Harvester Yeoman West Byfleet in Woking

Visited for a birthday, table of 8 or 9. Slight miscommunication in arrival as our table wasn’t ready. One lady who seemed to be the manager seemed quite abrupt and a bit rude, I get we all have bad days though. Despite a large group, food came out together, hot and well cooked. (The 3 sausage medley was incredible, as is the cornbread). Service was a little on the slow side, I think 1 or 2 more people would make it run really smoothly. Some of the salad bar stuff had run out but admittedly I never said anything. Would happily visit again. Very pleasant meal. Recommendations: sausage medley, rack of ribs, glazed choux buns

Fantastic service and lovely food! Our waitress was Ella- wonderful xx

Food was good going in but gave us a bad belly the next day.

Looked a nice restaurant so nipped in for lunch. Was on my own so sat in the bar. Ordered a burger and pint of Guinness. Drink came quickly then no food came. I checked at 40 minutes and asked how long the wait was? The lad behind bar said he didn't know but would check if it's not out in 10 mins. Another 30 minutes passed and no food still. As was over an hour, I asked for a refund. They did not argue and refunded me fully. No one seemed to know why my food never arrived.

While we did enjoy our visit, it was shocking at how much the prices have shot up. There weren’t any lower price items that appealed anyway. Still, it was a treat so we forged ahead. But although our main dishes was very nice and well cooked, there was actually a little too much on the plate - I actually think a little ‘shrinkflation’ could have kept the prices down. I appreciate the attempts to improve some of the dishes, but come on - it’s Harvester, not something fancy. Husband only had one course, while I had a main and dessert (which even I found too rich and regretted choosing) and the bill was still nearly £60. I know costs have shot up, but it still feels wrong to spend that much on so little. Also, the restaurant was very noisy in a chaotic way. Making dinner conversation quite tricky (one of the reasons we’d gone out!), but then it is a Harvester and known to be a bit rowdy, so we should have expected it. I do think the layout could be improved though, with some well placed screens to soften the noise. Everything else was what we’d expected from Harvester (we’ve been long time customers, although it was a reminder why we stopped going there for dinner as often).

Ella was really patient, warming and welcoming. Thank you for a pleasant experience! Continue to smile it lights up the room ❤️

Our Sunday lunch at Harvester in West Byfleet was a pleasant affair. The food was delicious, as usual, but it was the exceptional service that truly stood out. Alfie, our server, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. His friendly and efficient service made our dining experience even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this place.

I dined here not too long ago and I still can’t get over what a great experience my family and I had. Our waitress was called Ceatie and she was awesome. The service was very quick, the food lovely, there was a nice atmosphere and Ceatie had a very polite and positive approach. We are definitely going to come back in the near future.

Ella was so lovely food brilliant atmosphere great

I wanted to write a review on behalf of my grandad. Unfortunately I'm not in surrey so I don't get to see my grandad very often. But he usually comes in once if not more a week. And gets served by a girl called molly. He always calls me and compliments her service and company and tells me how much she reminds him of me. My grandad is 88 so he gets the children's ribs which is the perfect size for him and apparently it tastes amazing. But I just wanted to say thankyou to all the team for keeping him company and providing good service and food.

Appalling place, I am a butcher of 40+ years, my chicken had red blood in it and I was told by a female " Manageress" that chickens have veins , I was not on my own with this problem, I will never return to this nasty place. The toilets were like they belonged to a third world country, disgusting, it's not the problem , everyone makes mistakes, it's how it is dealt with. Mrs Manageress take note

Fantastic service from everyone especially Izzy and Alfie

Chicken was undercooked , when brought to the attention of the manager , the manager made excuses and argued in front of guests. This is totally unprofessional. The toilets stunk of urine , I had to hold my breath it was that bad. I won’t be using this harvester again.

Food was normal for harvester! Service was atrocious we were stood at the front desk all waiters stood around doing nothing just looking at us as if we were aliens eventually someone came over to us and seated us! Honestly service felt like we were trying to get bloody from a stone from the waiters and they were all arguing between each other very unprofessional then as we were leaving I used the toilet and this is the state they were in! I’m beyond disappointed!

the food is fine but the restaurant is dirty. really dirty. the walls, the glasses, the cutlery, the sticky tables, the seating. It needs a really deep clean. Or even, just any sort of clean

Lovely staff and so attentive and helpful. Lynsey looked after us today. She was as helpful and welcoming as always

Always a good meal to benhad at harvester

Amazing service and food, everyone was kind and welcoming will definitely be coming again!!

