Harvester Pub & Grill

We have two Harvester restaurants within a ten mile radius of my home, both of which I eat in far too frequently! This review is mainly about The Cooper Dean restaurant. I have compared with one in Christchurch, Dorset. The Harvester chain is owned by Mitchells and Butlers. They also own Holiday Inns, Flares and other chain restaurants / pubs.

Havester Pub and Grill. I recently ate at Harvester in Exeter with My Dad and my 8 year old daughter. We got there around 6.30 and there were plenty of people already there but still plenty of spare tables. We were greeted almost instantly by a waitress who led us to a table, I will point out that we hadn't booked a table, as we were show to our table we are taken past spit roasting chickens, and an inviting salad counter.
