Arrived late in town and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful Jane, Aidan and another member of staff especially who managed to sort us a sandwich when the kitchen had closed would highly recommend, the pub itself is a bonus

We visited the Harbour Inn just before Christmas. There were 7 of us during a busy lunch time, but the team were able to accommodate us by moving some tables (thank you). We had 7 meals. The food is definitely ‘pub grub’, but a high standard! We came back on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day for drinks which was lovely. Great atmosphere.

Ruth your team are great you should be proud of them, Jane front of house is amazing thank you for your help in finding a table and looking after us. Your chefs Shane and Bo well your food is amazing. Loved the Sunday dinner and also the fish finger sandwich. They party atmosphere in the pub NYE was also great a good mix of people of all ages, families and locals.

We went last year, and had the fish stew which was absolutely wonderful, and we have been again this year and it was really lovely, in fact it was better than last year. Last year was a little too spicy, and today it was perfect. The only criticism is the bread that was served with it wasn’t overly large, and when we asked if we could have some more bread we were told to go to the bar to order some more. We waited 15 minutes at the bar to order the food and drinks in the first place, so naturally we declined, we didn’t want to be queueing up at the bar to pay for more bread while our food was getting cold. We mentioned it to the lady who I think might be the landlady, and she wasn’t impressed. So hopefully this won’t be something that happens on a regular basis. Apart from that it was delightful. Had they brought some more bread, I would have given it five stars . We paid £60 for two stews, a soft drink and a glass of wine. So not a cheap lunch, and therefore a little bit of extra bread without being told to go to the bar and queue up and pay for more bread, which would’ve taken another 15 to 20 minutes Isn’t a big ask. The bread is the cheapest part of that meal, so why on earth they couldn’t just give us some more bread is beyond me.

We arrived on a wet Sunday lunchtime to a warm and jolly welcome. We had Sunday roast ( chicken for one and nut roast for the other) the staff were very accommodating to our food preferences. We chose the small portions which were more than enough for us. The food was lovely as was our overall experience. I would definitely recommend!

Lovely staff here, made us very welcome with our small dog and the warmth of a real log fire, but the highlight was the incredible steak & ale pie with beef dripping chips, one of the best S&A pies I’ve ever had with suet pastry and the chips were perfect. My wife had the sea bass fillets and she said they were lovely. Highly recommended.

We were told about this pub after it was highly recommended by a local dog walker who we chatted with during our stopover. She explained that it was super dog friendly and the staff were great there too. She wasn't wrong. We went in around 11:30am and there were a handful of people in the place. The fire was roaring and the feel of the place was fantastic. My wife got me a pint of real ale and the dog a bottle of, 'Bottom Sniffer' dog beer too. It even came with a bowl and an individually wrapped chew. We ordered our food from a very inviting menu and weren't disappointed when it arrived. The food was fantastic. The lady serving could not have been nicer. Her name was Sue and she was a genuine delight to talk with. We told her how nice the food was and she named the staff working in the kitchen that day. Sadly, I forget their details, but I thank you all as a team. By the time we left, the pub was full. We wished we could have stayed longer, but our time was limited. However, we will be back. 5 star review... I wish there were more stars to give.

Lovely place but very expensive. The staff were amazing but the food let's the place down. £9.70 for a glass of wine. The sizzling prawns were underwhelming. Six prawns and two slices of hard baguette. Mussels were laced in garlic and most of then were closed. Didn't meet expectations 😕

There are many places to eat in Padstow from celebrity chef venues to cafes. The Harbour Inn is a traditional pub and offers good food at reasonable prices. It was well staffed with prompt service. What I really liked as a treat, was the fish and chips using freshly caught fish and chips cooked in beef dripping giving a true 1950s flavour. Also has local (St Austell) pump beers as well as many other beers.

Lovely old world pub feeling, where we were treated with a big friendly smiley staff and shown to a vacant table. Our food was delivered by another smiley staff member and nothing seemed to be too much for her. My wife had the Porthtilly muscles of which she said were excellent. I had fish and chips, being allergic to shellfish. I must say the fish was very tasty in a good crisp batter but a little greasy the chips likewise. A good time was had and we certainly intend to return again.

Also they have live music if that's your thing overall a great pub with brilliant atmosphere. Side note when we ordered our food the first thing the barmaid said was "any allergies which I thought was rather prompt of them to be so on it with customer food safety especially when it's the customer responsibility to ensure they tell them instead.

