The view is brilliant outside, a nice play to enjoy the sun set. But it always seems to be understaffed, wait times at the bar are always long and plates are never cleared after eating. Fish and Chips was very tasty!

Excellent venue. I'm a Bristolian now living in Australia. Also a connoisseur, of Fish 'n chips, worldwide. I've travelled in USA, Hawaii, Barbados, South America, England, France, Spain and Morroco. I've tried F & C, everywhere. The Little Harp, takes some beating! Friendly staff, the manager, Steph', and Lisa, nothing was a problem. I'm coming back to England in 2026, and this place will be definitely on my itinerary. We'll done, keep up the good work. Cheers, Terry Whitchurch.

The food is better than the average chain pub. The big, big problem is the wait for food. It is understaffed

It is a nice and very popular place right next to the beach, especially on a sunny day or a nice evening. It is a great place to watch the sun set, it can get very busy which causes long queues at the bar. They have an outside bar, but I have only ever seen it open a small number of times, this may be due to staff numbers as there is often a table or two outside filled with used glasses when I is busy. We have eaten there a couple of times (different management each time), and he food was OK, certainly nothing bad, but when there is a nice sunset and you have a window seat in te restaurant it adds a real extra something.

Saturday night had table booked for special occasion. 10 minute wait to be seated and told to wait as table service. After 35 minutes asked to order and told we should order at the bar, explained we were told table service then finally a very overworked young man profusely apologised as he was the only person taking table bookings. A further 35 minutes and starters arrived - cheese sharer, crispy squid and creamy mushrooms all ok. Followed by very average mains, fish ok chips cold, hard pastry on mushroom and ale pie, burger ok. £118 later needless to say we won't be going again.

Visited with my mum & 2 sisters for sunday lunch. Food came out warm & poor quality (frozen roast potatoes) Told staff but nothing done. Understaffed, table service poor, had to go to the bar ourselves for drinks as wait too long.

Waited in queue at the bar for half an hour and when I got to the bar I was told no food order to be taken. Poor customer service and pointless buying a drink when we only can to eat. Do not go here

£42 for x 2 burgers and 2 alcoholic drinks. Ate in the bar area as no tables available. Staff collected glasses but never once did we see anyone wipe a table. Our wobbly table was a sticky mess so we washed it with a napkin and water and the napkin was filthy. Food arrived and the waitress asked if we wanted any sauces to which we asked for ketchup and salt. This never materialised and nobody was available to ask so we ate food before it got cold. The 'cheeseburger' had very little cheese which could barely be seen as it had melted away and the bacon was mostly rind, bit very many chips either and a salad garnish wouldn't go amiss. Would not recommend.

You only get one star because of your location. But honestly the atmosphere, lack of staff clearing away plates, average food, poor service and not keeping the outside area clean. It just let's you down. This place with its views could be amazing, you just need to improve your service, food and overall standards of the place.

Reserved an outside booth online, phoned to try and speak to someone to confirm, no answer, left voicemail and got no call back, good start. Only wish I could review the food. Arrived, went to an outside booth, but in all honesty only think it was only free due to being full of old plates, glasses etc. That's fine, after 5 mins asked someone if they could clear for us, nothing. Then asked somone else 10 minutes later. Yet again, nothing. Waited a further 10 minutes and gave up and just left. Brilliant service.

Fish and chips were poor, would get better quality fish by casting a rod in to the marine lake. Had to search far and wide for cutlery and condiments to be able to actually eat the meal. Ice cream must’ve been served by a toddler because they gave us a portion that wouldn’t have even satisfied a 3 year old. Paid for cookie, OH WAIT, no cookie, should’ve just gone to the coop for a cornetto (I don’t even like cornettos). Views are good, anything other than a pint….is not

Edit i have emailed but unfortunately no reply since. Definitely don't go here for food Not the best food for the price but edible. mash potato and pie was clearly microwaved, for the price we payed absolutely ridiculous wasn't much of a meal barely filled a hole. Could've gotten better at a takeaway for half the price. Won't be returning unfortunately. I saw others complain that there food was cold.

Great location, lovely pub but service is sooooooo slow. Location of the pub is amazing - food is typical pub food so cannot complain. However, every time we come the service is just so slow. One person behind the bar seems standard and no sense of urgency - it is the only downside to what should be a great experience. Avoid if in a rush.

