Harvester White Hart Leighton Buzzard in Central Bedfordshire

Arrive at the harvester did not book a table but they got us in and we had chicken skewers. Car parking is free and location is on site. The toilets are located inside the property gentleman toilets at bar area womens are toward the entrance of property, friendly staff... great location for a stop off from the A5 towards Milton Keynes and Woburn. Family friendly great food.

Had one of the best mixed grills I've ever had

Nikki was our server she was really polite and efficient, service was 10/10.

Great food,you must try the rack of ribs. really helpful friendly staff

Thanks Nikki and Lily for the lovely service

We have had bad experiences at OTHER harvesters, so decided to give this one a try. All I can say is this Harvesters is the best ever, from the staff at the reception giving a really friendly welcome to our waitresses Nikki & Sandra who were very friendly and attentive. We went at 6pm on a Friday so a busy time but this was no issue for them. We will definitely be back

Great service from Lily. Thank you.

Was lovely service by sandra and nikki and was lovely food and atmosphere l.staff was lovely and so intentive with us and was really busy

Lily was our waitress, incredible service, lovely girl.

Sarah was brilliant, couldn’t do enough to help, was efficient and friendly and very patient with our noisy children!

Lily was our waiter amazing service , very attentive! thanks you

Thank you for your great service lily! Very attentive and helpful, made our experience so much better. Food and atmosphere good too

Friendly and polite service. Food was a nice change. Lily went above and beyond and made the best desert I've had in a while.

excellent service, special thank you for Sandra.

Great service and the food was great. Sandra was exceptional. She was super friendly and was so attentive. Harvester, give her a raise!

Great service from Nikki, always love coming to our local Harvester!

Please be aware that you do not have the buffet option for breakfast. Service was better than some high-end restaurants. Breakfast was the worst. Burned sausages, cold baked beans, and cold fried tomato ( just 1 slice). All in one, very poor breakfast, gives Harvester a bad name.

Eat here regularly and always have a lovely meal. We were served by Lily who was very polite and attentive

We've been here a number of times over the past twenty years or so and it's been through some ups and downs. Nowadays, it's certainly "up". It's clean and well kept with friendly staff at the front of house. Food is great quality and portion sizes are very generous. Prices are good with us spending £54 for two people, two courses. That included two pints of Spanish beer. Midweek, lunchtime and it was very quiet, I would imagine weekends are noisier and busy with families. The bar area is inviting and comfortable too if you're just passing for a coffee and a snack.

Thank you lily for always serving us with a smile, and a great pint of Stella every week!

After reading the reviews I must have been somewhere else because the food we had this evening was terrible. The salad bar was bare the rolls were dry and the simply chicken( reconstituted chicken watery and rubbery) was served before we had finished the salad starter. So the chef managed to cook 2 jacket potatoes char grilled chicken and broccoli with peas in about 10minutes...Not good!!

Great service, good food and reasonably priced.

Yet again, what a lovely meal. Sandra and Nikki looked after us so well as they always do. They are so genuinely nice, and their kindness adds to our pleasure of coming to this Harvester

Family friendly, good service, delicious food - love the salad bar and my kids actually eat the salad.

Absolutely shocking experience. Walked in and was faced with 5 dirty uncleared tables, we were seated at a table with food splattered all over the walls and sweetcorn squished into the seats, dirty glasses, bowls and cutlery. Didn’t stay to see what the food was like as they couldn’t give us clean utensils we were worried about the state of the kitchen area

When we arrived, we noticed that there were about six or more tables left uncleared, still piled with dirty plates. We assumed they were busy and didn't think much of it. After being seated, we immediately noticed how dirty the table and nearby walls were. Our waitress, who was very friendly, took our order, but when our drinks arrived, we saw that the cups were sticky and dirty. Soon after, a different waitress brought us cutlery, which also turned out to be dirty. The final straw was when our salad bowls arrived, and they, too, were unclean. I spoke with the waitress, who was apologetic and quickly brought us clean bowls and cutlery. However, by that point, we had already decided to leave. It's unfortunate that this happened because it could have easily been avoided. While this might have been a one-time issue, I truly hope the kitchen, where food is prepared, is held to higher cleanliness standards. Sadly, we won’t be returning to this Harvester branch.

Our Waitress Nikki was lovely, very attentive and looked after us really well. The food was lovely and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Thank you Nikki for making our experience so nice.

Very helpful staff. Lovely and friendly. Very attentive. And with a smiley face.

Chicken tasted like fake chicken. Broccoli cold and hard.

Service by Nikki was outstanding! Extremely friendly and attentive. Food was above average, what you’d expect from a decent harvester.

Very good service, nice staff, good food. Price fair

Charlotte our waitress was absolutely perfect. Very attentive and friendly. Food wasn't so great on this visit but perhaps it was because it was busy.

What a lovely experience and made to feel welcome by Nikki today. Nikki went above and beyond to make sure we was looked after during our visit and nothing was too much for her! Such a friendly lady.

