Went after trampoline park in Braehead where the staff we dealt with there were so rude. Popped in for a midweek dinner with friends as celebrating a birthday. Anna couldn’t have been more lovely and cheerful and made our casual dinner so nice and was a breathe of fresh air in customer service! Food was very good, 4* as the food is good, some of the seats a bit worn but amazing service, quick and tasty. Thanks again for cheering us all up

I would like to say thank you to the lovely waitress who served us on my mums birthday. I think her name was Anna ( apologies if incorrect) - 21Oct for 6pm . I made the reservation online and asked to put out a few things for my mums birthday, When we arrived the table had balloons and a few banners it made my mums day. The service was 10/10 - nothing was too much trouble and the food was lovely - would highly recommend the mixed grill, and Anna even served my mum a little choc cake with a candle. Would definitely return. thank you

TBH we expected some average food but were we wrong! My wife had the chicken stack and each type of chicken was spot on. I had the bird surf and turf and the chicken was amaxing and the steak fab. Best meal I have had in years.

La peor comida que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo. Visitamos a la hora del almuerzo en la calle 31 de julio. Nos sentamos afuera ya que teníamos perros con nosotros. Pedimos en el bar y esperamos 30 minutos para nuestra comida a pesar de que el lugar estaba lejos de estar ocupado. Cuando finalmente llegaron nuestras hamburguesas, una carne y una verdura, casi no eran comestibles. Tan seco e insípido. Supongo que habían estado sentados por un tiempo y olvidados. No volveremos a una cosechadora en el corto plazo. Demasiado caro y horrible.

Having not visited a Harvester for years this was our second visit in a month. Excellent rump steak - tender and lovely taste. I've paid much more for mediocre steaks in other establishments. Free, unlimited salad bar is great - excellent selection plus lovely crusty roles. Service friendly and efficient. Will certainly be back and would recommend it.

We visited the restaurant mid Monday evening as a wee treat,and I must say a treat we got greeted with a big smile and a warm welcome the lovely Anna had us seated and made at home in no time. She recommended the steak and again it was cooked and presented to perfection by the chefs. We certainly will visit again and hope the lovely Anna is around because you certainly know how to treat a guest. Thanks again

Came here with the family for a bite. We have a harvester very close to home which we visit every so often and have never had a bad experience. We ordered drinks but I had forgotten my license, meaning that I wasn’t allowed a beer with my meal due to me looking under 25. Even after i explained that the purpose of our visit was for food and that we had 60+ year olds present, the manager cut me off mid sentence and decided to ramble about the law when they had no idea about the law themselves. Nevertheless, we were hungry and I decided to proceed with my Coca Cola. We chose to make it quick and ordered easy things, the classic burger, and a couple of orders of chicken, bacon and waffles. The burger was dry and clearly cooked from frozen, giving it a rubbery texture. Upon it lay a solemn , tiny slice of tomato, which we dubbed “the sad tomato”. That was put aside. The waffles were rock hard around the edges and soft in the center, usually a telltale sign of a microwave job. The chicken was actually not bad, quite tasty from the bite I had, but the dry bacon that lay on top just killed it off. If you’re coming here, come for the salad bar, and don’t forget some ID.

Had a lovely lunch with my fiancee here, we started with drinks brought to us straight away then onto the food. We headed to the unlimited salad bar to begin. All of it was fresh and tempting. Good start. Then our starters arrived, tasty and full of flavour. Giving us enough time to finish then our main course. Beautifully presented and perfectly cooked, we both really enjoyed this and the whole experience was excellent. I will be back soon, would highly recommend this to everyone.

Buena comida cuando finalmente llegó. El restaurante parecía estar tranquilo cuando entramos y nuestra orden de bebidas fue tomada y entregada rápidamente. Nuestro pedido de comida fue tomado y nos dirigieron a la barra de ensaladas, que estaba casi vacío. . . . . . Tomó 30 minutos para reponerse, ¡justo cuando nuestras comidas estaban siendo servidas! ! Parecía ser un montón de personal, así que no sé cuál era el problema. A un precio razonable y sabroso, me decepcionó la falta de un bar de ensaladas "gratuito".

