On approaching the restaurant walked past 3 kitchen staff smoking sitting on the grit bins. Booked table online as thought maybe busy but was surprised to find it quite quiet, took ten minutes to get the attention of the waitress to order our drinks and food and then another 50minutes for me to ask and point out that our food was waiting on the serving hatch for the last 5minutes. And then waited an age for us to be offered the desert menus to de the staff then clearing a table that had been left for an hour. The salad bar was poor and half empty and hearing families being told it would be an hour and half for a table when there was only a max of 4 tables with people eating didn’t seem right. On speaking to a staff member was told it was because they have been taken over by the hawth and half the staff have been sacked and the the rest have been cut right back so was only two serving staff on shift.

Omg what a terrible place. When approaching the restaurant there was a group of people all smoking out of the fire exit which seemed to be the staff. We went in only to stand for ages to be seated by by a girl who couldn’t even say hello or look at us. She then seated us at a dirty table which I refused to sit at so moved. We were handed menus in silence and then waited and waited for the waitress to come back. Whilst waiting a couple got up and went to the counter to pay. They were there for ages and in the end they walked out without paying. We decided we didn’t want to wait any longer or give our money over to the restaurant so got up and left. Managed need to be hired that know how to manage and take on staff that actually want to work and not out the fire exit mucking around

Came here for breakfast because we're travelling. The service was so slow and although there were people "floating", it seemed only one young lady was working. Taking orders, serving, showing people to the tables. Ordered coffee which took forever and my husband went to find out where it was. Sitting on a tray and another young girl said "I'm working on it"! Really? Food eventually came out, and to be honest, it wasn't very warm. The kitchen was open to see, and the chef was serving some food with his fingers, then putting food in his mouth. Cutlery wasn't overly clean either, and if we hadn't been hungry with little option for an alternative, I wouldn't have stopped. Certainly won't be coming here again. Not sure how they cope with a full restaurant.

This was the worst experience we have had at any Harvester. We went late afternoon so not very busy, but at first glance tables had not been cleared and staff were not very attentive, more interested in talking to each other. The salad bar was empty and no one was looking to top up. When ordering half the items we chose were not available and when the food we did manage to order arrived it was poorly delivered, looked as if it had just been plonked on the plate and in my case the jacket potatoes was not fully cooked, still hard. We waited an age for someone to come and clear our table but looking around there were many tables where people had finished and left and the tables had just been left with dirty plates and glasses. In the end I had to insist that a young waitress cleared our table before we looked at the desert menu. Really really poor, we won't be going there again and I will think twice about using a Harvester again.

We are a family of 7 who decided to visit on a Saturday night after visiting family. We booked in advance and upon arrival waited 10+ minutes to be seated. We were sat on a wobbly table right by the door with a 4 month old baby on a cold night. which we put up with we ordered our meals and went to the salad cart with was practically empty. Our meals arrived and the restaurant felt like it got colder considering it was -2 outside. Only 2 members of staff were visible front of house. 30 minutes later they came to give us the dessert menus and left the dirty plates on the table. The waitress came back about 20 minutes later and took our dessert menus but still failed to clear our table. 20 minutes later 5 of the 6 desserts arrived I asked the waitress where the 6th was and she said I’ll check where it was. From where we were sat we could see the serving hatch and my dessert was sat getting cold. 30 minutes later after everyone had finished I said to the waitress that I was still waiting, we could see it sitting waiting to be served and that I wanted it taken off the bill which she commented I have been busy. By this time there were approximately 6 tables in the restaurant eating and all the tables were sat in coats and scarves due to how cold the restaurant was and at least 6 dirty tables where people had left and there wasn’t the staff to clear them. We have visited this restaurant several times on the past and it’s always been ok however this time we were left extremely disappointed and frustrated with the lack of service.