We ate at the Harbour Inn twice during our recent stay in Padstow. From the welcome to the atmosphere to the perfectly chilled and sensibly priced white wine to best of all the food. Outstanding ! We had the steak pie on our first night. Filling tender and proper shortcrust pastry on top and bottom. Fish and chips equally top notch. It's real testament to any pub as to how they execute staple dishes. Both hit the brief full on. A welcoming and warming atmosphere completed both visits. So nice to walk in to a pub and be properly welcomed. Well done guys

When we walked in, the place was full, and we were lucky to get a seat. There was a man playing on the piano who was exceptionally he could play anything and did requests. We ordered food my wife had seafood linguine and i had home made steak and ale pie and chips which i totally enjoyed and my wife said the sea food linguine was on par if not better than the Italian resterant we ate at the night before. We had a great night here, and the staff were so friendly and made us really welcome and a big shout out to Jack who is a topman, and we wish you we'll in you pursuit of your new career.

Staying in Padstow last week with family inc our 2 labs. Found this pub by chance and we ended up eating here 3 times . Food was fab especially the sea bass , monkfish and seafood linguine . Burger was good too. Very reasonably priced and staff were very attentive and helpful. It’s just a great authentic pub . You can’t book a table but let the staff know you’re there and they’ll ensure you get one soon . No complaints at all about this place, definitely recommended . PS…. I didn’t see a crab sandwich on the menu but if this is what you want in Padstow then be prepared to pay high price anywhere you go. Bageyes reviewer - you need to have a word with yourself , stop moaning, get a life. Don’t give unnecessary bad reviews about places that obviously try hard, serve good food and give great service .

Ah, the Harbour Inn in Padstow. Picture this: after a fortnight of dining at establishments that flaunt their Michelin stars with all the subtlety of a peacock in full plume, you find yourself in this unassuming gem. It’s as if the culinary cosmos conspired to surprise you with a revelation. The Blue Ribbon Burger is, without question, the zenith of the gastropub experience. Imagine, if you will, a burger so perfectly constructed that it could be presented as an art piece, only it tastes even better than it looks. It was as if the culinary gods themselves had assembled it for a divine, albeit slightly greasy, intervention. The Harbour Inn is a quintessential English pub – cozy, warm, and unpretentious, with an atmosphere that suggests genuine care rather than affectation. It boasts a splendid assortment of beers, all well-kept. And for those who are abstaining, the non-alcoholic options are far from an afterthought. Service here is brisk yet personable, the sort of friendly efficiency that suggests the staff enjoy their work, or at least are proficient at hiding their disdain for your dietary whims. Adding to the charm is the dog-friendly policy, which is not merely lip service but includes an entire menu designed for the canine connoisseur. It’s a rarity to see such consideration for man's best friend, and it adds an unexpected layer of delight. So, while the Michelin brigade may strut about in their star-studded finery, the Harbour Inn quietly asserts that sometimes the best meal in town is the one served with a smile and a well-kept pint.

The staff were very helpful and spoke to my daughter in a reassuring manner. Knowledge of food content/preparation was good. There were 7 people in our group. There is one area allocated to families with larger tables which made our meal more ralaxed. A good selection of meals at reasonable prices. The quality of food was good, as was the service. The staff having the knowledge re the meals and allergen possibilities is really helpful. This allows a rare opportunity for us to eat out as a family. Thank you 😊

Says on menu stuffing with roast didn't have any. The vegetables were so small a child could have eaten it. One thinnest parsnip you have ever seen. Looked like it had bern boiled. Not great flavours. And cartot thinnest you have ever seen. The bedt part was the side order with it. At least it had some flavour. Overpriced and flavourless. The young lad that bought my dogs over some treats was very polite and friendly. Apart from that wouldn't recommend Sunday roast.

Absolutely fuming we come here every year never any problems but never seen this woman before and she’s the one that was rude and told us to leave.

After waiting an hour for food I got a sandwich that I could’ve made at home in 5 mins before I left. (The wait was down to ordering mussels and the staff did apologise) I get it’s not the most expensive item on the menu and most people probably order seafood but I get better from the local cafe or garden centre for less. What is that side salad too? That’s meant to be a ‘dressed salad’ and it was literally 3 lettuce leaves not even separated, a quarter of a tomato with no dressing. Not forgetting the 1/4 of a slice of cucumber. Was going to give 3 stars because the fish and chips my partner got was apparently rather good but in writing this I just think how mad it is a place that could easily do better actually served a school packed lunch level sandwich for just under £9. I think even at £12 or so, if it had a better side salad, some nicer bread and perhaps a filling that didn’t taste like I could get it all from the Tescos basics range I’d have probably been quite satisfied. Likewise if it was £4-6 and I was in a slightly rundown cafe it would probably have met expectations.

