LAST year, a popular Scottish café featured on the BBC show The Hairy Bikers Go Local.
In the documentary, Hairy Bikers Si King and Dave Myers visit a number of locations across the UK in a bid to bring together local restaurants and suppliers.
Although the show first aired in January 2023, it has been broadcast once again on BBC Two this week, with Friday night's repeat seeing the two chefs travel to Fife.

As such, many have been left wanting to know more about The Harbour Café - one of the places the pair visit in the episode.
Where is The Harbour Café?
The café can be found in Fife, specifically in the village of Elie and is run by Jack and Amy Elles.
According to the restaurant’s website, it is known for serving “a selection of freshly caught and expertly prepared local seafood & produce”.
The website also explains: “We are passionate about using first class local ingredients and creating food which is good for the soul.”
What kind of food do they serve?
The menu varies depending on what the boats bring in on a day-to-day basis.
However, according to VisitScotland, “this can include lobster, langoustine and crab” while the menu also boasts “rustic homemade chips, sausage rolls & Forfar bridies, daily soups & stews”.
When it is open, the restaurant also operates as a takeaway.
When is the restaurant open?
Sadly, anyone wanting to enjoy the delightful food on offer is going to have to wait a little while as The Harbour Café is only open in the summer months.

According to VisitScotland, it is open Thursday to Sunday in April, May, June & September.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
