Harvester in Aberdeen City

Took my wife and granddaughter for a meal, shown to a table straight away, and the staff were cheerful and helpful. The food was amazing and good value.

Good food at reasonable prices. Small selection, but something for all, on special two course deal. Great service as usual. Thanks again for a nice afternoon

Stopped past for dinner and to use a voucher we had been given after a bit of a bad experience elsewhere. Brilliant service, arrived early but were seated with no fuss, staff were wonderful, so friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble for them. Service was fast, Food was very nice, huge portions!!, we were completely stuffed. Also had no idea they are also a dog friendly restaurant, so we will visit again with our doggo in tow. Thank you so much for a lovely evening 🙂

The service was great. We did not have to wait for long for our food and drinks. The food was cooked to perfection, exactly the way we wanted it.

Really lovely food. Service was fantastic - Bessie did everything she could and more. Really accessible for me with a disability and Really flexible around seating. I go back here time and time again because they're so helpful.

A very nice meal for all of us. Our server Jane was very nice and helpful regarding allergies for one of our group. Looked after us very well

Lovely place, the manager was a nice guy very attentive as was the waiter will definitely be back again a lovely atmosphere

Warm welcome from Linda, looked after well, and great talkative personality. Will definitely be coming back, Well done :)

Jedzenie przerosło nasze oczekiwania będąc tu pierwszy raz Linda profesjonalnie nam doradziła i miło obsłużyła dołączyła też Monika która namówiła nas na degustscjie żeberek które były obłędne !!!!!!mega sztos !!!!!

Just want to say a massive thank you to Linda our waitress, really lovely and chatty but just a reminder Linda - remember your glasses for your shift tomorrow! My husband and son throughly enjoyed their lunch and I do need to mention Dean the chef for the most beautifully cooked steak to go with my salad - 100% perfect! Thanks again for a lovely lunch, will be back soon!

Hearty food, excellent service 👌 always good value for money. Linda was very welcoming and helpful and chef Dean put a smile on our faces with his happy singing! We'll definitely be back 😁

Great Food, great staff & Dog friendly to boot our waitress. Jane was awesome as per usual. A nice relaxed atmosphere For breakfast, lunch or dinner

Great staff very friendly and helpful. Basic food but very good value for money the unlimited salad is always a bonus and a good selection.

Now admittedly I'm a fussy customer, I'm the fifty questions before I can order type of person, but Jane handled all my questions patiently, she was really informative about the menu, super helpful. We both liked the salad barThe food was good, I enjoyed the chicken skewers, I'd went for two on the advice of Jane when I described how hungry I was and I was glad I did, although one is a decent portion, they also came with a lovely soft flatbread and a big pot of sweet potato fries. The option of soft drinks with free refills was a good offer. There was a small issue with one meal but Jane dealt with it quickly, and apologised, really excellent service.

Service was exceptional as always! Nothing is too much trouble ever when we explained our difficult food allergies, Will 100% be back again

A fantastic breakfast as always! Food is always piping hot and fresh, the unlimited coffee is pretty good too! A really good selection of non traditional breakfasts too if you aren’t a full English kind of person!

Wonderful lunch here. Greeted with a smile and service was great from start to finish. Food was really good and great place for kids too :)

Excellent service from Kasia. Good classic breakfast and waffles with unlimited coffee for good price. First visit but definitely not last one.

We had a very enjoyable lunch here. Food was good and very relaxed atmosphere for going out with young children. Have to say our waitress, Sarah, made the experience as positive as it was. She was so cheery, helpful and attentive. Fantastic with our kids and went above and beyond. Thank you Sarah!