Lovely typical basic harvester however when we arrived the floor manager told us they had had a really busy few days and had run out of a few things. Basically the only things left on the menu were burgers and chicken dishes. This wasn't a problem for us but wasn't really explained and didn't instil confidence that the restaurant could manage its demand effectively.

The restaurant on the day that I went was nearly empty. Only 2 other people eating, so very quite indeed. I ordered a rib eye steak and waited over half an hour.... Thank god they were not busy. Now I do not mind waiting if the food is good, but this was poor. It was almost as though they were defrosting the steak before cooking. It came and it was terrible. Grilled Tomato cut the wrong way and was dead , not hot but burnt. Chips weren't hot. Even the salads looked tired as this place seems like no one eats there.

We had a groupon deal for the harvester Braehead Glasgow. I phoned and booked as we had a double birthday celebration. We had difficulty finding the place as the address is different to their website. We had never been before and hadn't realised the change of name. On our arrival we were told there was no booking, however as the place was nearly empty(I now know why) they could accommodate us. Menus were issued but this was unnecessary as per the groupon deal our choices were quite restricted. We knew and understood this. BUT our choices were even more restricted as they had run out of or were very limited in availability. When I complained we were basicly told that nothing could be done. We asked to speak to the general manager but he was unavailable. Voices were raised but we all decided to choose something from the limited choices. The female waitress ( not the duty manager ) then declared that she was refusing to serve us and asked us to leave.

Only sold desperado or sol, my husband drinks lager and had never heard of them, no wonder at £3.70 for a small bottle. We asked for white rolls to be told there order hadn't arrived, a few minutes we were told they had just been delivered?, the food came and it was just ok, nothing to rush back for, felt sorry for the manager who kept apologizing

Visited at around 6pm tonight. The restaurant wasn’t busy, nor was the center, it was staffed by two males who who were very attentive and courteous to my partner and I. Service was promptDrinks were brought over to to the table and shortly after our food arrived, which was lovely. As we sat we talked as some couples do “if 30 people walk in here, they have no chance”. Yes so I suppose it’s under staffed, or as an establishment under the strict man hours budgets restraints of Mitchel’s & Butler spot on. The two guys working when we visited couldn’t have been any nicer. We have visited this particular Harvester before and prefer it to the other which is nearby in hillington. It’s a great place to bring kids. Thank god mine are in their late20s. Ps DO THE MIXED GRILL

I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone as they have 2 members of staff to cover the entire restaurant so you will be waiting forever. We waited 10 minutes just to be seated then waited an hour for my main course to arrive. I could see our food sitting in the window for about 15 minutes so when it got to us it was room temperature. The waiting staff and chefs have no sense or urgency and I will not be returning.

A group of 18 of us had booked here for lunch (1230) after a sledging session for my sons 4th birthday. I made the reservation weeks ago and made them aware the size of party and the fact we had 7 young kids with us. We arrived to find we were being seated at 2 separate tables which was not ideal. I understand that it's easier for the staff but given that we and one other small party we're the only ones there our needs should have been put 1st over ease for staff. We were told the see bass and sirloin steaks were off the menu which was fair enough. One of the group ordered a rib eye to be told "we don't have any of those". 6 of the 7 kids ordered fish fingers. The waiter then came out (without a menu) and said they only had enough for 4 and needed 2 of them to have something else. We managed that without too much disappointment. Although we were a bit concerned that 90 minutes after opening they had no fish fingers!One table had almost finished their meal before the second table had any food at all. When we went to settle the bill we got one for each table which made splitting very complicated as each family had people at each table. 4 of the group have worked (or still do) in the hospitality trade and found the entire experience sub-standard. Needless to say nobody from the group will be rushing back there. I've given it a poor rating over terrible as the food we did get was tasty. I definitely wouldn't recommend harvester at braehead for groups of more than 4-6!

