| You would think a Harvester, by definition, would do a good steak or mixed grill. Not so. I had a mixed grill that was so overcooked (in fact burnt) that the meat could not be cut, even with a steak knife. I picked up some of the meat and tapped it against my plate to see how hard and unpliable it was. Let's just say I feared for the plate. When asked to change the dish, the staff were very unhappy and the plate came back with the same chips and veg on, all dried up and inedible. They did not even plate me up a fresh lot of chips and veg. My husband's steak was cremated even though he'd asked for rare. The chips were those style that are full of promise, but when you bite in, you find they are full of fresh air. All in all, very poor food and unhelpful staff. I don't know how they are still trading, unless their custom consists mostly of parents who are too nervous to take their children into a decent pub/restaurant. Won't be going back.

| Good food, ok drinks, good prices if you get the early bird, does what it says on the tin, good if you've got children. jojo85 - 4 Feb 2009 10:22 |
