Harvester Sarn Park Bridgend

Got given £10 off my birthday meal . Server ( Martha )was very polite and clean & happy ,bread wad different which was nice to be fair .Grill chef Christie cooked my steak perfectly 😋 smashed the whole lot amazing birthday meal 😋 🙌

Waited 30 minutes to be seated. Another 30 minutes to take our order. My wife and I both ordered from the lunch menu and had 2 courses. We wasn't given a dish for the salad bar so fetched our own from the counter. Hardly any salad at the salad bar and had to ask for lettuce and onions. When our food eventually arrived after about another 20 minutes the chicken was over cooked and quite dry. After the main course we waited another 20 minutes before I caught the attention of a member of staff and asked for our puddings which to be fair only took about 5 minutes to arrive, but when we finished we couldn't see anyone to ask for the bill, we could have walked out at any time and no-one would have noticed. We eventually went to the bar to pay. I paid £30 and told them to keep the change because I couldn't be bothered to wait for the change. All together we spent about 3 hours on this place for a 2 course lunch, never again.

It wouldn't have been my choice to go, but I was an invited party. However, there were plenty of tables for a walk in and the staff were friendly and welcoming. A pint to start. A peroni and a pale ale £11.50 (I nearly fell over!) The salad bar at a Harvester is always good to be fair, and I had a small dish, my companions filled theirs. We all started with DEEP fried breaded mushrooms with garlic dip (really nice) For my main I chose chilli non carne (vegetarian) I had 2 forkfulls and left it (wrong choice) Denise had chicken stack (she left the majority said it was dry) and Liz had roast half chicken (cleared her plate) all generously portioned Dessert Liz had vegetarian icecream with strawberry sauce. Both Denise and I had the Rocky horror browny sundaes (far too much browny) again generously portion There was difficulty in splitting our bill, because we all wanted to pay separately. Cheaply priced at under £20 a head for 3 courses. There was a steady flow of customers to be fair

Friendly welcome. Good food. It took a long time for the food to appear although the place wasn't that busy.

Second visit to a harvester within a week! This time for lunch after a visit to McArthurGlen. The lunch was nice with lots to offer on a lunch menu. We had the two course set menu and opted for the scampi which was lovely. Overall a good lunch and we had a good time. Staff was nice and services was great. Will definitely visit again if I’m back in the area. Recommended
