Descubrí que este lugar sirve para fiestas de cumpleaños. Celebramos la fiesta de cumpleaños de nuestra hija 2 aquí y fue la mejor decisión que tomamos! A todo el mundo le encantó! Ubicación - Es muy fácil llegar a este lugar. Había tanto aparcamiento disponible dentro del aparcamiento del restaurante y también fuera en la calle. Nadie tuvo ningún problema con el aparcamiento. Lugar - Teníamos mucho espacio dentro del lugar para nuestros huéspedes. Teníamos aproximadamente 22 invitados. Prácticamente teníamos la mitad del restaurante. Fue brillante. Teníamos las puertas del jardín abiertas también. Teníamos un montón de mesas y sillas. Teníamos un montón de sillas altas disponibles también para los niños. Comida. El chef, Bernie, preparó una brillante selección de comida para nuestros huéspedes. Todos lo disfrutaron. La comida era genial! Las alitas de pollo desaparecieron en cuestión de minutos, eran tan populares y los mini pasteles eran tan sabrosos. Había una gran selección de comida disponible para todos. Había dedos de pescado, pasteles, alitas de pollo, bocados de pollo, nachos y mucho más. Bernie merece un diez de diez por eso, literalmente a todos les encantó la comida! Teníamos una cuenta para las bebidas y quien pidiera una bebida la tenía en cuestión de segundos. Sin esperas y sin retrasos, eran de precios muy razonables también. Servicio - El personal era fantástico. Siempre venían a nuestra zona y preguntaban si necesitábamos algo. Fueron muy atentos y muy amables! La calificación general fue de diez sobre diez para todo. ¡Gracias a todos los que hicieron que el segundo cumpleaños de nuestra hija fuera genial para recordar!

Debo decir que la comida aquí es absolutamente brillante. Hoy he probado la parrilla mixta y he mejorado para un filete más grande. Pedí un filete cocido raro y salió exactamente como lo quería. De hecho, me impresionó mucho el tamaño de la parrilla mixta, tanta comida y todo estaba fresco. Fue tan sabroso. Mi esposa tenía la costilla de res y eso se veía increíble. Dijo que se cayó del hueso. Probé algunos también y definitivamente fue un plato encantador. El goteo de carne era tan sabroso. Nuestra hija tenía la comida de los niños y ella realmente disfrutó de eso también. Fue agradable y tranquilo hoy, un montón de asientos disponibles y un ambiente muy tranquilo. Parece que este será nuestro lugar para esos encantadores almuerzos de la tarde. Nuestra camarera era Anna y ella sabía todo sobre el menú que había que saber. La comida que Anna recomendó fue lo que elegimos y fue una recomendación brillante. 10 de 10 por la comida y 10 de 10 por el servicio de Anna. Muy recomendable.

If you liked the old style furniture and decoration of this quieter family harvester then you may not be so happy with the new modern (MacDonald's??)style seating But don't worry there's still a few wobbly tables left !!Happily the menu hasn't changed But nor has the rather annoying habit of bringing the main course before you've finished your first course from salad barAll in all its still a good choice for a meal outEnjoy

Pidieron a mi mesa hoy porque sólo pedimos un postre y no comida, pero Jack no creo que el camarero nos encontrará en una mesa en el bar antes de mudarnos, así que mis amigos y yo nos queda alrededor de un bar animado con nuestras bebidas y ningún sitio donde sentarse.

Así que, yo y mi hijo eran sólo descansar y pensábamos que queríamos conseguir algo de comida, Cosechadora está bien cerca de nosotros y nos encanta ese lugar. Solo ha renovado y podemos decir con toda seguridad que este tanto nuevo negocio da. El diseño interior es plátanos y el exterior también ha sido exagerada. La música estaba fresquito e incluso tocaban reggae, que es genial.Ahora, la comida puede pedir? Me quedaré con éxito las malas noticias primero, aunque los precios han ido subiendo, ahora unos 10 calamar por principal, lo que alentaría mucho, pero todavía es un aumento de los precios de la vieja escuela. Sin embargo, y este es un gran sin embargo, la comida es absolutamente portazos, mejor que nunca. Comenzamos en el comienzo, el carro de ensaladas se ha modernizado a max, con nueva selección pickled tanto creemos que la ensalada tiene la profundidad de lo que era anteriormente deficiente. El único inconveniente con la ensalada... debes dejar espacio para el principal.Pues bien, eso nos lleva muy bien en no, a la red. ¿Cómo podemos describir ellos, permítanme describir como unas buenas vacaciones. Buena compañía fantástica, horarios de vuelo, el sol radiante de todo el personal, todo incluido, acceso a la playa, piscinas privadas, gran sala de juegos (superar mi mate en fútbol de mesa) y por encima de todo la comida no eran malas. En otras palabras, la cosechadora es las mejores vacaciones que he tenido.Y teníamos el desierto, y también era bastante buena. Se Tiran.Una última shoutout al personal, gran capacidad, gran María del Gryphon mandem y coger la próxima vez para algunas costillas deshuesadas y burger más jamaicana y eton tartabrrrup desordenadas.

