What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Harvester Sovereign Harbour offers a mixed dining experience. While many praise the location and the unlimited breakfast, some reviews highlight issues with food quality and service, particularly concerning understaffing and slow preparation times. The ambiance and presentation can be appealing, but consistency appears to be a concern for some patrons. It's a place that can be great for a casual meal, but manage expectations regarding service speed during busy periods.
"O really love their breakfast.
I had the vegan option, and it’s really good. Within a week i visited two times because of taste and quality.
Highly recommended"

"NEVER AGAIN!
So we was looking forward to the newer refurbed venue & new menu from Harvester at the Habour in Eastbourne.
Arrived at 4.15pm and didn't get any food until 5.45pm. When we did get the food is was absolutely appalling!!!! OH steak was dry and overcooked,chips dry coleslaw dry! This was replaced with a chicken dish but still very poor!!
Being vege I had to choose a starter and 2 sides as the vege main options were poor. £6.99 for 2 tiny tacos which had 3 tiny pieces of some type of plant based chicken called "Garden Gourmet" it was thee worst vege thing I have ever seen eating out. I was not edible! The side mac n cheese was a tiny portion too and been microwaved.
The staff serving were not attentive and need more training in hospitality and how to look after customers.
The manageress admitted that our waitress went home and the one taken over was on a break and our food was left on the side.
This is totally unacceptable 😤
The ladies toilets were disgusting also and clearly not being checked.
We will not be returning! Harvesters are franchised so sort it out owners before you have no customers!!"

"I don’t normally leave many reviews unless something is very good or very bad.
In this case it was very bad. The recent changeover of the new menu is quite poor. It’s mostly chips and meat now.
The food that we were served was abysmal :( things forgotten, things not cooked correctly, pink chicken meat, poor accommodation to when seating a disabled man with limited walking abilities.
Re: the photo added, where’s the “kebab” the pepper squares are smaller than my thumb nail 😂 2/4 chicken not cooked right. Missing the coleslaw side. Pitta rock solid.
The salad bar I look forward to but that also wasn’t great anymore with limited options and poorly tasting to usual.
The harvester has gone down hill deeply. It’s a shame as we came a lot for Sunday lunch.
Won’t be coming again."