Food was delicious, took a little while to cook but the salad bar was more than enough to pass the time. Molly our server was prompt with taking our order and on hand to answer any questions we had, arranged a high chair to be brought over and asked about allergies ensuring our needs were met

friendly staff and wonderful food.

All service is brilliant and the food was all good and the waitress we had was brilliant and gave a good service by ella 100%

Ella is a lovely honest . Always got a smile and makes people very comfortable

Harvester Yeoman in Byfleet was an absolute treat! The food was great, my family loved it, but the real highlight was our amazing waitress. My family can understand some English (speaking it is a bit harder), so while they didn’t catch her cheeky and sassy comments, my partner and I found them hilarious! What really stood out was how well she connected with everyone, even with the language barrier. She could literally read my brother's mind—she knew exactly what he wanted to order before he even finished the first word of his sentence! She also showed such care and attention to my young nephew, who was tired and feeling a bit unwell. Even though he couldn’t understand her, he still knew he was being looked after. It was such a warm and personal experience, and although my family were only visiting UK, and they had a fantastic time, I can’t wait to return to Yeoman, as I visit once in a while anyway.

A lovely family night out last Saturday night. Hadn't ever been to a Harvester in the evening before.... Food quality at Harvesters has been much improved recently, we all really enjoyed our choices. The waiting staff were very good and deserve a mention. Very polite and attentive. Good job!

Good value breakfast and good service from Nikki and Ella as before. Would recommend

Very pleasant good service nice food just 1 criticism the fries was Luke warm the waitress Lynsey was very apologetic and dealt with the matter very promt

Always excellent service and food. Just a shame the lunchtime menu has been removed. Lynsey our server is always cheerful and remembers customers and what they like.

Great Sunday lunch at the Yeoman- Mac and cheese side highly recommended (works really well with the beef dripping sauce) and the puddings are fab- Rocky Road Sundae is still the best! Really warm welcome from the serving staff too.

Amazing food,amazing chefs and waitresses!! Made us all feel very welcome. The salad cart was fantastic as always and our food was exceptional. Will be back very soon

Visited with my daughter on Sunday 6 October. Still love that Harvester salad bar!

came in for a meal this evening had izzy serving us, absolutely smashed it food was delicious!!

Had an incredible time, great service at the front desk and in the restaurant. Good in was great 😊

The food was quite good and the service was also good. Julie was our waitress. She was attentive, friendly and present when needed. She was great and we had a great night

Julie was a very polite and kept up to date with any delays good service

Julie is very kind and very polite, we had a lovely Saturday with her sweet smile x

Service was extremely slow. We waited for our order to be taken at least 10 minutes. Once ordered our drinks were forgotten and about 15 minutes later we had to remind the waitress about our drinks… took another 5 to actually get them. Food took 40! Minutes to arrive and was like warm. Ribs were overcooked, dry and chewy. One portion had little to no sauce on them but at that point we couldn’t be bothered to send them back after having waited for so long already and needing to get home at a reasonable time for our 5 year old daughters bedtime. It took another 10-15 minutes to get the waitress attention after we had finished our food to request the bill and the kids menu to choose a desert. Yet again we waited for a food 10+ minutes until we had to take matters into our own hands… we eventually managed to get hold of the menu to choose a desert and take away box. Reminded her of the bill and waited again for about 15 minutes to get the desert and bill. Absolutely shocking service. Super slow and saw lots of people sending food back for being cold or not prepared correct. We were sat next to the kitchen and could see food just piling up left right and centre that was ready but not picked up and served to the waiting guests.

Went in today for lunch , the place was empty. We waited over 30mins for starters and nearly an hour for mains. Kitchen staff were too busy chatting to each other to care. Very unprofessional. More training in hospitality and customer service wouldn't go a miss.

good food, good prices, good service

The food is good in taste. The environment is pleasant but the with slow reception, requiring pre-booking the restaurant. Lack of explanation and not enough information on the breakfast and lunch manu times...!

Harvester have definitely not lost their touch when it comes to burgers and steaks! Great evening meal with the family, always love coming to the yeoman every now and then, good service all around!

Today myself, partner and nephew visited the Yeoman Havester west byfleet and we was served by a lovely waitress named Ella, she was very friendly and super interactive with our 2 year old nephew. Our food was lovely and we had such big portions. I wish all restaurants had a waitress like Ella! We will definitely be coming again.