Nuestra primera visita, ya que ha sido reformado recientemente, tiene un aspecto mucho más moderno y espacioso. También los pasos en la parte trasera del restaurante han sido sacadas. Ha cambiado la ensalada con nuevas adiciones como aceitunas, pepinillos y silverskin onions, así como el típico. Nuestra comida principal era el mismo, como de costumbre, aunque tuve salmón que estaba muy bien con una amplia de pimiento rojo y arroz. Puedes más de salsa en ollas cerca del bar de ensaladas si quieres. La única queja fue que el papel ligero fue servido en rompe como yo estaba comiendo, que no era agradable. Nuestros postres eran buenas, tuve tarta de lima, que de nuevo estaba bien presentado. Nuestra camarera Aimee era muy servicial y educado, y era tan agradable para los niños. Volveré pronto.

Tiendo a visitar Cosecheros en la tarde como se tiende a conseguir un servicio mucho mejor y esta vez no fue la excepción. Mandy nuestro servidor que recuerdo de años atrás, todavía tiene el excelente servicio al cliente en el que ella es una líder en ese campo. Otros servidores (OTRO 4) eran muy buenas. La comida es buena y la defensiva a través del tipo de relación calidad-precio. sección La ensalada está incluido en el precio de su comida principal, así que teniendo esto en cuenta, entonces, no te puedes quejar.

Sin embargo, no esperaba tener que esperar más de una hora. Dicho esto la camarera era amable y educado.

Three of us went for a meal after work and front of house quickly met us and took us to a table (we had not booked). We were plonked on a table too big for us, while smaller tables were available they had not been cleared and cleaned (and were not cleaned for over an hour). The menu had a decent selection of meaty dishes at a reasonable price but after ordering we waiting a long time for the food to be delivered. We could see the kitchen at all three dishes were ready but left on the side and not brought to the table for around 20 minutes, so this was the fault of the waiting staff rather than the kitchen.The food was therefore delivered lukewarm and had to be sent back and got a blast in the microwave so was not terribly tasty. The whole experience was very mediocre, only livened up by good company. I'd not been to Harvester in over ten years and it'll probably be a similar time before I return.

This place was unbelievably bad. The only positive was the Old Speckled Hen beer. The beef ribs were chewy, served cold and dry, the chicken was over cooked and dry, the burgers were tasteless and dry. They had run out of chilli, they had run out of the wine we ordered, they had run out of ice cream. The salad bar looked like a kid had been playing with it.Avoid this place

On entry, left standing around waiting for anybody to say Hi, with you in a minute then a surly young man plonked us on the worst table in the place, we moved. The place was not at all busy. Waitress did her very best despite the very poorly cooked food. Gammon and chips was served as in a greasy spoon cafe. Wanted a desert but one course had taken over 1 hour so went without. Have happily used it regularly in the past but won't again until they get in management who raise the standards to what they were with old management.

It's a Harvester, so standard cheap food for a night when you just can't be bothered to cook. Compared to some other Harvesters it is getting tired now, and could do with a proper refit. Some waiting staff are excellent, others seem to struggle.

Whenever we have visitors at a weekend we book at the Gryphon Harvester. Always very welcoming and the food is always reliable. I do really enjoy the salad bar, the only trouble is I need to watch how much salad I have otherwise there is no room for the delicious deserts they have on the menu. It is well worth saving some room for one of these deserts even if you share one.

