This is an awesome place to hang out during less summer time weather. We hung out on the patio next to water. The draft beers are cold and waitstaff friendly and fast. Good place to chill and relax.

Our new fave hang out spot! Ask for Amy, she’s is phenomenal! Food is so on point. Can’t go wrong here! Would give more stars if it allowed me too!

Man I'm kicking myself for not get photos, but I'll be back. This place was freaking awesome, reminds me of an older dive bar, our server was amazing, not only did she have to take care of us, but was running the bar at the same time. The food was excellent, the blackened fish bites are where it's at. Definitely will be back with my son.

I don't know how they do it, but Harps has the best grilled fish sandwich in the world, bar none. The taste is addicticting. Just finished one and I want two more. The herb toasted Potatoes are decadent healthy and tasty at the same time. No We've been coming here for decades and it always surpasses expectations.

Miranda provided excellence Customer Service. I usually just stop by harps for a beer. Today is Thursday and it’s burger day. Ordered the backyard, burger rare and french fries crispy extra done. Came out exactly as ordered it and it was wonderful. Their burgers are handmade daily and never frozen. Excellent burgers, recently priced

The food is great and the beer is cold. I have always received great service. Happy hour and daily specials along with weekend live music make this one of my favorite stops. I love coming here, sitting out on the covered deck out front and watching the people and cars go by.
