The Buccaneer in Fareham

Anne was great. Really attentive and great customer service. Many thanks!

Michelle was very friendly and lovely to talk to. Food was lovely too.

Very little available on menu. Service poor and slow. No atmosphere lighting poor over tables very dark .toilets very poor standard.

Harvester is Harvester, nice place for a family meal

Great Staff Good Food Very clean and Tidy

Anne was a real game changer to our experience. She deserves a pay rise! Thank you Anne

Anne was a lovely part of my trip to the harvester. Really went above and beyond

Are server (anne) was a delight

Good meal will look forward to see you all after you refit

Delicious breakfast and great service at Harvester! Everything was fresh and tasty. Special thanks to Anne – super friendly and attentive. We’ll definitely be back!

Ann is always absolutely fabulous

Lovely place ,as always service and food are just great thank you ! One of my favourite Harvester to visit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2 out of 3 mains were diabolical. 1 mixed grill with no quarter chicken (substituted for rubbery chicken). Onion brings you could break a tooth on. Eggs had a bizarre after taste (although were cooked well). Rare steak came medium. Ordered rotisserie half chicken but that wasn't available so substituted for Gammon & 2 eggs instead. However, eggs had that blizzard after taste and more burnt onion rings. We were offered free deserts as a compensation. That's great! So I ordered the Banoffee Delight. Later told they had no bananas!! All this because they are cutting back on ordering stock for a refurbishment due in 3 weeks time! I will add, our server, Grace, was amazing. Flawless in every way. I vote her to run the place as she seems to know what she's doing and how to keep customers happy.

Food delicious as usual, would like given a shout out to Michelle, who was welcoming, friendly, and attentive, even during the busy time we were eating. Thank you for the fantastic service Michelle!

Anne, was amazing.went for breakfast with friends. Nothing was too much trouble and the breakfast was great.

Food was great and good value for money. Staff very helpful and friendly. I was served by Char who was very professional, friendly and polite.

Regularly visit this harvester, can’t fault it!! Amazing service from Ann :)

Food was great!! Anne was excellent, very happy to help us all

Our Server Anne was friendly and knowledgeable, food was really good . There having a huge renovation so it wasn't too busy but a couple things including the soft whipped ice cream weren't available not sure if this is because of there renovations or because it was lunchtime or a combination of both . But still had a good meal . Our bill was over £45 but we had 40% discount code so was an even better deal .

Anne is always amazing when we come here even though we were a big group

Nice calm place with music well in the background and not interrupting our conversation, our waitress Michelle was brilliant, be going there again really enjoyed the food .

Good was hot and tasty, staff were very friendly and quick service, would go again

Reaally nice Harvester, good food as expected. Standard menu and again like all Harvesters the fryers are shared so no chips :( However plenty of swap out options so its not a big deal. What was nice was our server, Violet, made sure all my food was Gluten free and provided an awesome service from start to finish. There seems to be some building work happening and part of the car park was closed off while we was there but that wasn't a big deal as there was still lots of parking

Good food, good prices, good staff

Peaceful and calm. Kind and respectful service from the wonderful Anne, we come in often and she never lets us down with her dedication to amazing service.

Very helpful and pleasant service and did not have to wait to long for food. And breakfast was very nice.

Great service as always provided in particular from waitress Anne All staff are very welcoming , reccomendations from the menu and was very enjoyable Great all round service

3 of us ordered the rotisserie chicken with hot honey sauce. The chicken was pink inside, undercooked. The assistant manager assured us it was fully cooked rather than giving us good customer service and offering us something else. As we all had salad from the salad bar we asked if we could have a steak to go with it. He said it will be a small 4oz steak, no option there. Still no better the steak wasn't cooked properly, it was stringy. Assistant manager then agreed then blamed the chefs. Overall not a good evening. 😕 I won't be going back. The only kind gesture and only because we said we are not paying the bill he did not charge us. So we left hungry!

Great service from Michelle she is a credit to your establishment. Everything was fine except my ribeye steak was very sinuey and cheery despite being cooked exactly as I wanted it so no disrespect to the chefs just a bad cut. Everything else great and the children were really well cared for and looked after, which is the main thing so we will be back!

A lovely Thursday meal. Maddy (our host) did an amazing job. Made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much for her. Absolute star!

Lovely food and great salad bar

Awful service. Chips were overcooked and cold. No coleslaw for the taco's yet it was in the salad bar!!! Half of the salad bar dishes were empty and the cucumber had been there so long it had all dried up. Won't be going back

Very nice atmosphere Food very good Service excellent Served byAnn The whole luch experience was 1st class Well done Keep it up We will be back

Went yesterday 21st of April waited an hour for our food but my friend and her son had a small starter each they both ordered of the 24.99 3 course set menu but didn’t realise the stake came at 5 pounds extra they was asked if they wanted peppercorn sauce which was an additional 1.99 each which she wasn’t aware of when there steaks arrived they were both over cooked they both asked for medium rare they were well done really chewy and dry I tasted a peice and spat it back out we asked if they could have some money of was offered to take the drinks of but they both didn’t eat there steaks my friend ended up cutting the steak and giving it to her dog nearly 60 quid down the drain also some of the food that was prepared ( other peoples were sat under a heat lamp for nearly an hour they were under staffed we had one waitress that was serving most of the tables and checking in the guest for the tables and serving the food ,also wasn’t given new knifes and forks had to grab our own and our dirty bowels we’re left of the table so I moved them to another table , there was also food under our table before we even ordered ours it’s gone down hill and won’t be going again for a long time it’s a shame because it’s become over priced and under staffed and it’s local to me

I'm Coeliac and they do Gluten free Classic Breakfast, lovely food, and great service. Anne is so friendly and welcoming . Definitely be back.

