Harvester Horse & Groom Polegate in Wealden

Food was good, always enjpy the salad bar. I had the dirty bird burger. Was a bit dry but nothing a bit of the kicking Garlic sauce couldn't sort. Our server, a lovely lady called Sam, was lovely and made us feel at home by cracking jokes. She was super helpful and kind. A real credit to your business.

Always nice and fresh food from the grill, however salad bar at times leaves a lot to be desired. Only serves breakfast at weekends which is shame as the breakfast is wonderful. Restaurant in desperate need of a refurbishment

Lovely barmaid. Food was great too.

Really friendly place food was nice but a little expensive

Nice staff and pretty good grub. Good location.

We was welcomed with a smile when we arrived. Had Izzy as our waitress. Good service, good food and great atmosphere. A completely different dining experience to the poor one we had at Sovereign Harbour recently.

Stopped for lunch. Good service, clean and tidy. Reasonably priced

We celebrated our sons 15th birthday last night, we had the loveliest waitress (i didn't catch her name ) we sat at the back by the salad bar, she was rushed off her feet but went above and beyond to make sure we was ok, got my son a birthday pudding, took photos of my family. Thank you so much :)

Menu very limited, food just ok, staff very friendly and helpful

Very good food, always nice when having a treat.

Chicken was nice and moist and chips were good but the ribs were shocking barely had any meat on them and were very dry think they were overcooked. Won’t be ordering ribs again. Brownie was good. Nice meal overall.

Ordered chicken burgers and was sent beef. Against my religion to consume beef.

Nice to see lana back! Had a great meal then regrest back to the bar. Had great atmosphere in there.

Excellent service and the new menu was great! I had the chicken, bacon and waffles which were delicious. My only regret was filling up too much on pasta from the salad bar and not leaving room for dessert! I did think the new garlic bread was naff though - super cheesy, but it’s on a flatbread which just isn’t right if you ask me!

Great meal, fantastic service by Cassie. Made us all feel very welcome . We will be back

Great experience.. Great service from Sam

Great food and service. Our meal was cooked to perfection and will definitely be returning Keep up the great work

Had a meal here and it was lovely!!! Our waitress Kat did a fantastic job with the service and the food was delicious! We will be coming here again.

Great food on the new menu Happily return

Jay was a top barman sorted everything we needed very friendly and polite would defo recommend

This place has become dated, old, grubby and over all grim. Visited on a Friday afternoon around 2pm for lunch. Place was almost empty yet they made a thing of saying they had one table left (we'd not booked). The table was sticky and the floor under the table was dirty with the previous person's discarded food. Took ages for our order to be taken. Granted there only seemed to be 3 staff on duty but like I've said it was almost empty. Salad bar needed to be refilled. What was there looked like it had been out for hours. Our burgers were awful. I felt like I needed a wash after being in the place. Really would not recommend. Yuck!

Change of menu not impressed, went on 24 th for birthday treat and spent the whole of 25th with agonising food poisoning, intense stomach cramps and vomiting, had not eaten all day until that meal so was definitely from there, will never use harvesters again, the only redeeming aspect was the young lad that served us was polite and welcoming

Food and the staff are brilliant specially our server Izzy

Great new menu and super food and service.

Being gluten free there wasnt one meal on the menu gluten free !! I was told i could have the chips, a steak or chicken breast. I chose steak x chips. Well for £21 a chewy steak with half a tomato x one mushroon x a handful of peas was a joke. I didnt dare have any salad in case it was contaminated. None of the puddings were suitable either so went home hungry x angry 😒😡

We had lunch here on Tuesday 24th September which turned out to be their new menu launch day. We have been in here a few times before and can not fault it. The staff are friendly and the food is good. I gave the atmosphere 4 out of 5 simply because it was a Tuesday lunchtime so there wasn't a super amount of people but it was still nice! The place does look a little tired in places, but don't we all, it doesn't make the food or the staff any less good! We had it explained to us about the menu changes and everything was clear and great. The food cooked by Graeme was spot on and lovely wonderful Sam, is the best waitress you can hope for. No disrespect to the others I'm sure they are lovely too! but Sam always makes you feel welcome, makes you feel like a friend and doesn't mind when you forget to use your voucher and she has to get the bill a second time, because you've messed up! We will be back, just for our pudding course, another day! ;)

We came to the Harvester at polegate for breakfast with family, the food was great and our waitress, Sam, was friendly and helpful

Our sever Julia was so friendly and accommodating. Harry who ran out food was polite. Really enjoyed our meals

Lovely breakfast, generous portion size

Had a lovely meal here, fantastic selection at salad bar. Our server was Izzy, very helpful and service with a smile! Will be back again :)

Had a lovely meal on Thursday evening Lana looked after us brilliantly she remembered all our orders even when placing them down very impressive

Utilised blue light card offer with out sever Cassie could cook it at home for that price lovely meal

service and food very good bút due to my very bad hearing and hearing aids , the background noise was disturbing. This was not your fault.

