The Derby Pool Harvester Wallasey in Wirral

Had a couple of hours to kill having dropped daughter off for a party. Great service from Diego - so happy & cheerful. Lovely meal. Would definitely recommend!

Great meals and excellent service. A tad cool where we sat, but everywhere else was warm. Nice portion sizes. Would recommend.

We love Harvester and usually go to Bromborough which is always spot on. However…after visiting Wallasey we were extremely disappointed. The poor staff were run off their feet but trying very hard to keep things moving. We had to ask for salad bowls and cutlery etc The salad bar was empty almost the whole time of our visit. Our meal was enjoyable but not a nice relaxed experience at all.

Regulars here and really like the pub area and meals. Tonight we were dissapointed - one of the coldest nights of the year and the lovely fire was off , ordered our meals to be told after there were no bread rolls…. Half the salad bar was missing such as onions, potato salad, pasta…. Only saving grace was the meals themselves were nice. It’s a shame as in a night when it’s clearly not that busy you should look after the few customers that come in. Hopefully a one off but deficiencies should be mentioned at time of service !

Very nice and brilliant service from Amanda and the rest of the team Thank you. Nice food and nice people with a brilliant view

Excellent service by George made us feel very welcome and was very accommodating

Lovely meal with 10 of us, great service from George.

Had the breakfast which was really nice! Unfortunately the waiter was on his own and rushed off his feet, poor man! So service was very slow!

Amazing food and service! Thank you so much! See you again soon

Had a wonderful breakfast with Santa, thank you to Amanda who looked after us and all the staff x

We came for breakfast with Santa with the kids which was great. Food & service by Amanda & the rest of the team was amazing, couldn’t have done more for us. Thank you all. Santa & the grotto was really good for the kids aswell😊

Delicious food - exceptional service -well priced

Amanda was very attentive to are needs and food was lovely

Great service and choice , Diego is great!

Had the dullest dish, not sure where the chef did his training! My plate was like the scraps of veg/salad sprinkled on my flatbread. The food has deteriorated year on year. Disappointing. They also need to fix flusher on disabled toilet, it's barely accessible and hard to flush. See pic.

Love coming here! The staff are always so friendly and welcoming! The food is good value and tastes good too. I would definitely recommend this lovely restaurant 😊

Truly can’t fault this place. Diego is often our server and he is an absolute credit to the place.

Very expensive and food was cold

2 aduts and 2 children, all had a Lovely meal. The service from Diego was exceptional. Very friendly with a great sense of humour

Food quality is going downhill, best part of the experience is the server Diago, that guy is so nice and a credit to the company

Our server Whitney couldn't have done more for us, she was very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious.

The place was bloody freezing, no heating on at all, it was 6 degrees outside but felt colder inside the place. Never been to a place where people were eating food with their coats on and fully fastened up.

2 salads were missing! After calling the restaurant we were told by the manager Paul Kipps it doesn't matter because said salads were "free" with the meal. So according to general manager Paul Kipps we are not due any salad. Paul tried to convince me

2 salads were missing! After calling the restaurant we were told by the manager Paul Kipps it doesn't matter because said salads were "free" with the meal. So according to general manager Paul Kipps we are not due any salad. Paul tried to convince me of this supposed fact several times but I could not agree and still don't. We paid for salad and expect salad. Thumps down for Paul, otherwise the food was good.

Our server Ellie was the shining light. Ordered off the Christmas menu, all acceptable, worth the price. Room was a bit cold.

Big thanks to Diego, he was great.

Love this pub. Amazing view out over the sea, plenty of veggie options and delicious free salad bar. Diego has been our waiter a few times now (we keep coming back!) and he's so lovely and friendly as well as really quick and attentive. Great atmosphere and just an overall great pub.

We always been served by Diego. One of the best. Treat us fairly and kindly. Excellent service great food and atmosphere is always welcoming.

Great food and the views out to sea are brilliant. If you get a nice sunset you could be anywhere in the world. Diego is the most lovely server! Always well looked after by him! Makes your visit that bit better! Thanks for always being kind and making us laugh!

