Harvester in Blaby

Food awful, service poor, took hr n half to come out after several complaints never again will never go again

Food not too bad, service quite slow and a bit expensive

Was ok food wasn’t great think so much room to make it better.

Holly served us wonderfully putting up with 7 kids in a party of 9. Food was ok, we've had better, but the service was great. Thanks for looking after us Holly!! (Apologies it's taken 3 days to do this)

TJ was our server and he was very friendly and welcoming and provided quick service. The chefs were Racheal and Kirsty and they provided us with delicious food. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Been going here for a few years. However the last two meals we have had we at to send back. Chicken over cooked. Chips Luke warm. Sorry but twice bitten. We will not be coming back again

Great service from holly! Great atmosphere xxx

We had a great experience at Harvester today, amazing service by Rachael who was very attentive and friendly. The food was cooked by Ana and it was delicious, I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

The food was prepared by Ana and it was delicious! The burger was cooked and stacked perfectly and the chips were fantastic, fluffy on the inside with a bit of crunch on the outside. Rachael delivered fantastic customer service.

The service is ok. The restaurant serves the British standard menu. The food is lacking flavour. The ambient is nice. Easy access to the Car Park, and has plenty of space.

Before we went to Harvester, I rang ahead to ask if they had birthday banners as my stepdad turned 70 today. Rachel (manager) said yes and was happy to organise our table. On entry, Lauren took us to our table and my stepdad loved the surprise (thank you 😊). The food was absolutely lovely. Jay & Kirsty (chefs) did an amazing job with the food and presentation. Thank you to Danny & Lauren (servers) for looking after us and making sure all was good. It was beyond good, it was beaut.

Very nice food... shame about rude and arrogant woman who served us. She would be better off as a car mechanic or a butcher, the further from hospitality the better. Edit: I am editing my review score from 1 to 5 because the person that was very rude does not work there anymore and current staff are wonderful. Food stays the same... excellent.

Great service, food was quick arriving, friendly, approachable, and helpful staff, clean environment, warm atmosphere, and top quality food.

Came in for an impromptu lunch. New menu which seems really good but we didn't want anything too heavy. Great Service from Rachael, who was friendly and attentive. To our chef, Ana, thank you. We're regulars, and can't recommend it enough for the service and the food.

Great place! Food was lovely and service good. (Tilly) 😀

Great food and staff (we went for breakfast). Danny was great!!

Visited the the Harvester Leicester with my partner before heading to Vue cinema, staff member Aaron was so helpful, very professional, polite and always checking we were happy with everything, also making sure we used our discount code and signing us up to the app to get more deals and offers in the future, lovely experience. Thank you :)

Absolutely shocking place to eat at, very poor customer service, expensive food! Save your money and

Nice at atmosphere but the food is not fresh. Everything must come in frozen. Hummus was awful and definitely scooped out of a massive jar (not fresh). Waitress didn’t listen and got the order wrong and sent food back. If you want low quality food served in a nice environment this is 5*

Met some old friends for a bit of lunch. Servers were friendly and polite. Food took a little while to come out, but left us with time to catch up and enjoy the salad bar. A nice experience all in all. Thank you

A treat for my grandson, Alfie our server was great, attentive, friendly, food was lovely ☺️

I enjoyed a really nice meal with family today, our server JJ was fantastic! Very attentive, friendly and great service. Food was cooked to perfection by Dale and Kirsty in the kitchen best steak I’ve had in a while I’ll definitely be back soon!

Been here for the second time this year, and I have to say that whilst I'm a smidge disappointed that the only draught beer that they had was Peroni, the group I was with all had a great time. The food was better than expectations and the service was very attentive. Not so cheap these days, but certainly cheerful.

Was really nice service and food

Excellent service and food was amazing too

Excellent service good atmosphere

Alfie was our server today, he was very attentive and pleasant. Ana was the chef and our pancakes were delicious!