Amazing cooking and not to mention the service 👌 it was perfect everyone is so happy and kind. I will be back.

Celebrating my birthday with a few friends. Had a great time & our server was fantastic

Breakfast cooked to perfection 10 out of 10 Will be going back monthly Only because I don't want to get fat.... Compliments to the chef.

Grace was an absolutely delight, really polite and friendly, very attentive and professional. She's an asset to your chain for sure!

Service from Grace was great. Fantastic might out made better with the service.

Grace was great, quick service and was very helpful and always served with a smile great evening and would 100% come back

Grace was super friendly and couldn’t do enough for us on our visit! Will definitely be back!

We had a family gathering and were served by Ann. She was super nice and friendly. We had a great meal!

Lovely breakfast, polite staff. As our local harvester, within walking distance we do have breakfast regularly here. Always of good standard.

Excellent food and service at the Buccaneer! Would definitely visit again!

Christina fantastic service as always

Maddy was our waitress and she was friendly and polite, quick service and great food. Compliments to the chef Luke , will definitely be back.

Our first visit to Bucaneer Fareham - lovely greeting from the lady at the front desk and friendly, helpful and efficient service from Jess which made the evening even more enjoyable.

Went out for my mum’s 75th with her and the siblings. It was a great meal, great atmosphere, our waitress was amazing, knowledgeable about the menu and welcoming. We had a great experience.

Was served by the beautiful Char! She is very professional and bubbly. I think I will be returning again soon for some of her recommendations

Maddy our server was brilliant.

Exceptional service…Maddy was friendly and couldn’t do more to make us welcome. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Lovely breakfast and excellent service from Anne. Totally recommend.

Food was below average, my peri peri wings were clearly reheated, and prices were absurd. £18 for a basic burger? To top it off we were served by a Trans man pretending to be a woman. It made me very uncomfortable knowing a mentally ill person was handling my food. We wont be returning.

Came for lunch today. I had the tacos and the corn read as a side. I could not fault the foodie was great. So fresh and tasty. Our waitress Michelle was run off her feet as it was very busy. She was extremely friendly and attentive. Will definitely be returning.

Had a lovely lunch today, served by the fabulous Char(lotte) who can never do enough for us! Kerry, Anne, Mia all greeted us with a smile, them and Phil in the kitchen all deserve a mention as service was perfect as was the food! Loving the new bbq crunch burger 🍔

Wonderful lunch with friends. Quick service and delicious food. Anne looked after us very well.

While I put 4 for service that would be for the middle aged lady doing all the serving as it seemed she was the only one that was really working the others stood talking or handed out drinks even though the blond young lady took our drink to the wrong table. Then over heard them saying well no one likes to work a Monday.

Typical Harvester restaurant. The entrance was quite restricted with the booking desk making things difficult.

Enjoyed our meal. Would have liked some cheese with the salad.

Brilliant food, brilliant service

Always come here for a meal always excellent food, Jordan waited on us and was very professional, very courteous and checked everything was OK an excellent member of staff!. Food was excellent as always with no issues!

Very good service by Jordon in fareham

Just had a great meal here as usual! We were served by Char today who serves us a lot when we go and she is fantastic, always remembering us and making us feel welcome.

Family friendly chain restaurant with a good range of pub favourites such as fish and chips, burgers, grilled meats, tacos and rice plus plenty of vegetarian and vegan alternatives .I had the chargrilled chicken and mash which came with broccoli and peas plus gravy. Although the chicken was tasty the portion was a little on the small side and the veg were lukewarm. My companion had beef burger and fries which was much more filling- also you can fill up with unlimited salad for free upon ordering mains which was great. We had soft drinks and no desserts so I can't comment on those but again there appeared to be ample choice of sides, desserts, and drinks on the menu. I had reserved in advance so had no issues getting seated : it did appear rather busy for a midweek early eve slot . Our server was attentive, plus you can get various discounts/points if you scan the Harvester app upon payment. All in all a very reasonable experience .

food nice, service great, prices good using the reward card, but only 3/5 for this visit because we're sick of getting our meals served on tiny little rectangular plates, theyre awful

Wonderful service from Grace tonight, the four of us came in for a meal for my birthday and I was over the moon with the service, and attention to detail. She made us welcome and I was very grateful we came tonight, food, service and Grace A* keep it up we’ve had a great evening! ❤️

The food and service was spot on . Thanks to Grace for the great service

Keira is an absolutely fantastic server she knows me so well and gets everything I need immediately and is very attentive and will constantly check if we need anything she’s a total assistant the team!

