend :) x

Only stopped for a coffee but was a very warm welcome

Great location Lovely staff Good food Slightly chaotic, no problem Positive atmosphere

Lovely little cafe with indoor seating, but outside on the wooden tables on a grass area next to the harbour is best. Good choice on the menu and the food we chose, (Pork and Apple burger and Minted Lamb burger with chips and side salad) was fantastic. I had a White Hot Chocolate and I have never tasted one so good ! If you are in Porlock Weird I can recommend it.

Escaping the rain I decided to grab an early lunch and headed for this venue. It looks very attractive from the outside, and inside the maritime theme was continued in a very interesting way. I grabbed a seat just in time, because this is obviously a very popular venue, and seeing the food and drink on offer, one can see why. It's a most delightful setting, full of charm, and the service is friendly and welcoming. The menu is pretty varied and I opted for a cream tea which really was ample; and the scones and jams were delicious. There were plenty of other offerings of a more savoury kind and it's just a delightful place to eat. When it's not raining there is good outdoor seating as well I recommend a visit, but arrive in time be sure of a seat

What a stunning setting beside the quaint harbour with stunning views. The owner and staff were very and helpful. As for the breakfast it was beyond my expectations and was exceptional.

What wonderful place to find. Stunning setting, lovely owner and staff and a breakfast that totally surpasses my expectations. It truly was a great experience and superb food.

Excellant position beside Porlock Weir harbour. Seats inside and out. Service friendly and unusual choice of savoury scones...sundried tomato and olive/marmite and cheese!! Range of breakfasts and cakes. Coffee good flavour.

Lovely location nice staff. Aansome cup of tea according to my wife

Lovely little coffee shop on the harbour wall...good food and coffee..

The best hot chocolate and cappuccino with soy or oat milk, etc. we have ever had. Nice and cosy with great views, lovely lady. Accommodation available too.

Excellent location dog friendly great service always with a smile. We love the coffee and cakes, and wish them every success

Lovely location down at Porlock Weir. Situated right on the harbour. They had a lovely selection of cakes and offered a good range of options for lunch. We both went for fish finger sandwiches. They were served on proper bread and were really tasty. The coffee is really good here too. Friendly staff and a really nice atmosphere.

On a cold wet day we stopped for warm drinks. The matcha latte was absolutely amazing and the hot chocolates were lovely too. 100% recommend

Popped in for coffee, cake and a fish finger buttie. The place has only been open a couple of months. It is family run, dog friendly and welcoming. Great service. Excellent coffee & cake. Reasonably priced considering the harbour front location. So there are excellent views from some of the tables.

Lovely food. Very welcoming and dog friendly too.

Thank you James for the most amazing lunch…. Best I’ve ever had Xxx

My Nanna and I pulled in here as she used to live in the middle cottage in the weir many years ago, so we were visiting. As she is a wheelchair user we were not able to cross the bridge as it was not wide enough so I pulled in as close as I could. When we stopped we spotted this lovely sweet coffee shop In what used to be the old sweet shop when I was a child. The lady was very welcoming as I was greeted with a smile! In a lovely cosy and quaint atmosphere😊Two lovely hot drinks and two delicious doughnuts later my nanna and I were sat in the van reminiscing about old times, thank you for making our trip down memory lane special it really makes a difference xx

A very rare day off for myself and hubby so we crossed the moor and headed to Porlock Weir. After a lovely walk along the pebbly beach we headed into this wonderful café. As soon as we walked through the door we were made to feel very welcome 😁 hubby had a lemon muffin and a pot of tea and I had a hot chocolate and a cheese and tomato toastie. All was very delicious! The atmosphere was very homely and the staff were very friendly, we will be returning again very soon 💖 xxx

Excellent coffees, teas and hot chocolates for our group of choral singers. Friendly and helpful service too.

Beautiful new coffee shop right on the harbour. Amazing view, staff, coffee, and food. Thanks Dolphin for looking after us

Stopped for a hot chocolate after completing the first part of the South West coastal path and it was a very welcome resting spot.

Lovely place, no mod cons but a fantastic place to get away from it all. Might see you next year