We had a party of 6 including 2 little ones. The food arrived with no presentation skills at all. The original combo was tiny...hardly any chips at all, the mixed grill had been sitting under the lamps for a while and was dry and tasteless, the 'I want it all' had sweet potato fries which were dripping in grease...just awful. Lettuce on the slad cart was mostly brown, the onion is now swimming in water (!) and the potato salad mayonaisse dressing was odd to say the least.The kids meals were sausage chips and peas and I wish I'd had that. It was the only thing that looked hot and remotely appetising. We have used this place for years but after a few duff visits now, we won't be back. Sad as it had such happy memories of family celebrations there. The waiter was lovely though...best thing about the visit although getting the bill at the end was a real mission as he had too many other guests vying for his attention.

I went to this particular harvester this evening and was once again shocked by the uncooked fish and chips that was served up to me, it was still like jelly under the batter. The food took 30 mins to arrive, the drinks took just as long. They did replace the fish and chips but since I had already been there an hour and had such awful service I was no longer hungry. This has happened before as well. I have also previously ordered Irish coffee and returned it due to this harvester not using cream but a dairy substitute. Also ordered the profiteroles previously and those are also not filled with cream, it's a cream substitute. My husbands food was also not great, looked rather bland and unappetising for the 3rd time, since we have given this place a try now for the third time.

Had been to Gryphon Harvester for several years and the quality and food used to be reasonable and deteriorated recently. During the last visit we were served with undercooked pork ribs and when we raised the issue with the waitress concerned the reply from her was 'I cannot taste the food each time I serve, we only heat the food and serve as it comes pre-cooked, packed and delivered'. Do all Harvester outlets serve pre-cooked and delivered foods? We will not be going to any of them now.

Been to this Harvester several times and generally pleased. Went with family yesterday and there were 8 of us. Our waitress knew my sister-in-law so maybe that was an advantage. Good salad bar which was clean and well stocked. Unfortunately our meals arrived so promptly that we had hardly started eating our salad. Two people chose gammon but sadly it had to be sent back to the kitchen due to being very undercooked. I chose their Signature fish & chips which was enjoyable except for the egg cup sized portion of dry mushy peas. All the chips are cooked in some kind of herb coating which we found very salty.Overall a pleasant meal for the cost and a good Harvester compared to the one at Stevenage which I would advise to avoid. Service was friendly and attentive.

I have just left the gryphon harvester after yet another disappointing visit! The last 5 times we have been has been shocking and is quite clear that it has gone down hill! Meals have either things missing from it or if you have anything from the grill you're lucky if you get it hot with everything it is meant to have! On times we have come here we usually order mixed grill or a combo platter for one and ribs.. In the past these dishes have always been really tasty and we'll presented, I would say for the past few months we have seen it go massively down hill, tasteless food, cold, sloppy presentation and with every meal something is ALWAYS missing from it.. In past visits we've had mixed grills with no tomato, no peas, no chicken , no sausage and more recently RAW gammon which we had to send back to be cooked and by the time it did I had finished my meal whilst my partner was still waiting for his to return!! After leaving this time the mixed grill had no gravy and the meal was horrendous! If you threw the measley excuse of a steak at the ground I'm certain it would have dented the floor!! Unedible cremated scrap of "steak" when I asked the waitress to come check our meal after no check back the manager also followed , (just need to state, this is not the usual manager that we have seen on our visits, the waitress had told us that the other manager was on holiday..) I continued to explain our complaint about the mixed grill and why there was a tiny scrap of chicken and a worthless piece of steak on the plate and why there was no gravy when it stated on the menu that it came with it ! To be told by the manager to basically be quiet!! he was trying to feed us a poor excuse as to why this rubbish was served to us then offered to get another chicken breast when it came back it look tasty and far better then the other excuse of a chicken breast that was first put on there, the manager didn't hesitate to pitch that the original chicken that came out originally was in fact the correct size and that the steak was done by weight!! I've posted a picture so you can see the size of this "steak" I couldn't believe it!! After all the mixed grills we have had here in the past and actually having a whole chicken breast to then have half of a chicken then halved again is shocking!! It's priced at £12.99!! Disgraceful ! If that is indeed your spec for that meal you need to inform people!! I never would get on trip advisor to write such a bad review but after experiencing such high standards in years before to now this, I feel I had to say something. Chefs ALL need to be replaced and management need to change their attitude!! my partner and I have now decided we will not be coming here again... so disappointing as I travel from Hertfordshire to come to this harvester.