What a lovely restaurant! Nikki was an exceptionally good waitress and nothing was too much trouble. I didn't feel rushed and Nikki checked periodically that my group were OK but not too frequently we felt pressured. Would return again for the lovely food and excellent service.

A very enjoyable visit with my 2 kids for sunday lunch. A warm welcome from Natalie and then served by Jodie who was excellent and very helpful.

They do not accept dogs. At other Harvesters, we could easily bring our dog in and eat a meal. They are losing a lot of customers..

Nice staff and nice tasty breakfast

Regular at this restaurant as it's great for the grandkids as they love the salad bar as well . Meet the staff regularly, Sandra always happy and helpful

Struggled to get a phone booking, (albeit in the hour previous to the time we wanted) as the system just kept saying 8pm is not available but we have a space at 8pm. Gave up and managed to get through to a lovely lady who was clearly rushed off her feet and agreed to get us in around 8.15, which we were really grateful for after a long days travelling and an hour still to go. Arrived to find the car park rammed, clearly need extra spaces, took 3 rounds of going off and on the premises to find a space. Got seated and the one of our starters had an ingredient which we asked to be left out, due to time and busyness hubby said he'd manage around the issue. My steak was pretty much half gristle, again decided with time not on our side to keep quiet. Staff were lovely, but overall impression will keep us from visiting again.

Very poor management. Staff ok, management not. Food not to bad. Bit expensive for what you get.

Had a wonderful evening at the white heart harvester in Hockliffe food was perfect staff helpful and atmosphere great look forward to seeing you all soon

Went for a girlie meal out with friends but a lovely spot for families with the help yourself salad bar. Vouchers are available from groupon too so look out for those, makes it cheaper otherwise youll end up paying somewhere in the regions of £25/30 a head which is ok if its just 1 or 2 but if your taking the family.... The food is pretty much on par with a beefeater so thats the sort of food your getting but its tasty and hot. Portions are fair and healthy and veggie options available plus kids menus are provided.

Amazing meal tonight. Atmosphere was so welcoming and warm.the new menu has a fantastic amount of choice. And the meals and salad bar was fresh and prepared beautifully. Thankyou to our server, Matt, and the team for a lovely evening.

The waitress that served me and my partner, her name is Sandra, her customer service was absolutely brilliant, one of the nicest waitresses I’ve ever come across, she was kind, extremely helpful, polite and made us feel very comfortable where we were. I’d highly like to give her a massive praise and say thank u so much Sandra you went above n beyond to make sure our experience was top notch and u delivered over the mark so thank you so much we will definitely be coming back soon!!!

Very helpful staff going above and beyond to meet all needs

Had a booking for 12 today! Every single person we spoke to was fantastic!! Food was great quality! The best harvester I’ve been to they couldn’t have been more helpful! Fantastic experience! We will definitely be coming back!

I had previously posted a 5 star review a few Years ago, but had to delete to repost a new one. We came in as a loud group of 17 for my daughter's 18th Birthday, and was blessed with having Kirsty as our host. We couldn't have asked for more! Thank you so much for making her Birthday an enjoyable and memorable experience. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Had a great evening of drinks followed by a meal here. The hospitality is exceptionally brilliant. Sarah was so accommodating and looked after us so well. Great big Thank you. Sarah.

Nicki was very good and helpful

Sandra was such a lovely lady and helped us with everything we needed!

Sandra was great! Friendly atmosphere and food tasted great. Thank you!

Nikki our server is always friendly and welcoming

Me and my family had a wonderful meal at this restaurant. Our waitress was excellent with the service was very helpful especially as she was on her own serving multiple people at once her name was Sarah Overall very enjoyable experience. Would come again

Sandra is always very efficient and kind. Great food and service . Kids love it so do we

Lily was amazing as usaul. Always greets with a smile and is very warming and friendly. I have seen Lily numerous times while attending and always had positive interactions with her she very kind and always ask if you need anything or how is your food. By far the best, she is a credit to the team. Keep up the work you're doing great Lily x Kind regards You're favourite customer Chris 🤣

Kids menu are expensive. Two small cartons of drinks are £4.60. I prefer cod rather than haddock for my fish and chips which you dont have on the menu so I did not enjoy my meal. We had two starters, kids menu and 1 main, the bill was over £50. That's too expensive.

Nikki was great throughout, food was lovely and good value.

Food was ok ...had breakfast there ......tables clean ...toilets clean

Nikki our waitress was so lovely and welcoming. food was lovely, we just dropped in for a quick lunch. Thank you

Ordered 4 Bird, surf and turfs with the steak cooked different ways. Every one of them came out perfect. It is so rare to get that in a pub venue

Great salad bar, food option and dinner. Good value and good location. Lovely evening overall - big thanks to Sandra for great service! :)

Always a warm friendly welcome Lily our waitress was friendly helpful and polite Who provided a superb service

Lovely service from Sandra & Nikki

Nikki was looking after me and my husband tonight and she was super lovely. Attentive however not overbearing, very sweet and lovely to talk to. What a star! Really enjoyed our Friday treat dinner! The lady with pretty sparkly nails and full fringe at the front was also very lovely!