Have been to a few harvesters and this was by far the worst. Firstly the salad bar had a few things empty. Our main courses took about 1 hour to arrive which was ridiculous considering it wasn't even that busy. Food was OK but have tasted better fish and chips. Dessert took 45 mins which is also unacceptable. One of us ordered an eton mess ice cream which didn't even contain any meringue. The slow service was probably caused by whoever's smart idea it was to only have two waitresses. Generally find the harvester good but this was not. we would not return to this particular harvester.

Went here with the girlfriend had a nice welcome at the door from the manager. She then seated us and one of the guys that worked there came and took our order. Asked us what drinks we wanted and he told us that the drinks are unlimited refills which was good to know and they also had the salad bar what didn't cost a penny. This was good because we didn't fancy anything for starters that was in the menu in the starters. (Not to say that you will feel the same). We finished a couple of plates of salad then the main courses came. Good portion size for the money. Great quality also really fresh. Upon finishing the main courses we then ordered desert. 2 of the fudge cakes. But the guy said to is that the cakes were rather big and he said it might be good if you just order one to share. So we did and it's a good thing that we did because even though we shared neither of us could finish it together! Over all I loved eating in this place. Left a decent tip for the staff also because we were so delighted. I would recommend anyone go here it is a nice place.

1st time eating here. On arrival we were told due to it being busy throughout the day certain items weren't available from "our" menu. Not a great start but it was fine. We had nachos to share, they were fine. I had the sirloin steak & fries & my girlfriend had the BBQ chicken stack. Both meals were pretty good. My steak was a bit tough though. That was my only complaint with the mains. The place seemed as if it was a bit understaffed in my opinion. Would probably give it a second chance to see if it was better next time.

Been to a few Harvesters and the food is all of a similar standard and generally good value for money. The problem I find with this branch though is the slowness of service in terms of both time from ordering to receiving food and also the attentiveness of staff for clearing plates away, drinks re-fills etc which can be annoying if you are having a quick bite before going to the Odeon upstairs

Ate here (against my wishes but my friends insisted that we give it another chance) yesterday .I had fish and chips - and i have never in my life been presented with such a disastrous bit of fish. Beneath the batter - this offering was as grey as a corpse, my knife would not cut into it - it was beyond belief. Tough does not even touch it. Why o why would the chef put this thing in batter then serve it up? The only saving grace about this establishment was the lovely Latvian girl who did her best to rectify this issue. She was amazing and was so apologetic (should have been the chef who was apologetic but there you go).All i will say is NEVER AGAIN.

Personally I love Harvester and have been to several. So when I arranged to meet some friends for some food in Soar we all decided on the Harvester as all of us love the variety of the menu and for what you get it is reasonably priced. We weren't disappointed with this one. Six of us were in one of the booths and whilst the restaurant wasn't full it was busy on a Sunday afternoon. Emma was our server and very attentive throughout. All of us chose something different from the menu and none of us were disappointed with what got. All hot enough and very tasty. Nothing to complain here. A party of happy customers.

We originally were planning on Nandos but their grill wasn't working so we plumped for Harvester - none of us (family of 4) had been before but it seemed to cover all our likes. Alana, our server, couldn't have been better - she made suggestions for us, offered to fill glasses so our food wouldn't go cold. The food was delicious and I can't wait to go back and try desserts as we were all too full to try them! At the end of the meal Alana advised that they were short-staffed and she hoped we hadn't been put off - I couldn't believe it, you would never have known. She was very calm, collected and extremely helpful - made all the better knowing they were short staffed We'll definitely be back.

Always go for Sunday lunch at various restaurants. Today after visiting Ikea drove over to Escape where there are several esteriese. Decided on the harvester where we were seated immediately and asked our choice of drink. The restaurant was bright, spacious and clean. Our server Stella was polite and courteous and most of all friendly. Our meal was piping hot and delicious. The salad bar which is in with meal cost was adequate. Loved the toilets where loo, wash hand basin, mirror and hand dryer where all in each separate cubicle. Good venue for Sunday lunch and will definitely return thanks to Stella and staff.

