Harper’s Steakhouse & Bar Swanwick Marina in Fareham

Very friendly ,good food ,and dogs are allowed 😋

We come here every now and then for dinner with the family (kids call it "The Meat House"). Steaks are great, done exactly as you wish. Reasonably priced - a good steak has its price. Selection of side dishes is good, and there's plenty to chose from if you fancy something else. We were served by the very attentive and friendly server Ashely, great job and really enjoyed it! Definitively recommend it.

Ashley was very attentive . Lovely food and. Great atmosphere .

A nice place for a stake and the staff are perlite and helpful. Good value for money.

Stopped for a few drinks and a meal. Nice and busy. Staff were friendly and the food was nice. One of the team stayed in the rooms and loved it. Thank you.

Hostile and humiliating treatment by the management

We have just stayed for 2 nights in a lovely room, clean and chic. Everyone was super helpful and very nice. Food and drinks were good. Location is ideal, only 5 minutes from the motorway. The surrounding area is also very nice. 10/10

Great burger and chips nice location near the Hamble river

My wife & I stayed 3 mid-week nights last week as we had traveled from Kent for our daughter’s university graduation and for the price can’t fault the place at all. The rooms are very well appointed, nice decor & clean & tidy. We ate at the Steakhouse each evening & for breakfast and really enjoyed the food & drink. All the staff are really friendly & helpful. A special shout out goes to our server at the restaurant, Driton who was brilliant. He was chatty, entertaining & just the right level of attentiveness so we felt valued without being fussed over, also remembering us from the previous evening & asking how the graduation went. This is the 2nd of the Upham Inns we’ve stayed in & will definitely book again!

Excellent food and service every time

My partner and I came to the restaurant on Friday where we were provided with excellent service by Nikki. She catered to all our needs and provided us with everything we wanted all night. The food was amazing and reasonably priced. We will definitely be coming to this restaurant in the future.

Have had family stay in the past, food is always great and service is even better, really enjoy having breakfast there. Well recommended.

Never stayed in the hotel (yet) but always delicious food and exceptional service from all staff members.

Stayed for 2 night beds comfy and good parking. Food in restaurant was excellent. Overall 5stars!

What a find. Great staff, comfortable seating, great food, great atmosphere. Love the place. We will return !!

Breakfast stop. Free parking for an hour. Friendly service. We had avo and egg on toast, berry waffles, and sausage muffin with hash browns. Everyone happy with their food. Recommended for a breakfast stop.

I'm so glad I chose this place, after careful research. The staff are friendly,I was warmly greeted by Steve, who showed me to my room, which was very, clean and a comfy bed. It's ten mins from the train station, there were buses on an hourly basis. Nice walks too. I'll definitely book a return stay. Thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic room for the money. Everyone I dealt with were very polite and friendly. The food however was absolutely awful. I ordered a mega chille dog smoothers in gooey nacho cheese and crispy onions. Sounded delicious. I was horrible. Dry stale bread roll a teaspoon of nacho cheese and this is not me exaggerating. A about 2 tablespoons of chillie. I was unable to find a single crispy onion. Not one. I was revising for an exam in the morning and although I should have I didn’t have the energy to complain. Very poor food. Nice people.

Comfortable beds. Great service and good food. Close to marina so conveniently placed. Easy to park

I recently dined at navigator, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with tasteful décor that set the perfect backdrop for a delightful meal. pete was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure our glasses were always full and that we had everything we needed. Now, let's talk about the food! I ordered the ribeye steak, medium-rare, and it was absolute perfection. The seasoning was spot-on, and the meat was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Every bite was a heavenly experience.

Always a great stay here. Fantastic rooms, good pub food. A little noisy if you're a light sleeper at times but definitely recommend.

Thank you for a lovely meal. My third time at the Harper's steakhouse!! A great spot to take a walk along hamble river and then eat after. Great service from Driton. Thanks again!

