Harvester - Horwich Park Inn in Bolton

It was like a home away from Home. Loved the staff and service

This is the 1st time we have been hear and what an experience it was. Food, amazing, service well that was off the scale. The young man Dom was absolutely amazing. He informed us of how things tasted and he was absolutely amazing, kind and made my young lad feel so at ease when picking his food... even gave him a fist bump. This young lad is by far the best team member you have and he deserves to be acknowledged for his amazing service.

More staff like Dom please, great personality, outstanding service.

We only popped in for a drink before a concert. We were served by Lorna. She’s very friendly and made us laugh. Top service, great staff

Worse Harvester experience ever, decided to go for lunch after a positive hospital appointment to celebrate, we ordered steaks for the main meals with jacket potatoes, just before they arrived we were informed there were no jackets and had to make do with chips which we didn't eat, the steaks were very gristly and sauces were very watery. When we asked for the bill they wavered the cost which was the only positive thing about our experience, on the way home I had to stop the car to let my other half be sick after the meal, will not be going to this Harvester again

Had the wonderful Dom look after us this evening, proper gent, entertaining, super quick and look after us well. Thanks Dom, you legend!

Dom was excellent in serving our large table tonight and the food was lovely. Thank you

Lovely service by Dom - very friendly and the food was nice

The staff were fantastic! Very friendly and helpful, especially with my allergy. The food, a mixed grill, was excellent and I enjoyed every bite! My pint was nice and cool, and the J.D. and cokes quenched my thirst. Outstanding service, will be returning soon!

While its focus may be around family dining, it does not fall short serving other kinds of parties. As a solo diner, I was greeted by friendly and attentive staff, a modern but cosy vibe, and a relaxed atmosphere. The fireplace makes the building feel even more comfortably warm. There is a salad bar which customers can access throughout their visit. I ordered the Ultimate Mixed Grill, the portions were MASSIVE and surprisingly it was great value for money. In fact, I was unable to finish my food and had to take my leftovers back to the hotel, they were very helpful about it and even let me take a knife and fork back with me! Still complimenting the portions as you don't find portions that big very often. Plus, they are very good at celebrating birthdays, and they also have a function room and a bar area that shows sports. Overall a great display of a quality family restaurant for the North West, do be warned however it can get a bit noisy after 7:30pm

Love going for tea here , highly recommend. The food is always fresh and for the price is brilliant value for money. Desserts are to die for

Had a fabulous meal with friends at Horwich harvester today and service was great... had a lovely lady wait on us .In the background I saw an amazing young lad attending to other parties with a lovely smile ..then go on to do his job ..clear tables, wipe down etc but I notice this lad never stopped finding something do ..Great employee seriously i feel went out of his way to please everyone around him with the most genuine smile .. His name I later asked was Dom ..I would just like to say this lad is a credit to you 👏

Excellent as always. Wendy; Sam and Lorna are always truly attentive and the staff are uniform in their consistently good approach. Very clean venue with appetising dishes.

I wasn’t bothered it wasn’t drivers fault the harvester started it late busy as bolton were at home it was delivered excellent driver excellent just busy football traffic . Excellent good n delivery

Food awful and cold waitress rude Will definitely not be returning. Mushroom looked like black slime and smelled strong of vinegar bacon freezing cold sausages also smelt of vinegar thought it was just us but then heard the next table complaining

Just had to leave a positive review after our experience this evening. Despite a very full busy restaurant we had a very friendly greeting, making our shy niece feel at ease. The great service continued with our server Dom. Dom was friendly, fun and full of energy. Dom helped us with our drink choices and included our niece with every step of the ordering process. The food was OK, but what really shone on this visit was the interaction with the staff. Well done!

Dismal barely warm food. Many dishes unavailable, empty salad cart that was never refilled. Only plus was Blake who served us, keep hold of him. Assume it only survives on captive audience from Premier Inn next door (like us) or we were very unlucky.

I went to harvester today with mum and nephew and the food was amazing, 10/10 for the food, the service was absolutely amazing aswell, we had a lad called Dom who went above and beyond for my nephew and just made the whole atmosphere amazing, would definitely go back again, and would 100% recommend Dom as your server xx

Not been since it had a refurbishment. Wow !!! The place looks amazing ❤️we called in for tea on Thursday 6th March using our 50% off mains voucher. We were greeted by James, who was friendly and welcoming, who showed us straight to our table. We were then put in the capable hands of Wendy. She was amazing at looking after us. Nothing was too much trouble. The salad bar was amazing. Fresh , filled up, and very tasty. The mains were spot on and bigger than we thought they'd be 👌🏻We absolutely enjoyed our visit , and looking forward to our next. Please do more 50% vouchers through the year 🙏 ❤️❤️❤️.

