Reasturant Harvestwr in York

Paid a visit today 13.10.24. Shame to hear the restaurant is closing this week at under 2 weeks notice to the staff. Must praise the manager who very professionally informed of the closure in terms of some items.may be short of on the menu. I.e. chips subbed for sweet potato fries. Lovely meal, chicken to die for. And enjoyable salad. Pleased we actually went today to be able to support in the final week. Not a frequent visitor due to being out of the area, but have made the trip several times to here as it is/was our most local one. Hope all the staff manage to be relocated. Top recommendation to the manager.

We ordered a takeaway from here. Never again. The chicken was so dry it could have been used as kindling for a fire, clearly been cooked hours and hours ago, the garlic bread was better used for boxing up the tripe as it was like cardboard. The bbq sauce was non exaistant as in we didn't get any at all. The nachos and fries were cold, I could understand that if we lived miles away, but it's under a mile. For the price of the combo for 2, I would not pay you in washers for that ever again. My family are now cooking a meal after that, and the gravy is like muddy water as it has zero taste. Very dissapointed with it. Was the first time having a takeaway from here, and it will be the last

Went into Harvester at Clifton Moor after shopping in the area. Took a while to take our drinks and food order but girl who served us was pleasant and chatty. Whilst we were waiting for our food, we noticed a man (possibly the manager) cleaning a table near us, this wasn’t done very thoroughly and left napkins, food waste on the floor etc. we thought maybe he would come back and finish off but seated another family at the table! Once our food came (took a bit longer than expected) it was piping hot and decent portion sizes. Nobody came and asked if everything was ok or if we wanted any more drinks etc. we just felt like another number. The girl who had originally taken our order had left before our food was served and we were sat with our empty plates for 10 minutes plus as if we had been forgotten. I went to the bar to get the bill and was met by a lovely young lady called Lucy who was a breath of fresh air.

Called in on the way to York races. We use Harvester back where we live so know how it works. Food and service couldn’t be faulted really. It was fairly busy but staff handled it really well. Will definitely return when back in York.

Came in for lunch today, fairly busy, but staff ( especially Lena) was very attentive. Had the halloumi flatbread, chicken flatbread and scampi. Was warm and delicious, will be coming back

Very disappointing experience, booked for 6.30 and arrived and were seated promptly. Meal orders where taken, glasses and bowls where presented by our waitress. That was the last time we saw her, over an hr later I found and asked the manager when our meal...

Just popped in for a quick meal before the cinema with my mother and just had the most unbelievable meal cooked by Levi. I chose the pork belly with the chive mash and ratatouille. This meal took me on a journey from start to finish....

On first arrival the place was super busy BUT we managed to snag a table (not from the area just visiting) ! Really delicious meal, great value too! Lovely girl Ella serving us and compliments to the chef Georgena :-)

Nice food, few boxes empty on salad bar but all in all a nice visit, thank you to the chef Levi presentation really nice food tastey and to our server Iana, thank you, effecient, friendly and polite xx

Great service and nice environment. Portions generous. Eggs Benedict could have been warmer. Loads of toast!

Lovely meal out with family. Food was delicious and arrived very quickly. Our server Kenize was very attentive and made sure our meal was enjoyed by all. We will be back.

Thanks George, Kenzie and Peter for making our lunch so enjoyable! The food was delicious and the service was spot on.

The restaurant was quiet and we were seated quickly. We ordered one starter, 2 mains and a couple of sides. The waiter hardly spoke to us, was pretty miserable and also got the order wrong although we let that slide. We were given a cutlery...

Having not been to a Harvester for some time I was disappointed to find the prices have gone up while you also now get less. The days of unlimited juice are gone it seems. The food was perfectly adequate. Nothing special, but nothing bad either....

we called at the clifton moore harvester recently we have eaten here before but we were not impressed so we thought we would give it another try ,my wife is gluten free and it can be a nightmare getting decent gluten free food ,we were...

