The Potter's Kiln Harvester in Waveney

Booked a table but had to wait 30 minutes to be seated and then when sat clearly a table that was for 6 opposed to 8 so quiet a squeeze. Food was good and service very good just a shame we feel squeezed in for our booking - literally...

Last minute decision to go for tea. Walked in and they had a table for 3 despite being really busy. All staff were friendly, and our server Penny was ace. Her outfit for Halloween was awesome. Food was great, nice n tasty, came out piping hot. All fantastic.. shame we are only here for one night. Would deffo come again.

Very nice but expensive for a lunch !

We was a group of 7 we all had steak mine was cremated and others where all alike none of us where happy everything else was brilliant the salad bar a big favorite, but felt rushed by staff no sooner had we finished we was handed the bill

Brill lovely food reasonably priced recommended 👌 nice quick tea. 50% good banging unlimited breakfast 8.99 bacon sausage 😋 beans hash brown mushrooms 🍄 eggs 🥚 scrambled fried or poached. Unlimited tea and coffee and toast. Defo worth a try 👏 👌 👍🏻fried slice banging 😋 breakfast gone up to 9.99 but still bargain. Just ad few extra items lol 😆 no unlimited breakfast menu changed a lil 😋

Lovely meal salad bar is brilliant good service

I have allergies they are always spot on with accommodating me

Menu confusing until very nice waitress explained 👌

Harvester has always been somewhat inconsistent in terms of quality, but I’ve noticed a real improvement over the past year. My family and I visit regularly, and we’ve always found the staff to be friendly, the service efficient, and the food consistently delicious. The ribs and chicken were cooked to perfection, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming—they always find a good spot for us. My only suggestions would be to offer cod instead of haddock, and although corn on the cob is out of season, it would be great to see it back on the menu. Special thanks to Ariel, who was particularly cheerful and attentive during our visit today she is an asset to your team 😊

Great food staff always willing to help 👍

As 4 adults with a 3 year old we were very impressed, with the food, choice of drinks. The whole experience was great. Thank you Luke for your attending.

Ariel was amazing and honestly had a lovely time. Great staff and great service overall.

Had a nice meal just me and my son on Saturday the 19th, we loved the salad bar and the kids meal was fantastic, only issue was that I was served a chicken meal when I ordered halloumi however this was quickly rectified so no big deal. Our server Morgan was absolutely fantastic, she was brill about my son's allergies and made sure his food was cooked in the oven and not on the grill, and when the chicken issue arose she was quick to sort it and just absolutely lovely. Will we definitely be back soon, good food, pretty good prices and great service:)

Ariel was great, super happy and really helpful. Unfortunately the food wasn’t the best but Ariel sorted things really quickly! Thank you again Ariel !

Great hot food, lovely service from Ariel. Food came quickly considering how busy the place was.

Our waitress Summer was lovely and helpful. Perfect all round, definitely will be revisiting and highly recommend as food was spot on! Thanks Harvester 👍

it is very clean .all the team are very friendly and the food is very good

Love coming here with my grandad, penny and crystal were lovely and friendly. Will carry on coming back here

Ariel was the bomb.com - Extremely bubbly and kind. Would like to take her out on a date sometime maybe? pls give bro a bottle of wine for her good service 🫶🏼

had an absolutely amazing experience here this evening at the potters kiln, i came here for my good girl tea for being an amazingly cute small bean at work. unfortunately i got sacked so i wasn’t very happy but Ariel knew how to turn my frown upside down. had a super amazing charcoals chicken breast super moist and juicy just how i like it. will deffo be taking my new boyfriend here for my first date, hopefully he will love it hehe

The service at harvester was the tits, Ariel was the best ever. The food gave me a bit of gas but we move, it happens. Must come back to see Ariel again she is a babe xoxo kisses and hugs

Lovely food amazing staff lovely desserts, our waitress ( Summer ) was amazing, polite and funny, we’ll look for to returning 😊

Catherine, who was our waitress, was very attentive and friendly. Food was delicious and well presented. Had a query with wording on our bill, she enquired with management then gave us a clear explanation, all ok. Overall, a good time was had. Thank you.