Being in Padstow, I fancied a pint and crab sandwich, which was advertised outside this lovely looking pub, but no prices listed. On ordering at the bar, I was charged £23.10 for the pint of lager and the sandwich. I thought that this was expensive but didn't want to prejudge the food nor cancel my order to save me from embarrassment. In anticipation, I was expecting at least half a dressed crab and a spectacular sandwich. I was so disappointed when my sandwich arrived 😩. There must have been less than a teaspoon of Crab Paste spread in it. NO white crab meat to be seen, served with a few salted Crisps. I must say that I feel completely taken for a fool and conned. It spoiled my visit to Padstow and has played on my mind to publish this review.

The staff are really friendly and although there was a bit of a wait for the food we felt that the service was good overall. The lamb chops were excellent but the chicken curry was poor (it was a bowl of quite tasteless madras style sauce with a few pieces of chicken in it). I would come again, but try to choose wisely off of the menu.

£18 for a crab sandwich.. if there was a tablespoon of crab in my sandwich I would be surprised .. a few crisps and the smallest lettuce leaf and slice of tomato and slither of cucumber ever …🥴

Lovely atmosphere in the pub and a good selection of cask ales. However the price of the food is extortionate for the below average food that you could get for a quarter of the price at spoons. Not great tbh

Start with the positive, nice selection of beers, nice enough for a drink and quite friendly staff. But paid £17 for probably the worst roast dinner I've had since school. One slice of beef, three potatoes, 1/8th of a carrot, 1/8th of a parsnip, one floret of broccoli and gravy (plenty of it, the only positive). And none of it well cooked either. Our complaints were met with disinterest from staff. Not a good experience unfortunately. **Have contacted to complain on response to the useless reply below..will update when I hear back.**

After trying most of the pubs in Padstow, this is our favourite. Warm and friendly staff, great food, awesome atmosphere. Super dog friendly and humans are welcome also. None of the other pubs we tried had all of the elements this place has. All the staff were great but James was so welcoming and good to our dogs. He does have an over inflated opinion on pickled eggs but no one's perfect. Great fish and chips

We returned to padstow like we do every year (all the way from Bude) as it’s a significant place in our journey together, we made the trip specifically for a crab sandwich, ideal we thought with the “premium crab sandwich” board on the corner, popped my head in to see if the dog was allowed and the lad behind the bar was as welcoming and friendly as you could ask for. Good start and credit to him, waited for a short time with a drink until the kitchen was open and ordered the eye watering £16 premium crab sandwich. That’s where the good ended, a premium sandwich I’d expect to be made from a fresh loaf of quality bread(the bakery up the road for example) and something you look at and smile, but no, it’s chucked together with super market medium sliced rubbish and comes with a few crisps and a bit of salad drowning in some sort of paint stripper dressing, the filling….. not quite what was expected either, a frugal smear of crab and plenty of crunchy bits of cartilage and shell to test the fillings out on with no hint of lemon mayo either, as a local I was embarrassed that the visitors get ripped off like this and certainly won’t be returning, the beef dripping chips were good, the garlic bread unfortunately soggy and cold, disappointed to say the least, and not doing padstow justice for the beautiful place that it is.

Great traditional pub with good food and a friendly atmosphere and prices that won't break the bank. Just a short walk from the town's car parks and harbour side.

Lovely pub. Staff were very friendly and accommodating and had a lovely chat. Great atmosphere. Good choice of beer and food was lovely. They were great with our baby, grabbing a high chair immediately. Only downside were nuts served in a glass with is an extremely dangerous for our serious airborne peanut allergy. As we were half way through our food I ask the people next to us to move and thankfully they were very understanding. Not much we can do other than that as it is people’s right but we otherwise would have had to leave. Overall great pub.

Lovely lunch last week. The staff were lovely. It was a cold wet day and they lit the log burner to keep us nice and warm. Definitely worth a visit

Great little pub located in the heart of Padstow’s fishing harbour. The atmosphere was vibrant and the staff couldn’t have been nicer (especially the bar staff Lillie and James!). I recommend visiting on a Thursday night for the open mic :)

Only had a coffee here but the service was friendly with a smile, we sat outside looking over the harbour, it was a good day. Will eat here at some point so will update review to reflect.

From booking this was a great experience. We pre-booked the food for our party of 9 from the Xmas party night menu. The menu was great, it had something for everyone. When we arrived the table was laid out beautifully. All the food arrived as booked, service was friendly and efficient. The dishes looked and tasted delicious (we had the 5 courses). Our congratulations and thanks go to the chef and his team. The evening finished with live music, enjoyed by everyone. We will be back for more please.
