Harvester Cooper Dean Bournemouth in Bournemouth

Excellent service and Heather was an amazing waitress and even brought our 2 year old daughter a small bowl of ice cream as she was upset that they had ran out of cones as we were all sharing a lovely Rocky Horror desert

Quite a delay on serving breakfast but there was 10 in my party

The server Heather was polite very friendly and went above and beyond, she’s an asset to your company. The chef George I couldn’t fault steak cooked to perfect and chicken was succulent and tasty. Will definitely be returning 😊

Great service from Heather and lovely food.

Came here in a rush, served quickly by heather who was amazing with the small child in the group, service was great, as well as breakfast!

Heather severed us on our way to airport, we were a large group and nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for great service.

All good. Friendly waitress. Now you have to enter your car number into a machine to avoid charges. They have now removed salmon from the menu. (Not good for my wife who is not a meat eater)

Absolutely disgusted to receive a parking fine at the cooper dean harvester. Having arrived in the evening when dark and raining, did not look for any signs. Was not told about registering my car at any point during my meal. Lovely evening but now spoilt will never return and will ensure others know as well. Point to add I have been to other restaurants that do this and the first thing the server asks whether our car has been registered. A lack of customer service at Cooper Dean.

Had a lovely morning having breakfast here today Rachel was absolutely incredible. Very attentive and so helpful.

We were served by Rachel who was absolutely great we all had a lovely breakfast

Bloody nice breakfast served by Rachel Great poached eggs jacob

Came in for breakfast this morning served by bubbly Rachel couldn't fault the service and the food.

Rachel is an amazing waitress. Very happy, friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

Good food good service. went there many times and never was disappointed

Arrived at 9pm Sunday greeted with we are closing in 30 mins !! We were not informed of the need to give our vehicle registration number. Two days later we received a parking ticket of £100 each for a 30 mins drink Fortunately the pub did get the tickets lifted but the whole experience has made us avoid this place in the future.

food was nice, steaks were cooked well, balance bowl was really good, waitress rachel was great- polite, attentive and friendly xxx

Rachel was so friendly welcoming and helpful

Heather, the lady in the restaurant is really very nice and polite. She took good care of us. Thank you Heather. You re a star....!!! 👍👍👍

Heather was great, quick and efficient, food was great too

Great service from Heather today ! Very efficient and friendly !

Heather was very kind and welcoming, lovely staff

Rachel always goes above and beyond with her cheery manner and excellent service. We so enjoy our regular girls get together on the round table. 😍 Many thanks Rachel

This place needs to close and reopen with a new approach to customer service. Gobsmacked to be told that we were lucky to be allowed in as they were closing early due to lack of customers. They advertise opening hours...but clearly don't stick to them. We were shown to a dirty table, then the staff had a disagreement and we were told to move to another table elsewhere. The food was so basic, the chef clearly had no idea on how to cook a medium-rare steak...I know it's just a Harvester, but surely a steak can be cooked right? The peas, well...the life has been cooked out of them. The mushroom? Well... shriveled and dehydrated - appalling. The salad was being cleared away and they stopped when they realised we hadn't had ours yet - and we got to choose from the few pots that were left. The Guinness, well I wouldn't wish it on someone that I don't like! All in all, we felt like an absolute inconvenience from start to finish. Don't go here, unless you love disappointment.

Some staff were running around like headless chickens, others walked around gormlessley not knowing their left to right. Food took ages to come out, when it did the order was incorrect, we had to ask more than twice for our drinks. Wouldn’t return as when questioned there was no apology from the staff and the tip was auto added onto the bill.

Rachel who served made our day with her bright smile and very warm personality. Had vegetarian breakfast and it was so delicious

Nice cosy place with friendly staff and a lovely lady served us on the day when we went to have lunch there upon arriving in Bournemouth town.I believe her name was Deborah she was kind, and sociable and made our experience very pleasant. So much so that we returned the next morning to have breakfast there too. Thank you and we hope to be back soon.

Our waitress Elina was extremely helpful towards my partner explaining allergies. Food was cooked perfectly and service was quick and pleasant.

Very lovely service by Elina at the harvester in Cooper dean. Very friendly and happy, service with a smile. Thank you for making our visit pleasant.

Lovely food, hit & tasty. Our sever, Elina, was kind & helpful. Thank you!

So yesterday I went for 40% off there new menu which is cool but I used to love salad cart especially the coleslaw but when had the coleslaw yesterday omg it tasted disgusting very buttery and and a kick to it even my boy who loves his food eats most things even spat it out so won't be having salad cart for a while unless goes back to the original coleslaw as that was the best bit for me big disappointment that's all I can say for the first time never enjoyed the salad cart one bit 🤮

Served by Terri. Cheer. Charming cheerful and warming.... obviously she's gonna be one major reason I'd be back at harvester

Our server today was Heather, very attentive, very polite. She is a credit to your company!

