Casual seafood spot in Bray harbor serving fresh fish, crab sandwiches, and seafood chowder. Simple preparation highlighting quality local catch in seaside setting.
The Harbour Bar serves fresh, simply prepared seafood from a casual spot overlooking Bray's harbour in Co. Wicklow, with crab sandwiches and seafood chowder built around the day's local catch. The focus is on straightforward preparation that lets the quality of the seafood speak for itself rather than elaborate technique, in keeping with its casual, seaside setting. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, popular with walkers along the Bray seafront and visitors combining a meal with the nearby cliff walk to Greystones. There is no significant wine list; the drinks side is limited and secondary to the food. It operates on a walk-in basis with no reservation system.
