Harvester (restaurant)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Harvester Restaurants is a family-pub restaurant chain with more than 160 outlets in the United Kingdom. The chain specialises in flame-grilled food and help-yourself salad carts.

Harvester was acquired from Trust House Forte by Bass Retail Leisure, which owns more than 2,000 public houses and entertainment establishments. Bass Retail Leisure was later re-branded as Six Continents Retail in 2001, before splitting into two separate companies (one devoted to the Hotel Division) and the other, Mitchells & Butlers in 2002 which contained all the bars and restaurants.

The first Harvester was the George Morden, which opened in 1983, in Surrey.

The brand has recently grown far larger after the purchase of a large number of Brewers Fayres and Beefeaters from Whitbread.
