Harbour Bar & Fish House Changes Name to Harbour House Pub

Decatur Metro | December 31, 2013

Sean Keenan, the owner of Harbour Bar & Fish House on Church Street tells DM that the restaurant is changing its name and it’s focus a bit to respond to customer feedback.  Here’s the announcement.

And check out the new menu HERE.

WE LISTENED Our team at Harbour took our customers’ compliments, suggestions and requests, and found a common thread: You would like some options besides seafood!

NEW MENU Chef Christian Speigal introduces our signature house ground beef and house smoked meats. Our organic beef comes from the grass-fed cows of Brasstown Farms, born, raised and fed on organic grass creating a flavorful beef like no other! A great advantage to house ground beef is that Chef Christian selects the single piece of meat to grind, and knows its quality and origination. In our case, our house ground blend includes brisket and chuck beef. In addition to the best burgers, we also make our own sausages and house smoked pastrami.

SIGNATURE SEAFOOD Your favorite ocean items will be on the menu, and our locally sourced, organic meats will serve as complimentary ingredients to some favorites such as our Shrimp, Andouille and Grits.

LOCAL BREWS As a small, independent business, we feel it is important to support other local and independent businesses whenever possible. In addition to our food items, we use that same philosophy choosing our draft beer selection. We carry Georgia Craft Beers including Wild Heaven, Blue Tarp, Sweetwater, Terrapin, Monday Night Brewing, Jailhouse, and Red Hare.

LIVE MUSIC Local Musicians will provide energetic entertainment with full bands to play after dinner on Friday and Saturday nights.

Atlanta Food Critics Gang Up and Love On Decatur

Decatur Metro | December 31, 2013

Geez…remember when there was an actual conversation about the best food neighborhood in the Atlanta metro?  Apparently that battle has been waged and won if you ask Atlanta food critics, as Eater did to round out ol’ 2013.  Here’s a pinch…

Q: What was the best dining neighborhood in 2013?
Austin Louis Ray, writer:
If there’s a neighborhood in the Atlanta metro area that beats the food-and-drink murderer’s row—Taqueria, Farm Burger, Chai Pani, The Pinewood, Sawicki’s, Brick Store, 246, Leon’s, Cakes & Ale, Victory, Paper Plane, Twain’s, Kimball House—in Decatur… Actually, there just isn’t.

Bob Townsend, Atlanta Journal Constitution:
Decatur for community, quality, diversity, walkability, drinkability and a MARTA stop smack dab in the middle of it all.

Jennifer Zyman, Creative Loafing:
Decatur

John Kessler, Atlanta Journal Constitution
Decatur, because people are more and more heading into town first, then seeing where they can get a table or what kind of progressive meal they can assemble. It has a texture (and cocktail scene) unlike anywhere else in town.

And it keeps on going.  Check it…if you’re into such things.
