Loved the decor and the meal was tasty and served by friendly staff. However, it was extremely noisy and the wait between courses became longer as the evening went on meaning we left in a bit of a rush to get to our booked entertainment.

My niece and her family were visiting so we took them there. They loved it- good food amd great ambience. Food was nice overall with an excellent steak and ice cream but the burgers were underwhelming. My niece ordered ravioli which she liked. Puddings were good with the stout cake being excellent. Would recommend - try and go for the steak.

Been twice in the last week. Had to go back a second time as the experience was so good the first time. The second time did not disappoint. First time was a date, second was with Mum, Nan and Son. Everybody loved Harry's. The food is great, staff are very attentive without interrupting your evening. Nothing is too much trouble. Its a very popular restaurant for good reason. Faultless experience start to finish. looking forward to booking the function room with friends very soon. My new favourite spot to eat.