After working out where the car park was for this restaurant which we couldn't see anywhere where you had to pay if there even was chargeable hour to pay.We got greeted by one of the happiest waiter I've ever been served by he was a young man which I'm really sorry I didn't catch his name but he needed a five star given to him.I really felt for the staff here they seemed to be under staffed which in my opinion was why the food was taking so long we waited for nearly a hour for our dinner.Which I enjoyed my chicken bacon and waffle the other half had chicken and ribs which has to be the smallest portion sizes I've ever seen definitely wasn't worth the bill off over£47.00 and just the combination of small portion and time waiting is why I gave this 2 star

arrived at the harvester on saturday evening really looking forward to a meal as there are no harvesters in our area and this was a treat before we flew from gatwick airport on our holidays, what a total disappointment. we had not booked as were unsure what time we would arrive but being only 2 of us hoped we would be able to get in. when we arrived and walked around the building we we pleasantly suprised to see that there were plenty of spaces but on going in and asking for a table we were told that they couldnt fit us in as they had 2 large tables to serve. looked around and there were 2 tables of 8-10 people seated, thought they were joking but no..... when we returned from holiday on a wednesday we thought we would try again but when we walked around this time the restaurant was busy and again worried we wouldnt get in but were greeted at the door by a group that were leaving who said they had waited 2 hours for their food and the meat they had received was only fit for their dog, they showed us inside the venue that there were queues around the salad bar as is was empty. again we left without eating......this has really destroyed my faith in harvester

I had a birthday voucher which was very nice. When we arrived we were told we were late, by 3 minutes because they were dealing with the people in front of us who they turned away. Then were told they were closing in 10 minutes, at 7.45pm ! We were eventually seated after the server had a chat with the kitchen staff to see if they would cook for us. We had no cutlery, there was hardly any salad, drinks had mostly run out at the refill. What a terrible experience for your birthday. They need more experienced staff that are not rude and can do their jobs

Food average - missing alot of items. Went for breakfast. The mentioned no beans and mushrooms. Was able to get something else instead. It turned up. No black pudding. Asked about it. Server was having a joke with the chef. When she mentioned food items all I can hear. "We don't worry about" asked for another egg instead as I had already started the breakfast. My egg sat under the heat lamps for 5 mins. I had to ask if my egg can be collected. Service horrific We arrive and got seated 10 mins later someone was over, bearing mind the restaurant was empty. They had 4 people on. When the manager pointed at us, our server then decided to have a chat with the person working the bar. Fast forward to then end of the meal. We had finished and were waiting a further 10-15 mins for plates and bill. Our server kept walking past our table to other empty tables. Then chilling at the bar with a drink. I had to glad someone down to collect the plates and get the bill. Payed the bill and was offered a recipient. I took the offer then was told this is the terminal that is out of paper. Still need the receipt. Came back "as I have paid they cannot transfer it to another terminal to get my receipt. Then just started at me. I needed the receipt. They gave no alternative. By far the worst harvester I have ever been to. There are plenty of nicer places in the area. I suggest going elsewhere

We was greeted by a lovely gentleman, can’t remember his name but once my family and I got chatting to him, he mentioned he was from Romania. We was there to have a meal for my step brothers 5th birthday and all I can say is that the service was impeccable. The staff were so kind and considerate, despite the restrictions surrounding COVID-19. Whilst we was eating our deliciously cooked meals (compliments to the chef/s) the staff were faced with some challenging customers who were visiting in more than groups of six and tried to get away with not paying for their meal, but the staff handled it so very well and I really appreciated their effort and patience when de-escalating the situation. I genuinely sat there before I left I though, I’d love to work here, the team seem so lovely and approachable. Keep up the good work guys, I’ll be sure to visit again soon!

I visited this place with 3 of my other mate who were on our way to Brghton so we decided to stop by for a very early lunch (we were the first ones there). When we ordered the food, (I got the Mixed Grill), we were told to go to the Salad Station where the waiter gave us our salads. The only problem was he didn't give us enough time to finish our salads. I mean, I am actually a quick eater but I didn't even manage to finish half my food. When the good came, it was all well and good except the black pudding tasted as if it had gone off. I'm not a black pudding lover but it tasted as if it had gone completely off. However, I didn't mention this because I just wanted to finish our food and leave. This was hard to do, considering the rump steak was so chewy it gave my jaw a real workout. I don't usually expect too much from a Harvester but my one in Beulah Spa is far superior.

Me and a friend arrived at around 6.45pm for dinner to a virtually empty restaurant....we were served throughout the evening by Jeanette. Main courses arrived nice and quickly, however one of our burgers was completely wrong and had to be sent back to be remade. No apology of the mistake unfortunately. Correct burger took quite a long time to appear and once it did arrive, the burger was still not up to scratch. The other burger was very rare, and in some places verging on raw. After eating, we had no offer of a desserts menu as the waitress didn't return to our table for at least 30 minutes....by this time we were ready to go and finally grabbed her attention to ask for the bill. Disappointing service and food, considering the restaurant was very quiet...usually the standard is much better. Would have been nice to have had an apology for the mistakes made.