Attending with a friend for dinner afer swimming in the lake, we needed some nice hot food to warm us up. I didn't get the herb-roasted carrots and my friend didn't get her carrot crisps as stated on the menu (didn't realise this until afterwards when i looked at the menu again). I will admit the food was hot and we did eat it as we were so hungry! The food had been clearly microwaved. Paid almost £40 for 2 meals and 2 lattes, complete waste of money and should have asked for a refund!! Unfortunately we just wanted to get out quick but we definitely won't be returning. Very dissapointed!! :(

Booked a table for Easter Monday , we had cod & chips which was average, chips not particularly hot.when my husbands drink was served, the waiter said they had go down stairs to get my rose, it never came. When the waitress served our meal, I said not had my drink yet. So she went off, her excuse was when she came back, they didn’t know who it was for. When the bill came what a shock, a small rose £9.69. It didn’t even look a small one….Staff not particularly good. I wouldn’t recommend the place.

This place was unable to offer us a vegetarian food option. Only two veg options were listed on their menu (no vegan) and both were unaccountably 'off' (one because it was a Sunday!). When I pointed out to the staff member who was attempting to serve me (it took him at least five minutes to determine that there was no veg offer) that at least 12% of the UK population are professed vegetarians and that it was therefore reasonable to assume that around that percentage of those stepping through the doors were going to require a veg offer I got blank stares and a interjection from a colleague that "it's not his fault"! Talk about missing the point - and I wasn't being aggressive, just pointing out some facts. Here's a tip, Little Harp - 12% and growing... buck up your thinking, sort out your menu and be ready for the future.

The food was fairly priced for pub food but the quality of the food was very poor. The staff although polite wasn't very attentive. By the time we were given knives and forks our food had been served and was almost cold. The atmosphere was lovely, as was the layout. It was quite lively but in a good way. Everyone that was drinking seemed to be having a good time but as a restaurant I personally wouldn't recommend it.

Arrived with family for a bite to eat on Saturday 29th March as we arranged a bit of an early Mother’s Day get together and first visit to Clevedon. It was quite busy so we decided to sit outside. My son ordered a sandwich at the bar as he was advised that no main meals were being served outside. Fair enough! I stood in the queue and watched a gent order a sandwich for outside and some drinks. I went to place an order and was told that there was a wait for 50 minutes for main meals and then told when I gave my table number that no sandwiches( not a main meal) were being served outside despite what had just happened?… I indicated my son had just ordered at the bar for an outside table. What a cluster…. Never mind my daughter, her partner, my wife, my elderly mother in law and I didn’t make any order and my son had a refund as we didn’t want to watch him eating a meal we couldn’t join him with. Now I know it can be stressful and busy in the catering trade but this was just a very poor experience. A real shame as we were really hungry and loved the area. We ate elsewhere in a local pub where we received a great welcome. Every cloud as they say.

Had a table booked for Sunday lunchtime with friends. Ordered roasts and that was where the disappointment started. Two of the four were cold and also having re read the menu, missing items/ not as described. Having sent one roast back, it was returned within less than a minute at more or less the same temperature, seems that not even the microwave could help it. By this point another one of the roasts was discovered to be less than warm and as such both plates were sent back and due to clearly not being able to get hot food we asked not to have them replaced. The rump that was supposed to be served pink was grey and lifeless but with griddle marks from an attempted heating. The seasonal greens were limp savoy cabbage only and the roasted root vegetables missing. The manager let us know they would remove those from the bill however, when the bill eventually came, around 45 minutes following people finishing eating and waiting for the table to be cleared, the items were still on it. We had to ask for them to be removed which was pretty disappointing. Upon speaking with the person presumed to be the manager before leaving frankly, did not get left with any feeling of genuine sorrow which sadly left a bitter taste in the mouth. Would not recommend this establishment and will certainly not be returning.

Sorry but food was nowhere near as good as we have had before. Despite a low number of guests that day the time to get served or even acknowledged was far too long. A pleasant table, eventually, however the fish was terribly overcooked, peas were cold, bread was stale and double charged, Not sure the apple tart was cooked, certainly was unpalatable, but the custard was fine, As usual the beers were excellent, what a shame, the Royal Inn just up the road at Portishead will now get our custom,

Thought this place had been closed but was open. Went in for drinks to be told sternly you can only drink in the bar area! I had coffee so ventured to the coffee machine and was told to make it quick then come back to the bar as that area was for diners only. The place was empty. Staff attitude to all the customers we saw in there was awful. Not surprised if it does close or is closing, paying customers should be treated with respect.

We didn't stay as guests but just a large party for the Sunday roast. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The roast was excellent and extras like cauliflower cheese were offered. The hotel is pleasantly decorated and feels homely so was just right as part of the weekend's celebrations for our daughter's 40th birthday.
