Ate here twice on our short break. First time they fitted us in for lunch without a booking. (Thank you) which was very nice as they were really busy. Second time we booked. Lovely atmosphere. Staff really friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and cooked to perfection. Prices are very reasonable. Definitely would go back again.
Nice meal yesterday, good-sized portions. I had the dirty bird combo, very tasty. There is plenty of choice on the menu. We arrived early for our booking and were seated in a few minutes. Refillable drinks are available. Always full before getting to desert.
We came here to try the lunch menu and weren’t disappointed. Great tasting food and great value .
Our waitress , called Vicky I think was attentive and friendly .
We will defiantly be coming back
Booked last minute, we went and wasn’t expecting much, just the normal generic pub chain food. How surprised were we, food was excellent, good portions and served lovely and hot. Service was great and waitress checked several times if we were ok and required anything else.
Definitely somewhere we will go again.
The Running Horse in Maidstone is a long established Harvester restaurant. Large dining area which has been refitted not so long ago. We love the salad cart which is unlimited and has loads of toppings,sauces and various bread rolls.
One of us had a chicken burger and the other a flatbread filled with Cajun rubbed chicken, both came with fries
Our food was hot and came out in good time. Our waitress was friendly and has been on the staff for years so knows her job very well.
Our meals with soft drinks came to less than £25. There was a lunchtime menu on offer to buy it's limited.
Sadly the famous Early Bird 🐦 offer is no more.
There is access for mobility impaired. A few parking spaces out front and the main parking area across a busy road so care is needed.
There is a garden with tables but it was raining hard so I didn't get a really good look.
Big portion and delicious food. We went to there 2 families. I loved atmosphere, decoration and family friendly service. My son 1.5 years old, had run all dining time. Everyone had very understanding for us. Everywhere was clean. I can remember there
Had a Meerkat meal evening. Everything was nice,food, staff atmosphere etc. Only one little gripe was they only had 1 beer on offer but 11 lagers. But on the while we couldn't moan with 25% off the bill with Meerkat meals.
Food was great, good portion sizes and something for everyone.
Didn't catch her name but our waitress was lovely, really friendly. We were two tables of 6 and all ate at the same time.
They didn't have ribs but had signs up at the door to tell you this which I thought was good, I hate when you order and that's when they tell you they don't have something and you feel pressure to pick something else quickly.
As usual the service was 1st class, the food good and well presented but not happy about being presented with a gratuity screen on bill payment giving no option other than what amount are you paying. We choose to give a cash gratuity based on the service we receive. This maybe zero, rarely at the Running Horse, but an option none the less. Be forced to give a gratuity is NOT on.
Just visited Harvester and we've got to give a big shout out to Lesley! (Think that's the lovely lady's name) What a hard working amazing lady whilst the other staff just sat behind the bar talking. She literally ran around doing everything including drinks whilst the blonde foreign lady behind the bar did a few drinks and then sat on her phone for over an hour whilst we was in there. I don't know who this girl is but hopefully not a manager. She could learn a lot from Lesley.
