Have you been to a Harvester before?
Advantages: Value for money, friendly service, ok food Disadvantages: Annoying children everywhere, not much atmosphere, not very special
...have just been to a Harvester for the first time in years, my boyfriend and I have just moved house, to Bristol and there is a Harvester less than 2 miles away. We took his grandparents and his mum. Harvester is your standard family pub/restaurant chain-nothing fancy but known as being good value for money and for offering standard British food. Apparently they have 160 outlets and the first pub opened in 1983. I would say that they are a bit like ... ...'have you been to a Harvester before?' First Impressions: We pulled into the large car pack in front of the Harvester, the pub is also well signposted. What I found interesting was that the building had been made in the style of an old mill, Harvester's seem to do this quite a lot in an attempt to appear more like an old, authentic pub. There is a small garden with benches for the summer to sit outside on (it was cold and rainy on our visit) and ...

KFC - Finger looking good, or is it?
Advantages: Good price, nice chicken. Disadvantages: Chips are normally nasty, long queues, dirty tables to sit on.
...Another speciality of KFC is the bargain bucket and this is normally around £10 for which you will receive 8 pieces of chicken (cuts may vary), 4 chips and normally two side orders. There are different variations of the bucket meals and you might also get boneless chicken, popcorn chicken, mini fillet burgers, bottles of drink or even desserts such as vienetta and ice cream etc. You can sit down or take away your food to eat wherever you feel like ... ...the area. Overall KFC is a little hit & miss, the chicken is great, the chips aren't. I've never experienced any problems with the sides apart from beans being cold but these can always be reheated in the microwave if they are really bad. I am rating KFC 3/5 as the price is good, the chicken is but other factors such as cleanliness of the restaurant and how long I have to wait to order have dropped this down from what would have been a 5/5 rating. ...

I'm lovin it...
Advantages: ... Disadvantages: ...
Help me, I have an addiction. About six months ago I was just a normal teenage girl and the mere thought of eating a Mcdonalds disgusted me. Now I'm hooked... and I'm so ahamed. They say the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, so here I am, I have a problem. I'm not going to be able to tell you anything you haven't heard before. We all know McDonalds is one of the most well known franchises and you can find a Maccie D's anywhere. ... ...of the universe where nothing but Amoeba's live there'd be the shiny golden arches in the distance. We all love food, who doesn't? and when it's fast, even better. The number of times I've visited the driveway in the past few months would horrify any healthy dooyooers. After just checking my online bank statement I can see I've had two mcdonalds... and thats just this week. Oh please help me cure my addiction. I would choose a medium double cheeseburger ...

Pizza Hut DELIVERY - Appaling , disrespectful Service
Advantages: Offers Disadvantages: Order and delivery staff have no manners, nor respect for customers
...outrage, 5 minutes later, the Pizza Hut phoned me to say that they had realized my order was for collection, not delivery. I argued I had placed the order for delivery (but as I had already closed down my laptop and it was my first online order with Pizza Hut) I was not sure. The Pizza Hut employee insisted adamantly, that I had placed my order for collection, and he cheekily repeated and explained that if it said TO COLLECT, then it was for Collection, ... ...7.99, and he repeated that amount, so as to make me feel cheap for having ordered an offer. Well, I was surprised and upset, and although I suspected it was kind of a nasty joke, I could not be bothered to escalate the issue, and I was hungry, so I said that I was sorry if I had made a mistake in my order, but that please I needed it delivered. So after my pleading, he conceded that for this time he was going to deliver it, but not next time. I guess ...

Long wait to be seated felt rushed but great food
Advantages: good food, good value Disadvantages: could be a long wait to be seated
...had an evening meal at Frankie and Bennies when I arrived I was told it would be half an hour wait to be seated to we took a buzzer which they would buzz when the table was ready and took a seat in the bar. The bar was very busy and there was nowhere to sit so we got a drink and stood and waited. 35 minutes later the buzzer went and we were seated the staff took our drinks order straight away and came back a minute later to see if we were ready to ... ...pop back in a few minutes which they did and took our order. I ordered garlic bread for starters and a pepperoni pizza. The lady was rushing who was serving us. The garlic bread arrived which was slightly burnt however we didn't say anything then they came with the main course which was lovely. As soon as we had finished they came over took the plates away and gave us our bill. We felt very rushed and although this was a busy time for them wanted ...