Excellent food and staff were helpful and knowledgeable

The best services Rachel was lovely

Rachel was an amazing waitress and helped with everything food was lovely will definitely be coming back and will highly recommend.

Everything was pleasant. The staff were friendly and efficient. The waitress even told me about an offer I could use on the main meals, which I didn’t know about, so that was a lovely surprise. Mostly, the food was great, so I would definitely recommend a visit to anyone who is thinking of dining out somewhere, either for lunch, or an evening meal. The wait for food and service wasn’t too long, even though it was busy. The only thing I’d say, is that when we sat down, there were only two knives in the cutlery pot on the table, so we had to reach out to another table to get forks, but that’s only a minor thing. On the whole, it was a lovely dining experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

Plenty of parkibg spaces, register car reg when you enter at main door! Rachel was very professional, drinks served very quickly, Rachel checked on us to see if everything was ok when we was eating our main meal, offered puddings. Rachel was also very welcoming and very polite throughout our visit

We usually go here for breakfast or brunch and we are happy with Mr. nice guy server but today’s server is Mrs.grumpy and not smiling at all. The teapot’s beak is dirty as well as the cup has stains on the outer part.

Staff very friendly, but food cold, no soft ice cream - ordered ribs for my son they come out plan bbq ribs with no bbq sauce, no bbq sauce in restaurant. Drinks come out after we had already finished our salad bowls, had to ask twice, Really disappointed with the whole thing.

Amazing food, served very quickly and Heather our waitress made us feel very welcome. Always smiling, and unwittingly kind. Thank you very much. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

Really good visit, I made a mistake when booking table and only put 2 instead of 4 (2kids) but they kindly squeezed us all in even tho they were pretty chocca. Our server Terri was amazing, really friendly and attentive and great with the kids which made my 6year old in particular feel really special. Also helped with ordering and using the app which was great as I’m rubbish at that sort of thing. So grateful :-) Toilets could have done with a bit of a clean and tidy.

Was not impressed with the dessert ask for lemon blizzards but was not whipped ice cream just 2 scoop of vanilla ice cream never said machine wasn,t working . Ice cream was full of ice bit and for the price wasn,t brilliant.

Very surprised by nice new menu, certainly different to what we expected and delicious. Our waitress Rachel was brilliant and added to our Happy mood Thank you.

Laura was our waitress. Food was okay but took a while to arrive. Really friendly and amazing service would come back again.

Laura, fantastic server. Bubbly, helpful and always smiling. Couldn't do enough for me. Excellent food. Fresh and perfectly cooked harvester grill.

Rachel was our sever today, lovely and amazing serviced. Always happy, going above and beyond making sure we’re all happy with our food. Fast and fresh food 100% would come again. Lovely staff and amazing atmosphere.

Lady called elina served us never had such a pleasant waitress ever so happy and friendly and very good at her job she should be a trainer for all staff to act like her and make the visit enjoyable many thanks elina today

Eling was fantastic, really friendly and helpful.

Basic lunch nothing to write home about. It hasn't improved since the last time visited. The salad display very messy and food basic. Chips were ok lol The only real change is the prices have increased becoming poor value

Harvester was beautiful in every way, service, food & ambience.

Me and my grandparents had a lovely meal today, great service and friendly staff. We had a lovely waitress Rachel. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Javi served us was great. He was funny, attentive and gave us great service with a smile! Thanks Javi

Food good, we all liked the salad bar

We were lucky to have Rachel as our waitress. What a lovely lady. I have Coeliac. Usually there is some hoop j have to jump through before I get food. Not here though. Rachel bought Over a tablet with all the information on. She found what I wanted and advised me. It was so easy. We had the chicken skewers with the Golden rice. I can highly recommend it. Thankyou for making things so easy Rachel.

I always love coming to Harvester at Cooper dean and Heather is a darling

All good thanks Heather was amazing

The food was amazing service was really good and we even brought a sauce of them to take home 🤣

Heather made my visit on a first date really special - VIP service - we will be back

Went for my Dad's 88th birthday meal and service, food and whole experience was great as always! Our waitress Laura was helpful, attentive, efficient and lovely and smiley. The only thing that could have been improved was the dinner arrived a bit quickly which didn't give us much time to eat our salads but that's just a minor thing. We loved it and will be back! Thanks Donna

Great service as always. Heather was lovely.

Fab food. Great service, Laura was lovely.

Very happy lunch we had at the harvester Cooper Dean Rachel gave us great service 5 start

Food very good, service a little slow as the place was busy lucky to get a table so quick.

Delicious food, awesome service, very surprised the increase in all round quality since my last visit to a harvester! Elina, our server was extremely helpful, polite & friendly.

Stopped by for a quick meal. Love the salad bar but our jacket potato was over cooked, peas hard and gravy gloopy so not so good.

