Harbour Inn, at 24–26 Harbour Street in Folkestone, is known for its mussels and seafood. There are three ways to have the mussels, all served with chunky chips, warm focaccia and grilled lemon. During Folkestone Restaurant Week, from Monday 9 to Friday 13 November 2026, they’re part of a two-course menu for £20.26.
Harbour Inn Mussels
Choose from three, each £22 on the everyday menu:

The King Prawn & Mussels Pappardelle (£28) brings king prawns and St. Austell mussels together in a cream and dill sauce.
More seafood on the menu
The Seafood Platter (£65) is for sharing, with calamari, whitebait, Atlantic prawns, beer-battered fish goujons, wholetail scampi and mussels, plus chunky chips and tartare sauce. There’s also Harbour Inn Fish Pot Pie (£18.5), with smoked mackerel, salmon and haddock under mash and a Gruyère crumb, and Beer-Battered Fish & Chips (£19.5).

Getting here
Harbour Inn is a short walk from the Folkestone Harbour Arm. L&B reopened it in 2017 in the old True Briton, and there’s a harbour view from the terrace. It’s still a pub, so you’re welcome just for a drink, and dogs are welcome in the bar areas.