It’s usually a toss up between The Harvester and Hungry Horse and it was Harvesters turn this time around. Not overly crowded and we were shown to our table promptly. The server came to take our order within a reasonable time and the food also...

Went here for lunch today food was lovely service was very good and very reasonable priced would definitely go back

Awful, starters took forever 5 or 6 staff just standing around the bar area instead of picking up a brush floor was disgusting, starters cleared sat for ages waiting for our mains people walking in ordering there food and there food ariving whilst we were...

Outstanding meal had at this harvester . The staff found us a table straight away despite being very full which was great . We used a groupon voucher and ate salad bar which was well stocked and fresh , half rotisserie chicken and rocky horror...

Food was good but service was poor. We waited to be seated, it was like we were invisible to the chap at the bar, who was chatting to another member of staff. I had to ask the waitress to take our dessert order and ask...

I've been a customer of Harvester for years, but it has been going downhill the past few times I have been, which was exasperated the last time I went with my partner. The glasses we were given were filthy (one had lipstick on) and were...

Went here for a decent meal on a Monday evening. We was seated quickly and alexandra was out waitress. She was friendly and very informative about the food on the menu. Food was very nice and extremely filling. Would recommend for anyone looking for a...

When we arrived there was a long wait to get seated. There were only 2-3 staff members and it was extremely busy. The food was cold and fruit juice was warm. We waited 40 minutes for our food to arrive and they didn’t even make...

Absolutely atrocious service , got our food within 45 minutes then had to wait over a hour for some service for someone to come over and ask for desert menu and over a hour for them to clear the table , even the starters/salad bowl...

Great service and staff but the food was absolutely terrible. We had the simply chicken and the chicken tikka flat bread. The chicken on both meals was processed chicken. The jacket potato that came with the simply chicken meal was tiny beyond belief! It was...

Had a lovely time here tonight, the food was amazing and our waitress Jade was so sweet !! Service was really fast and excellent :)

Going downhill rapidly-now closed until lunchtime from Monday & Tuesday! A noticeable deterioration in standards recently with rapid turnover of staff.

This is one of my go to restaurants, however after my last visit it will no longer be! The food quality was as good as usual but the service was horrendous. 1 member of staff rushing about doing everything and the rest not doing anything....

Grim breakfast, 40 minutes wait, poor waitress rushed off her feet and a manager sat at the back on the phone watching the chaos. The scrambled egg was so disgusting I wouldn’t feed it to my dog. My first harvester breakfast and absolutely my last....

We stopped visiting Harvester restaurants probably over 10 years ago now as we felt that the quality for the price just wasn't there. Today, we found ourselves in the position of wanting lunch out, and our child chose Harvester due to tiktok. We were seated...

Super service and hats off to our chef Sheldon!! Every dish cooked to perfection - Masterchef of York! thank you so much!

Recently visited here with a friend for lunch, ordered off the lunch menu which had great choice and was really well priced, everything was clean and we were checked in on regularly, the food was great, got served by a man named Angus who was...

brilliant place. very clean, food came out promptly and was piping hot. staff are lovely. Our waiter Kai, was lovely and put up with our family friendly banter! He was very lovely and kept checking to make sure things were okay. thank you for a...

Went here for lunch as we had a birthday voucher. The restaurant was quiet and we had no trouble booking. A bit surprised that the place has so many negative reviews, our waitress Soffia was extremely pleasant and dealt with all our requests promptly and...

Visited here today was shown to our table and order taken, firstly the wrong meal was served mistakes happen the waitress who was very nice and apologetic brought the remaining meals including the replacement meal that was wrong, I can honestly say that the food...

We all know when you go to Harvester we're not expecting top quality amazing food, but it is usually cheerful pub-style food that's satisfying. I've recently eaten out at Harvester as a family of four and have had some of the worst, rudest service I've...