The food was excellent and also the service was also excellent and the atmosphere was also excellent as well as all the staff who work here and also I would love to give a 💯 to Catherine for an excellent and welcome person at coming to ask if anything was ok so please give Catherine 💯 from us all

Lovely food, great atmosphere, staff very helpful and friendly

Food portion of Combo meal small

Food was cooked fresh and was lovely

Totally love this place, food and service is excellent, would recommend.

We have visited many times, the last few visits I must admit the food isn't as good as it used to be. There was a problem with one of our meals, which resulted in that person being unable to finish. Our server, Emily H was fantastic, we got a result we were happy with, which we didn't have to ask for. She was very attentive and friendly, genuinely seemed happy to help. Cannot fault Emily at all, her service was definitely 5 star, not only attending to us, but many other guests, seemed a bit run off her feet but still managed to see to everyone so well done! The food was ok but not exactly outstanding, the had run out of a lot of items. The chocolate brownie was disappointing, really dry and bitter. We would probably try somewhere else next time to celebrate a birthday

Nice food, friendly staff, can't say more than that

Didn't get in far to busy for us to wait

Absolutely lovely staff, was very warmly greated on arrival, had to wait 30 mins for a table which they turned around in 5 minutes, waitress was very nice and informed, and the food served really well...definitely the best of this chain I've eaten in.

The waitress got our order wrong. She wasn't that helpful or friendly. The food was good.

Quick pleasant and friendly service

Chips OK burger burnt and tasted burnt onion rings burnt and hard as nails chicken stack not as nice as it used to be. My point is burnt food should not have been put on the table in the first place, chicken stack was disappointing this time. Also no more early bird and more expensive now. Won’t be coming back even though we are local.

Decent quality, good price. Excellent service from Catherine.

Went in for dinner, was sat right next to the door which was constantly open so absolutely freezing. Urber delivery drivers all standing around us and manager getting extremely flustered. As for the food my husband had mixed grill which looked like it was thrown on plate and over cooked ( very dry) I had bbq rack ribs with a portion of onion rings, couldn't eat them as hard and burnt, the chips were cold and soggy. Not a good experience at all, waited 10 minutes for butter to be filled up for rolls and salad bar was a complete mess.

Absolutely lovely here, food lovely and fresh,the service was quick 😄, the salad bar was nice and cold for the food sitting in there.

This place or harvester does the best ribs anywhere ,good service here ,very clean ,always there to serve

Angela our waitress was brilliant, she could not do enough for us.

Lovely place, good friendly service and food was great 👍

Good, reasonably priced food - great value for money. Friendly staff, all very helpful and our server Jodie was excellent.

Chrissy served us all with our orders. We were very happy . The food and drinks were delicious 😋.

Good service especially our waitress Ariel kept us informed & constantly checked everything was ok

As regular customers of Harvester, the last few times we have been looked after by Angela, who is a fabulous waitress! She is so friendly, kind, funny and attentive, nothing is too much trouble. She offers her recommendations on new menu options, which is always helpful if you're torn between what to choose. The new menu was very good although it seems to have been reduced slightly, the food we did have was delicious! Great overall service, and we'll be back again soon and hopefully we get to see Angela again.

Great meals, booked a table for 5 for 7.45 the place was busy so had a little wait to be seated. Ariel our server was great vey bubbly and attentive. Food was well cooked and enjoyed by us all.

Our waitress, Ariel, was absolutely fantastic! Brilliant customer service. Very friendly and energetic. Lovely food :)

Our waitress Angela, well what can I say she is such a lovely and sweet woman. Nothing was too much for her she treated us with such respect and would happily come back just for her. The food WOW! We've been to our harvesters and the food is definitely the best here put of all of them. Chefs and Angela you have done this business proud!

Lovely food & great service from Chrissy!

Waiter served wrong drink but rectified quickly..One item of cutlery was dirty. Apart from these problems....OK.

