Can only say I have to agree with the last reviewer.
Given the potential of such a fantastic riverside setting, what a real shame. The place is a damn mess, and it has filtered this 'feel' into a lot (not all) of the staff.
At the bar it seems you need to be a local, or personally known to whoever deems to notice you. All in all quite an odd place!

I love Harvesters - but not this one. Salad Cart food warm and tainted strong tasting potatoes and coleslaw.
Missus very disappointed. Chicken meal and veg were cooked to within an inch of their life. Chicken cooked so much was bone dry and fell off bone, corn and chips soggy/luke warm. Chose a busy time, staff didn't seem happy - will not return - just stick to my favourite Harvester where consistent service and food standards prevail. I thought that was consistent across the chain !! wrong......

Having read the bad reports about this pub and seeing that the last review was in April 08 I thought i'd write an updated version. I've used this pub on many occasions over the last year and have found the food to be very good on every occasion, the service also very good. The bar has sometimes been slow but only when busy so its to be expected, well done all concerned.

What a pity this establishment seems to be going down-hill so soon after the refurb. The Bar area is already looking grubby and unkempt. Popped in for Lunch - the Salad cart is always good, and opted for the spit-roast chicken with the salad cart to eat in the virtually empty bar. Only one member of staff on the bar, and even though it was not busy, we still had to wait for a while to be served. After checking, we were informed that there were no chickens and this on a Saturday before the start of a possibly busy weekend! So we left. For somewhere with such a prime site and wonderful outside seating area overlooking the river, it's a shame. Notice on the bar recruiting for staff - not surprised.
