Weymouth's harbourside pubs and restaurants

You’ll find a mixture of traditional pubs as well as modern restaurants and cafés all along the harbourside. If the weather is nice, you’ll want to choose one with outside seating or a terrace overlooking the water.
Catch at the Old Fish Market offers a unique sea-to-plate dining experience. Weyfish provides Catch with the freshest high-quality fish and seafood, sourced directly from Weymouth’s day fishing boats. Its a very popular restaurant, so we highly recommend you book a table to avoid disappointment.