Decided to have our ladies lunch today here with friends one of whom had moved away but was visiting. Food was delicious, Alison looked after us very well. Lovely and relaxed atmosphere. Thank you 😊

Thanks to the chefs and waiters, especially Allison for always smiling and making our day Will make sure to visit back

Food was lovely, seated straight away, brilliant table service and service all around from Alison, will definitely be returning here for breakfast

Friendly waiter ( he was from spain I believe made our visit tbh ! ) very chatty made us feel very welcome having said that even though the restaurant was very busy. The salad bar was rather grubby we didnt wait too long for our meal we had the original spitroast chicken wasnt the best was quite dry but we did enjoy our icecream afterwards.we was on a break way so just travelling through have been to better harvesters but it's always very good value and wouldn't hesitate to use harvester again .

The service was amazing food came too us within minutes of us ordering.

We choose exactly what we had in Scotland 3 weeks previous.. not as tender or as tasty the chicken was very dry, coleslaw was not the best.. I didn't touch mine as it did not look that appetising. Hopefully it was a one off

First time visiting this harvester and we was very impressed! Very friendly staff and speedy service. Laura was our waitress and she did an amazing job.

Rachel is very cheerful and friendly and professional! Much appreciated for her pleasant service!

food was brilliant. service was fantastic. sadly the chairs are all torn and tatty and need replacing which is the biggest let down

Alison served us, she was very happy and very helpful giving us a lovely service, will come back again the food was exactly how I expected at a reasonable price

Great friendly service from Elina

Such a shame the food was not as good as it should have been. You shouldn't really go wrong with fish and chips, but the fish batter was soo greasy and the peas shrivelled. Not a great meal.very disappointed.

Friday night...7pm...sold out of a lot of food already?!?! Not really busy, hardly any cars in the carpark and you were still left for ages between getting drinks ordered and food ordering etc. Then the desert is sent to us (hardly any also available). Go for a shake £6.50 to not actually be told you can't have all the toppings and instead were given a tiny pot of munchies to be spread across 4 people who all had the same desert. I was expecting candy floss as a topping. Not impressed - appears to have gone down hill of late.

Had a lovely meal, and our waitress Heather was really great. Will be returning.

Went to dine in but was told it was a 40 wait, so we decided to go home and do click and collect.. the service was awful, but the food was ok, for the price I was expecting the wow factor. Not sure why they ask you??? the flavor of ribs you’d like because there was no sauce on them!

Was really welcoming and friendly Good quick service would definitely go again. Staff are very kind and friendly

Our server was lovely and very attentive, unfortunately that was all the good I can offer. Placed our order, went to salad bar and they bought out our starters before we had even got back to the table ( we had asked for starters to come with the mains as side dishes) or before our drinks even came. No cutlery was on the table either. After finishing our salad we then waited nearly an hour for our mains, by this point our daughter was becoming very bored with waiting. Food arrives, mostly lukewarm apart from the chips which is obviously what they had been waiting for while everything else was plated up sitting under the heat lamp. Fine, atleast it won't be too expensive as had voucher for kids eat for £1(save some money). WRONG! They have added a net VAT which was £10. Since when do the harvester charge VAT. So basically we didn't get a cheap child's meal as it was just as expensive or even more. Won't be heading back there for family meals any time soon.

Warm service and good value food

Our waiter, Elena was wonderful.

Came in for lunch with a colleague and not only was the food excellent but the service was absolutely exemplary! Alison was very polite and friendly and nothing was too much trouble, a credit to your business. I would recommend to all of my friends and family. Thank you.

Was great food was served by heather amazing service totally recommend coming here although the price it’s worth the money good food

Me and my boyfriend came for a a late lunch was told it would be a long wait but food was actually very fast food tasted great and our server Heather was really lovely and happy she was also very quick.

We had a lovely family meal this evening. The food was all lovely and our waitress Rachel was very friendly and provided an excellent service. Thank you!

Lovely service, sorted a problem with no issues, extra food supplied due to lack of amount served.

Great Harvester experience. Elina our server was brilliant, kind and attentive.

Very Lovely Atmosphere amazing service tasty food and our waitress Elina very kind Very friendly and an all together lovely waiter From Sarah and Family

Food was lovely kids meal have got smaller than what they were didn't get asked about allergies as I have a server nut allergy and couldn't have chips with my steak as they are fried in the same fryer as the veggie burger?

This evening had a meal with my daughter and grandson. Everything was excellent. Very clear and concise instructions. Anybody worried about the virus you have nothing to worry about using this Harvester. Will definitely be back soon. Thanks for making it a great time, with lovely food and drinks served by excellent staff.

Background music way too loud for the small number of diners in the restaurant. ALWAYS delicious and hot meals. Plenty of good choices. Salad bar always fresh and tasty.

Value for money. Has to be up there. Good portions and then the obligatory salad bar Still the same stuff. Wouldn't have minded being able to order from the table. Wouldn't take our Blue Light card. Had be on an App?

Thank you Heather for the great service. Good food after a beach day

Our server Terri was fabulous! She was so lively and polite…. Thank you for maki g our evening enjoyable.