The food was yummy and service was very quick

Cappuccino was awful, salad bar is really bad and needs improvement. Southern fried chicken burger was ok, nothing special. Very poor for the amount they charge.

Ordered classic burger and chargrilled chicken flat bread and halloumi fries Halloumi fries were really well done touching on burnt & these are our favourite so dissapointed.. Classic burger was so tough my partner was struggling to swallow it Flatbread was nice and fresh My partner didn’t want to complain because he doesn’t like to make a fuss but had it been mine I’d have returned it Atmosphere was fine but cold in the restaurant many people still had coats on Lady who served us was lovely but we wouldn’t return unfortunately Restaurant wasn’t too busy When paying no one had asked how our food was at all during our time there We just wanted to get in and out which is surprising as harvester seems to have good reviews

Had amazing food. Amazing customer service. Would recommend this place to anyone. My waiter tonight was Alfie and he was awesome with his customer service and polite and professional

OK... the salad was great, my gammon was not so good, full of fat and gristle..hubby says his was lovely... hey ho..service was a little slow but what do you expect on a busy Sunday...was more worried about the amount of kids running around the restaurant, I do not know how the wait staff avoided them!

Greeted and served very quickly. Beautiful food. Nothing too much trouble. Always enjoy our trips to this Harvester branch.

We visited and had a brunch with a group of residents and our server was Danny, he was very polite, patient and helpful. He was great with dietary needs as we had someone Gluten Free and although there was minimal choice on the menu he went to the chefs to ask if they had any gluten free sausage to go with her meal. A server who was customer based and was knowledgeable. Thank you for everything you did.

I’ve rated it not great and the service was poor but I honestly think that was down to only having 3 servers on. They had an offer on which was shared with us and that was good. Sauces empty and also the salt and pepper.

Amazing server Ariet very lovely, meet my high expectations kept asking about our food how was everything very mannered respectable. Food amazing

Danny at Meridan was very very nice. Provided excellent Service. I would give him 10.out of 10

We were the only table in for breakfast, when we left there were 4 tables in the whole place. Lady who seated us was pleasant and got us drinks straight away. I ordered full breakfast, mushrooms, lukewarm warm, poached eggs hard, toast was soggy, bacon burnt, beans and sausages were ok. Whilst waiting for our food we got to listen to the waiter talking to the chef about a friend that was on only fans and the size of his you know what. Not great when I’m out with my 3 year old . We didn’t recieve any check on us on how our food was (considering there were 3 tables in at this point he was hardly busy. And from asking for the bill we waited a further 15 mins until it arrived, no thank you or goodbye as we were leaving. Will give this place a miss for breakfast

Love the breakfast here, unlimited toast and tea&coffee! The wait times can we lengthy when the place is busy which is quite often, but there is always some sort of unlimited self serve which helps to pass time if need to wait for the main meal! Would recommend. Update: they no longer give unlimited toast :'( Sad times. But the veggie breakfast was plenty enough to be fair, was very full afterwards

Compared to other visits, this was pathetic and poor. We waited a very long time for food because the staff were chatting near the bar and not paying attention to customers. The set menu is now gone and so the visit is too expensive for what you get. The portion size for the pasta shells was small and laughable, the garlic bread might as well have been a plain naan, no garlic whatsoever. A dreadful visit, no rush to come again after that lacklustre experience!

Served by Alfie (chefs will and Kyla) lovely food as always and came away full. Good prices But Alfie 5* waiter very polite friendly and nothing was a bother - thank you Alfie!!

Went as a family of 6 and there was something for everyone. Food was good value, set menu is also good but we had a separate discount to use which our server Aaron kindly reminded us of and ensured we got the best deal. Great service from him and the team, very chatty and happy to help. Always enjoy an easy meal here :)

Excellent. Service very good in spite of being very busy. Food very good both in taste and presentation.

