Harvester has come under fire for requiring customers to queue at its famous all you can eat salad bar.
The restaurant chain has more than 230 branches across the country and serves a broad menu including grilled meat, chips, salads and more.
One of Harvester fans' favourite perks of the restaurant was that if they ordered a meal they could help themselves to several different salads.
But since the Covid-19 pandemic customers have had to queue to be served by staff.
Harvester fans took to social media recently to pipe up about the change. One said: "I'm boycotting Harvester until I can serve my own salad.
"Far too much for my anxiety having to ask someone to do it for me!"
Another said: "I miss the days when you could serve yourself at a Harvester salad cart. Now I'm shamed into only having a quarter of the penne pasta and potato salad that I'd have previously gone for."
A Harvester spokesperson said: "We're currently researching how to give our guests the best version of the unlimited salad bar in 2022 and beyond.
"We're looking at consumer feedback and hope to update Harvester's salad bar fans with any changes in the coming weeks."
Yesterday, The Mirror reported that households will see their yearly food shopping bills hiked by £380 this year due to the soaring price of groceries.
Figures from analysts Kantar show that grocery price inflation jumped to 8.3% over the four weeks to June 12.
That is an increase on 7% in May, and the highest level since April 2009.
The rising cost of food and groceries means the average yearly shopping bill will increase by £380 in 2022 – more than another £100 since April alone.
Shoppers are increasingly swapping branded items for cheaper own-label products as they look to manage their budgets, according to the research.
Sales of branded products fell by 1% in the 12 weeks to June 12, while own-label sales rose by 2.9% and value own-label lines surged by 12%.
Grocery analysts this month warned that supermarket costs could rise by 15% this summer and leave shoppers skipping meals.
The Institute of Grocery Distribution (IGD) said households are set to pay more for essentials including dairy, bread and meat as inflation is predicted to hit 11%.
It means the typical family of four could see their shopping bill rise as much as £40 per month, it warned.