Driton was our server. Very friendly and attentive. Food was great. Nice atmosphere. Service was efficient without feeling rushed. Will be back

Awesome place, definitely will stop again. Foods awesome, staff are friendly and helpful very good on prices.

All members of staff are very welcoming and the manager Peter showed us great service.

Came for an evening meal. Food was good and the waiter Olli was lovely! Very attentive and helpful, would definitely come back.

Great meal generous portions lovely date night.

Popped in for a drink. All good didn't use hotel

I arrived with no expectations and was pleasantly surprised from the moment I arrived. Smooth check in, lovely room, nice amenities, great bar and venue. Best English brekkkie I’ve ever had! The manager was a really good host and very good at his job. I will be booking again if I return to Southampton.

My only and minor moan about this place is the rooms are like ovens but the fans are amazing so happy days, the service and food is brilliant pete and his staff are not in your face but there never to far away to assist you. I would 100% recommend this for a night away.

We attended a wedding meal here, and the food was excellent for the amount of people to serve in such short time everyone had something different and it was all cooked to each specification. Would definitely recommend here for food especially if that it’s the service and quality always produced, have visited other Harpers and they fall short of here !

We gathered for a family of 7 meal early evening. Service was friendly polite and efficient. Olly was on the ball ! Food for all was lovely, flavoured and hot. Plates were hot...a pleasure! Thank you Harpers. We will return.

Less than impressed. Food was cold when it came out. Hash browns still frozen. Service slow and poor. Very poor. Neither bar staff seemed to know what was going on. Let alone liased with the kitchen.

Stayed here on the 9th of July for business. Room was nice, however, felt uncomfortable that there was no means of locking it from the inside. Food very mediocre which is a shame as the menu looked amazing, I had the chicken tacos which came out within 30 seconds of ordering them and were basically an Iceland chicken strip and lettuce in a small wrap. Checkout was a nightmare, manager was getting agitated with guests asking for check out, printed bills etc. and people complaining breakfast was the worst breakfast they have ever had. Probably wouldn't stay again, however waitresses and bar staff in the evening were lovely.

Visited for Father’s Day brunch and can’t say a bad word about it. The booking was easy with a £10 deposit per head that was taken off the bill when will settled it. This was our first visit since it was The Navigator. The decor and vibe is lovely, very well done. The staff were family and attentive taking drinks and food orders. The food was lovely and out in good time. The vegetarian breakfast burrito and loaded tater tots were very nice, we would come back just for them!

Lauren was so lovely and welcoming, the service was great !

Had a meal on the way to the ferry, meal very nice, we had fish and chips. I was disappointed as I was looking forward to a fish taco but it was not served on a Sunday.

Loved it. Good value. Great staff and delicious food. We will be back soon.

Nice place to eat, slightly pricey but good food

The meal in parts was good, however the wrong order was served twice meaning we could not all eat together while it was being rectified . It was a fairly expensive meal so probably won't come here again

We stayed in the hotel, had breakfast & some steak for dinner. The room was very well equipped with advanced tech. Immaculate in terms of cleanliness. The food was beautiful. A little pricey but it is a steak house so expected. You get what you pay for and meat was amazing. 2 for 12 on cocktails you can’t go wrong. The breakfast was irresistible smashed avocado & poached egg which was done to perfection. The walk to the harbour was 5 minutes. Amazing scenery when there is a full moon!

Had a lovely meal with the family including 3 under 5’s. Very nice atmosphere, food was beautiful, quick service. Can not fault anything. Will be back again for sure. Thank you

Excellent steak and great value

The room was clean tidy comfortable and stayed for a meal, klaudia & the team was attentive and the food was great Thank you everyone for such a nice time!

We had an amazing experience lovely dinner had the weekday set menu our waiter Driton was lovely and polite made us feel very special definitely recommend

Good menu choice. Staff professional but friendly. Good service. Excellent overall

Very well organized, food was hot, quick and staff were really friendly

Male Waiter was very friendly and looked after us . Food was very good .

