About

Harry's Bar & Dining Room is always ready and waiting to welcome you in with open arms, and you'll never struggle to find something delicious on the menu. You'll find great options for lunch, supper, bar food and tapas, all served by a wonderful team and chosen personally by Harry. Don't forget to order some delicious cocktails with your meal, such as the Lemon Drop Martini with Absolut Vodka, Martini Bianco, Limoncello shaken with sugar syrup and served with a sugar rim, or the Negroni with Beefeater Gin, Campari and Martini Rosso over ice.

To begin your meal, enjoy a selection of starters, including the fresh asparagus with poached hens egg and hollandaise sauce, or the Scottish smoked salmon with capers, onion and lemon. Other options include the parma ham and buffalo mozzarella with tomato and basil salsa, or beetroot and apple salad with toasted pistachios and a honey mustard dressing. Next up are the mains, and you're spoilt for choice. The risotto verde is made with fresh asparagus, lemon and garden peas, whilst the creamy linguine is served with prosciutto, wilted baby spinach and a carbonara sauce. Other options include the pan fried hake fillet with sauce vierge, baby new potatoes and rocket leaves, and a Mediterranean tart with melted mozzarella, courgette, aubergine, red pepper, roast vine cherry tomatoes and served with a rocket salad and pesto dressing.

For an after dinner cocktail, try the Mexican Rose Martini made with Tequila Rose and Olmeca Silver, shaken with double cream and layered with grenadine. For pudding, try the plum and almond crumble with fresh custard, a raspberry and white chocolate brulee cheesecake, or Belgian chocolate truffle cake with a light chocolate sauce.

Going back there soon!

I have been going to Harry's for many years and the quality of the food which, is straightforward and very well made indeed, is presented in a friendly and professional manner. Above all it is very good value for money and the staff are a joy to deal with.

Nice food, good service, lively atmosphere and many reasonably priced wines. Only small negative would be that too many dishes contained mushrooms in some form (I loath mushrooms!).

Enjoyable lunch at Harry's Bar, livened up by a charming waitress ensuring that everything was to our liking. Food was good. Nice wine list with some interesting choices by the glass. Room was a bit too warm though. Nice experience.

Had a really excellent lunch here. I'd asked for a quiet table as had a lot to discuss with my guests and was delighted to be guided to an alcove which was prefect. The food was very good- I had goats cheese starter (which whilst not very strong was delicious) and the steak which was really excellent (as was the accompanying peppercorn sauce) and bordering on melt in the mouth standard. Service was very good if a only a notch off excellent. To a degree, this may have been because we were just out of way. Three of us had bread/olive oil, a two course meal, plus sparkling water, non-alcoholic cocktails and coffee for £120 inc service. I'll definitely be going again

I have lunched here a few times and have always been very pleased with the result. They offer both a full a la carte restaurant menu and also a shorter bar menu. We always make clear which we need when booking the table. The welcome is always warm and they have some very quiet alcoves if you want that business lunch that might not be overheard at the next table. The wine list, as you may expect, is very impressive and reasonably priced bearing in mind the City location. It can get expensive, however, if you go for glasses of wine rather than a bottle. I have developed a real penchant for their scrambled eggs and smoke salmon. The eggs taste wonderful and are clearly freshly prepared. My lunching partner will usually go for the very attractive prawn and avocado salad. Both meals accompanied by a bowl of chips make a perfect business lunch. Although tucked away in Abchurch Yard it is well worth seeking out and giving them a visit. You will be pleasantly surprised and certainly not regret your decision.
