Harden's says

Sibling to the popular Empire Room at the Royal Harbour Hotel (the team of hotelier James Thomas and chef Craig Mather), this all-day, informal space (with harbour views) pays homage to the Dunkirk evacuation, and has even been decorated in the colours of the Dunkirk Veterans' Association. Thanks to the new Harrison charcoal-fuelled free-standing oven, roasted local fish and meats are the order of the day.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

In a “great” harbourside setting, chef Craig Mather’s collaboration with hotelier James Thomas namechecks the heroic homespun flotilla of the Dunkirk evacuation, also echoed in the decor. The food, mostly sourced within 30 miles of the restaurant, is reliably “solid”, not least the “lovely fresh catch of the day with interesting saucing”.

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).
