Rob and Lauren, along with the bartenders, wait staff, and the entire crew were professional and dedicated throughout the entire event! From planning to the day of everyone involved showed genuine care and concern for our party going exactly how we wanted. The food was served hot, delicious, and we received many compliments on it from our guests! We had an open bar for this event which everyone really enjoyed. We hired a Dj for this event and everyone had a great time out on the dance floor. Asking the staff to set up the tables how we wanted along with decor was no problem at all. The venue is just beautiful!! The main entrance is elegant and gives a WOW feeling to your guests as they arrive. The catering hall/party room has a fire place, bar area, tables set up with modern fancy chairs, and then leads to the indoor patio filled with windows for a beautiful view. It was nice having access to the bridal suite to get ready and store some items in during the party as well. They even had a wood photo back drop ready for us! We brought along some of our own decorations to make it unique to us, like a banner, florals, and seashells to fit our theme. You have so much room for creativity and personalization at this venue! For a party in warm weather the outside is just as pretty. There is a gazebo, perfect for photo opportunities. The grass is well kept and gives a stunning view for enjoying cocktail hour outside. This venue is perfect for a wedding, sweet 16, retirement party, christening, bar-mitzvah, or any event you can think of. Very affordable as well. I don't think you can beat this price with any other venue that is as wonderful as this one. Just give them a call and Rob will certainly help you plan your event so it meets all of your expectations!

I attended a bridal shower here in June and it was one of the best if not the best bridal shower I have ever been to, and I have been to many. Everything about this venue was perfect. The parking lot is a bit of a walk to the building, that's the only negative thing I have to say. The place is absolutely beautiful. Wooden structures inside overlooking the boardwalk with large windows, I mean I can't say enough about how beautiful a setting it was. The food for the shower was fantastic. Omelette station, standard brunch fare, all delicious. Tomato, mozzarella and basil, cheese and meat boards, delicious vegetables and fruit, I was wow-ed. The staff was phenomenal, coffee was literally insane. I couldn't believe how good the coffee was so I went up to a worker and asked what they use. He came back and said, "Folgers." I kid you not. I was so embarrassed but also went to Stop and Shop after I left the shower and bought a big thing of Folgers coffee because it's SO DARN GOOD. It was somewhat of a windy day so we stayed inside most of the time except for photos where we went outside onto the boardwalk and had a beautiful view of the beach. I attribute so much of this fantastic shower to the people who put it together as they brought a donut wall and had a make your own flower bouquet station and so on and so forth but the venue itself and the staff and the clean huge bathrooms were a 10/10. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have an event.

Every single staff member I dealt with was super friendly and the place is beautiful. It's a good opportunity to take some nice photos. And the "We may be right" Billy Joel tribute band made our experience even more pleasant. I haven't visited the Planetarium or the inside part of the mansion so I can't comment on that.

As we were guests of the band often (our friend was Brent Midland's assistant) we saw many a concert. My husband was blah about going, but really happy after. It blew my mind - and I don't do drugs. The sound system was amazing. The lasers were surprisingly good, although quite antiquated. My favorites were when you felt you were enveloped in the lasers. I was lost for an hour, in a good way. Luckily, hubby has a handicapped placard and we were able to park steps from the front door. I would have liked to have parked in the regular parking lot and walk, but that's no longer in the cards for us. The grounds are beautiful for as much as we could see in the dark.We would have loved to see the meteor shower, but that was not in the cards either.The show was from 9:30pm to 10:30pm (way past my bedtime) and over an hour away which was a complete bummer. In any case, this was a wonderful event. Join AARP if you're over 50 as the benefits are great.

I booked about a year ago with Harbor View Catering and…read moretheir space at Britannia Yachting Center for my wedding and we just had it a week ago on September 24th, 2021. This spot was perfect for our 55 person wedding with views and all. It was picturesque, simple and gave us everything we needed since we had a very DIY wedding. I first worked with Jackie and then Elise took over mid year. Elise was an amazing catering manager. She returned every call, text and email and was so easy to work with and accommodating. I visited several times throughout the year to see the space and she was so helpful every time I came to visit. I even wanted some extra time on top of the 4 hours we booked and Elise was able to take care of everything. I started out working with someone and gained a friend. She was so kind and assured me everything would come out perfectly. It did! Few things to know before you book: -You will have to book with Britannia Yachting Center to book the space separately since they are their own entity. After that, Elise from Harbor View will take care of everything, even communication with the folks who run the space. It felt like a little wonky of an arrangement to book and speak to two people separately, but Elise helped make everything run smoothly. -If you want the outside deck, ask! Just be prepared to pay a small extra fee. In my opinion, totally worth it! -It's bare bones! Be prepared to decorate it up as much as you want, or as little, it is a blank canvas! -Harborview has their own linens and blue chairs, but I do recommend you rent your own that better fit the circular tables, especially for nicer events like showers or bigger parties. I recommend you rent your own chairs as well. -If you want cloth napkins, make sure you ask for them, or rent them yourselves! We just went for their regular paper/cocktail napkins and it worked out just lovely for us since everything was buffet style anyway. -Ask for their preferred vendors. We found our DJ, chair and linen rental, tent rental. Everyone was pretty easy to work with for the most part. There is a very relaxed vibe, but everyone gets their stuff done since they're already familiar with the venue. No one disappointed on the big day and we were able to trust that all our vendors could get their stuff done. Ashely and Mike were great, helpful, nice and fun to work with as well bartending and keeping the place in order all night. Our guests were delighted and pleased with the service. The food was AMAZING! I recommend the mussels, shrimp cocktail, chicken marsala, beef tenderloin and penne a la vodka. All the pastas and seafood here are so good. It was so hard to pick from the menu they showed us because everything looked so good. There were plenty of options as well for our dairy free/vegetarian/vegan guests as well. Our guests continue to rave about how great the food was. For drinks champagne, wine, beer, sangria and soda is all you need for a party here! They also have a liquor package if you like :) The prices for renting the space and for the catering were the best I've seen in New York. My new husband and I didn't want to go in debt for our wedding, and Harbor View helped make that happen! You can still stay budget and have an amazing wedding. We can't wait to come back and celebrate again! We love this space and the restaurant next door, the Whale's Tale. We'll continue to visit as much as we can!

I grew up in this town and really miss the days when this place was Melville Bowl. Back then you…read morecould walk in, get a normal bowling lane, grab an easy pitcher of beer, and actually enjoy a relaxed night out. Those days seem long gone. Now the entire place feels geared almost exclusively toward kids and parties. They only keep the black lights on, which might be fun for children for a while, but not everyone wants to bowl in a dark neon environment the entire time. As a parent myself, I completely understand wanting a family-friendly atmosphere, and I'm all for it. But this place has 20+ lanes across both sides of the building. Why not dedicate some lanes to traditional bowling with regular lighting? Getting a server was nearly impossible, and the drink situation was equally frustrating. The pitchers are absurdly overpriced and the overall experience just feels like style over substance. If you live in Melville and want a more traditional bowling experience, you're basically driving to Syosset or Farmingdale now. It's unfortunate because this place has so much potential, but it feels like it's operating way below what it could be.

There are TVs above the lanes, which adds to the atmosphere. The staff was friendly and helpful overall. One thing to note is that food ordering is done through a tablet at your lane, and they bring everything directly to you. We didn't realize this at first and spent some time looking for a server, so a quick heads-up from staff would've made the experience smoother. Overall, a fun and well-equipped place to bowl and hang out.
