Café Review - Harbour Bar
Monday, 26 November 2007
Bovril and crackers on a Sunday morning with the weather whistling past outside has to be the choice. Or for you veggie types, a warming glass of Ovaltine. Oh all right then, go the whole hog and have a knickerbocker glory, you owe it to yourself.

Yes, the Harbour Bar is the place we’re talking about. That palace of Fifties indulgence sits proudly facing the harbour, folding doors either flung open to the beach or shut snug against the elements.

Build the anticipation and treat yourself. Get yourself ensconced in a corner, sit back and drink it all in. Under the brash lighting it’s all bright yellows, reds and chrome, with mirrors and stacked fancy glasses bouncing the light around.

There’s Bovril to be had alright, and garish milkshakes and peaches from a giant tin and long silver spoons and chocolate and nuts and syrup. All the seaside things you miss because this is the only proper parlour left. It’s the perfect way to wind down the weekend: the hell with healthy eating, just order the dish with the daftest, fanciest name, get your wafer and dib in. It tastes all the better when you know you shouldn’t.

Harbour Bar, 1 Sandside, Scarborough. Tel 01723 373662