We went to an empty Harvest restaurant on Sunday afternoon 2pm and for lunch. The waitress told us that there was 45min to get a table. Obviously they were too busy serving three tables. Nice way to tell to move away, I guess.

We went to the harvester in june for dinner before a movie in xscapeIt was a nice wee meal u get free refills on soft drinks which is nice.I did however just find the service very slow and the staff didnt smile or make eye contact with us. So i felt if they were a wee bit more attentive to the customers it would have been a nicer experience But the food was quite nice so we couldnt complain too much

We called into this branch of a chain for the first time. We were very pleasantly surprised at the quality of food and the excellent free salad refill. The staff were super helpful as we arrived soaked from a sudden downpour and helped us dry off!! Free refills on the fountain drinks too. Reasonable priced and lovely surroundings. If I had to say any negative it would be that for having three chefs and three servers and about three customers at the time the food was slow to arrive, but well worth the wait. Would go back on our next trip.

Tucked just round from the shrieks of the young daredevils on the climbing wall at Escape, Braehead, the Harvester restaurant seems quite unobtrusive at first. We had only just started to view a menu on one of the outside tables when a congenial member of staff appeared and offered us some assistance. With the main menus and the daily lunch specials to consider we were left to consider our options.The wide ranging menu had a fine range of starters , served as single portions or as bumper servings to share. We opted for a scrumptious and generous mountain of nachos with cheeses and salsa sauce. I was tempted by the 8oz rump and fries while my partner opted for a Chicken Stack. The chicken dish consisted of a smoky barbecued chicken breast wrapped in lovely back bacon and covered in Monterey Jack cheese.Skewered with the breast were three plump breaded chicken thighs cooked to perfection, sweet corn and fries, all smothered with a thick barbecue sauce.I hasten to mention that the free salad bar was bursting with all of the normal offerings, spicy pasta, curried potatoes, and salads with the crusty rolls and butter a final nice touch. My steak seemed larger than 8 oz and was cooked exactly as I asked, lean and succulent and excellent value at under £15.A shared starter, two filling tasty mains and unlimited salad and rolls.Add two refillable soft drinks and the bill was under £32.Great value, nice food and excellent service...I'll be back!

There are loads of chain restaurants in this location but as we have had good experience with Harvester elsewhere, we opted for what we thought would be a safe option. It was mid afternoon on a Saturday so the place was not that busy. The menu options were explained to us and after ordering we went to the salad bar. i discovered a chip on my glass but struggled to attract a waiter to get this rectified. When i did thye took away the glass and poured the remainder of my beverage in to a new glass. We waited a very long time for our main courses and we they arrived they looked unappetising. My medium steak looked really overcooked and this was the case. No one came for ages to ask if our meal was ok. I explained that the steak was very over done but by then we were on a tight timescale to get to the cinema upstairs. The waitress apologised and went to speak to the manager. The waitress returned some time later, not the manager. Not a good impression. She said they would discount our bill and as we had no time, offered ice creams to take to the cinema. the waitress did her best to redeem the situation but what about the manager? surely she should have come over! There is a lot of competition here so don't think we will be back

I won't be visiting this restaurant again. I ordered a plain omelette for my son. It came out with cheese so was sent back for the correct plain omelette. The waitress came back 5 minutes later and said the omelettes don't come without cheese. I would have thought basic food like this would be made on the premises but obviously not! I ordered a pasta dish instead, waiting over 15 minutes then cancelled it as everyone else had more than finished their meals. I won't be visiting again. I like my food to be at least semi fresh!!