We travelled from Hertfordshire to this restaurant which is the best in the region. I have eaten here many times before as I used to live locally but have now moved to Hertfordshire. The restaurant is clean and tidy. The toilets are well maintained. We arrived at around 4pm and waited only a few minutes to be seated. We opted for a window seat and the manager pulled the blinds to shade the glaring sun. We ordered the chicken wings and potato skins as a starter. Initially, the wrong starters arrived. Our starters were flavoured, hot and overall tasty. The main dinner arrived cold. The chicken and chips were cold and the prawns arrived complete with shells rather than prepared. I sent the cold dinner back and asked for a new fresh one. A few minutes later the same dinner returned but heated up. I returned it again and repeated my request for a fresh one. The freshly cooked meal finally arrived with an apology but it should be standard that meals returned aren't sent back microwaved. My boyfriend ordered a medium steak but it arrived medium rare which was disappointing. The salad bar was great with a wide selection and the area kept clean and monitored regularly. The desserts were nice but nothing special. Overall, this place used to be the nuts but has now gone downhill. I had been looking forward to this dinner all week but it was a let down. There was a special £5 off a £25 meal which made the meal value for money but the quality of the meal was lacking. There is no attention to detail here.

This harvester is brilliant in so many ways , you are bound to have great time. I have eaten at all type of places in London and this place is amazing. My experience of london restaurants in general is that they are are so focused on the money that they care little about the taste , visual side of the presentation and when there is a problem they are often so arrogant.This is the diamond in the rough and would get a 9.7 out of 10 - I feel that may even be to low but on the basis of all humans are imperfect I think this is fair!

Last week my Father took myself two other adults and two boys ages 6 and 9 for a Sunday lunch at the Harvester. I am keen on both budget and mid range eating am reviewing this venue with similar priced venues I have visited in mind. Firstly the welcome: That was fine. My Step mum who is a regular was recognised greeted and we were quickly taken to a table.The decor is smart and modern in a kind of barn style , the chairs were a little uncomfortable which several of us noted. The toilets were dated and scruffy but OK , certainly more pub than restaurant.My first criticism is that the tables were far too close together , I felt hemmed in and cramped and also it was far louder than I would have liked. On the plus side it is nicely decorated in a 'barn style' and was clean.Food arrived in reasonable time , two in the party had the 'deluxe fish and chips ' and though i didnt , it looked very nice. They were both happy with it. I ordered a Chicken platter to share with my eleven year old. the menu said on your own or to share for two. It was absolutely massive !. However all the chicken on it tasted exactly the same apart from the breaded chicken which was very nice. The other chicken was all very plain and rather tasteless. I also thought the menu was quite The platter was £20 between two of us , I'd have rather seen a bit more taste rather than tons of tasteless chicken. My youngest had a huge beefburger meal. I ate a piece and to be honest the burger was also quite devoid of taste ( at £9 I'd expect a better burger meal as per my Weatherspoon's review). The deserts ranged from Ice cream Sundaes to my 'Fudge Brownie pile' and you couldn't fault them , they were about £4.50 each.The bill for 4 adults and two children with one adult drinking a couple of glasses of wine was £100.Overall, I personally wouldn't choose to go there for the following reasons. Too cramped for me , too noisy for me and very average food that's cheaper at Weatherspoon's and tastier. I'm not saying it was a bad experience but it wasn't exactly overwhelming either.Regards Mas

As part of the Harvester chain this won't be the place to come for your wedding anniversary but it does provide a consistent service and reasonably priced quality food. The menu is large enough to please everyone and caters for childrens' portions. Situated in a former pub with just one small bar retained for drinks, this is your typical local family restaurant.The value is excellent with a salad bar always available for unlimited visits and numerous special offers to keep the cost down.WIFI is provided and gives you the opportunity to register with Harvester and from time to time extra special offers will be emailed to you.I ate there on this occasion but I have also tried their takeaway service which at £10 for two meals from a slightly reduced menu is cheaper than fish and chips or the local Chinese. They have also just started an eat all you can brunch menu!You really can't go wrong eating here and I have always found the staff to be friendly and helpful.

