Discover more about The Heathers Restaurant
A Harbourside Gem with Panoramic Views
The Heathers Restaurant occupies a distinctive position on Gunsgreen Hill, commanding sweeping views across Eyemouth harbour and the North Sea beyond. The building itself serves as the clubhouse for Eyemouth Golf Club, lending it a welcoming, established character. Large windows frame the water, where fishing boats and leisure craft come and go throughout the day, creating a dynamic backdrop that shifts with the tides and light. The setting captures the essence of this working fishing village while offering visitors a comfortable, refined dining experience.Seafood Excellence and Seasonal Freshness
The kitchen's reputation rests on its commitment to fresh, quality seafood sourced from local waters and suppliers. The menu rotates seasonally and features an impressive range of preparations: king prawns, scallops, seabass, plaice, scampi, and black pudding appear regularly alongside other fish and shellfish specials. Dishes are executed with straightforward technique that allows the natural flavour of the seafood to shine. Portion sizes are notably generous—diners frequently comment that two courses leave them satisfied without room for dessert. The menu also includes non-seafood options, ensuring there is something for every palate, though the seafood selections are the true draw.Service and Atmosphere
Staff members are consistently described as attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. The dining room maintains a relaxed yet polished atmosphere, suitable for families, couples, and groups. The combination of professional service, quality food, and the compelling views creates an experience that feels both special and unpretentious. Whether you arrive for a casual lunch or a memorable dinner, the restaurant's welcoming approach ensures guests feel valued.Value and Accessibility
Pricing sits in the moderate range, with many main courses under £15, making The Heathers accessible for a wide range of budgets. The restaurant is open daily from 10:00 to 20:00, accommodating both lunch and dinner service. For those travelling by campervan, the restaurant offers parking with electric hook-ups and sea views—a practical amenity that extends hospitality beyond the dining room itself. The location is dog-friendly, welcoming four-legged companions alongside their owners.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
