About
Harbour House is an all day venue, for every occasion. A waterfront restaurant, bar and terrace set amongst a magnificent backdrop of original features in the oldest surviving dockside 19th century transit sheds in the Southwest.
It has some of the most iconic views the city has to offer and steeped in history. Rumoured to be Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s private boathouse, designed by himself and a little known artist who you might’ve heard of called Banksy had his first exhibition in this very building in the year 2000.
Summertime is where Harbour House blossoms!
With an open plan venue and a capacity to house 200 guests and a sun drenched waterfront terrace open every day, it is the perfect place to celebrate during the summer months.
The restaurant sets the scene for a more intimate celebration with the space to seat parties of 10 - 100. Seasonal set menus are the tastiest accompaniment from £35 per head showcasing their ‘Best of the Southwest’ suppliers and produce. This area can be transformed into an energetic, partying paradise for private events with space for a dance floor, live bands and DJ’s.
The bar area, recently crowned ‘Best Bar’ at the 2023 Bristol Life Awards, is ideal for that sociable gathering with room to stand and seat for up to 80+ guests plus access to our waterfront terrace. Buffet menus starting from £25pp and canapé packages from £10pp, it’s the idyllic place for a birthday, networking event or wedding reception.
Max Group size up to 200 standing / up to 120 seated
