The Pier
Hotel is located in two
historic buildings that
stand proudly on the quay
side of old Harwich. The
hotel’s main building, built
in the 1850's, houses two
celebrated seafood
restaurants - The
Ha' Penny on the
ground floor and the
Harbourside on the first
floor - and seven
second-floor bedrooms, most
of which overlook the
estuary.
Weddings
The Pier
is simply a picture postcard
venue for a romantic wedding
day with its panoramic views
of the sea and harbour and
the famous Stour and Orwell
estuaries weaving away from
the harbour making it ideal
for wedding photographs. The
Pier can host civil
ceremonies for intimate
weddings with 50 guests
overlooking the harbour and
the ocean beyond. After
the nuptials the Harbourside
Restaurant is perfect for a
wedding breakfast for up to
100 guests. They can tailor
the menu to suit your
requirements whether you
like the idea of a finger
buffet or sit down meal they
can even take your wedding
breakfast to sea- on the
Essex barge.
Corporate & Other Events
The
Lounge in the Angel building
makes a great venue for
meetings. They can arrange
various activities, should
you wish to break from your
business for a spot of ‘team
building’.
A couple of ideas, why not
try a quick trip over to
France on a 60 mph, 225 HP
rib, or to the other
extreme, a gentle sail on an
Essex fishing smack (under
sail). Delegates staying
overnight
at The Pier have dinner in
the Harbourside Restaurant
before retiring to one of
the stunning bedrooms.
The Gallery is available to
hire for lunch and afternoon
meetings, Monday to Saturday
inclusive.
The Angel Sitting Room is
available in the evenings
for up to 60 guests for an
informal buffet with bar
facilities and soft
background music, but sadly
no dancing.
