Reviews Summary
Harbour View is celebrated for its picturesque harbor views, friendly and attentive staff, and flavorful food, particularly its seafood and breakfasts. While many praise the overall experience and value, a few diners have noted inconsistencies in dish preparation and presentation.
"Really nice Valentine lunch at the Harbour View. The venue is in the Main Street overlooking the harbour and marina and is nicely appointed with a good menu selection, the service was friendly and welcoming, the food was really tasty!
Would recommend will look to come again next we are in Falmouth"

"Arrived at midday to an empty restaurant and ordered the small F&Cs and a beer, at a nice table with pleasant view of the berths. Food arrived, but not as described: no peas that were 'crushed' nor lemon? Then finding more than half the chips were dregs of the fryer/chipbag, not rustic. With no question on whether my meal was ok, I left after finishing the beer and gave the person in charge the chip bits advising they should not have left the kitchen and declining an offer of free beer or coffee; its about the experience not freebies. My experience ranked as per the images and it could have easily been more pleasant."

"It was early morning Sunday and no surprise was fairly quiet but suited me. Nice view of parts of the harbour but that's not why I am here. The Cornish breakfast I had was so well presented and superbly cooked I had to give these guys a big thumbs up. The young lady serving was delightful and very helpful. Altogether a very nice experience, keep it up and you will do well I am sure.🥰"
