Visited the Harbour Bistro today for a meal. One of my daughters who is 3, has a genetic condition called PKU, meaning she can't eat protein which is in most goods. I had ordered her lettuce, tomatoes and chips explaining that she couldn't eat protein. When the plate landed for her, the chef had sent a message with the waitress to ask if there was anything else that he could do for her as he felt it wasn't substantial enough. When I explained it all and how limited her diet was she went out of her way to find something more for my daughter. Low and behold a plate of mushroons and beetroot appeared.
Never have we received this service regarding her dietary requirements before. Also, he did invite us to give them a heads up the next time we were coming and they would have something ready for her. Unfortunately, I did forget to ask him his name on the way out.
To say the chef, along with the waitress went above and beyond for us is an understatement.
Thanking you all once again. Could not recommend the Harbour highly enough.#pkufriendly
Such a great wee bar!! Its like a home from home and you couldn't get better than Willie behind that bar!! Was so kind to us all night and went out of his way to make sure we had a taxi home! Highly recommend a visit... best Guinness about!
I’ve been a chef for 25 years, this was one of the best restaurant experiences of my life !!! I could talk for an hour about this place but believe me if you’re in Portrush you must dine here.
I have had so many nights fun down in the Harbour and I recommend it to everyone who is looking for a good night out. From whenever you step in through the door until your ready to leave, Willie and staff will look after you and make sure you have plenty to drink! :D
Went to the Bistro Sunday evening had a table booked at 7 but ended up been 20 mins late but the guy at the door was more than nice and we were still allowed a table and only waited about 15 mins . Service was good food was lovely . Definitely be back. Highly recommend bar upstairs great music and atmosphere.

Fantastic food was worth the trip had a we drink in the upstairs bar and then straight in for some food which was great 👍🏻
Absolutely fantastic evening here Saturday night. The most FANTASTIC pint of Guinness. The fabulous Willie showed us the secrets to perfect pint as well as his collection of old Bushmill whiskeys! Fire was on which created an extremely cosy atmosphere. Great little pub.
A very good bar ! Drink top live top people top !
Went over for the NW200, had an absolute blast in The Harbour Bar, great staff, great food, great atmosphere. Definitely the place to be in Portrush. And, of course, not forgetting Willie, the host with the most - the man's a LEGEND!!!!
The service and friendliness of the staff is excellent and the food is always excellent.
Willie Gregg is always so courteous and welcoming.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Harbour Bistro, and I must say, the food was excellent! I opted for the Chicken Arizona, and it was a true delight – flavorful and cooked to perfection. The overall dining experience was great, but I did notice a couple of hiccups.
While the majority of the menu items were delightful, I must caution you about a few dishes that may be overly sweet or sickly. It's best to inquire with the server if you have any concerns about sweetness levels before ordering.
One dish that didn't quite meet my expectations was the Cheese Fondue Onion Rings. Don't get me wrong; they were tasty, but they were surprisingly doughy, almost cake-like in texture. It was an unexpected twist that didn't quite work for me.
However, despite these minor flaws, I can't ignore the fact that the food, in general, was top-notch. The Chicken Arizona and other dishes we tried were delicious, and the flavors were well-balanced.
My wife and I met Ryan when trying to decide on a place to eat on our night in Portrush. We were standing at the bottom of the Ramone tower... He brought us right up where he pulled menus for us and told us he worked down at the Harbor Bistro. We looked at the menus, but said we'd follow him after perusing menus.
We followed him to the restaurant (in the rain). He promptly sat us one we walked through the door. The servers and staff were amazing and the food was unbelievably tasty. I've never had a seafood meal that tasted like the Thermadore- It was creamy and smooth with an exceptionally rich flavor. I am very thankful to have met Ryan and followed him here. I will definitely plan this as a stop on my next Ireland visit when we bring our children, hopefully in a few years.
We had the Cheese Fondue, Filet, Thermador, and a chocolate brownie cheesecake to finish us off... Everything was great.
Cheers, Ryan and the staff at the Harbour Bistro.
4 of us dined here today from starter to main to desert everything was perfect vegan dish , burger , fish pie & steak all gorgeous food .The staff were absolutely lovely the place was v clean and had a great atmosphere. We will definitely visit again and tell others .Thank you fir a lovely evening .
Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was great. Watch the sun set, then come here for a pint and a burger!
Great Bistro, a very detailed Menu that had something for everyone. Three of us opted for steak and the fourth ordered cid and chips. All dishes served by very pleasant staff, in particular Nicola, who checked we had everything we asked for. Highly recommend this Bistro.
Very busy little spot but food was amazing 👏
Decided to eat here for my wife's birthday, food was fantastic, steak was cooked to perfection. The banoffee was huge and delicious.
A really superb restaurant. The food was good bistro fare but cooked very well and in generous proportions. The service however was amazing, I could have sat and watched it all evening. The place was heaving, but there was a flow to it that made it look effortless. Everybody working the space not just a table, with just the right speed and attentiveness. Worth every penny.
Always a good atmosphere, very popular in Portrush! Good service and portions. Desserts are good value! Always give you plenty for sharing!
Went as a group of 9 tonight and the service was fantastic. Ordered separately via QR code and all of the food arrived together very quickly. All the food was lovely, portions were big and the staff were very helpful.
Just the perfect spot for good reliable food and great prices. The waitress was amazing and get service skills were spot on
The Pub, Bistro and Gin Bar are all together, We grab a drink at the bar and meet Willie, to say hes a character is an understatement . We put are name in for a table and decided to wait in the Gin bar upstairs, nice staff had a great gin and tonic, that my wife drank most of. The restaurant is crowded, noisy and a little dated with an open kitchen. I loved it! The food was very good , so was the service and we sat right by the kitchen it was entertaining. Willie stop by during our meal to check on us. He said hes not the owner but want to make sure we were well taking care of. we were. Thanks
When we are back to Portrush we are Def coming back!! Food was served within minutes, super delicious, huge portions, staff was very quick and friendly, nothing was forgotten, main dish again super delicious, huge portions....and the desserts...I couldn't make up my mind!!! Best place I have while on Holidays!!

This was our third visit to the Harbour Bistro. The service was excellent. We waited for our table next door in a fabulous little pub with open fire and friendly staff and customers. Our food was lovely with great choices. The prawn starter is now a firm favourite. All main courses were excellent. Staff were very attentive and made our birthday girl feel very welcome.
We had the most amazing Sunday lunch yesterday at the harbour bistro. We had heard how good it was from friends and the experience we had was better than you could ever imagine. The menu options are fantastic and the food is really outstanding! The icing on the cake for the lunch was how we were looked after the by the staff, they were excellent in a very busy environment. The Sunday didn’t end there, we availed of the entertainment that was on offer ( 3 different acts) and ended up staying most of the evening! A really super day well done to everyone at the harbour complex!