Service was pretty bad staff were never to be found, waited a good ten minutes to be seated in a nearly empty restaurant is unacceptable to me.The food was okay, I was reasonably happy with mine by my partners £18 Sirloin Steak that was meant to me medium was dry as a bone and cremated, not what I'd expect from a restaurant the does grilled meat!I would have complained but my girlfriend didn't want to make a scene, we had cinema tickets booked and I had a 40% voucher which help but I was still very dissapointed.I usually visit the Hillingtdon branch and it appears I will continue to do so.

I have been here many times before but in the 24th of June the service was extremely slow. Drinks order is normally taken with the menu but on this occasion the waiters left us and came back @ 10 mins later the order was 1 fizzy and 1 tap water that took about another 10 mins. She would have been a lot quick if she was not having a conversation with another member of staff. Main meals sat under the warming lamps for a long time and it was only when I approached on my way to the ladies did she ask the chef if they were ready he was very gruff with her sayin of course they were. Now knowing where I was going as I said she continued to take the meals to the table thus by time I came back my chicken was on the cool side. I did say to another member of staff that the meal could have been hotter and she said she would tell the kitchen but I pointed out to her that I felt it was not their fault.I will not be in a rush to go back. This was a special occasion as my son got his uni results.

Myself and my partner stopped in here for a quick bite after snowboarding and were disappointed. After 5 minutes of waiting at the door before someone noticed us and sat us at a table we then waited a further 20 minutes before anyone came over to take as much as a drinks order when the restaurant was empty. We both ordered a veggie nacho burger which was lovely and came quick. However, we then waited 30 minutes on our bill. Most of the visit was spent trying to catch the waitresses attention.

We went here for lunch last Sunday and were very disappointed . We usually got the the Hillington one and it is excellent but this one in x-scape is awful.The salad bar was half empty and no-one bothered to fill it up for over half an hour despite customers pointing this out to staff. The manager appeared eventually and a whole after it was filled. The main meals were ok but my garden peas were like bullets! The rolls at the salad bar were overlooked and almost impossible to cut. And they weren't replenished the whole time we were in.It was not busy so there was no excuse for all of this.Obviously badlyManaged.

Have been receiving offers by email from Harvester for some time and when I received a 40% discount offer I decided to give it a go. It was outwith the normal lunchtime when we visited and there were only a few other diners in and we were asked to take whatever table we wanted.Had looked at their menu online, which was pretty extensive, but what it did not indicate, which was a pleasant bonus, was that there was a free salad bar and free refills of certain drinks and coffees.My wife and I had coffees, salad and for mains I had the smoked belly of pork,which came with sweet potato fries,buttered green beans and grilled apple. My wife had the grilled chicken, which came with garlic mash and peas, and as the do swaps on sides she selected a baked potato instead of the mash. Both mains were good and I would certainly have the pork again.Service was good and our server,Alana, was lovely and very attentive.With the discount our total bill was £15.12. Great value.Unusually, as it was a last minute decision to go to this restaurant, I did not read the Tripadvisor reviews before we went, as I probably would not have gone, and certainly our visit was OK and in our experience,did not warrant the poor reviews recently given.

Popped in with my sister before catching a movie. Waited 25 minutes to place food and drink order, reminded the waiter 15 minutes later we still had no drinks (2 cokes??) then got told to re pick my meal 3 times as veggie options were all sold out! Got offered 2 dishes not on the menu and opted for veggie bake. 1 hour and 10 minutes later told the waiter our film started in 20 minutes. Was brought or dinners and all I can say is I wouldn't have served my dog what they gave me. The veggie bake looked like a mound of mashed veg put under a grill and burned on top! On cutting into out it was raw and cold. My sister ordered the burger and thankfully cut it in half before eating and discovered it was pink and cold in the middle. The manager hid out the way and left a poor newbie waiter to deal with us. He explained the reason our dinner took so long was because my dish was from a really old menu and the had to search the bottom of the freezer for it and that because we were rushed (had waited 1 hour 20 minutes) they didn't have time to cook it properly.The moral of the story.......STAY WELL CLEAR!

