"This experience was an absolute disaster. We joined a queue at the door which wasn't moving which we thought ridiculous as we were on time for our reservation. We asked those in front of us if they had reservations, they did not were waiting for a table. We were then seated placed our order. The drinks starters arrived promptly but having ordered a bottle of white wine I requested a wine cooler. I was brought a plastic jug of ice as they didn't have a proper cooler. After our starters we waited, waited, the tables around us started to empty so I asked our server what was the delay in our main course being served. She went away returned to say that the expected delay between starter main course was 30 minutes that we had been waiting 25 minutes. The main couse was not yet ready. The main course arrived all 3 meals were barely tepid on cold plates. Within a minute we all decided this was unacceptable called the server to complain requested the manager. An assistant manager came to the table. He basically had no excuse, offered his apologies agreed that we would not have to pay the bill. This had no impact on our disappointment as we had only eaten our starters had now lost our appetites. I would also like to comment that my main course choice was Whole Tail Scampi. I am in my 60s from Essex where scampi has been landed sold for generations. The food served did not resemble any scampi that I have ever eaten. Some of the pieces had visible dark grey fish skin which scampi does not have. In my opinion this was processed fish, probably Monkfish, processed coated to resemble scampi. What the term Wholetail is supposed to mean I have no idea but there were certainly no tails evident in my portion of this food. Altogether a terrible evening caused by the inadequacy of the staff to ensure quality service."

"I have to say the worst experience in a pub I never ever complain but at £20 almost a roast dinner the quality is low , I have been in the hospitality industry for more 20 years running some of capitals best restaurant as a chef , restaurant owner and consultant , this dinner cost was less than £3 to produce , I had a carrot whole which was under cooked and almost raw , instant gravy , and meat that was so bad that a frozen roast dinner quality was better. I don’t understand why cabbage is on a roast. After consulting on successful pubs myself the service was terrible, was seated with my family at 6.30pm, no one came for half an hour , the dining room was only 10 tables , was watching the three young girls around the EPOS station , playing with there mobiles for half an hour until we were spotted. I would say the roast I had today quality would be ok if I paid £10 but the truth of the matter is if your going to sell food at a higher price the quality needs to be there, meaning more roast vegetables, green vegetables , proper meat jus and good slice of pink beef and great Yorkshire pudding and great service too. I went to this pub before COVID it was pricy but the quality of the meal was there , seems covid has destroyed the hospitality industry, at no point should a waiter be rude to a customer this was the case on my visit to this pub, and just to note I didn’t. Ask for a refund I paid the full price of this shocking meal and service as you can see it’s over £100 for something that should be a fraction, as a person who know what they are talking about I would never return to this establishment not because of the food but the rude service people who took no responsibility for there actions."

"this is probably the most comprehensive feedback they will read. I had a demand for scampi today and I thought of the Harvester chain where I dimmed over 3 years ago. I visited my friend in kent and when we were in the place, he proposed this special facility. when we arrived at 13:45 a.m., the parking lot was nice and empty, so we were spoiled for the choice of the parking lot. we parked and entered the restaurant. we were great by a charming lady who walked past us the salatbar past our sitting area. On the way we went past a row of steps up, with dramatic sunlight came through. I commented on it and she said she had worked there for 20 years and she had never had a comment on the stairs before, she will undoubtedly see it in another light forward. we sat on a beautiful table, although the room behind me, due to a wall that was there, was a bit cramped while we sat on the chair. also the very large cloby at the tab;e limited where I could place my legs, that was a little unpleasant. we quickly looked through the menu and selected 2 courses as well as hot drinks we caught the eye of a server and ordered our meal. my latte and my friends green tea was served first. the taste of the latte was beautiful, but the glass was something on the small size. we then went to the salatable to help us how it was the use at the harvester. a little very romantic followed. 2 server appeared, one went with my friend and the other with me. She took a bowl and went along the salatable and asked me what I wanted, and then put it in a bowl, all with a thousand island dressing and crispy wobble. she offered me a choice of rolling, but not asking if I wanted margarine or butter, I was served margarine. then she put a quarter plate under my salad bowl and I went on our table. I wore a bottle of the NAGA sauce, for those among you who like a kick to eat her. the salat station was very short sweet calibre and lacked in variety. Previously there was a much larger selection of objects when I visited a harverter like red kidney beans, jalapenos and red wobbles. maybe a sign of time. the salat was tasty and we both enjoyed it, but all my favorite potato salad I had the most. Fortunately, I left everything because the kartoffels were too hard and not coked, photo attached. the main course arrived, really nice on a rectangular plate with the chips, plucked, and the wetar sauce dressed in separate, that is always a good thing to see. I pressed the lemon on a sampi when I ate it. this man contains the cripple. the sampi was super, without unpleasant odor and the taste perfect, brought me back. it was cooked to perfection. the chips were also nice. I enjoyed them both, the only one let themselves be inherited, they were heavy and partly boiled, so I did not consume them. my friend took it from me, he eats everything. the server has cleared our records and brought our gloomy, the sundae best. I had asked the server to be generous with the chocolate dress and she was. the sun came in a high glass, full to the saum, up the iron cone, reminds of a hat. the ice cream was very smooth and the soaked tasty, my friend said when he expected something, as it was a sunshade, I am glad that we did not order 3 courses, as it would have been too much, we have made the right choice. the server took the payment at the table including the tip that was beautiful. when we got out I could get a photo of the staircase with the dramatic sunlight from the top right corner of the window, very artistic. that was a very pleasant trip, and we really enjoyed the experience. Thank you, ladys. Please contact the themes I have addressed. they then get the missing 5th star."