TERRIBLE 🥴 EVENING MEAL EXPERIENCE , -YET AGAIN ! Visited last week, an early evening eve supper.... Not particularly busy at 6pm, ordered starter, course and dessert, from set menu. 2 waitresses working upper part, both could be heard very loudly dealing with diners, in an approach I can only describe as bizarre... To the point that departing diners passing were overheard commenting they could now remove their ear-plugs... Food mediochre, Steak over-priced and grissly, dessert was forgotten about by absentee waitress, who saw no effort to apologise at till-point when we left & gave-up, after waiting an age... Pleasant Manager, who seems to try his best, waiting staff could adopt a more discrete approach indeed and still remain friendly, it is not presented well outdoors, very scruffy and in dire need of a tidy up and refurb, as many have commented additionally. Possible ownership changes have left this Harvester neglected? However having visited several others elsewhere in the U.K, the issues at Aberdeen seem unique only to this branch.... Last week was my final ever visit, even with discount vouchers this branch is awful, as others have commented-table needed a better clean, floor was sticky and messy, several items not available and inept waiting staff, all made for a waste of money... My tip -AVOID!!!!

We went for Christmas dinner and was disappointed, we did not all get the proper starter that we had ordered, then waited 1 and 1/2 hours before we got our main course, one of our party had enough and left.

Good service at Aberdeen harvester and staffs are very good. Good choices of salad bar Good menu No problem with it Will be back 😀

Its a fantastic restaurant! Its our favorite restaurant, the food its really delicious, and all the People are very nice! Monia was the waitress who served us and she is very friendly. And the prices are affordable!!!

We enjoyed a lovely lunch and had great service from Monia. Reasonably priced. Very good menu with something to suit everyone.

When we arrived we were shown to a table but on reflection decided we didn’t want to sit there as it was quite close to the door and we were both cold. Sarah spotted our dilemma and immediately came over and offered another table. She quickly came back and took our drinks order and gave us our salad bowls. She returned with our drinks and took our food order which then arrived shortly. Sarah has served me and my friend and my family on numerous occasions and is very friendly, helpful and funny.

Absolutely fabulous experience today had been put off after a couple of poor meals a few months back but staff are always great especially Sarah. Food was 10 out of 10 today thank you Kait everything was great but Nachos and steak were the best!

As always Exceptional service by Jane and Linda! And the food was top notch with plenty of selection on the fabulous salad bar and the vast menu which caters well to vegans and vegetarians! I always enjoy the recommendations from the team here who always...

My husband and I had a very nice lunch on a weekday. The surroundings were pleasant and the service very attentive.

The place is run down and needs a revamp. Toilets are disgusting. Wouldn't have stayed if I'd seen the toilets before eating! Food was average as expected. One order arrived incorrect.

Fab, no complaints food good my 3 & 5 year old girls well catered for me and wife left stuffed... all we could want. Thanks

Had a lovely breakfast today Sarah our server was awesome and smiling the whole time (unlimited coffee is always a winner) Will definitely be back x

Went here Christmas Day with family, on entering we were shown our table by the manager who the pointed out our waitress for our time there, that was the only time we saw her. We were sitting 45mns and had to go and look for...

Harvester is usually always great but the last twice we have been the restaurant has been really cold. This evening we had a 50% discount code to use, so were excited to come down and have some dinner after cooking throughout Christmas. Once we had...

Harvester’s unlimited breakfast is great value and quality. We are always given a very warm welcome from Monia.

Called the restaurant this afternoon at at around 2pm. Was told Groupon voucher was valid today. Arrived at 6pm told Groupon not valid today. A ruined night offered a 20% discount off our meal. No good will gesture more concerned about processing tickets on their...

Extremely friendly staff good food and a very reasonable price. Love for when I can’t be bothered cooking. Always have a good laugh with the staff

Excellent service with enthusiastic staff. Provided more than the expected information and created a very comfortable environment.

Amazing. Extremely friendly staff, didn’t bring the dogs but they would have been welcomed. Salad bar was open and had a festive menu and it was delicious. Lovely cuppa tea too.

We had a lovely evening at Harvester to celebrate mum's birthday with the family. Sarah our server was fantastic and made the evening even more memorable. Sarah took the time to explain the Gluten free options as two in our party have Coeliac, this was...