Visiting harvester today was the worst experience I have had recently. Getting a table took a while which should have been the first alarm bell. After making our choices of food and drink we waited patiently to be attended to. Having felt invisible, four other...

Lunch treat for the teenage grandkids. Staff were pleasant and helpful, though there were issues. Orders taken well, empty glasses delivered to table for refill drinks were dirty and sent back, (one bowl for salad also had a bit of dried up foo on it)....

overall we had a real great time here at harvester we came for dinner around 6.30pm! they have a range of different foods e.g burgers, fish dishes, balanced bowls, fries, chicken dishes, steak, skewers and meat-free meals, I ordered the battered halloumi and fries from...

Our 12yro chose the Harvester as his family meal for the second year running. We were served and looked after by a lovely guy (annoyed I didn't get his name) mid brown hair..checked shirt. (We were the 6pm booking of 4 with the lively blonde...

Visited here with the family for a late dinner. The food was really nice, well presented and perfectly cooked. Brilliant service from friendly, helpful staff. We will definitely visit again.

Went into this restaurant for a breakfast with some work colleagues we all ordered an unlimited breakfast as well as unlimited refills unfortunately it took over 25 minutes to arrive and the food was just about warm and also items missing and when it came...

Visited here tonight with my family. Food was ok and service was great. What really let it down was one of the older chefs feeding himself chips which looked like were off peoples plates whilst dishing them up. To say this wasn't bad enough he...

Went here with my wife and son for a meal about 1830 and was told quite abruptly by a member of the staff supposedly the manager that she did not have enough staff to serve us so we couldn’t go in! Quite disappointing as we...

We visited last night after a trip to soft play. We chose this restaurant as we have had lovely meals here previously and the quality is better than nearby restaurants. We were promptly seated and orders were taken. The salad bar was well stocked and...

Just had our Xmas lunch here and the food was really nice. I had the 2 courses off the festive menu, which were delicious. You also get the free salad bar if you want to. Special thanks to Amy who handled our party of 11...

we are made most welcome to this restaurant and go there every Wednesday...the staff are most helpful especially Italia

Eleanor is the best She is amazing and I liked her hair and she should get a promotion because she’s better than the lady that looked like the boss with her keys

The restaurant was massively understaffed and very busy when we visited. The manager and young staff were absolutely fantastic in delivering the menus and food when they were under extra pressure. The food was faultless too!

Food was great, came relatively quick and was above standard. The restaurant wasn't too busy but had a fair amount of people in considering only 1 person was working. She handled it very well, with help from some if the Kitchen team. We'll done Sophia,...

Excellent service Sophia was very good despite being extremely busy thank you for a amazing experience and food it was absolutely great.

Absolutely excellent service Sophia explained that they were short staffed and sorry for the wait but the I couldn't fault the service whatsoever the staff went above and beyond throughout the meal even the chefs were waiting on tables and clearing plates to say they...

Lovely service with Vee, Fay and Amy today. Lovely food, we really enjoyed the salad bar, limitless drinks and scampi and chips. Thanks!

Excellent service from start to finish from Aimee. She never stopped and was everywhere, excellent at her job and the place is lucky to have her! Great food, decor and atmosphere, thanks Aimee for looking after us.

We called in with out a booking and was given a seat straight away. I don't normally leave a review however the service i received from your waiter Finlay was something i feel needed a review. What a lovely young man, he was so polite,...

Friendly staff and much cleaner after our last visit, As there were scraps on the floor at the table next to ours Food enjoyable and all reasonably priced

We were given menu and ordered but was then told can't have the 3 courses as don't do it on a Saturday. ( why give us the menu in the first place then) . Food came but no drinks. Had to ask for them. Waited...

Very disappointed. Was my first and will be my only visit. Myself and partner ordered breakfast and it arrived cold. We was only 10 feet if that away from the open kitchen.