After checking online the bar was open till 10pm we were disappointed that it actually closed at 8pm.. As a large family group we could not get a dine in table but Conner went above and beyond to find us a place to go, calling near by pubs and confirmed a table elsewhere. In the mean-time the front desk staff brought out a rocky horror for our disappointed young son with apologies that they could not accommodate us. We will be back and we will make sure we having a booking next time! Great staff and ice-cream too 😊

Lovely restaurant waitress a little stern but efficient service reasonable prices ...WIN WIN YEOMAN HARVESTER

Very warm and welcoming staff felt very genuine great food lovely atmosphere good value for money

Wasn't bad, the salad bar seemed a little lacking, waiting staff were a little slow, but nothing really to complain about,o wall decent experience

Food is reasonably priced, staff polite and friendly. Have eaten there before and will eat there again. Thank you

This is my first time visiting this restaurant. I plan to try the family-style restaurant before leaving the UK and returning to Hong Kong. The food tastes very good. The service attitude and quality of the staff are very good and polite.

Freshly made alot of people taking advantage of the offer of the week

Food is well cooked but it is getting expensive now.

The food was good, the atmosphere was great, the waitress, Isabella, was very nice and friendly, which I appreciated.

Isabella was absolutely lovely this evening alongside the amazing food. Will come again!

Food was amazing and the service was great thanks to Isabella . Would definitely come again

Great food as always. Lovely Nikki was an angel serving. Lovely girl 💜

Served by Isabella, perfect service, good food, a little too loud

Best thing about this place was Isabella made the whole experience worth while, would come again

My server Isabella was so nice and so welcoming and was all around great would 100% come back

Isabella was great, had a very welcoming personality and just so smiley!

Awful customer service, off-putting

This is an amaizing place where you can enjoy a lovely and delicious food with friends and family and with kind waiters!!. I recomend it 100%

Cant really comment as we have tried to get in twice over the past year and despite the place being empty, they were understaffed once so couldn't accommodate us and more recently they had a gas supply problem which meant only a few guests that had booked were allowed a seat. Frustrating and not very well run I feel.

Nice place , has improved a bit since last visit

Nicky was lovely. Food and service superb!

Not my kind of place tbh, but we took my mum for her 94th birthday and it was OK. She's not very adventurous when it comes to food, and the menu here offered enough plain choices to keep her happy. Quality was good, and value for money too, it's not somewhere I'd choose to go to personally but on this occasion it fitted the bill.

My order has been delivered elsewhere and can not get hold of anyone to report this!!

Awful service. Such a shame, as the food was good! We'd booked, and upon 'checking in' the host disappeared for at least 5 minutes before returning to seat us, even though it wasn't busy. Then it took ages to have our orders taken. Food however didn't take ages to arrive, and except for strange garlic bread, the burgers and rotisserie chicken meals were really good. Sadly we had to flag down another server to get us the bill, and after another 20 mins we gave up waiting for someone to come to us for us to pay, so we had to physically get up and ask to pay (not that anyone was at the station!). Would have understood if it were busy, but over half the tables were empty!

I don't know why it's been a while since I last visited a Harvester because we had ample potions at very reasonable prices. The only downside was the steak in my mixed grill, which was too tough to chew, but that was the only iffy thing. Our waitress was charming and attentive.

Our waitress was very nice, made things very accommodating considering my brother has special needs. Food came out rather quick and hot, fresh from the kitchen. Boyfriend’s steak was made just how he wanted (rare), everything came out good timing.

Easy to book online and great service

A lovely meal. Satisfied customer

Overall had good food and enjoyed our evening. BUT having booked for two originally I phoned to change to four as a surprise for my husband. Was told that was fine as we were allocated a 4 table anyway. When we arrived and gave our name the man looked us up on his list and said "table for 2". Had to correct him to 4 and tried to say it was a surprise but he was busy telling me I should have told them and didn't seem to listen when I said I had. Guess I'm most annoyed at whoever I spoke to on the phone for not updating our booking and very annoyed that it ruined the surprise for my husband's birthday.

Food was fantastic and our waitress Nicky was lovely aswell as the manager, Salad bar was well presented and food was hot thank you again.

Defo best harvester we've been too. We went here after a day out which is over an hour from where we live so had no idea what it'd be like. Staff were attentive, salad bar perfectly stocked! Which can I add, is a first time occasion at any harvester we've been to. Our main food was absolutely delicious! Kids portions (bigger appetite) were a fabulous size. Would like to think we will return one day

Resturant very shabby and not clean needs total overhaul. Seats worn through in places. Salad bar not kept full and very messy. Main meal fine. Greeting on arrival not very friendly. Shame as local to us and would use more if up to standard

Dirty salad plates, basic food. You get what you pay for,

Food was excellent and service to our party of seven was outstanding.