Popped in for a quick lunch today and they were girly busy, service and food was quick! Thank you so much for a great quick lunch

Food at lunch was perfect. Amazing service from the waitresses as always.

Service was good. Jay was very helpful and cheerful

Excellent service and good. Manager exceptionally charming

The bar staff are brilliant Jay is the best

Food nice and hot. Server was very polite and friendly. Service was good.

I’m so impressed with the fantastic service from Kateryna. She was so friendly and answered all my questions about the menu. I wasn’t sure what to order so she recommended the bbq chicken stack which was delicious! The restaurant was cheerful and welcoming. I’ll be back! Thank you!

Food and service was great on the day of our visit, tables could do with a deep clean and toilet facilities

Birthday meal for 12! The place isn't the cleanest but staff were friendly and food was OK. Salad bar was very good quality though. Other meals were adequate but took a while from arriving to get food. Staff went above with birthday message on our daughters brownie. We were all happy until we'd paid the bill and were saying our goodbyes, getting ready to leave (4 cars going in different directions) and were then rushed out the door because the table had been booked out again.... I know this is common place but we were getting ready to go and it was very much, we've had your money (£270+drinks paid for at bar) so leave.

Service at the bar was great! Friendly and efficient from luke and Harrison Great range of drinks and reasonable prices Keep up the great work!

Had a great meal at the harvester. Thank you so much to Kat our waitress, excellent service with a smile :)

Amazing food as always. Quick service, our waitress Hannah was amazing. Very plessed

Went to breakfast today (01/10/2023) to find the menu had been changed. Unfortunately and disappointingly, the revised menu has changed from items you want, to set menu. The ultimate breakfast has items my wife and I would not usually order. We are regular customer's for breakfast, so for the first time, I can honestly say, my wife and I left very, very, disappointed. In fact, the couple at the next table, overheard our conversation, and agreed, and then left without ordering. Sadly, we will not be returning for breakfast.

The kids love it here! Always good food, and quick to come out. This review however, is about one of the staff - Alisha! She’s been our waitress for the last few visits and, I have to say, she is incredible. Couldn’t look after us better. She’s amazing with the children and always makes an effort to engage with them while we’re there. Attentive, kind, funny and just great at her job - an asset to the team! Thanks Alisha!!! (Ps you’ll be missed when you leave!)

Came in for a drink before a day out and was served by luke at the bar. quick and friendly service and a great atmosphere

A great place for a drink, been coming here 7 years, Luke is the best bartender around and Cassie is a good laugh and I cant forget Tania for always knowing what im gonna order

Been coming here since I turned 18 and it has been a pleasant experience everytime. Staff are friendly and easy to talk to. Especially Cassie. She's hilarious.

It was a brilliant meal the service was quick and attentive. All the staff were happy to help us and nothing was too much to ask. I would 100% recommend this restaurant.

Great food and friendly atmosphere, keep it up

Good food and friendly staff, reasonable prices. Has been refurbished since my last visit and is very nice.

Our table was not ready at our booked time. Very busy on Saturday night. The table was not clean when we finally sat down and had to request it to be wiped over again.

It's been a long time since I've been to a harvester. But I will definitely return after this visit! Thank you 🙏

Every food items I ordered was awesome, the atmosphere and customer service was excellent.

Did not touch the sides....thoroughly enjoyed..wonderful salad....very easy ordering, delivered promptly by a pleasant person. A good idea to have the code to pass on, food going to the right person.

The driver took the worst slowest route and the food was almost cold. The salads were missing too.

The delivery was good, but the restaurant did not provide the 3 free salads that should come with main meals, despite my clicking yes for them.

Ad always a very happy experience. The only thing that was a down fall was a very sticky table. We were moved to another table but your pint still stuck to the table. Food was great. Well done!!

As far as harvesters go this is the best I've ever been too. It's such a great place to go as a family, the kids are welcome and there's always other kids around. They get given a little activity book and crayons with games and colouring which helps keep them occupied while getting settled. The staff are friendly and the service was great. The food was better than other harvesters. Not perfect but good portions and great value for money. Only downside is no Sunday roast. If your looking for somewhere to go as a family for an easy meal out

As I was dining on my own I was put right by the back door and next to a busy family table who had kids constantly getting up and down and knocking into my chair where we were squashed in. Food was OK but pricey for what it was really.

Nice bar and restaurant but under staffed had wait ages to order and wait ages for food to be served otherwise ok

Chips were expensive for what you got.

Staff were polite and had a laugh with us when we ate but all in all I cant say much more

Was pleasantly surprised by the choice of salad and food. A little noisy as very busy with lots of family groups.Staff were patient and friendly. Will use again.