Swift and Excellent service many thanks Diego. Would definitely come again!

Great food and service from Diego!

I was here yesterday with my son and his girlfriend food was really good service was perfect overall experience was very good I will certainly be returning soon

Took my 98 year old mother out to lunch. We had excellent service from Matt. Food was excellent especially the rotisserie chicken.The staff went above and beyond. Would highly recommend.

Ask for Diego, fast service with a smile

Had a great evening with my partner to celebrate his birthday the food,the staff and service were excellent look forward to celebrating my birthday on the 6th of January with my partner and two more friends

Diego always happy great service as always Food lovely

Food was great and the service was impeccable. Alicia was really attentive and very genuine. We had a great time for my birthday and will definitely be back.

Lovely place, highly recommended.

We sat down at 6:16 and waited 10mins for the waiter, he took the drinks order and we had to wait a further 15 mins for him to come back to take the food order, twice went to check if some of the menu were still available. Some wanted jacket potatoes but was they wouldn’t have any for 40 minutes. He took the order but came back and said there wasn’t any chicken now. Took ages for the food to arrive and it wasn’t very hot, couldn’t find him to complain. He only came back for the dessert order. Salad was okay but no thousand island dressing and only white rolls.

Alicia was our server. She was very attentive and met all our needs especially with one of the children who had an allergy to nuts

We had a delightful evening at Harvester Derby Pool in Wallasey! Our server, Alicia, was attentive and friendly, making us feel very welcome. The setting was perfect for a relaxed catch-up with friends, and the food was excellent, with a great variety of options to suit everyone. We all thoroughly enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere, and the service added to the experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a friendly, comfortable spot to unwind with friends.

Great place to visit for lunch or dinner, with fantastic views out across Leasowe Bay and the Irish Sea . Always lovely food with great service by staff. Getting your food can take a little longer than usual when the restaurant is busy, so bare that in mind.

This occasion at this establishment was an amazing experience. The server we had, Amanda, was an excellent host for our family table. They made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us numerous times throughout each course. The pudding was delicious. The glazed choux bun was delicious and light despite its heavy appearance. The salad bar, a staple in my opinion in any harvester, was as delicious as it has always been. Thank you for another great night. Here’s to many more!

Amazing place with beautiful views

Not as good as the Harvester in Bromborough.

Great service by Diego as usual Food was lovely always on hand to serve always feel very welcome and Diego is very helpful

Diego was our server he was very cheerful & happy he was great very efficient & our food was lovely the steak I ordered was a little over done but that was only fault

Outstanding customer service. Thank you to the ladies that went the extra mile to make me feel at home away from home.

One of the best with excellent views to the beach... not to be missed...food is great too...

Our server Deago was very helpful and attentive and he deserves to be recognised for his pleasant disposition

everything fine. not keen on burger but personal choice

We visited this lovely restaurant tonight, we was greeted by Diego, a lovely friendly man who made us welcome, our meal came approx 30 mins later, which was fair for mixed grill, both our meals were cooked to perfection and were piping hot, the salad bowl was lovely too, very good value, Diego was very helpful he went above and beyond, he was so lovely on our last visit too. we will definetaly be returning and can highly recommend.

Last week we came here and tried the waffle with banana, but we wouldn’t recommend it. The bananas were partly frozen and still had some peel, and the waffle wasn’t fresh—just a sugary pre-made one. However, this week was a much better experience! We had a great meal, and Alicia was awesome—really friendly and on point. Compliments to her. Also; If you're getting dessert, definitely go for the Glazed Choux Bun, it was super tasty!

Served by Alicia who always has a welcome smile and provides great service and great food. Lovely lady to deal with not matter how busy she gets

Went for a 40th meal food was delicious staff were lovely we had George at our table nothing was too much thanks guys see you again soon x

Slow service, ended up walking out before food arrived.

I have emailed a complaint. Slow service, paid for pudding but left without it as was ignored for a long time with our plates left Infront of us. Salad bar was nearly empty and asked to restock but was the restocked too late. Ended up paying at the bar when we left as noone comes to our table. If you see my reviews from other places, I don't think I've ever left a negative one but we won't visit this Harvester again.