One of our regular restaurants! The salad bar makes it extra special! Great food, good service, always busy. 👌

Booked and went for a meal with family (12 of us) for grandsons 16th Birthday celebration. Initially concerned as table for all of us was on main route through restaurant and one side was a bench seat for 6 making it uncomfortable. But after making waitress Sophie aware she then moved us to another not so crowded area. She then proceeded taking our orders then returning with our drinks. Considering the size of our order I was impressed when it all arrived at the same time hot and looking very appetising which it as returning to make sure everything was ok. Taking and delivered further drink orders as requested. She returned took our sweet order and delivered them. One however was not satisfactory so she deleted from the final bill. A very pleasant ands enjoyable evening.

The staff are all very friendly. A special mention to Crystal who really made us feel welcome and looked after. Very pleasant surroundings, friendly atmosphere, lovely food and plenty of parking.

Lovely food, very polite staff, clean & tidy.

We had a lovely waitress called Emma who was really personable. Thank you for your service

Lovely food and the atmosphere. ,Shane took our food order . Very friendly and polite. Good man

The food I got was the worst I've ever had for a meal out. This place has gone drastically down hill, What I wanted was not on the menu and the prices are abit steep for what u get. Recommended food is a chocolate fudge cake (I've never had it)

Emily H was lovely ,great service and nice family restaurant

We phoned up this afternoon to find out if we could just purchase the salad, we were told we could, we also asked if we could just turn up, but it wouldn't be until the evening, we were also told yes, just turn up. We arrived at 5.15 and was asked if we'd booked, so we explained the earlier phone conversation to a woman, she told us that there are no tables and should have booked but said we could wait 1 hr 30 minutes for a table. While we stood there, there were several tables unoccupied as well as tables outside. We most definitely will NOT be returning, the woman didn't even apologise, she couldn't care less

We were served by Luke who was an amazing waiter, he was very attentive, friendly and helpful! He is a credit to your business! Thanks Luke 😄

Much improved since my last visit years ago.

Lovely food and great service from Catherine helped explain dishes to my daughters, will definitely return

Luke who served us was amazing! Excellent communication skills, knew the menu, assisted us with out every need! Luke is a keeper !!!

Very quick service and good selection of food.

Great meal and service. Crystal was very friendly and couldn’t off asked for better service.

We visited on a busy Sunday evening, we booked as we were driving and was able to get a table at our preferred time. Great welcome and service throughout our stay, we were very well looked after by Ariel. Food was served quickly and was very good. Would definitely visit again next time we are in the area.

17 of us for breakfast and the food came out seconds apart. Not only was it delicious, the service was fantastic.

Lovely place eat in or outside if weather is good. Very clean and food great. Went Sunday evening salad bar needed to be topped up but otherwise was good.

Good, as always. Quickly seated, didn't have to wait long for our server to appear. food was excellent

Always have a great meal here, Angel the waitress is lovely and great balance of being attentive but left us to enjoy our meal

Good meal tonight, food was lovely, Chrissy served us and she was wonderful. 😊

Very disappointed. Didn't have my 1st choice, 2nd choice or 3rd from the menu. If I wasn't with company I'd have gone elsewhere. Usually it's ok there.. Not this time..

First time and very impressed with the wide selection of food available. The friendliness of the staff. And whats not to like with a free salad bar. Food was fabulous

Had lovely food and service was excellent every one was sweet and polite and made our visit enjoyable we go every year we are in yarmouth

Had a lovely family meal and was served by the lovely Ariel who couldn’t of been more helpful and cheery. Only downfall was the smell of the toilets nearby but didn’t take away from the amazing service we received it was nobody’s fault.

Food was good and came out quickly, the salad bar was well stocked and fresh. The service we received from Angela was also fantastic, she was very friendly and made our dining experience enjoyable for the whole family.

Great staff great food great value well done Arial made our visit so much better you were brilliant

Service with a smile from Angela!

Lush food!! Angela was great, so friendly and efficient! Couldn’t do more for us! Thanks!