Good rump steak, but treacle pudding and custard a little disappointing. Endless salad and bottomless dri ks a good idea

Food was amazing and everyone was so helpful and friendly! We will definitely come back :)

Lovely food and such friendly staff was served by jj very polite and great attitude, will definitely be back again.

A very nice visit for lunch today on our way to Lincoln, good value food and well looked after by our server Alfie. Not far off of the M1 with ample free parking.

Salad bar was depleted. Soggy peppers swimming in water, no lettuce, no coleslaw, no butter, and no thousand island dressing. My chicken was lovely, but my jacket potato was tough and dried out.

Just been for dinner... served by Bev who always does an amazing job of looking after us. Most positive and upbeat server ever. Thanks!

Doest time trying harvester great food and lovely staff will be coming more often for sure

Great service. Lovely food. Thanks so much x

I came in on what seemed to be a busy friday and was served by joe and rhianna. Rhianna was extremely kind and patient with me and my family. Will definitely be back!

We enjoyed our visit and the staff were very hard working and very good. Everyone enjoyed the food we had also. One of the reasons I booked with you is that on line I was led to believe you did the blue light card discount, I was upset that when paying the bill the waitress said you had stopped the blue light card discount. When going out again I will probably go to another restaurant that does the blue light card discount and not this one. It will be a shame as it was a good night overall.

Wow a The Chicken Classic Burger 🍔 with chips 🍟 and sundae beat ice cream 🍦 with cone

The servers listened well, bring food out quickly. Very pleasant staff.

Salad food nice no cheese , main meal was incorrect, One member staff , stated I was rude , fact is I turned away main meal as was still eating salad half way through, harvesters are know for rushing diners. The young lady came with main 2nd attempt said I was rude , nothing was true in her statement, I got told to leave disgusting

Welcoming staff and supervisor, Joanna, with a delightful, friendly personality. Last week my friend and I had breakfast - two poached eggs on muffins with hollandaise sauce. Do ask for a pot of sauce on the side if you don't want/like your eggs 'camouflaged', ie, drenched in the sauce. Joanne was very approachable and equally understanding on this issue. Thank you. We will try it again! 😊

Amazing service and a warm welcome from Melody and great food from will! We will be back!

Love the food here and service is amazing . Would like to say thanks to Holly who looked after us and was very polite and happy to serve us....😊

Great server, amazing food. Thanks TJ

Server was Aaron and he was very friendly, the other members of staff I could not say the same for, reminded me of a zombie who wanted to be anywhere else.

Excellent service and lovely food Thankyou to the waiter Danny for being so helpful, finding my wife suitable options for her allergies, and for being so good with our 2 year old grandson who can be very hyperactive. Based on the outstanding customer service we received we will definitely make our visits regular ones 👍🏻

Food quality and portions were poor. Cleanliness of the toilets very poor. We were told we could eat from the Sunday menu only later to be charged standard menu pricing.

Family-friendly restaurant where the highlight is the unlimited buffet salad. Hats off to the staff who are friendly and very patient with us. We had vouchers, which made it better value, and the kids loved their food. Decor slightly tiring, but the rest was positive

Very good and impressive food and services

aaron was great help with service and food

Great food by Josh and the service by Bev has been exceptional. My 4 year old loves coming into the Meridian Harvester.

Called in here for breakfast and I was not disappointed, the breakfast is very good and highly recommended. The staff are friendly, the place is clean and tidy with parking right outside.

Food has really improved here recently

Service was good, staff were polite and helpful, restaurant was clean, salad bar was ok, but the food wasn't brilliant. It's still decent value and I appreciate that you get what you pay for so I'm not expecting Michelin star quality of food, but the half roast chicken I had was undercooked and also very dry, like it had been living on the hotplate for a long time.

furniture dirty,whole place needs a good clean or a refurbishment,ladies toilet disgusting,unclean one of the doors didn't lock

Wonderful friendly service from Aaron who took extra requests too. Not often that restaurants can cook a steak well but it was melt in the mouth and cooked to perfection by Will. Thankyou for a lovely meal.