It was really nice, to go in and have all the new policies explain to you.It’s a bit strange not being able to get your own salad. But the young man who was on the salad bar got everything you asked for.Out drinks were also delivered to us and we could ask for as many refills as we needed.Food you couldn’t fault. And their puddings were also amazing as always.

Went to Harvester with my partner and we both agree that Tamas, who served us, was very attentive and also cheerful and energetic. We didn’t go unnoticed yet the attention wasn’t over the top. Just the right amount so if you like to order something you don’t have to wait around but there isn’t someone to check if every bite you have taken has been satisfactory. He also explained the Coronavirus safety measures to us. As someone who needs time to make up my mind I struggled with salad bar as you cannot choose your portions and see all the options. There is a person who asks what would you like and puts the salad in the bowl for you. For someone slightly indecisive like me it adds a pit of pressure though but I can understand it’s done with safety in mind. Overall we both had a great time and it’s good to know that Harvester takes part of the scheme where government pays half the customer’s bill on certain days.I would recommend going there but definitely book a table beforehand as it can get busy.

Took a few minutes to be acknowledged at the door. Sat down and then took a long time for the waitress to come over.Most of the items on the salad cart had run out and there was no white rolls left. This was on a friday night and the restaurant was half empty.The fountain soft drinks were near flat.The main courses were poor at best. The majority of the chips I was served were the dregs from the bottom of the fryer, the sweetcorn was tasteless and full of water and the chicken quite rubbery. We was never asked how the food was by our server. When we were brought the bill it was just put on the table without saying a word. Another thing was it was really cold in there.Overall poor service and poor food, with no standards. The only reason we went was because we had a groupon voucher.

This was the 3rd time visiting this particular restaurant in CrAwley. The first time my gammon was like leather and the jacket potato was definitely old, the 2nd time having a salad as a main course was given a small bowl and had to keep going back to the salad cart and being disabled was a challenge to keep getting up and down and last Saturday we booked a table for the evening meal and when we got there was kept waiting for 10 mins for someone to come and see us and take us to a table. There were empty tables And the girl on the desk was new and didn’t know how to book us in. We were waiting for someone to come so gave up in the end and walked out. There was no one to inform about us leaving. It was a busy time we know but there just was not enough staff for that time of day. Needless to say we will not be going back. We thought we had given it another chance but we’re let down again. I am afraid you lost out that evening and now in the future.. we won’t be recommending you because of the bad service which is a shame as we have never been let down in other Harvester Reataurants.

We had booked and pre-ordered our meals. The mushrooms were reasonable but cold. The salmon was dry, tasteless served with vetable mush and sauté potatoes. Probably the worst main course I have had in many many years. I finished off with the Christmas pudding which arrived as a slice with a pot of custard but in fairness was the only better part of the meal. When my plate was collected after the main course I said to the waiter that the salmon and vegetables were horrible but no one came to follow this up. One of our party gave me a bit of steak from his combo - like leather!! Disappointing is an understatement! I shall never be back.

Dear Harvester,After a terrible experience at Bowling we thought we would cheer ourselves up at The Harvester near the leisure complex. Things did not start well at all. We walked in and had to wait several minutes for the woman to notice us and then she walked past and stuck a finger up at us. Whilst my wife was attending to her bodily functions my son noticed we did not have any forks on our table. I asked a waiter if we could have some. He returned and gave them to us but was rather reluctant for some reason. Then we had to wait for bowls for the salad bar as my daughter says some people just turn up eat the salad bar and leave. I had three bread rolls with butter. The food itself was ok however my son was very upset that the restaurant had some how managed to run out of ketchup. I have never heard of this before. Surely there is some stock management reordering process? My son in his wisdom or lack of it ordered extra chicken with his make your own wrap. My son had eaten so much pasta from the salad bar and drunk so much fizzy refreshment that by the time the mains arrived he could hardly eat it. Luckily my wife wrapped the chicken in napkins (and she's vegan) and we fed the cat and one of the kittens who ate it greedily when we got home. They also got in on things and drank as much water as they wanted, asking for refills. Then we came to pay the bill and my wife tried to use a code which clearly stated £5 off when you spend over £20 and the bill was a lot more than that. The manager was called over and refused the money off deal as the voucher was not deemed to be valid for some strange reason. I was so tired at this point and distraught with all the upset I paid and did not leave a tip to show the staff their poor attitude will not be rewarded.In light of the dreadful experiences I would like a private table for my family, a free bottle of Proseco and free meals for all of us. I would also like pudding this time as we were going to have one but remembered we had an unopened Birthday cake from my sons birthday from the other week. I hardly slept last night thinking about it and my wife was shaking with rage when I left her this morning. Best Wishes, John.