The slow cook spare ribs is nice and delicious. It is fairly cooked, not burned, with good taste. It comes with popcorn and jacket potato. Good service and price.

Our second visit to this eatery... Served by a young man who's name I forget (sorry). Nothing was too much trouble and he was a credit to his employers. Good food and excellent service. Thank you. Time of visit 1230 Tuesday 12th July.

Everyone enjoyed the food they ordered on Sunday and today my husband and I returned after a cinema outing. Again food was great and the waiter/servers excellent. Well done to the chef in the kitchen working in this heatwave

Awful experience. The four of us were directed to a dirty table after requesting a move out of the direct sunlight the servers had initially placed us. I can only talk about my own experience as the others have their feelings, but this was an...

We booked early tea time. The staff were friendly and attentive . Unfortunately there was a shortage of dishes available on the menu, no Salmon or Cod ! In the end I went for the Veggie burger. Never again ! It was awful and inedible....

We have visited twice recently and the salad bar is very poorly stocked. First time no lettuce , coleslaw etc. This week no lettuce again . Also I cannot understand why you have to have a waitress to serve you at the salad bar ,...

Not sure what is going on with Harvester, staff and food shortages this evening. Turning people away who hadn’t booked, then 30 minutes later allowed people in. No steak, no baked beans and a few other items not available. Waitress really did her best and...

Absolutely fantastic service, this place was busy today, the breakfast was really good, Gorgie looked after us and under pressure was absolutely brilliant,cant rate her enough, the food was 100% ,will definitely return, great morning birthday for me 🙏❤

absolutely top notch meal, the salad bar was the thing of dreams I have not stopped thinking about the penne since. Lovely staff especially Beth and rose who really made the experience, so helpful and kind. delightful atmosphere, will absolutely be coming again to the...

Burnt food. No check back. No apology very very poor. Staff stood chatting while people were waiting

Went there beginnig of December Faye the person who spoke to us asked if we had booked we did not know we had to book because we do not live there.There was only a few people in plenty of tables empty but would not us...

Nothing particular special about food offering but was lush but the waiter Eddie was attentive and friendly. Thank you

Had a meal with my kids here i had surf and turf and my kids missilaneous food got served by my partner amy the hot waitress she was embarrassed bless her great service

A medium rare steak came so over done it was ridiculous, it was 2 pieces of steak to make up the weight advertised one piece cremated the other very well done & you could see the thick grizzle . It was as rough as a...

Had a birthday meal last night 8th March, the cheese garlic bread was very poor and I wouldn't recommend it. I had a rump steak for main course, that was a disgrace, don't know where they buy their meat from, but it was fatty, chewy,...

We went for a breakfast treat with my daughter and the rest of the family. Firstly, there was no milk in the restaurant apart from soya. Not ideal when my daughter wanted a glass of milk and the adults wanted either tea or a latte....

The restaurant was clean and the food was nice but it was very understaffed. The waitresses were trying their best but no-one was taking charge so they didn't always seem to know who was doing what. Food was getting left on the kitchen hatch for...

Visited today to meet up with friends. Served by a lovely young lady for whom nothing was too much trouble. A big thank you for putting up with us..... Couldn't have been easy!!!!

Booked a table for 4 (1.2.2022) for my youngests birthday. Seated promptly and served promptly. All food and drinks were good and the lady who served us (didn't get her name unfortunately) was patient and polite and attentive. Many thanks.

Very small portions. Vegetarian pasta had just five pasta shells. This was a main meal and not cheap!! Left the restaurant very hungry

Christmas Eve afternoon family meal to start festivities. High expectations turned to disappointment. Underbooked + more than half empty restaurant - because of staff shortages perhaps? Sign welcomed us to Santa Breakfast though this was 2pm and there was no welcome festive or not. Stuck...

I have done the online survey and thought I should update here also. Our visit started in a quiet restaurant been placed right next to the kitchen hatch so fairly noisy and been told there was no southern fried chicken so wiping out everyone’s choices...