I visited with family in September 2014 for Sunday lunch.The restaurant is noisy due to a large number of tables, lots of children and a kitchen serving area that fronts directly into the restaurant.The food is average Harvester fare. They can't cook a steak properly so best to choose something they can't ruin. The food is fairly cheap and the service is friendly if a little rough around the edges.

If you want excellent value for money and good food this is a good choice. The food is always good, nothing spectacular but you don't expect it in this type of restaurant. The choice is very good and if you want you can sit there allday drinking soft drinks for free.

Probably visit the Gryphon approx 3 times a year. It simply offers unrivalled value for money. Had lunch there today with my wife. The salad bar was well stocked & fresh looking. Both our mains / desserts were of good portion size & tasty. Our waiter was friendly & several times checked if everything was ok. The only criticism would be, that our table took a while to be cleared. Without any doubt, the best harvester in the area.

Have visited this restaurant lots of times over many years. The food is always excellent, the salad bar well stocked and tidy and the staff friendly and helpful. There is always a lot of diners which shows how popular this eatery is. Excellent value for money and we'll worth a visit.

Not only great value for money, but good quality pub food and extremely cheerful service make this an excellent venue for a drink and a meal. Its not a Michelin Star restaurant but you will leave very satisfied

We have visited the Gryphon fairly often and generally enjoy the experience. It was very busy for a Wednesday lunch time but the salad bar was well stocked and looked fresh. Our meal was served suprisingly quickly considering how full the place was. The waiters and waitresses were very efficient and polite. Will be coming back as much prefer this one to our nearer Harvester in the Southbury Leisure Centre.

We are local people and have visited the Gryphon with friends on a fairly regular basis but will give it a miss for a good while now owing to the past three visits being extremely disappointing food wise. Warm chips, warm burger with a very cold slab of cheese placed on top. Fish that had seen better days and presentation non existent. What a shame because the waiting staff are so friendly and helpful, however, the service is very slow.

We went with friends after a day at Alexandra Palace and whilst the food was ok and it was quiet so no wait for a table, I felt that it was too quiet and they'd annoyingly yet sensibly only put out meagre salad which wasn't particularly great. Service was friendly and pleasant and main meals were good. Wouldn't rush back specifically but when in the area, would be a definite consideration.

Visited on a Saturday evening so was busy but service was fantastic. Prices are great value for money especially when taking kids. Food was great. Have paid much more in other restaurants for much less. Lovely busy family atmosphere.

I have visited the Gryphon a number of times over the years. I'm not exactly a regular customer, but may go once every few months or so. It used to provide decent food with prompt service. Unfortunately this is no longer the case. My hubby and I have returned a few times (in case the first 'fail' was a one off) but on each recent visit, the food and service have been below par. Getting the food takes an awfully long time now and when it arrives the veg nearly always seem to be over cooked and the meat or fish dry and unappetising. This would maybe be acceptable if it was a local greasy spoon but the prices here warrant better than they are now serving up. In fact, the lamb chops I've had in my local cafe have been superior.It's a shame because this used to be a place that served decent pub fare but is now decidedly mediocre.

Located in a pleasant residential road with plenty of onsite and street parking. The restaurant itself is located in an attractive large house type pub with an outside beer garden, particularly welcome in fine weather. Inside, the bar where you can wait to be seated, is light and airy with comfortable seating. The dining area is fairly extensive but arranged to give you a degree of privacy. The area is clean and well maintained. We were seated straight away but as you cannot book I suspect they can get get very busy, and you may have to wait in the bar. The staff are efficient, friendly and attentive. The food itself is typical of the type you get at a chain restaurant. The salad bar was good and was regularly refreshed while we were there. The main course's were fairly average but in fairness you are not paying the earth. I don't know if the food is prepared earlier and reheated when required but it did taste as if this was the case. The sweets were large and tasty. Overall we had an enjoyable evening and this is a good place for a family meal at a reasonable price.