Excellent food. They were happy for us to have the dog with us. Food came in good time. Alicia was friendly, polite and the service was great. Very happy with our visit. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent food and service and fantastic service from Alicia as always

Great new menu and great staff 👍

Alicia was fantastic, so pleasant and looked after our every needs. We only came for desserts but it was well worth the visit. She was so personal and the rest of the staff was excellent helping out aswell.

Called in for lunch & served by Martin who was polite, kind & attentive. He was let down a bit by the kitchen not advising him that there was an hours wait for chicken dishes. He was very apologetic. The food we did get was served quickly & was piping hot. The actual place is a bit drab & run down - it could do with a make over to brighten it up, especially due to its locality. Big thanks to Martin.

Our order was a disaster from start to finish. It was nearly 30 mins late over the allocated time and arrive cold. We also was missing the 3 mixed salad bowls that come with the small meals as the price has now gone up on them. Terrible.

Stopped off on the bikes for a few pints and some food, we were served by lovely staff but when seated for our small dishes we were served by Amanda who is honestly a real credit to your team, she advised me and my mate on what’s best and was overall very professional.

The food was not hot and was a little greasey

Food arrived luke warm, macaroni was a solid disc, 1 macaroni deep, just covering the bottom of the tray…. Missing 2 Pepsi max and 3 salads. I was unable to ask for a refund of just these items as it was part of a meal, I had to request a refund on the meal where most items were missing. We ate what arrived it was ok, just not hot.

Visited this afternoon with the family. Diego was amazing. He went above and beyond with his service and was so friendly. He was working so hard keeping everyone happy. As a person who has done this job myself in the past, I understand how difficult it can be. Diego gave no sign of this. Food was nice, atmosphere was good but we will deffo return for the great service

We were served by Ellie today who is always fantastic. The whole team here is always wonderful and the food is really tasty. Very pleased with the new look menu although I went for the classic 1983 combo.

This review is purely for our server, Alicia, who did a fantastic job

Another brilliant visit. Food is good and service from staff is always friendly and efficient. Today Martin looked after us and ensured everything was ok - staff are amazing

Love going to the Derby Pool. Great food at reasonable prices 👌 Superb service from Ellie! Nice and relaxed atmosphere.

Alicia was our server. Helpful speedy service made our visit very pleasant. She even came and helped us(wife is a wheelchair user) with the exit door. An enjoyable experience. Thank you.

Place was pretty much empty with 2 other people there, I ordered a burger with chips, that is all, I asked for a drink and it never arrived, I ended up in there for 2 hours 38 minutes, that's how long it took for me to be waited on, served, and waited on again to take the bill, it's took me less than 10 minutes to eat my burger after the 40 minute wait. I wasn't going to leave a tip, but I gave it half an hour after my bill arrived, and left because no one was waiting. Upon arrival there where 7 staff just sat around laughing looking at there phones. 2 Hours and 38 minutes. When my food did arrive. One it was almost cold. 2 it was rock solid, I cam only describe the texture as bark from a soft pine. It tasted very heavily of salt with not much other flavour of beer and the cheese seemed to be missing, I ate it anyway because this and the drink I bought but did not recieve came to £20, but with no staff on the bar and waitresses few and far between I had no hope of getting anything resolved. In all fairness to the staff on the rare occasion I did find them, they where very friendly, but utterly useless at carrying out any tasks that they are employed to do. As a food critic I take my job seriously, but I honestly don't have the words for the food I consumed today. I look forward to visiting Morisons up the road and having a £1.49 microwave meal from the freezer this evening. If I had it my way I would have had the place temporarily shut down whilst the staff are trained and disciplined. But sadly there where no health code violations. Just poorly managed staff amd poorly trained chefs. A lady sat behind me stated she had a fish allergy, I noticed through her cournversation with a young gentleman that they had experienced the same level of disgust as I had. They left before me with the young fellow complaining that they are taking too long to get change and also left them a tip, stating that he was paying to leave by leaving said tip. I don't recommend you visit a harvester pub restaurant. They all seem to have horrible tales like this, and the time I decided to visit one, I too fell victim to the criminal the restaurant was.