We went for mother's day here in the evening, service took a little long but not unusual for the harvester, waitresses was nice and polite, although looked like she had a busy day, another waitress seemed to be tired and looked like her feet were hurting , starters came out was all ok, mains came out and I ordered the triple, I was shocked by getting ribs with my meal instead of chicken breast and the gravy looked like it was microwaved. All three main meals were wrong.

The team here used to be excellent, perhaps staff have changed. Arrived just as lunch was beginning, the restaurant was quiet yet it took ages to be acknowledged & seated. The waitress was abrupt & unprofessional, after waiting a good 15 minutes without being offered so much as a drink, we decided to take our business elsewhere!

Had phone them for a family party of 9 for my husbands birthday. We arrived at 5.20pm for our reservation for 17.30 we were all stood in the door way for 10 minutes we had to go and find someone to say we had arrived. Shown to our seat given a menu and never saw anyone else for over half an hour again we had to get up and ask if anyone was coming to take our order!!! Never asked if we wanted drinks and help our self to the salad bar. When our food came which by this time was 18.45 which was absolutely disgusting service for a restaurant!! We never even had a waitress when the food arrived it was not even suitable to eat we had hard raw chips. Burger was not presented small and cut of the tomato cheese not even melted bun was wet and soggy, could for the Manager to take it away as was not happy my daughter's dinner was wrong asked for medium steak it was so well done could not chew or even cut it gammon was cold and raw again called over the Manager and said to take it away!!! No the Birthday I wanted for my husband's 60th we certainly will not go back there again. And I would not recommend this to anyone for a big Birthday meal. Very very upset and a huge disappointment,

We had a wowcher voucher that needed to be used and in hindsight would rather have wasted it. Sat down and explained we had this voucher and placed the order as per what was allowed with the exception of replacing rice with chips. Had to say yes this is allowed to everything that we ordered, gave her the code and we may have well have been Martians and she had to go off with my phone for several minutes.

The staff are always really friendly at this Harvester which is lovely however the food wasn't good. We had the free salad to start. The bowls for the salad were all dirty and we are not fussy people but there was bits of food left on them, black and sticky marks.. the potato for the potato salad was so hard.. For the main courses I had the original combo and my partner had the combo 83. Both our chicken was cooked lovely as were the chips, however the ribs hardly had any meat on just lots of fat and grizzle.. We would not return again in a hurry unfortunately..

Went with a friend early evening during the week. The waitress was attentive but not overbearing and was very friendly. The food came quickly and was of a high quality. We both enjoyed our meals and felt it was value for money. Will definitely be back. One request - please put skinny fries back on the menu!

Having visited with my work colleagues to this harvester, I was expecting a reasonable visit as been in many harvesters before. I firstly struggled to understand the lady behind the bar when I ordered a drink due to her very poor English. When my food arrived I was humiliated by the waitress who didn’t clearly state what I had ordered so I didn’t recognise when she arrived with the food. Also when I did get my food, the chicken and the chips were nothing more than deep fried in lots of oil that left me feeling sick later on in the afternoon. I felt that given the £15 price tag for this dish and the £4.50 charge for the beer I would have received better service, sadly this wasn’t the case. I absolutely wouldn’t recommend this venue to anyone and would recommend a few changes.

Went for breakfast with my boyfriend. After 5 minutes of sitting down, two different servers were badgering us for our order and were very rude when I needed a few more minutes and rolled their eyes. I felt very uncomfortable and they made me feel unwelcome and anxious about deciding when I have allergies. Awful experience. Couldn't sit in there any longer and left. Awful awful.

It's great to find this restaurant on the leisure park. We had a great dining experience here, the staff were excellent, friendly, attentive, welcoming and they ensured we had everything we needed. The restaurant is clean, tidy, well decorated and well laid out. The menu is extensive and has something for everyone. The salad cart was maintained well and the food came hot, well presented and very tasty. There is a large free car park that services the whole park with plenty of disabled marked bays. Its not one of the biggest Harvesters we have been to but it was one of the best. We will definately be returning on our next visit to Crawley.

