Toby Recensioni 196

We visit the Toby Carvery at Clacton every Sunday and everyone there is great. The building itself is lovely ….. please please don’t close it for ‘modernisation’ as it would ruin it and take the character right out of it. There are several rooms with big open spaces for large groups of friends/family to meet and enjoy a get-together and also intimate corners with tables just for two. The staff are always friendly and welcoming: the servers behind the food counter, the staff who fix the drinks and the lovely workers who come to the tables to take the orders. We’ve got to know Andrew, Michelle, Sara and Tina; they all look after us and greet us like friends. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The boss always greets us with a big smile as she is lovely too and always finds time to say hello despite it being such a busy restaurant and having to be constantly on the go juggling fitting in everyone who has booked a meal plus lots of walk-ins wherever possible. It’s a very popular place. As for the Carvery food, it’s always great and I’ve never ever had cause to complain about anything. We love coming here although we don’t live in or near Clacton.

I and my friend had a great visit to the Toby Bowshaw carvery in Dronfield. Claire made it a standout experience with her friendly manner and willingness to cook fresh scrambled eggs as an alternative to the fried eggs on offer. It was our first breakfast visit and a big surprise and pleasure for us both as the cost for great food and drink was little more than the cost of the coffees we’d have bought at the posh coffee shop we normally go to, it was a happy accident we arrived at the Bowshaw. For me the coffee was not so great but you have to take into account what you are paying so it was ok for Lavazza in a jug. The two duty managers were very vigilant and never stopped checking that all was well and cleaning everything that stood still.

Been here a few times and I’ve had the worst experience and the best experience but went there today and they have done well. Busy, fresh food and a happy lot of work staff. Even the lady with the blue hair, my daughter loved it 😂

Went to Toby carvery wonton Northampton today carvery very poor flat Yorkshire puddings looked liked pancakes roast potatoes looked burnt swimming in oil food Luke warm had to ask for it to be heated in micro even the cola didn’t ltaste good we have been three times won’t be going again

We attended Wolviston, Teesside. The service was excellent and Kerry was our waitress. She did a brilliant job with real enthusiasm and commitment. The team worked together well. The food was good too. David Shiels

An ok experience sunday carvery & nice staff. BUT.. the manager needs to look up above eye level. The lamp shades above the tables were thick with caked on dust, grease and cobwebs. Really unsanitary & to have this above a food service area is disturbing.

Toby Carvery Caerphilly don't use fresh meat. Whatever is left over from the previous day, they reheat it.

Brilliant service, great quality food the whole family were happy carvery offers choice for everyone even fussy children definitely be returning

Visited yesterday and had a delicious carvery and was served by a very lovely waitress, Ellie. The place was very busy and we would definitely visit again

So what part of Scottish currency don't you like. It is legal tender in the whole of the UK....but apparently not in the Toby restaurant in Streetly, Birmingham. I would suggest that this could be construed as racist!!

Based on the the local Toby Carvery restaurant managers integrity.
Thank you Jen.

Let down, first by Just eat and then by Ubereats. This lady behave in a first class manner, bringing back the quality of service that so often seems extinct.

Delicious food and excellent service at the Aberdeen Toby carvery! Had a salmon dish with peppers and onions, along with vegetables from the carvery - very tasty! Staff friendly and helpful. Will definitely return!

well they send out a 50% off mains voucher , which i suppose is good for me as my regular toby is just over a mile away. Great i will book a table for today . Went there WAITED 20 ODD mins IN FOOD QUEUE THAT WAS NEARLY OUT THE FRONT DOOR ate the meal which wasnt as good as it usually is BUT i am thinking HALF PRICE so dont expect to much. Asked for bill BUT which wasnt recognizing the voucher code , so sadly had to pay full price . IT TURNS OUT AT THE VERY bottom of the overly long terms /conditions voucher on my emails this deal is for ALL THE TOBYS IN UK in tiny writing except just four venues the 1 being our local ( NO its not a posh area) and three others (that i thought i knew most british towns) had never heard of. I felt i had been in a way cheated by the offer , what makes the 4 any diffrent to the food OF ALL THE OTHERS , JUST LIKE ANY OTHER CHAIN COMPANY , just sayin .

We booked a table tonight at 8pm for 8 people at Southend on sea in Essex. We arrived and there was no meat left, my husband complained to the manager Graham, he was unhelpful and seemed like he didn’t care at all… we left the restaurant without having our family meal. Very disappointed with the service

I went to my local Toby carvery at Washington, Tyne and Wear with my son for breakfast carvery on Monday morning.
I was left quite disappointed to be honest. Staff weren’t very helpful and seemed like they didn’t really want to be there.
Onto the breakfast itself they had no fried eggs just scrambled and all the other breakfast items was quite cold and seemed to me like they had been out for some time.
Also I had to go through 10 plates in the clean pile that were dirty till I found one that was half clean to use, when I mentioned this to a member of staff they just picked up the plates and didn’t say a word. Over all very disappointed at my recent experience, I wouldn’t mind but I and a lot of my family and friends have been to this Toby over the years and I feel we have been valuable customers over the years, not sure we will be back to be honest.

It is a shame having to leave my review< no body needs bad reviews at a time like this. We visted a toby inn for lunch, special occasion. We booked got there 15 minutes early, and were told to wait outside, it was cold and my partner having spent months in hospital 3 years ago to the date, I was told by ICU they expected her to die within the hour 2 months after her admission, due to covid she is still so ill today, this was the first time she had been able to go out since her covid, She can not stand for long and feels the cold badly, we said ok we will have a drink, nope !! thats not allowed, we went outside to Asda, next door as it would be warm, when we returned there was no table in the restaurant it was now 5 minues after our booking , so you guessed it, we were taken in to the the forbidden bar area to have our meal, by now there were two diners in there, there were none when we first arrived, I wrote in about this, the potatoes were rock hard, the rest was fine. This could easily have been avoided, JUST TELL CUSTOMERS, "You are not welcome till the minute of your booking" Really ruined it for us. So Remember there is no bar, so dont get there early, Having complained to H.O. The email reply from the manager was polite but not encouraging. from the outside this is a pub with food, Obviously Not. TAKE NOTE

breakfast super yummy, however there was no separate syrup for the pancakes they had been pre-syrupped and they became dry, in addition no fried eggs. Overall the black puddings hash browns bacon etc was amaze.

No eggs for breakfast and no staff showed any initiative to go to the nearby supermarket to offer this staple part of the menu or even enough to make pancakes, which were taken off, too. Rather cheeky not to reduce the price or offer substitutes or free coffee, say. Will think twice about going there for breakfast again.

Sorry Toby, dirty plates, a few people complaining about it, all food cold including beans, scrambled eggs uneatable that cold, we usually go once a week, unfortunately we will not be going back till things improve, come on Darlington get it sorted
