What Racingmacat likes about Harvester Express:
I frequently stop for breakfast at the Harvester Donington Park. For me, it’s the best motorway service station on the M1. The staff are always welcoming friendly the poached eggs on toast coffee make a very good start to my day. View all feedback. What TeamWard doesn't like about Harvester Express:
Not just about the Harvester but the service station as a whole, what a poor place to visit, the toilets looked like some had cleaned their football boots in them all, the place was disorganised, only good for 2 hours free parking to then pick family up from East Midlands. View all feedback.

The restaurant staff were all wearing dirty uniforms. Our server had a tea towel hanging from their belt that looked too dirty to even wipe a dog's feet with.
