A horrendous experience. I'll overlook the extortionate prices and…read moretalk about the service and food instead. I decided that a chicken burger was the way forward, so up to the counter I trot. Now, I am all for diversity but it would be great if the lady taking the order had some sort of English. The burgers all come with stuff on them. Do I asked for plain with a slice of cheese. She charged me for a Satay burger. I pointed this out and she looked at me like I was stupid. Having asked for a slice of cheese instead of Mayo, relish and salad, you would think it would be simple. I was charged an extra 1.65 even though I wanted less. I complained and was met by incredulity. I persisted and she slapped a pound coin on the counter to shut me up. When the food did come, the chicken was coated in breadcrumbs that were dripping fat. Honestly the chicken had a "Tesco Value" quality. I would never set foot in this place again :-(

It could very well be the worst burger I had in my intire life. One of our burgers was even still raw on the inside! The milkshake also tasted like icecream that stood in the sun for too long. Overal, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone and I'm never going back to this place ever again.

I'm a big harvester fan and i have eaten in many different harvesters. This harvester seems to be…read moreunder staffed with often long waits because they can not operate to full capacity because of low numbers of staff. Staff seem to be less professional than some of the other harvesters i have been to. I have not had a problem with their food, apart from the odd harvester burger now known as Cheese burger is often over flame grilled and simply tastes of burnt ashes. I have been 4 times now and on two of those occasions it taken over 30 minutes to even be asked for drinks or to order. it's not difficult to simply employ staff harvester has good customer demand. other than that it has a nice log fire, although in winter months is still unbearably cold due to no double glazing.

You would think that McDonalds food is the ame all over, however, the food I received on my last…read morevisit to McDonalds at lakeside left a lot to be desired. Firstly the queue was very long & it took ages to get served even though there appeared to be plenty of staff standing around doing nothing. When we finally got the food and found a (dirty) table to sit at, I found something strange in my big mac. Some kind of foreign object which has never been identified. When this was raised witht eh staff, I got the impression they did not believe me, they did not apologise but just handed me a voucher for a free meal on my next visit. The icing on the cake came wehn I tried to redeem the voucher in the same restaurant on my next visit. I ws told it was unacceptable as it had not been stamped by the restaurant at the time of issue!

I had one of their meal deals, for £5.95 I got two spoonfuls of curry (you can have 2 different types, I went for a Vindaloo and a chicken tikka) rice, a naan bread, a drink and a vegetable samosa. The drink was a bit small (the size of a small drink at KFC or McDonalds) but other than that I have to say I was quite impressed, Two quite generous spoonfuls of curry that must have had half a dozen or so pieces of chicken in each one, a load of rice and the naan bread is full size not one of those little mini ones. The curries were really tasty, the vindaloo was quite hot but not as hot as one from an Indian restaraunt, the tikka was delicious to the point the my OH was gutted she had got a Burger king instead of a curry and kept dunking her chips in my curry, the cheeky moo! There is a selection of about a dozen different curries on offer going from mild korma through madras, jalfrezi and up to vindaloo (although I didnt think the vindaloo was THAT hot) they also have samosas and extras you can buy, they also sell doner kebabs and rolls So all in all, I would recommend trying it if you are after something different to the normal KFC/Burger King etc. I will probably have one next time I go to lakeside as I dont think the KFC there is very good (and thats what I usually have) They had smaller basic curry + rice meals starting from £2.50 so you neednt spend a fortune to try it.

The staff here always seem to be helpful and I enjoy eating here. The food can seem expensive (£16 for 2 x burgers, 2 x chips & 2 x drinks) Compared with £8 / £9 for 2 big Mac meals or similar

But the catch is that you have to clear your plate before you can order more. Hot drinks is also bottomless. I don't think there is any place which does this, especially at the price and in East London, never mind a shopping centre. The full American hit the spot, and for desert, haha remembering this is just brunch, triple pancakes with blueberry and cinnamon. Big eater yes, but I also enjoy good food, which eds diner delivered. The service was brilliant, all round helpfulness and smiles, and importantly it did not feel pretentious. Sometimes I feel London has become one. Long queues and hipster vibe with small portions and over pricing sometimes for the same -ish food Here not so much, feels like a normal resturant, but Value for money for sure. Coming back for sure.