Janelle was great! Really nice and friendly

Was very great service, amazing food we ordered from the burger menu. But unfortunately the toilets where dirty, needs regular checks and cleaned , TJ was are server and he was brilliant.

JJ was our server for today and he did an excellent job. Friendly and helpful. One of our children has a dairy allergy and the chefs made sure his food was prepared safely which I really appreciate. Many thanks!

Food is good and the staff are very helpful. Nothing too much trouble . And service with a smile. Served by TJ who was lovely . Shout out to the chefs Will and Josh . Must be such hard work in a kitchen and they do so well thank you

Lovely service by Isaac. Noisy air con unit was a bit much but we had a great time celebrating my daughter's 11th birthday. Candle in the desert was lovely.

One of the poorest experiences we have had with this chain. Not that we frequent them often. Staff don't appear to have any customer service training, right from the lack luster welcome to the waiting staff. Fortunately they only spilled fries when they reached over my husband to put my meal in front of me. Other team members rudely clearing the plates from my sons, whilst my husband was still eating. Food very average, have to note we watched our onion rings wait in the hatch for over 10 minutes. Perhaps choose another of the chain eateries on this development.

Took time to get a seat and place an order...during non busy hour..service could be a little faster....

Lovely food, good service, affordable price.

Waited a while 30 mins for food but I must say it was well worth the wait food fanatic and service was good will be definitely be going again

Great food. Lovely staff. A bit cold but good overall. Aaron is a great staff member, very polite.

Our server Bev was very kind and happy. Really puts a smile on the customers face. The food was also really good prepared by our chef Kirsty, really worth a second visit.

Fantastic experience, food was lovely, server bev was so lovely.

I love coming here normally but on my recent visit on 2/8/24 I found the salad not the freshest it didn't taste as it would usually. I thought fine it's me being picku. My partner had ribs and loved them. I had the chicken (that's like hunters chicken but has a different name at harvester) and the main breast was pink and slimy. I was told it was because it had been near the bone. Either way I was done with it because it was pink and slimy. I had loaded chips with pulled pork, it was spicy but delicious. The management removed the chicken from my bill which I appreciated. Service was good. I will still go an eat here again because I like harvester and usually the salad tastes fresh and is great and I don't normally have issues with the food.

Food, always delicious. Service, always done with a smile. Atmosphere was a little on the loud side, but as this is a family restaurant, this is to be expected!

I am carer, i took out my disabled customer here for lunch, from the min we walked in for our lunch to the time we finished service given by KIVIS was absolutely amazing…. Food is allways amazing….

Alfie served us today, he was so lovely! Haydn was out chef, food was yummy! Never had a bad meal here, we've been coming for years!

A very disappointing meal. The chicken was dry and overcooked, the peas were cold and it took ages for our food to arrive. Will not be returning.

Alfie was a wonderful server and gave us great customer service… food was also great by Haydn

Had to wait 25 minutes for mains not bad food got the meal order's wrong, but because so busy could not change it, having to wait 40 minutes for 4 kids puddings ia not good very hard ro keep amused

Service was great, location very welcoming and comfortable.

Very poor service, missing items from order and very poor handling to the driver for the drinks. Attitude and lack of customer care.

Went the other day with my family food was great our waiter was JJ who was amazing very helpful whatever we needed he helped definitely would recommend.

Bev our server was an absolute star for our daughter's birthday lunch. Ever so patient with the granddaughters. Food and drinks delicious 😋 😍

Food was excellent. By chef Dale

I have visited harvester many times to eat and I’ve always had a great experience. Food was served fast and was always greeted with a happy face.

An overall great experience! Very friendly staff, the food and service quality was excellent! I will definitely visit again, highly recommend.

Fantastic services from Rachael and the team!

I had a great meal at Harvester Meridian Park. Chef Will’s food was delicious, and Bev provided excellent service