Easy check in and friendly staff. Very comfortable room with high standard of extras included.

Great meal for 5 on the Saturday evening, so went back for breakfast on the Sunday. Great value for money and equally superb service on both occasions

Food was good, service by Millie was great! Absolute legend who had a personality!

Nice location and good staff and service. Bit disappointed with the Tacos as was very little pulled pork in them.other meals like Ribs were OK also fish and chips were not that special either. Won't go back as there are other places which are certainly better value and quality.

Great service and food. One of my favourite places for brunch.

Despite the outside of the building being a little dilapidated, the inside of the premise was clean, tidy, and inviting. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Hollie our waitress, despite being young and us coming with an array of deathly serious allergies, did a fantastic job. The food was very good. In fact, it was one of the best burgers I've had. I don't say this lightly, I was pleasantly surprised with just how good. This will become a frequent haunt and was absolutely worth the slightly higher/premium price. Worth arranging and travelling for 100%

Our 1st visit , lovely staff very helpful, nothing was to much trouble , and our meal was great , will visit again

I had the chicken roast. Gosh it was simply the best roast that I have ever eaten!

Food was very good, service let the evening down. Very slow, once Mains were cleared waited over 30 minutes until I flaged someone down for desert menus, after finished waited another 20+ minutes before going to the bar for the bill and pay.

Service was extremely slow. It was very busy so we did allow for that. The caesar salad wasn’t very fresh. The chicken was dried up and the avocado made everything mushy. The fish and chips was disappointing (changed chips for jacket), the jacket potato was done in a microwave very basket and the fish was small and tasteless. Decided against deserts due to the poor service and wait. Generally the food was disappointing and not warm, obviously cooked ahead of time and left on hot plates/under heaters

Very polite and attentive staff, food was excellent.

Spent the night there on st Patrick day,the room was good bed very comfy, plenty of tea and coffee with milk in fridge breakfast was very nice apart from the sausages,staff very good

Best steak I have had for a long time 👍

Absolutely stunning roast dinner and absolute must on a Sunday afternoon. Thanks

Had a lovely meal here Friday night. Meal was lovely and our server Driton was very attentive and polite.

Had my partners birthday meal here and it was fantastic, food was amazing, our waitress Sadie was lovely and attentive. Even went above and beyond to put a candle in his dessert for me, also herself and the other waitresses sang happy birthday. Made it a very special memorable meal and definitely will be back again! So thank you : )

Lovely food and good drinks! Driton was very friendly and helpful! Will definitely return!

We went for bottomless brunch. Good choices available and delicious when they arrived. Exceptional service from Holly who attended to our every need and kept us topped up throughout our 90 minutes.

Food was outstanding and staff was lovely especially driton our server

Nice birthday meal with our son.

Tonight I had the pleasure of dining at Harpers Steakhouse for the first time, and I must say, it was a great experience from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth, friendliness and professionalism. Our server, Holly, truly elevated the dining experience with her exceptional service. Not only was she full of charisma, but her genuine friendliness made us feel right at home. Holly went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our meal was perfect, even coming over to personally apologise when a dish was incorrect. As for the food, it was spectacular. The steak was delicious and cooked to perfection, tender and bursting with flavour, while the sides complemented them perfectly. The atmosphere at Harpers Steakhouse is inviting making it the ideal setting for any occasion, perfect for us when we were celebrating a birthday with friends and family. Overall, my experience at Harpers exceeded expectations, thanks in no small part to the outstanding service provided by Holly. I’ll certainly remember the restaurant name and be returning in the near future.

Great place, friendly staff and very good food will be coming back

Rooms fantastic, got everything in, large smart tv, radio, coffee machine, tea and coffee making facilities, fridge, iron, hairdryer, bathroom accessories i.e shampoo, body wash, hand cream. Nice table and chairs outside. Would highly recommend.
