In Media City for a few days and visited Harvester. We loved the food, the staff especially Lucy who took the time to chat to us. She was friendly and made our visit very welcoming. Hope to visit again.

Always eat here when going to a show at The Lowry or even shopping sometimes. Food is well presented and perfectly cooked. Service has always been good but tonight’s server - Charlie - was excellent and went above and beyond and helped make our evening something special. Thank you Charlie 🙏🥰

The service was not good. I repeatedly asked for something I could not have yet was given it with my meal. There were options and deals advertised that weren’t there (and I’m talking about half the menu). I wasn’t given a salad bowl yet I could have it. The menu was really confusing to see what was what (I.e. difference between a starter and full meal).
