Just after 1pm. Busy but not heaving. I sat inside and watched a procession of tourists like myself order pricey drinks.

Early evening and very busy inside so we sat outside.

The bar was empty - people probably put off by the reserved table signs, though if you read then, as I did, you'd see they were all free until the early evening. I did feel a bit smug, yes. Only place that does Otter in Lyme now.
Otter - Ale | 4.30 |  | Slightly syrupy but nice sweet maly underneath. Perhaps a touch too cold |

Bustling with lunchtime folk. One bloke was having a jacket potato and crisps; so potato and, er potato. I sat and wrote postcards.

Had to pop in before leaving Lyme. Late afternoon and fairly busy.
Otter - Bitter | 3.60 |  | Quite fresh. Weirdly lager-like. |

The Harbour Inn doesn't have the most character but the beer is consistently good in my experience.
Otter - Bitter | 3.60 |  | Fresh orangy goodness |

A late night visit. The Royal Standard next door had karaoke. As we sat in the beach garden of the Harbour we swayed to to tuneless renditions of timeless classics.
Otter - Bitter | 3.60 |  | Touch too cold but I liked it. |

The beach front seating was busy due to the good weather so I sat inside (where you get served in a glass pint glass). I got a nice view out through the doors to the sea and Golden Cap in the background.
Otter - Bitter | 3.60 |  | Really good condition with lovely orange flavours |