We ordered at 17:10 and finally received our food at 19:50. It was cold as you would expect with that delay. Very disappointing.

service and quality of food 10 out of 10

Good food great service from waiting staff .used app got good discount. Plenty of parking

Came to harvester for tea Wednesday night it was really busy tornado was a star as always and got us a table.

Hubby brought me for tea it was brill he comes for a match day and always says lorna is funny and entertaining he was right thanks Lorna and team

Blake and the team really looked after us for the 2 nights we dined with them

Lorna was very attentive, friendly and efficient. A pleasure!

We decided to have a visit to the Harvester as we haven't been for a short while. We visited on Tuesday 11th February. We were seated quickly and orders taken. Salad bar was tidy and clean and in general the atmosphere was good. I chose the Haddock and chips which was great, nice thickness and not too thin. We just want to mention (not a "shout out" as I'm English) a big thank you to Megan who served us, she was friendly and attentive. Served us promptly with a friendly manner, thank you Megan. 👍

Lorna really looked after us !! Great service Thanks Lorna - enjoyed the evening

Nathan was brilliant and really attentive, great food 👍🏻

The food was lovely, with a wonderful atmosphere. Service provided by Nathan was exceptional! Nothing too much!

Hi Nathan is great and makes a great cup of tea

Great food as always today. Nathan was a really nice guy and very helpful..

Don't go just not worth the money

We called in for dinner before a day of shopping being our first visit we walked past the podium only to be greeted with excuse me. We explained it's just the two of us and we were sat in a small dark corner facing the door which we then asked if we could move to which the answer was is it a two seater table. At this point there was no more than 8 dinners in while we were waiting to give our order 2 more couples came in and was seated in the booth's. Then came the service. starts with drink we ordered double jd and double rum took 10 minutes to return and say they only had enough rum for a single fine I took it. We ordered the steaks with chips 1 with pepper corn sauce with dripping gravy 15 minutes later they came and said there was no dripping gravy so normal it is the food arrived on half sized plates and pepper corn sauce was watery steak was lovely chips also good. But being made to feel like we should of been using the trade entrance was the worst. We didn't say anything because it wasn't going to spoil our day out. It's taken me a few day to decide to post sorry.

Dom was amazing,very happy and polite well done.

There’s a reason that when we go for food before catching a movie, we usually pick Harvester. Great food, reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Excellent food and drinks, great service

Overall the burgers are so delicious along with the full rack of ribs. But what caught my eye is how much Mac n cheese you get for the price £3.99 for the smallest portion I’ve ever seen or witnessed :(

Nice meal, good pint of Peroni Very friendly and cheerful waitress

Once again our visit was great the ease of booking on line also the staff and menue excellent we are always welcomed at Horwich. The offers i:e birthday reward and the 50% or 25% off offers are really good which is a great marketing ploy but great for the customer well done Harvester.👍

First time we have been to harvester for lunch but will definitely be going back food and service excellent

Rosie was lovely and very attentive. Brilliant service. Thank you

Friendly staff upon arrival and happy to accommodate any of our needs. Food was tasty and good portions at affordable prices. Efficient service after we ordered and all 10 orders arrived together and piping hot.

Served by Wendy and Blake and they go above and beyond as usual. Service is quick and efficient and they always make our little girl excited to come and visit. Will always come here as long as they are.

Lovely Meal with great service from Wendy - we had the 50% off voucher too so very good value!

Great service, good food, very clean.

Lorna looked after us as soon as we arrived, and she was very pleasant and great service. From drinks to food. Everything was just perfect 👌

Dom was excellent, really good customer service, very attentive. You don't see it very often so it was really refreshing!

Would recommend, usual great food from a warm, helpful and cheery server, thank you Rosie.

Update 2025 - Food is good and nice bread. Very easy and simple place. Even better when you get 50% off

This place definitely deserves a 5* rating. Of all the harvesters or even pub style restaurants we've been to, this place has been by far the best. We popped in on Thursday night for tea and came back again on Saturday morning for breakfast. Both times, the service was outstanding. The food was spot on, loads to choose from, all tasted fresh and of great quality. But the great customer service is something to shout about. The lad that served us went above and beyond. I think he was called 'Blake'? I hope I have his name right. Big thank you to him, the manager, and the kitchen. You guys have nailed the service at this Harvester. Thank you, me and my family will definitely return in future.