Absolutely dire. The meal came out and I thought I'd been served a child's portion. When I put the first piece of chicken in my mouth the rubbery texture immediately made me realise it hadn't been cooked properly. The waitress agreed without any fuss and offered a replacement. I politely declined and we left.

Our waitress Joanna was great, food was good as usual. Our table was a little dark and out of the way, but a pleasant way to enjoy a birthday lunch.

Brilliant service tonight and lovely food, thank you!

Another lovely meal here with the family, food was good as was the service, our server, I think it was Cassie was great with our daughter and in good spirits, thanks for a good time.

Amazing friendly service from Kateryna. Lovely to have such a smile on a Sunday morning. Very knowledgable of the menu offering recommendations which we found very useful not being frequent diners at the Harvester. Kateryna was extremely but not overly attentive which was perfect as we had an appointment to get to after. Many thanks for a lovely breakfast.

Joanna was amazing and helped to accommodate my gastric problems. Due to this I have had the most enjoyable meal out in the past year. She was exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Had a lovely meal served by Cassie all very hot served quickly very helpful and polite

Thanks Cassie for your lovely service. Lovely and polite. Food was amazing

Came in for dinner and was served by cassie. She's a lovely woman and an amazing waitress. Food was served hot and quickly. Will be coming back soon.

We were greeted politely and taken to our table. Our lovely Host, Sam, was brilliant. Exceptional service. Lovely food and atmosphere. Thank you very much :)

Best harvester I have been to, staff go above and beyond, food was lovely. We will definitely be going back.

Doctors visit My wife had to visit the doctors surgery so we decided to have breakfast here and we are glad we did as it was great. The young lady that served us was delightful and helpful. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it as well.And it was reasonably cheap as well.We will definitely be back there again.

Service with a smile in these days are rare. But the Service was excellent and with a smile and polite 😊

I haven't left since Friday! Every day has been great service especially on Sunday with Sam, it was very busy but she found time to check on our table regularly. Great food and staff.

Sam was amazing, very friendly and attentive. Smiley and friendly. Excellent service!!

Would never ever go back again! Had the mix grill chicken was soooo dry! And everyone else’s chicken was the same. Didn’t clear our starter plates. Didn’t check how the food was and had the kids eat for £1 deal but was only allowed to use 1 even though we wanted to order so the deal was valid but waitress said no! DONT GO HERE FOR FOOD!!!

You accepted the order for a table for breakfast and after driving around the entire city, it turned out that you were open from 11:30 on that day. I've been to your place before, and the food was fine, and I liked everything, but I'm writing this review after a few visits, and this time I was disappointed.

This has been my pregnancy craving so have been visiting fairly regularly. Food is always lovely and the service amazing especially Sam, She goes above and beyond and is just so lovely and friendly. Sam has served us on multiple occasions and honestly can’t say we have had better service anywhere els. The food is always delicious fresh and fast to come out. Highly recommend.

Came in last week absolutely fantastic experience, Cassie was absolutely amazing and attentive to everything we needed. Food was amazing, i really recommend the gammon. I would 100% Recommend

Sam was amazing. Very good service and reasonable price for breakfasts

Cold, inedible. Absolute rubbish. Don't do it.

Total rip off, received a email offer from harvester, got food which they mucked up, we polity asked to move tables but they said no , however the people next to us asked to move they got moved. Cut the story short bull came they refused our code from email got called a scamer and we did not get kids eat for 1 pound. Happy says we won't be back

Good food at an affordable price. Friendly staff. Great salad cart included. What's not to like?

Not a bad spot food could be abit better and service could be better is what it is👍🏻

My partner was very happy with her meal. My Sirloin was not good I am sorry to say. The rest of the food that came with it was fine.

Nice place with great staff but food was mediocre. Better than the Harvester at the harbour though.

I chose a burger and asked for one of the sauces to be removed. When I received the food they had just put a different sauce it that was not required. Ended up not eating it.

our food was cold chips where soggy not great at all won't be doing this again

We were overcharged,the food(chips,breaded mushrooms,chicken goujons)was dripping with fat but the worst aspect was the outside environment..broken furniture,neglected foliage(plastic)..totally depressing and it was overpriced

Well dont bother leaving notes for the restaurant as they obviously dont read them

missing the salad that came with the food

Popped in for quiet time with nice glass if wine.

Food and service was great as usual. There was a group there who had a few very noisy and boisterous young children who were allowed to run around the restaurant screaming at each other. We know the Harvester can sometimes be a bit noisy with children at certain times, but this was exceptional. Other customers also kept looking on with disapproval. We were both surprised and disappointed that the Manager or a member of staff did not approach the family to point out that this was a restaurant not a playground and request that they calm their children down. Unfortunately their noise and chaos spoilt our visit on this occasion as well as spoiling other customers' experience also.

We didn't book when they were busy. They still fitted us in.