Our server Grace was very friendly, helpful and attentive throughout our visit. Food was nice. However our visit was made by Grace, she is a credit to the Harvester. We wouldn’t have known she hadn’t been doing the job long by her whole demeaner, it was nice to have that conversation and wish her the best here.

Fantastic service from Keira, food was amazing too. Loving the new menu

We had yet another fantastic meal and time at the Bucaneer. Absolutely amazing service from the ‘nothing is too much trouble’, happy and attentive Keira.

Grace was very lovely and very helpful

Keira was very attentive and made our experience really lovely ☺️

We had such an enjoyable time here. Our server Michelle was very friendly and had a good connection with my girlfriends daughter. The food was delicious. 10/10 we will be back.

Michelle was a wonderful waitress. Very attentive and friendly.

Ample parking at the front of the Pub up a steep incline close to the traffic lights. Additional spaces at the rear too. Leave registration at front desk to book vehicle in. Usually take the breakfast as it is freshly cooked. Early morning is less busy and the staff are attentive to extras and refills.

Great food , and very good service especially as we hadn't booked it was very busy nothing was too much trouble will be going again soon .

On my arrival, I received a warm & friendly welcome, from my, to be waitress Christina. I was accompanied by my wife & we both took advantage of the unlimited salad bar offered to us. We both enjoyed our main meals & our friendly waitress Cristina was very attentive throughout. As an added bonus, the meals were on offer at a 50% discount.

We had an amazing service from Christina, it was my son’s birthday and we really enjoyed it with amazing food and service. 10/10 would definitely come again

Obviously not fine dining but the atmosphere was good, the food well cooked and tasty, the service was excellent - our waitress, Anne, was delightful and very helpful and the price was ok although we did use the 50% off mains offer. All in all, an enjoyable lunch out

Great food. Great service. Our waitress Christina was efficient and friendly. Very busy but service was fast. Will definitely be returning

Ate here a few times our goto harvester worth the trip from Southampton good food and service

My partner and I had breakfast here and were greeted/served by the lovely Anne. She was friendly, attentive and helpful - a real credit to the restaurant. My partner had the ultimate breakfast and I, the standard - we had no complaints. Both meals were filling and cooked well.

Michelle was brilliant and the food was great!! Thank you so much for everything 😊

Disappointed. Booked a specific area but told overbooked so put at table at the back. They had run out of T bone so had very tough sirloin instead. & then we were told they needed the table for some more guests whilst we were still chewing through the tough steaks. Disgusting & rude food very mediocre

Lovely venue for meeting up with family. Nice food, enough to eat and value for money. Staff very friendly and excellent service from Michelle through out our dinner. Even though the restaurant is busy but She's still calm and attentive. Thank you Michelle .

Wonderful service and lovely food - really nice for a big group!

Michelle was a very lovely server 10/10

Black Hair in my daughters ice cream - she has blonde Hair

Always good food and service. Just a bit quiet today.

Very slow service, good mediocre and barely warm.

Harvester's Buccaneer location is a reliable option for a quick and budget-friendly meal, especially when travelling. We've been eating here for years, popping in when we're passing through and need a cheap and filling bite. While it's not fine dining, the food is consistently served hot and fast, and the staff are always friendly and attentive. The salad bar is a Harvester staple, but as with most Harvester locations, the salad bar can get busy, and several containers were nearly empty during our visit. Plus, with a range of visitors, including children, keeping it clean seems to be a constant challenge (those greasy tongs can be a bit off-putting!). Overall, it's a decent choice, considering the price compared to the variety of meal options, such as grilled meats, burgers with a variety of toppings, pasta-based dishes, fish options like fish and chips and grilled salmon, and vegetarian choices.

Only improve. Violet serving is incompetent and walked around apologising to every table for something. We received our starter before the salad bowls and drinks glasses for refills. She knocked over the salt on the table and left it. We asked for mayonnaise she left and we never got it. Then the bill was wrong by over £15 which we had to point out and get it lowered to the correct price. She was calling everyone my darlings this is not professional.

Never had a bad meal service was Brilliant made my little one feel special on his 7th birthday Came today, 3rd March 2024, was served by Anne, absolutely wonderful service. My boys definitely had full bellys when we left..

Pre booked table was given to another party and we had to wait to be seated elsewhere (we were not late arriving). Not all drinks prices are on the menu. Took 50 minutes to place food order, our server went off shift before we ordered and never passed over to new server we had not ordered. Salad bar was empty including the rolls, resulting in a further wait for food after several enquiries to staff regarding replenishment of salad bar. Only 5 of the 6 ordered meals were served, the 6th only arrived after we queried where it was. Drink service was slow initially and we were never asked if we required refills.

Food was delicious, staff were polite and friendly. Staff at fareham harvester went out of there way to make our autistic son feel comfortable.

Went for breakfast, and had the ultimate one. Wow massive and hard to finish. The foods used were decent too, making it worth the money

Had a grate time food was lovely staff was polite and friendly will be going back again

Excellent service, server Jess was very polite friendly and attentive. Food arrived quickly and was delicious
