The Haven Bar & Restaurant

The food was fantastic! The places is great, view of the marina and great decode made it a wonderful afternoon. Unfortunately, the experience was let down by the service. It took a long time to get served, eventually had to call someone over to take an order. I had to order drinks from the bar myself. Then after three attempts to get attention for the bill, I eventually walked over to ask or it, that too was ignored, so finally just walked up and told them I want to pay. I appreciate they were busy, but just because the table we were sitting at wasn’t in the main restaurant, doesn’t mean we deserve any less attention. A paying customer, whether sitting in the main restaurant or the bar area, they are all the same. The menu was the same, the drinks were the same, and the money you charge and customer pay is the same, so please treat them the same.

It was a really lovely meal with a lovely view and very lively atmosphere but they don't do Olive oil and the waiter we asked was almost proud of it and his answer as to why was "on 364 days we are never asked for it" It was verging on an attitude! But the waitress was amazing and super helpful as one of us was on a funky vegan raw diet!

Don't be deterred by the seemingly 'industrial estate ' setting. This well-appointed first floor bar/ restaurant is set in a busy marina with many tables, inside and out, having pleasant views thereover. Extensive, reasonably priced menu with tasty, well-prepared food served by friendly and attentive staff. Very pleasant riverside walk closeby to walk off over indulgence!

Lovely place with very nice décor and a fantastic outside area / deck - imagine this is stunning in evening. The place is up a set of stairs (not sure if there is accessible access) - we only got coffees on a walk around the harbour / marina but they were very nice, lovely service and clean. it was just getting busy and had a nice atmosphere - is also dog friendly.

Great dinner for 2 on a Tuesday evening. Lovely atmosphere and view. The restaurant is actually in the marina, on the first floor, with a bar deck. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had the hot and cold salmon starter for 2 people, which came with chunky bread. What would have been nicer would have been if the butter was in a bowl rather than putting 6 little packs of anchor butter on the table. We both had the dressed crab for our mains at £28 each. It turns out the crab was undressed, but was absolutely lovely. It came with fries and salad. All in all with 2 bottles of wine we spent £170, including the tip, but the 2 bottles of wine we chose were £38 each, but there were much cheaper options. I would go back if we visit Lymington again.