Thank you to this amazing pub who took pity on my Australian brothers who were delayed on their trip to the UK and then unable to find somewhere to eat on Christmas Day. You went above and beyond to help my brothers. Thanks so much.

We went for a meal after the Bolton game on Boxing Day the food and the service were absolutely amazing could not fault anything at all

came for a meal Christmas day I was on my own and the staff made me feel very welcome and I really enjoyed my turkey dinner paul and Lorna are great and thanks again for my Christmas Dinner.

Went for Christmas dinner. One star and that is for the beer. Hard veg, Chewy tough steak, Cold turkey, Frozen roast potatos, Oh and a bad tempered sarcastic waitress, not surprised her name wasn't showing o her badge. She had a white baggy top with dark blue splodge pattern, shoulder length hair. My husband and my self work with thw public and no matter what is happening you don't take it out on other people, who have paid good money for this ' meal'.

Collected a Turkey dinner on Christmas day to take back to work. The food was excellent and the staff a pleasure to meet. Very impressed. I shall be visiting again with my family to dine in!

Prefer to be addressed in a different manner Mate and Pal should be replaced

Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was good

I ordered my food at 7pm, it's now 10pm and my order time is still getting pushed back. if I had known it was going to take this long I would have gone somewhere else.

Excellent service! Hit and miss with food, some excellent, whilst other items I couldn't eat

Came in tonight for food and drinks with friends, was served for food by Grace who was amazing! Very friendly & welcoming.. After food went into the bar seating area and was looked after by Beth behind the bar who was also as friendly & welcoming and saw us through to the end of our visit.. 10/10 to both, definitely call again 😊

Service was excellent. As a wheelchair user I need plenty of space to manoeuvre and we were shown to a table near the toilets that suited my needs perfectly. The menus were extensive offering lots of choice including vegetarian/vegan options and the salad bar had possibly the freshest selection of food I've ever encountered. We all enjoyed our meals and the hospitality we received was excellent. Accessible toilet was well kept and clean as were the Gents toilets. If anything needs improving then I couldn't see what. No complaints whatsoever. Will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family.

Great service, friendly staff. Food was perfect. Stake cooked perfectly. 5***** service.

Firstly, the food when it eventually arrived was very nice. Chicken breast (small), chips (small), chicken gravy (pathetically small), 2 miniscule cubes of cornbread - all for nearly £14. Portion control rules here & unless you have a voucher & then still is ridiculously expensive. A sharing mixed grill was £50. Steaks not much change from £30! Jesus, it's a chain. No atmosphere at all in the Horwich, Bolton branch. 1st & very much last visit. Came home & made some toast....twas still hungry.

Very pleasant staff and good food. Unlimited entry is a good idea. I recommend.

Terrible service throughout, told staff I was allergic to garlic would have thought it was war. Food took forever to come and steak was overcooked due to the delay. Lack of training was evident with only one senior lady seeming to know anything. Asked for a tooth pick or cocktail stick afterwards none available. Last time I visit this restaurant.

Very nice tasty succulent chicken and ribs. Fresh very tasty salad. Best pudding 😋😋😋

food cold, about 20 chips on a portion of fish and chips. AVOID

Food for nine and everyone was happy. 👍😃 The staff were friendly and helpful with the food allergy and intolerance dinners. Salad bar. There are lots of different sauces to choose from. Refills, great selection of cold/iced soft drinks. A warm, welcoming atmosphere. Level access. Toilets.

HARVESTER HORWICH PARK BOLTON - ate here 4 nights because Lorna was exceptional not only in booking our table but ensuring we were looked after throughout. The food was great including the unlimited salad which complimented our meals perfectly. Ourselves and The Exeter Pickleball Club would like to thank you Lorna for making the experience flawless with large tables booked for us with ease. Highly recommend on all levels. From Natasha & Martin R Pickleball

The service from Nathan was amazing got our food very quickly even on a busy saturday

The only problem was that there was no Tata sauce with my fish which I enjoy with it. I also asked for salad but didn’t receive any.

Very good food and service from our server Nathan

We enjoyed everything. Thank you.

The food was not very hot the rice looked like someone had been eating it very little left in the container. I didn’t get my salad. The bag that it came in was not sealed.

Had a great meal, with a great atmosphere, creating a great experience 😄