So in the harvester for me and my girlfriends anniversary and not imprest so far. starter was nachos and I'm sorry but how the hell can you mess up nachos but they did to much sour cream and over grilled and no cheese at all melted on it. my other half had "peri peri chicken sticks" well I'm sorry the sauce wasn't peri peri and it was bland as anything. Can it get any worse.

On arrival two members off staff smoking outside the entrance door, went in to be greeted by a very unpleasant lady who clearly didn't want to be there , she came to take our order and was very rude and blunt, so we waited for our breakfast, collected our coffee and toast the breakfast came out very quickly so was clearly not freshly cooked, on try the food most of it was cold as well as cold coffee not great , the three tables around us all sent there food back saying it was cold only to be brought replacement cold food, we asked for the bill which never came so we went to pay at the bar and said again it was cold so they offered to only change for half the cold food we received, no apology very poor service and very bad attitude so will never return.

What can I say. A big thank you to the staff for accommodating us at a moments notice. I was supposed to be dining at Frankie and Benny's. That was an epic fail We ended up in the harvester. Such a more relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff. I ordered a standard rib which was massive. If considering eating at Frankie and Bennys come to Harvester instead.

Big group lunch visit. All round ok but I drew the short straw. Generally food and service were fine but my order was ridiculous! Went for the chilli stuffed peppers served with chips and rice. I took the option to swap chips for a jacket potato. What arrived was the smallest pepper I’ve ever seen with about a tablespoon of chilli-the chef even apologised for how small the pepper was! And it can with both chips and a jacket potato, but I had to ask for the rice to be delivered. Not sure how they got it so wrong but everything else went off without a hitch. Fine for a cheap and cheerful pit stop, don’t expect too muxh!

Three of us visited the Harvester on Friday evening for a meal. Our mains came out with three sauces we ordered. 2x peppercorn which was great and one which was meant to be whiskey and mushroom I can only describe it as being the consistency of dishwater which once poured over the steak didn't make much of a difference. When asked for a new one we had to wait a further 20 mins which we had nearly finished our meal by then! When it arrived it was still not the correct sauce it was what I can describe as baby sick with bits of veg. We were on the verge of walking by this point but decided you can't get desserts wrong.....well my banoffee profiteroles sundae with Bailey's came with two tiny profiteroles no banana in site, even though states on the menu freshly cut banana and couldn't even taste any Bailey's. I will not be back as this is unreasonable and no apologies I had to even ask for them to take sauces off the bill!!

Staying at Gatwick so took a taxi to Harvester Crawley for food. The food was good, large ribs, unlimited salad and a rocky horror to finish. All cooked well and tasty. Nice choice of fizzy drinks and reasonable price. Well worth the trip.

Harvester is een leuk restaurant met een gevarieerd menu. Het concept is dat je onbeperkt zelf salade kunt pakken tegen een meerprijs. Ook bieden ze andere gezonde opties aan. Wat dan wel jammer is, is dat je je eigen frisdrank onbeperkt kunt bijvullen. Iets tegenstrijdig. Personeel was aardig en we hadden het eten snel op tafel. Prima ervaring.

Stopped here for breakfast after being at Into The Wild festival. Paid £8.99 for all you can eat and drink breakfast. They had a vast array of items including self service cereals, yoghurts, fresh fruits, dried fruits, muffins, crumpets, breads, butters, jams, spreads, juices, coffee. I had muffin and crumpet which I toasted myself, yoghurt and granola. Then a waitress asked what cooked breakfast we wanted and how many of each item, I had 2 sausages, 3 bacon, beans, black pudding, hash browns, grilled tomato and 2 poached egg. I had a choice of how I had my eggs done and a choice of chips with my breakfast if I wanted. The sausages were delicious, they were Cumberland and juicy, cooked well, very tasty. My eggs were overdone which was a bit of a shame as I like a runny yolk, I would specify next time, it didn't spoil my breakfast but did disappoint me as I'm not a lover of hard eggs, and a poach egg is meant to come with a golden runny yolk, not be like a rubber ball. Overall I enjoyed my breakfast, I would definitely go back and would likely choose a different cooked egg, and specify runny or order scrambled. Service was good, we were seated quickly. It was a nice table, lovely atmosphere, clean, warm and inviting. I would have given 5 stars if my egg had been served soft, so because if that I've given 4 stars. I would still recommend, great value for money and lovely place.