Went again whilst on holiday ( Always do ) and after a few issues last time a few months back this time I cannot fault. Extremely busy, which was a good sign but they handled it amazingly well, from start to finish. Food was excellent, served the 6 of us all at the same time and wasn't rushed after ordering so had plenty of time for the well stocked salad cart. Cannot fault at all and will be back next month again.

Ariel was extremely bubbly and very polite, the service she gave us was very professional with a light hearted attitude and clearly loves her work the food tonight was excellent

Salad bar is always a favourite. Penny the waiting staff was fab, polite and we didn't feel rushed

Great place really friendly staff and great food

Excellent service, staff well informed on gluten free options. They can cook food separately if needed. The website has a tick box and then excludes food you need to avoid making it easier to look through the menus. They have food all day and a small overlap time when you can choose between brunch and lunch. Sat outside in the sun, nice deck surrounded by trees. You barely know its near a road. Good food, accesible access is from the side of the building as stairs from the car park. Good facilities, hot chocolate is good, fruit juice isgooda nd breakfast is great! I watched a wasp eat what it wanted then harvest a piece of steak. Appropriate for a Harvester restaurant. It certainly seemed to approve!

Lovely experience from having salad the food was on the table within 5 minutes of ordering very quiet & very nice place, staff lovely including summer who served us 5 stars 🌟

We’re currently on holiday and came for dinner one night here. We were looked after by Catherine who gave 5* service. She was so quick, even with how busy it was, and she was very friendly and welcoming, even chatting with my 2 year old daughter when she came over. The food was perfect and they even let us change our table to inside due to the weather change, despite being nearly full. Would highly recommend and would rave about the service from Catherine as well.

Over fired haddock, told server but wasn't really interested.

Burger let down! Burger very dense dry and tasteless.

So I’ve been here a handful of times never had a complaint the last time I’ve been on Sunday my food was overcooked to the point was rockhard😂 like the cheese was rock hard I get it was like covered in batter but the batter was so hard that you couldn’t even taste the cheese halloumi sticks I like we had seven of them on our plate and all of them will rock hard😂 halloumi cheese is my favourite that was kind of disappointing

Great food, staff were great. Thanks.

Went at a really busy time and the waiting staff was really great, friendly and attentive at a time they could be forgiven for getting a little stressed! (Especially with some of the customers nearby, who were clearly after a free meal, picking problems in everything)

Excellent ! Great service from all staff as soon as we arrived onwards, especially Chrissy our server, food was great, cooked perfect and presented well, restaurant was very busy (always a good sign), but was managed excellently, would highly recommend A+

Food was OK usual Havester food nothing new unfortunately, Salad bar liked like someone had picked it up and shaken it all together. But the service we received was great 👍

Very good service, food was excellent, very enjoyable evening

Had a lovely meal with the family. Our server, Luke, was attentive and made our meal enjoyable 😉

It was soo calm . Our waitress was soo happy and nice her name was Ariel .We will come back to enjoy a lonely meal

Delicious food and friendly stuff

Summer was our waitress today. She was friendly and helpful. The food was really tasty and we didn't have to wait long either even though was busy. All the staff were polite and helpful, even though it must be stressful. Kids enjoyed the refillable drinks, and 3 course kids menu. A lovely end to a lovely day at Pleasurewood hills, just a stone throw away 😀

Shown to a table. Served promptly. Salad bar good. Must say the bowls are a lot smaller. Still good. I had ribs sweet potato fries corn and a pot of coleslaw. Ribs were fine, sweet potato fries were dry with no flavour and corn was soggy. The coleslaw from the salad bar was better than the pot I received. Not impressed this time. Still will give it another go in the future as it has been good in the past.

I had booked for an earlier time but needed to change it, called and changed no problem. When we got there we was seated right away. The restaurant was packed! Our server Luke was amazing, he had so many tables to cover. He was fast and attentive. Even came to check if everything was alright when he saw another member of staff talking to us. (It was a kitchen issue not a problem). Only thing I would change about the place is the car park, they need more spaces or an attendant to check people's rubbish parking as quite a few people were taking up 2 spaces