We had our wedding reception here and it was amazing! Staff were super helpful and couldn’t do enough to make sure everything was perfect. Special thanks to Michelle, who looked after us all.

Loads of litter ruined the experience. Toilets are flooded and dirty

Food was really nice, the fish was lovely. Service speed despite being a busy Friday evening was pretty quick and service by Ellie was friendly and excellent. Recommend, but if you like quiet atmosphere then perhaps go on a weekday daytime.

This is so bad I waited over 2 hours and the girl said she Is gonna check how long it is going to be 3 times and she never put the order in so i asked the man how long it is going to be and he told us the order wasn't placed this is appalling

The main reason for ordering was to get a salad as I'm unwell,and had enjoyed the orders we have given you over past week,husband and I,salad and calamari was missing,corn on the cob tiny,ribs,my husband got as no calamari ,have phoned hope2hear

Good food standard for harvesters, good service by Diego

Great sea views. Lovely location.

Staff very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend. Great food.

Fabulous art deco building recommended by a friend and with stunning views of sunset at the right time of day. As a previous reviewer has said, our server was Ellie and she was lovely friendly and courteous. Food was speedy, well cooked, great value for money and for a first time Harvester customer, I’d not hesitate to bring family back here again, especially as it welcomes dogs and there’s a fabulous beach to walk them right by it.

Great menu options with deals on 2/3 courses midweek. Rotisserie chicken and ribs are specialties, and of an excellent standard. Salad bar is a great idea though needs refilling more frequently as unattended kids tend to loiter like vultures! Service is welcoming, friendly, and patient.

Impromptu breakfast date....have never been before. What a gem of a place....great service made very welcome....didn't catch the servers name but what a lovely guy! Had the ultimate breakfast x 2....great value for money coffee on tap and great views. Will definitely return and recommend to family and friends. Thanks derby pool for a lovely morning ❤️

Food was good and although very busy there was no delay in getting served. We both ordered off the lunch menu which was £13.99 for 2 courses. My wife asked if we could exchange a desert for a hot drink and was told yes. At the end of the meal my wife decided not to have a drink after all but then when the bill came one of the meals had been charged at the full menu rate. When queried the Karina the waitress explained that because my wife had only one course the discount couldnt be applied. Karina offered us a desert to take home which strangely meant the bill would be cheaper. In the end I had another coffee and that also reduced the bill. So 1 point off for a crazy offer system but full marks for food, service and the manner in which Karina sorted the anomaly.

Waited over one hour for dessert, with my two elderly disabled parents. In the end cancelled it. Still charged for it on the set menu? I will never use this place again. Very stressful and inconsiderate.

Not the first time here. We were shown to a table straight away. Once seated the waiter, Martin took our drink order, gave us time to look at menu then took our order. Would like to say how friendly and also professional he was. My husband had the pork belly and really enjoyed it.

We came for a family meal and was welcomed by Tracey she was very attentive to our needs fast service and was lovely to chat to she made us feel welcome and the food was great as usual for a good value for money too

Tracy gave us service! Really enjoyed my birthday, great food as always! Would always recommend the Derby Pool, sunset to end the night.

Excellent service from Martin. Very clean restaurant with lovely views over the sea. Will definitely return soon. Highly recommended

My favourite place, dinner with a fabulous view, weather permitting.

Well cooked and presented,good delivery

Paid extra for sweet potato fries that were missing, the lids on drinks were not secure came half emptied, poor delivery man!

Matt, was our server and he was friendly and approachable and welcomed our party of 5. Our meals were delicious with wide choice on the menu. It was my birthday and Matt and the staff made it a special occasion

Our server was amazing shame the salad bar and the burger was very dry

Have been for breakfast a number of times, and it is always really pleasant.

Took my mum for lunch here today and she loved it. Great service and delicious food!

Fabulous menu . Great for the kids . Delicious food. Salad bar was great . Good value for money ...Our waitress Alicia was superb .

Nice food & location. Service by Alicia was excellent.

Good food and fast, friendly service