The food was excellent and the service from Sarah was really great. Informed us of what we Were geting and gave us alternative. Very polite and cheerful great personality really worth visiting.

The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The service was quick and our server Sarah was fantastic!!

Despite half the tables being empty, we waited for an hour and a half for our food to arrive with other tables that ordered after us getting their food first. The gents toilets had a flow of water on the floor that you had to...

Jane was awesome as usual! Could not fault the service or the food, always been good here and glad to see its keeping up. Highly recommend

Very nice gammon. Sweet potato fries nice and crispy. Enjoyed the visit, under 30 quid for the two of us. Our server deserves a round of applause. Her name was Jane and she was handling all of the tables with utmost patience. She made hs...

Returned once again to the Ghillies to be treated with friendly faces the staff as always were cherry and helpful from start to finish and once again the chefs had outdone themselves! We also live that the salad bar is back to self service!! 10/10...

We had party of 17 for a birthday celebration, TBH I thought they are never going to pull this off and get 17 meals and starters all out and at the same time and the right choices, well it all came out perfectly and together....

Very easy to book a table on line, warm welcome when we arrived. Salad bar is a great feature especially with young kids. Food was quick and the free refill soft drinks a great advantage. Great to see it fully open again.

I have visited this Harvester at least 5 times over the summer so far. I nearly didn’t go back after a poor experience but decided to give them another try. A few weeks ago I had waited far too long to be served my food....

Went to Ghillies Lair for a family birthday breakfast. Great welcome from Monia. As usual it was excellent quality and good value.

Quick & efficient service 10/10 will be back couldn’t finish our meal we’re both stuffed!! Recommend for vegetarians & vegans

Arrived without a booking but it's a big place plenty tables. Got told I could have a table after I said I would sit anywhere instead of being turned away. Got offered area where it was self service. No probs. Table was dirty and sticky....

One of our regular haunts for the past 7 years, never disappoints. Had an absolutely smashing meal (ultimate mixed grill and true blue burger) fantasticly cooked by the excellent chefs, brilliant service from Mo and Monia specifically, but all the staff were great tonight. As...

Came in with elderly relative. Could not have been kinder or more attentive. Yummy food too. Ask for Monia, she’s a great waitress and caring person. Jeuvic!

Very slow service for breakfast. Waited over 1hr after our order had been taken. Poor organisation when food was cooked, nobody knew what plates were going on what table. Pancakes were sat under the hot lamp for 40mins while waiting to be served to customer....

mo ,best and arona great service received 2 staff on training on bar best service from bar staff that we have received over the years

After being let down by another restaurant yesterday I took the chance of booking Harvester with the hope it would be okay for a booking of 8 people. It was my husbands 40th Birthday and we attended with family members to celebrate. The service provided...

This place never fails to deliver. Yes, you can probably get better quality food elsewhere, but the quality of food is really good, the prices are decent, you can always get parked right outside, but the main thing for me is the waiting staff. They...

Lovely hot food served quickly and efficiently, service from the staff was pleasant and the salad bar was full, fresh and appetising! Will be back again soon!

The team were amazing and friendly from start to finish and the food was out of this world! I love that they are dog friendly and also will go out if their way to help

We were up in Aberdeen for a 4 day break and found this lovely harvester restaurant. We have been in twice over the last few days, once for lunch and once for dinner. Both times the food and service has been top notch. At lunch...

4 of us had booked for 6pm. It was busy, but not packed out. Unfortunately the service was painfully slow, taking nearly an hour before our food arrived. When it did, I quite enjoyed mine, but a couple of others found the chicken dry to...

Sarah is just a gem, drinks were made wrong by another member of staff and Sarah sorted them for us 😀 then Sarah made a cocktail we’d never tried and it was ace a good after taste 😁

Given we had both a vegetarian and an allergy suffer in our party, we were surprised by the range of options available. The staff took the time to outline all the allergy info, and were extremely friendly and helpful during our visit. Particular credit to...