It was my step-mother’s birthday and father took six of us to the Gryphon. It was a lot quieter than our other Sunday lunch visits – but less busy seemed to result in less care in the kitchen. First we exchanged two dirty knives with cleaner ones from adjacent table, then we ordered our meals. We discarded one slightly dirty dish from the pile at the salad bar to find and even dirtier one underneath. When our meals came the chips were just warm, the peas and the sweet corn must have been sitting in warm water for too long and had lost all flavour. We called the waitress who apologised and cheerfully fetched us freshly cooked hot chips. To be fair – the meat / seafood part of the meal for each of us was fine. “Why do we come here?”, I thought as I rolled my eye upwards – only to spot – cobwebs above us! Oh dear no!

We dined at this very busy harvester restaurant/pub last sunday and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Although it was really really busy we were called to a table within about 15 minutes of arriving. We enjoyed drinks in the well decorated and well furnished pub whilst waiting for a table. After giving the food order to the waitress we enjoyed a mixed salad from the self service salad bar and I was impressed by the variety on offer plus brown and white bread rolls and butter or margarine as well as a good variety of salad dressings.The main course meals were excellent and the service was very good. Overall it was good value for money.

We've been to the Gryphon in Grange Park several times - it's the nearest eating place to where my father lives. He's ninety-something but still mobile and active. We go there for Sunday lunch - as do many other families locally. It's a standard Harvester - order your main course, then head for the salad bar. The salad dressings and toppings are good, but the salad itself is not the best quality - cheap and only just cheerful.The main courses are pretty good value and can be pretty good quality - though the Sunday lunchtime popularity means that they are occasionally served under cooked, over cooked and/or lukewarm. This happened at our most recent visit.You can't book a table, so it's pot-luck how long you wait to be seated and where you sit. This time we ended up surrounded by noisy families and all my dad's hearing-aid could pick up (and amplify) was kids from nearby tables. He was almost crying at one point. If we go back, we'll insist on waiting for a table in a corner so at least we can hold a conversation.

I can only rate as I have experienced here and reckon these are probably a 3.5 on a better day. Took 40 minutes for the food to arrive and we only stayed because my grandson of 3 years was so hungry. We did hear others who came in being warned of a 45 minute wait, we didn't get that warning. Not an easy task keeping a hungry 3 year old boy settled at a table for that length of time. When the food arrived, my grandons cheese and ham toastie was a cheese an onion toastie. Not a chance we were going to send it back and wait however long for a correction, so scraped the onions out and thankfully he was ok with that. The Big Breakfast. Good and Bad. It was big, no complaint there. The sausages were really really really good, the bacon was very nice and not too salty. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the buttered sourdough was also very nice. Now the Bad.... The beans. Just my preference but i would have preferred them to have been served seperately in a pot as they often are. There was a very generous portion of them and way too much juice. Don't think they were served from a slotted spoon, the plate was dominated by bean juice and infected everthing. They tasted ok though. The 2 inch diameter tomatoes were cooked but served whole, not a great look. The mushrooms were horrible, black, spongy and stewed. Black Pudding.. don't eat that !! so no comment either way on it. Half slice of fried bread was drowned in bean juice so soggy. The tea was ok, nothing special. Very annoying however that tea for 2 came with a small jug of milk for 2 cups of tea for a pot that done 4-5 cups easily. Had to get a refill from very busy servers.The Black Americano coffee was not good at all though, like really not good. No one would order this twice ever i'm certain. I'm sure if i'd attended during a less busy time when service was normal and orders delieverd accurately, I would have scored them higher. But you can only review what you have experienced and experience is relative to cost too. 2 Big Breakfasts, Cheese and Onion Toastie, tea for 2 and a Coffee, £42 odd. I think 2 stars is fair for our experience here, probably 3.5 with normal service. Could be 4.5 with a better detail to breakfast items and should have been better given top dollar prices. Again great great sausages though.

We have just had the most beautifully moist, white battered haddock and chips. We ordered a mixture of regular and large - and the large were absolutely huge, all with perfect, crisp batter. A large portion of chips fed more than four with good appetites. We always have our fish and chips from Fish and Chips at - and never disappointed. Delivery was on time ( was able to book mid afternoon) and the food was piping hot. Recommended

I can't help it, but I find Harris & Hoole disappointing. It's major retail dressed up to be local. Unlike the big brand coffee shops that don't disguise what they are, it feels as if Harris is trying to be something it's not. There's nothing especially wrong with it, but if I find myself with a choice, I do tend to go elsewhere.