My meal was a little on the cool side when it arrived. Same meal and same experience as a few days earlier in Reading.

Good staff and food pleasant atmosphere

We had a lovely dinner meal at the harvester a classic family friendly restaurant. Nicky our server was the most attentive and helpful waitress. She made our experience even more enjoyable. 10/10 service. Thank you Nicky! You are a star ✨

could not fault the restaurant in any way every thing was A1,if not been before you will become a regular visitor.

Great breakfast today at the harvester in west by feet.

Had a lovely meal out with my partner and grandparents this week, our waitress was so attentive and friendly and as always the salad bar was the highlight

Great service from Lynsey who explained all the offers available on the app. Really enjoyed the salad bar.

First time i went to the Yeoman food was good Sunday lunch I then returned on a Saturday night 9.30 pm to take my wife out for her birthday along with my daughter and son My son order was wrong, The rest was very poor, we did say it was not very good payed up and left

On my latest visit to the Harvester, I encountered a mix of the familiar and the unexpected. As always, the staff were the highlight of the visit – courteous, attentive, and eager to assist. Their consistent service is a testament to the restaurant’s commitment to customer care. However, the meal itself was a departure from the usual quality I’ve come to expect. The fish, which had been satisfactory on previous visits, fell short this time around. It appeared to have been redone rather than freshly prepared, leading to a disappointing main course. This was surprising, given the restaurant’s reputation for wholesome food. Despite this setback, the overall atmosphere remained welcoming, and the service was commendable. I hope this experience with the fish was an isolated incident and not indicative of a downward trend in food quality. I look forward to better culinary experiences in future visits.

Ordered a chicken for my one year old son was raw. I have complained to the manager Manager was very rude argued with myself and my partner at the table saying it was not raw. We did not want to complain I wanted to make him aware just in case we ended up in hospital. We asked for the bill for the food and drink we had, the manager came over and said “ I have taken care of the bill but you’re not welcome here again” very rude and no customer care this is a ONE year old baby we have fed. Ridiculous never again!!

The food was lovely on our dinner at the Harvester. The tables and grounding were a bit dirty. However arriving home, I noticed that they charged us £3 extra per dinner compared to what was on the menu! I would recommend to check your bill before you pay. Thank you for your respond. Google doesn't let me to respond to your respond. In this case, your menu is very confusing. As I remember to discuss with my english husband what could the "+3 supplement" mean and we thought it will be the 3 things coming with the ribs (chips, coleslaw, corn). The menu does not say +£3 supplement...i wouldn't be surprise in that case. Could i just suggest to update your menu, so it will be clear to everyone. Many thanks.

Nikki was an excellent server. Great quality food considering how busy it was. Well done guys.

Breakfast was great... A lot of American style stuff too... Service was great... Everything was great 😊

Excellent venue for family dinner.

Friendly and polite staff. Good quality service and excellent food.

I go here frequently, but this review is based on todays experience. The food was probably the best i've ever had here in my many trips, the chicken was perfectly cooked. Our server, Isabella (forgive me if the spelling is incorrect!), was also very friendly, talkative and the conversation did not ever feel forced. I'll be honest, i'm always skeptical of 'tipping' but I made an exception today due to the service received 👍

Food was ok. But the service from Carla was amazing on Saturday evening.

Salad bar is the best part.. steak isn't great but the food is decent.

Food abit ropey to be honest. Waitress was nice though.

Great food at a great price and superb service

Salad bar was lovely and clean and all filled. Staff were friendly and service was very good. Was well looked after. Food was lovely and hot.

Last few visits have been very good. Staff always friendly and smiley. Food has been delicious. Staff check regularly that everything is ok.

Ok but was not comfortable being rushed

Really nice staff, made to feel welcome. Food is good can’t complain!

Harvester often provides great promotions which attract me to visit again. It is our second visit of Harvester within a month. My hubby and I ordered the same dishes as last time: 12oz rib-eye in medium rare. Each main dish comes with a free mixed salad with various choices of fresh ingredients and dressings. The steaks were in good size and quite tender. I enjoyed the wayand the flavour they were grilled. If they could be juicier inside I would love them even more. Thank you Chef Pujan and Bhukta. Waitress Lynsey was very helpful and proactive. She remembered our preference and she kindly checked if we were happy with our food. We were also amazed by the way the tap water was served: chilled tap water in a glass bottle and with glasses with ice and a slice of lemon. The atmosphere of the restaurant was friendly and warm. The space was adequate, ideal for gathering. Valuable food with excellent service. I will definitely visit again.