Sandra and Nikki were fab when we visited. Our food was great. 4 steaks cooked 3 different ways and they were all perfectly cooked.

Had a lovely meal served by Sarah who had a great sense of humour .

Nikki was an absolute diamond, looked after the needs of my wife and I during the meal. Nothing was too much trouble. Nikki even got the pudding transferred to a take out. Great service and nice staff.

Sarah looked after us tonight, the service was fantastic, the food was really good and the atmosphere was relaxed. Thank you for a lovely evening we’ll be back again soon.

Our waitress was Nikki tonight, and she was so kind and patient. Service 10/10 - thank you Nikki xx

An enchanting spot to savor delicious cuisine, bask in a delightful ambiance, and experience exceptional service. It's important to remember to reserve a table, as this venue becomes quite bustling during prime dining hours.

The staff are always friendly, the salad bar is always tidy, the food always arrives on time & is correct, the kids meals are great - the children love the drinks, food & desert, great selection of adult meals as well, the tables are well spread out and comfortable

We love coming here! Food is brilliant and so is staff (thanks for your amazing attention, Charlotte!)

Had the best experience yesterday thursday 29th aug and will keep coming back,busy period but still found us a table close to salad bar. Food order taken efficiently and the chicken we had perfect and not dry. Staff couldn't do enough twice we were asked if our meal was ok,although busy nothing was to much trouble. The staff make this place a great place to go. Great team.

It was OK but I'm not sure I'd visit again tbh. Flamstead is nicer. Sorry White Hart

Nice food. Friendly staff. Pity there is always a fly buzzing around, surely a fly zapper would sort it. August 2024 still flies buzzing round. Couldn't you just spray some fly spray round at the end of day? Funny, I said the same thing 2017 but still have flies buzzing around!!!!

We had a fantastic waitress called Sandra. She was friendly and chatty. She even put a candle on my daughters pudding! The food was lovely

A big party of 13 we were looked after well, service was very good food great. Well done harvester

Fabulous food and service. Highly recommend!

Very noisy,when we were there, food ok,bit underwhelming , nothing special, service good , interior tad dated 👍

Food was standard fair, service was very good though which makes a big difference to the whole evening. Well done Lucy for looking after us this evening great job..

From arriving very friendly staff, efficient service and asked several times if everything ok. The food was a good price, large portions, to much for us but was very good from flavours to presentation. Would definitely recommend a visit .

Nikki was a really polite and helpful waitress. Service was quick and dealt with everything we required. Couldn't have asked for more

Great service from Sandra tonight. Thanks 😊

We regularly go to the White Hart. Friendly staff and good quality, value for money food

Nikki was a wonderful waitress. Efficient, kind, funny

Our time at the Harvester was absolutely amazing! Both of our servers, Nikki and Sandra, were extremely helpful and our service was great! The wait for our food was quite quick and it tasted really nice. It was a great overall experience and we look forward to coming again.

Thank you to Nikki our fantastic server! So helpful and attentive and nothing was too much for her!

Came in for a dinner with my cousin and grandma and we had a great meal. My grandma absolutely loved her camembert and tomato tart with the tex mex dirty fries. Our server kirsty was amazing and had a good laugh with us, she made our experience today one to remember. Thank you Kirsty!

Nikki was lovely provided a service with a smile on a very busy night. Weldone Nikki you made our experience enjoyable. Emily and family.

We appreciated the new additions to the salad bar. The kicking coleslaw is a bit too spicy though. The staff were friendly. The outside really needs some planting on the perimeter of the car park out the front to make it have nicer kerb appeal

Perfect place with perfect food and good people.

Sarah was our server and she went over and beyond helpful. Food was very tasty and well presented.

Went for an anniversary dinner with my boyfriend. Food was lovely, cooked to perfection and Kirsty our server was so so lovely! 10 out of 10 service on her end. Sending all of my recommendations her way x

It's breathtaking and I am falling in love with this area

Niki was so caring and awesome. Thank you to her for her brilliant customer service skills.

Busy for outside eating, booking ahead is adviceable Food is OK Service is good Price is reasonable as is it everywhere else these days.

The service and value for money here are amazing!! And the offers with coupons make it an absolute bargain! Special thanks to our waitress Sandra who couldn't do enough .. well done and see you all again soon.

Never a bad meal or service at this delightful pub. All the staff are so friendly and would do anything to accommodate your needs. The food is also always yummy and great value. Have been here many times over the years! Sandra is always amazing. She usually seems to be there whenever we go and she has always gone above and beyond. So lucky to have Sandra!!

Staff were really great, food was fab. Kirsty who served us was wonderful with the kids, friendly and made sure we had everything we needed at all times. Wonderful lady. It was a ridiculously busy Sunday yet she went out of her way to be accommodating and always a smile on her face and spring in her step.

Busy..and staff were in a rush to go home! As soon as you put your fork down the plate disappeared.