Myself and my family visited this Harvester while I was visiting on holiday. We waited a long time for the rolls to be replenished. I found the steak of poor quality,chewy and not cooked to my request. When I asked for mustard,I was told they didn't do it! The waitress did go to check if there was any out the back anywhere,but alas my steak was mustardless! That totally ruined it for me. Won't be going back to Harvester again.

On being seated it was explained there was a problem with providing draught soft drinks and we could only buy bottles, also they were out of fish (at 5pm). When another waitress took our drink order (after listing our options) we all chose pepsi max which was warm, flat and the "syrup" wasn't quite right and when we later read the drinks menu our choice wasn't available in bottles so they had served us the problematic draught drink. The chicken and bacon were fatty and lacking in any flavour other than the BBQ they came smothered in. The black pudding with the mixed grill was the smallest and thinnest we had ever seen, yet it couldn't be cut through with a steak knife and was left on the plate and our "medium done" steaks came well done. We were asked a couple of times if everything was ok and I mentioned that the drinks were awful and they changed only one of the 4, and on paying the bill I said that the food was disappointing. The staff were polite young ladies but when asking about our experience they clearly didn't require an answer. There are so many eateries at Braehead I will definitely never return to the Harvester.

We arrived in xscape around 6.30pm and headed to Harvester, we were met by a young man who told us there was a 30minute wait, when I questioned why when there were so many empty tables, he said the kitchen was busy, we left our name and went back at 7pm. Alanya the girl who served us was lovely nothing was a bother to her, so attentive.The food was quite good, I had fish, my husband had BBQ spare ribs, he said they were very good, and my sister had the scampi which was fine.the salad bar was fine, although some of the dishes could have been topped up. The waffles with strawberries ice cream and cream was fantastic we had one to share as it was massive, all in all a nice enough meal, helped along by the lovely waitress. Thank you Alanya

We used to visit harvester on a regular basis but the menus have all changed, even the kids one. This being said, we had an okay experience here. Our food was okay but my son hardly ate his chicken. (it was hard and overcooked, he is only 2.) My daughter got chicken wings and only ate a few because she said they were too big and hard but what she ate she enjoyed, well...at least her face did. All in all, will we be back? Maybe....

We went here for lunch today thinking it would be family friendly for lunch, how wrong we were, the empty seats and obviously hungover host should have been a big giveaway, we were left to pick our own seat and then hunt down some cutlery as there was none on our table we also had to ask twice for a high chair for our 15 month old son, we ordered and we waited and waited our toddler was becoming more and more agitated, half an hour has gone by when our meals arrived the baby's meal was stone cold and the chicken was so overlooked it was hard on the outside, my 9 year old had very burnt sausages with cold dry obviously instant mash and congealed gravy, my gammon steak was stone cold and the fried egg was very burnt on the bottom and the yolk was dry and hard, my partner had a burger which was burnt, dried out and cold when I raised all this with the manager I was told that it was all down to the method of cooking and things were REHEATED when they needed to... So much for fresh eh?? The only saving grace for the manager was that he agreed with me when I said I wasn't prepared to pay for the food when we had barely touched it, hire new chefs and hosts that's why your empty also the manager served us these substandard meals please pay some attention to what your serving I know we're only customers but we still like good service and at least edible food.... Sad to say I won't be back nor my family this used to be a much better place to eat sad to see it go to the wall like this, change of management perhaps responsible???

Took my fiancee and two children for lunch, arrived and we were told to find our own seats as the hostess was busy. It was quiet so wasn't hard to find a seat but still not ideal to have to ask twice to get a high chair when you go in to a restaurant carrying a one year old. The drinks and ordering took place quickly enough but the food was slow, was pretty much look warm when it arrived and the plates were cold. My eldest son got sausage, mash and Yorkshire pudding which was cooked well and nice however the chicken strips that we had ordered for my one year old were dried out and over cooked. This unfortunately was the same for my fiancee's gammon steak with fried egg(the egg was particularly over done) and my hamburger tasted about as good as birds eye effort. We complained and the meals were comped so full credit to the staff for that one but the explanation that the grill drills the food out was pretty lame. would have thought restaurants would have counteracted that if they cooked primarily with a grill! All in all really disappointing considering I have been to other harvesters and they are usually pretty ok, it is what it is and I by no means expected anything but to get fed but they couldn't deliver on that. Manager did his best to make it up to us but standards should be higher considering that it was only the start of service on what should be a busy Saturday.

