Harbour Inn

Harbour Inn is a pub and seafood restaurant located at Blackshore Quay along the River Blyth, with traditional pub spaces and dining areas that overlook the water. The Grade II listed building serves both casual drinkers and restaurant customers in separate sections.

The building was known as the Fishing Buss from 1823 to 1874 and later operated as the Harbour of Refuge between 1891 and 1900. These name changes mark different periods in the establishment's history.

The building maintains its connection to the fishing community through fresh seafood offerings and displays of maritime objects collected over time. These items tell stories of the area's relationship with the water and boats.

Restaurant seating operates on a walk-in basis without advance reservations required, making it easy to drop in whenever you visit. Dogs are allowed in certain sections of the establishment.

The riverside setting is prone to flooding during winter months, with historical water level markers inside that record past flood events. These marks show how high water has risen in previous years.
