The Harp

Fairwell old friend, 26 years of beers, friends and memories are what filled the seats of this Port Credit staple last night on its final evening before closing it’s doors forever.
Known for it’s atmosphere, rustic local appeal and of course those Sunday Prime rib dinners, it’s a location that this Unilocal CM wishes he could have spent more time in before last night.
There isn’t much more to say about our ‘beerly’-departed friend, other than to thank it for years of service to the Mississauga/​Port Credit area and wish it’s staff and management all the best as they move on to bigger and better things.
For the last time, let’s play The Harp out!
Sláinte

We live very close to the Harp and have always gone here with family to eat at dinner, the food is great. A night they have live bands. In the afternoon it’s a great place to go after work or with your kids for a quiet family outing. I don’t recommend it for kids after dinner as it is a bar, but in the early afternoon we have always gone and the staff are great with to our kids and make them laugh all the time.

Prime Rib Dinner Sunday night
Very friendly service
Nice little Irish Pub in Port Credit
Try the steak & kidney pie too

The harp isn’t bad. I’ve been just twice. Both times it has been a decent experience.
The décor is nothing fancy, but it does what it needs to. It’s got a classic pub theme and decoration. I’m fine with that. It’s nothing flashy, that’s okay.
The food is decent too. I’ve had the burger. and the wings. The wings were good and meaty, I’d have them again. The burger was fine too. I’d eat here again for sure, lunch not dinner.
The service is just okay. I’ve had pretty slow service here but I wasn’t in a hurry so it was fine. I find it odd that it has security on busy nights. They stand outside with clickers and check id’s. This isn’t really the kind of place that needs that sort of thing, so it just weirds me out.
Give the pub a chance if you’re in the mood for some pub fare that’s pretty good.

I’ve never been disappointed by the meals I have had here. Solid menu, friendly staff, bar atmosphere. Will for sure go back.

Since moving to the area the Harp has become a family favorite. Wing night especially (try the Fire N Ice!). Large meaty wings (no breading) and lots of choices of sauces. My personal fave is the Hoagie but be sure you are starving. Seriously generous serving of meat in this sandwich!
Its a no fuss no muss pub but the staff are super friendly and the food is just consistantly good! Have live music weeknights and weekends too.

Wings. Live bands. Beer! Service is spotty. One night it was great, another, there must have been only the one waitress for the entire pub. The honey garlic wings are great, but it’s the sweet chilli wings kick it up to awesome. Keith’s served. The Harp is a standard, no fuss pub. ’nuff said.

Great food for a great value.
I had steak and kidney pot pie and it was great.

After Gord and I left The Pump House, we crossed the street and checked out The Harp Pub. We were getting hungry so ordered wings.
I got hot wings. Thankfully they weren’t breaded (I hate breaded wings!) and the hot spice wasn’t too overpowering (I’d consider it to be medium). They were big too. I really liked them and would get them there again. They come with celery and carrots and blue cheese. I don’t like celery or blue cheese so our server got me extra carrots and Ranch Dressing.
Gord ordered dry Cajun rub (he doesn’t like gunky wings). He had asked for them to be lightly dusted and they were … there wasn’t much of a kick to them.
It’s a cute pub. It was fairly quiet when we got there but started filling up quickly.
I’d definitely stop in again when I’m in Port Credit and hungry for wings and a cold beer.

I have never eaten there but I will echo the comments on the atmosphere.
Good selection of beverages, the bands can be off the charts sometimes. Seen some really, really good R&B there.
The crowd is from 20ish all the way to 70ish. Something there for everyone.

As a guest of mysterious MIssissagua I ventured into this little watering hole expecting a quiet little Irish pub with some celtic music and a shepard pie special. It’s more of neighborhood sports bar with a couple friendly bartendresses, interesting regulars and a sprinkling of some hot ladies.
After watching a little CFL on the tele, the sound went down and the 3 man band started up. It was mix between country & classic rock. Clever tone play … opened w chris isaac which was pretty good.
Now my buddy ordered the Widow Maker II! This was HOT HOT HOT. He was required too sign a waiver and after the corp attys reviewed it he had a 10 ridiculous wings in front of him. He must have been so happy that after 3 wings he was crying. haha. I tried a couple and it took a long time for the burn to leave my esophagus.
Stop by to see Natalie and share a Porn Star shot !

the Harp is a good spot to grab a drink with friends in port credit.
Its always pretty busy and there’s a live band on weekends.
The food is ok, nothing special — with the exception being the nachos which are great! they are huge, have lots of toppings and are made on miss. vicky style chips (not nacho chips).

Great local bands, good beers, baby boomer/​cougarville.
This place is a-​ok. The clientele is a little mixed, but its core is definitely a baby boomer crowd who have been aging with the bar itself. You’ll find all your favorite Canadian and Irish common beers on tap. The place is a little dark and cavernous, which can help you in forgetting the time passing, but the bar food here isn’t great. However, there’s a great hamburger joint just down the block waiting for you when you come spilling out after last call.
The music is mixed, but some of the clutch mainstays are incredibly talented musicians. I forget the name of the band, but the one that’s led by trumpeter/​singer Joey Reynolds is always a favorite, specializing in funk/​blues/​jazz. I’ve never seen them play without filling the house and getting people dancing (which, in an «Irish» pub, isn’t hard).
