Harden's survey result
Summary
This “great seafood restaurant, on a pontoon on the harbour” at Bembridge, serves only fresh local lobster, crab and prawns in season, with some mussels and clams. Now in its third decade, it is run by Graham Henley, a second-generation fisherman and former lifeboat crewman. With only five tables, booking is essential – but you can buy crustacea to take home.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