Went for a birthday dinner with 3 teenagers and 2 adults. We had hooked a table and were glad to have done so as it was busy as it was a Friday night. Seated quickly and the waitress took our order quickly. The first disappointment was the salad bar was empty. We tried on several occasions to go back in the hope it was replenished but it was poor and we eventually gave up. Secondly, the waitress got my order wrong. She admitted she had, however, by this time by fellow guests now had their dinner and I had to wait a further 15 minutes for mine. I wish it was worth it, it wasn't. I ordered the chorizo burger. It was a normal burger with 3 pieces of chorizo sausage on it. For £3 extra on a normal burger it was neither tasty nor worth its £10.99 price tag. The smallest portion of chips Accompanied it. As I had waited extra time and was now eating alone, as everyone else was finished, I thought they could have done better. 4 out of 5 had desserts. Chocolate fudge cake was excellent, the ice cream it came with was too small and tasteless. The brownie sundae was mushy and messy and not great. Bill for 5 was over £85. I have eaten in here at lunch time and always thought it good but dinner was very disappointing. Waitress disappeared as the night wore on as she had too many tables to serve. I complained to Harvester who have given me a £20 voucher, valid for 6 months. They acknowledged all the problems I had and have sighted staff problems as the cause. I will give them another go to use my Voucher and am hopeful for a better experience.

I went to Harvester after having a snowboarding lesson I was starving. The hostess who greeted us said it would be a 20 min wait and I could understand this as it was a Saturday night. After the 20 mins we were seated at a table then waited another 20 mins for a waitress to take our order. After the order was taken we waited 45 minutes on our meal to come. I had a bus to catch and was worried I was going to miss it as I never expected it to take so long to eat. The food was good but I had to rush it as I was now in a hurry after waiting so long, We were told there was only 3 staff in the kitchen trying to serve the whole restaurant. It was very poor service indeed.

I have now started working across the road so I thought I'd give this cafe a try and I must say I was not disappointed. The staff are very polite and you don't have to wait too long before someone serves you. The food comes quickly and is always absolutely piping hot. The menu is varied and it is often quite difficult to know what to have. This really is a little gold mine and well worth a visit or two or, like me, nearly every day.

We stayed in the HI before a flight out. We had no car so had to eat in this hotel restaurant. The room was fairly empty so we were seated right away. The menu was pretty extensive. The staff asked about food allergies and the chef actually came to the table to suggest appropriate dishes. Nice touch. The food was hot and fresh but not special. Adequate but not memorable. It was a bit expensive but when you are stuck at the hotel with no transport they can charge what they want. Basic but okay. The service was good though.

Food was tasty however weighing the slices from the carvery made my mum quite uncomfortable and when she started to eat her meal the meat was so sparsely cut that it was see through, I had the carvery salad which states to have 537kcal I would disagree given the same issue as mum the meat was incredibly thin therefore calorific value would have been less. Service, staff and atmosphere lovely but the food portioning …….. Disappointed to say the least

Ordered a tall filter coffee, usually get this as it's super quick. No filter coffee available, would I like an Americano for the same price? Not wanting to wait too long, as I had to be somewhere else, I said yes. Waited a while for the order, collected my order and rushed out as I had to be somewhere. Reason I waited so long was they had brewed the filter and they gave me the wrong size. Didn't realise until I was back at the car. Also bought Halloween pumpkin chocolate brownie, a bit expensive for the quality.
