Nestled between the Solent and the New Forest; The Haven, Lymington offers the best views over the marina to the Isle of Wight hills beyond. Abundant with fresh produce from our local shores and forest, we get crab straight from the boat, New Forest strawberries, and tomatoes from the Isle of Wight just across the water.
Ours is a seafood inspired menu with a strong focus on locally sourced ingredients. Simple yet delicious, all-day dining, there’s something for everyone to love, seven days a week.

Sunday Roasts are served from early October through the winter months: starting 12 midday, last sitting at 3pm, Followed by live music 4pm-6pm
Order yourself a drink, sit back, relax and enjoy some great live music! We showcase different local artists every Sunday 4pm – 6pm throughout the winter. No need to book - simply come down and chill out with some great tunes.
We’re dog lovers at The Haven, used to welcoming four-legged friends on the terrace and in our bar & snug areas. If you call in advance, we’ll reserve a dog-friendly table for you. You’ll even find water bowls on the terrace and dog treats on the bar.