Waited ages to get a drink. The carling later was disgusting. We ordered 3 starters & only got 2. I asked for a baked potato with my main only to be told that they didn't look very good so could I choose something else. Waitress...

Called here for lunch with my wife. Food was average and usual for a harvester and we were served by a lovely waitress called Beth who couldn’t do enough for you. What was really awful was there were three members of staff either on a...

A great breakfast with hot toast! First time anywhere that I have had hot toast. Normally arrives cold after being bulk cooked and left for ages. The rest of the food was just as nice, of good quality and nicely cooked. The staff were attentive...

Really lovely food and drinks and the waitress was very friendly too. The restaurant is also very clean

My Wife and I went for a meal before going to the cinema. Our table was in what looked like a walkway so I felt I was in the way all the time I was there. They had run out of two things on the...

Whilst everywhere is struggling on food deliveries and shortage of staff during these horrific times I would like to pay compliment to the food served up at the Clifton Moor Harvester, York (Tuesday 7th September 2021- pre booked) and our server (Tal) who along with...

Friendly staff and quick service and lovely food despite the low on staff. They did awesomely. Aimee did them proud! ☺️ lovely evening thank you!!

Terrible experience, massively overpriced for what it is, average reheated food. Service non existent, ordered drinks when we sat down waited half an hour for food and had to remind them about the drinks ! service with an attitude, even the manager has attitude, if...

We popped in to the Harvestet because we needed somewhere suitable for the whole family. The only reason that I am not giving 5/5 is beacuse there was only one person serving. A big thank you to the lady (I think I was Becci?). A...

As regular visitors to the Harvester in Clifton Moor we thoroughly enjoy coming here every time, brilliant food and brilliant service with nice fun and relaxing atmosphere! Huge shout out and thank you to Laura and Maisie who are brilliant, nothing is ever too much...

Popped here on the off chance, managed to get a table for 2, served by a lovely girl called Maisie who looked after us whilst we were there. I had the sirloin steak followed by a mini trio of desserts, my partner had the pork...

Everything cold even the gravy..ribs had no meat on them at all....chicken was dry ... couple of limp leaves of salad on side...overcooked cold sweetcorn...(didn't attempt to even try eating that) ... swoped chips for sweet pot chips ... Sent first lot back because they...

Friends and I visited the Harvester , before going to the cinema We haven't been for over a year, but Lynn and her team were as welcoming and friendly as ever Service was good and the food delicious Social distance guidelines were adhered to ,with...

We pre booked the Harvester as advised on the Harvester app. When we arrived the manager greeted us and asked if we had visited since they had reopened. When we said we hadn't he explained that we would need to follow the one way system,...

Had lunch at Clifton moor Harvester today. Late minute booking time change was dealt with very professionally with no issues by Lorraine Can recommend the triple chicken combo as well as the simply chicken. Never ending refills of tea and coffee a real treat. Great...

Wonderful experience for breakfast on Saturday 10th October. Brilliant service, food was great with loads of options and great value for money! Our server (tall lady with long blonde ish hair-sorry didn’t get your name) was fantastic!! My little girl was asking for fish fingers...

Went for dinner here Saturday 10th October and thoroughly enjoyed the whole meal. Our waitress, Rebecca was amazing. Offering refills, doing check backs, making sure we had everything we need. Food arrived promptly and was lovely & hot. Salad bar was lovely - you go...

Visiting the area so decided to eat somewhere familiar. Restaurant was well laid out, great atmosphere and Covid-19 processes to make you feel safe. Rebecca was our waitress and she was extremely lovely and attentive. Food was cooked perfectly and all the staff seemed happy...

Staff were fairly inattentive considering it was quiet. Drinks order was incorrect, hot chocolate was lukewarm. Food was poor quality and much of it appeared to be deep fried. Glad there was a 50% voucher available as we'd have been unhappy paying full price. On...
