Had to go to the bar after half an hour of being at the table to ask where drinks were - which were sitting on the bar. Had to ask where our food was 50 minutes after ordering which came out immediately so were likely also sitting waiting in the kitchen. Barry Sundae at £7.49 had one strawberry and 8 blueberries definitely not worth the money. Battered halloumi and children's build your own sundae were delicious but my friend had to fight to cut her meal up

We come here on a fairly regular basis and one of the main reasons is because we regularly get tended by Vivi who instantly makes us feel at home. She is friendly, accommodating and patient and is true asset to the company. We always feel that she goes the extra mile for us, on our last visit I left my glasses on the table and she contacted us and came out to return them to me. We enjoy the food and atmosphere of the Harvester in Port Solent but it’s Vivi that convinces us to keep returning.

The food in the salad bar upstairs was dried out and didn't look fresh. Our service was slow even though the place was not busy, and our waiter didn't really check on the table at all. I will say that the food for the three course Easter special was not badly priced and was relatively ok but not great . Overall, it was a disappointing visit.

The service at this place was extremely disappointing. We placed our order through the app and waited 20 minutes without receiving our drinks. I ended up going to the bar myself to collect them. Shortly after, I had to return again to pick up our salad bowl, as that still hadn’t been brought to the table either. As for the food, I ordered the ribs, and we also had a salmon dish and a kid’s steak meal. About 20 minutes after I’d collected the drinks, the food finally arrived—but only two plates: the ribs and the salmon. The salmon was freshly cooked and tasted okay, but the ribs and chips were completely cold, despite the plate being scorching hot. To make matters worse, the kid’s meal still hadn’t arrived. When we went to ask about it, we were told it hadn’t even been cooked yet and we’d need to wait another 10 minutes. There was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay—just poor communication and attitude all around. Definitely not an ideal experience.

Long wait for food even though the place was nearly empty. Staff was just sitting around doing nothing. Had to go and get out own drinks and cutlery, then our food arrived cold and was missing a kids meal then we were told that the kids meal was ordered on a separate order and it's why it didn't come with our meals which was not true as we have only placed one order with everyone's meal in it. Rude lady at the front of the restaurant. Will not go back

Then got seated upstairs, waiter came took order, we waited over 40 mins for a small kids meal, 😒 so ordered pudding when main came, as there was such a wait, on which we were not advised about! Salad bar, looked like it had not been replenished, brown lettuce and mouldy brown rolls, we went downstairs for fresher rolls. Every1 was waiting ages for food upstairs, whilst waiters just stood behind bar chatting. The tables that had left, where not cleaned or wiped down, within the hour we were there! I ordered pudding at 4.20pm and never received it until 5.05pm when I had to go to bar and pay and ask twice for it!!! Extremely shocked by lack of guest service and not a great reputation for company.

I try to not type cast big chains and judge individually. But Hareveters seem consistently mid tier. I ordered the three small plates and while it wasn't bad, it could have been better. The nachos are drowned in sauce and a jelly like chilli sauce which was off putting in look and taste. The halloumi fries were very oily in taste but the Breaded mushrooms were the saving plate. My housemate had eggs benidict which looked like it had been thrown on the plate and the poached eggs were pretty hard. Considering how many staff were stood about, they weren't exactly attentive. Value for money wise, it is pretty good. But the overall experience is very mid.

We went to the Harvester for a drink. The young bar person serving ignored me not once but twice. I presume this other member of staff was a manager, knew that I had been ignored, and did apologise, but that is not the point! At no time did the young bar person acknowledge me say sorry or even give me eye contact. We had our drinks and left, there were glasses and dirty plates outside on the tables. These were there when we arrived. Poor.

We booked a table for five adults and a baby in a pram on Bank Holiday Sunday. As we also had a dog with us, we assumed we would be seated downstairs, where it’s dog-friendly and more accessible for a pram. On arrival, it took some time for staff to acknowledge us. When someone finally did, we were told — quite abruptly — that our table was upstairs, despite dogs not being allowed there. We asked if it could be moved downstairs, but the staff member refused without considering any alternatives. Given the narrow staircase, it would have been extremely difficult (and unsafe) to carry a pram upstairs. It seemed an odd choice to seat a group with a baby and pram there in the first place. The staff member made it clear he wasn’t interested in helping or accommodating us, which was disappointing — especially as we were a large group prepared to spend well. We chose to leave and instead went to Spice Island across the way, where we were welcomed immediately despite how busy it was. The experience — and the menu — were far better.

I went here to meet my daughter and decided to get a meal. ~I was impressed. I had an all day breakfast. There was too much for me to finish and it had 2 of the nicest sausages I have had in a long time, along with 2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, beans, chips half a tomato and toast. The cost for 2 meals was what I would have expected for a single. There was a garden area where a dog could be taken and, if you use the garden entrance, is disabled friendly. I look forward to further meetings with my daughter there.
