The food was a lovely surprise. My pasta came out steaming hot, just how I like it. The menu had some really thoughtful options. Staff were polite and checked in without hovering.

Lavinia was so helpful and got us a discount. Pizza was huge, perfect for a quick lunch.

Booked online, so no wait. Food came out fast and was properly hot. The car park is a lifesaver. Just a solid, no-fuss meal.

Been back a few times, the Suffolk Pork trio never disappoints. The homemade pies are spot on, too. Staff are always on it, noticed my water glass was topped up without asking. A solid local spot.

Ella was so friendly and attentive, really made the evening easy. The pizzas were spot on. She&rsquo;s definitely a keeper for this place.

Been coming here for years, and the food&#39;s always spot on. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. The consistency is rare these days. Had the steak frites again last night, cooked just right as always.

A reliable spot for a nice meal out. The food is always well-presented and tasty. What really makes it for me is the comfortable seating &ndash; you can settle in for a while without feeling rushed. A good, straightforward experience.

Lovely spot for a catch-up after a riverside stroll! Went for the set lunch, which was super tasty and such good value. The staff were so friendly, really made it feel like a proper treat. Great wine list too.

Loved the creative menu. The scallop starter was a real surprise, and they paced the courses just right.

Bruna was lovely. That Biscoff cheesecake though... it&#39;s the reason you come here. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet. Just a really great slice of cake.

The seafood platter was spot on &ndash; the scallops were perfectly seared. Sitting right on the seafront was lovely, though a bit breezy.

The lighting was just right, soft and warm. It felt so calm in here, like a little escape. Staff were really polite too. I&rsquo;d definitely come back.

Afternoon tea for a business catch-up. Darren was attentive, service was prompt. The selection was good, though the scones were a bit dry. Convenient location for a meeting.

Loved the vibe here! Perfect for catching up with friends. The food is really good and didn&#39;t break the bank. Our server was so nice. Upstairs seating is a bit dated, but we still had a great time.

Decent spot for authentic food. The chicken feet were a bit bland, but everything else was pretty good.

We enjoyed a wonderful birthday meal at the Harvester in Stanway, Colchester, Essex. The effort and willingness expressed by out waitress (Laura) was worthy of high praise. This employee worked tirelessly in make the evening a huge success.Thank you,Bill

As with any Buffett type restaurant there are good and bad things. But that said you know what you&rsquo;re signing up for when you go there. So queuing for your dinner is a given. The staff were lovely, food hot and plentiful and had a money off coupon too plus earned Yums - all in all a good night.

Ordered the butter chicken and garlic naan for the first time. The delivery was super quick, still steaming hot. Poppadoms weren&#39;t free like some other spots, but that&#39;s fine. The chicken was really flavourful.

Been coming here for years. The service is always spot on - they know the menu inside out and you can tell they actually care about what they&#39;re serving. It&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Lovely to sit in the garden on a sunny day. The inside is always lively but well-managed, which makes for a relaxed meal. The staff were very friendly and attentive.

Portions were generous for the price. The steak was cooked just right, and the sides were fresh. Good value for money.

Love the split-level layout here. Upstairs deck has these great views of the pier and water, perfect for a relaxed meal. Downstairs feels more intimate. It&#39;s a clever use of the space.

The lamb kebab was tasty, but the portion felt a bit small for the price. I was still a little hungry afterwards. The vegetarian moussaka my friend had looked more generous.

Popped in for a quick bite. The chicken korma was spot on, really flavourful and the portion was huge for the price. Staff were nice and chatty too.
