"Travelling down to Stoke for a gig (number two in a long line of events during October) and having not eaten for hours the previous day, we were determined to find some reliable decent food. We saw the Toby, and despite its lurid appearance decided to go in. Hubby mumbling “we can always find somewhere else, I suppose.” Anyway, in we went. Quiet doesn’t come close. No staff in evidence at all, but the smell of the food made us decide to stay. To be fair the chef was topping up the food and shortly after someone came to take my husbands drink order. The staff were lovely and friendly, but I think a bit overworked, there were a lot of tables that needed clearing. Despite that it’s a very welcoming place, clean and comfortable. We ordered our food, I had the veg carvery and himself had the vegetarian melt. We were told they would notify us when the melt was ready and a really friendly young man came over to let us know it was ready. We both enjoyed our food. It was tasty, nicely cooked and piping hot. The restaurant is on crossroads and it was an excellent spot for people watching. Even the appearance of a man shouting abuse at someone didn’t spoil things, the waitress/barmaid handled it really well. It’s a good place to eat, not the most exciting, but as you go to eat what’s not to like."

Sunday price £13 on a Bank Holiday Monday!!!!!! They don’t put that in big letters do they?!!!! They advertise lamb on a Sunday but no lamb today! Food same as ever….great meat, average veg and variable Yorkshire puddings. Mine was quite tough. If I’d known I would have gone a different and cheaper day.

Went on 7th Apr for carvery, nothing said about parking/registering number plate,as a result I've received a £100 fine, sent a message to toby talke about it no reply, I'm nearly 70 yes old and can't afford it. If the staff who greeted me would have just mentioned about registering car this could have been avoided . Help would be appreciated

Took a party of 10 for the breakfast . Very friendly welcome and table ready as expected . Food was excellent , hot and fresh . The icing on the cake was the excellent service received from Ceris . Came to check all was well with our breakfast, which it was, and after we had finished eating returned to make sure we had enjoyed our visit . A friendly face goes a long way and nothing was too much trouble . We enjoy eating at this location . View menu

Used to love coming to this Toby Carvery as everything was brilliant. Visited with my Mum today (13 Dec) and to say it’s going down the pan is the only way to describe it. Yorkshire puddings were freezing cold, sprouts were like bullets, even the little ones. No one came around as we were eating to ask if everything was ok, they just removed the plates once we had finished. I don’t mind paying money for good food, but to hardly have anything to eat because of the quality and still paying £25 is ridiculous.

Absolute joke No plates No sausages no pancakes no hash brown no pig pudding. Was told with attitude to go and sit for it to be cooked by the kitchen staff only to be told by the miserable manager and her attitude that if we didn’t get food we wouldn’t get any as there was only 1 hour left for the breakfast. Wouldn’t recommend Only 1 blonde lady was really nice and apologised to everyone who was there I told her it wasn’t her fault it was the managers When we got plates they were cold Been here loads for carvery and not had an issue but today was really bad and bad management

Went here for the evening carvery for my sister's birthday dinner. Excellent food , generous serving of any of the meats on offer, I had the slow-roasted lamb, excellent. Nicely cooked vegetables to help yourself to and the lovely Toby gravy, altogether excellent dining. The only fly-in-the-ointment was a large family group of Eastern Europeans at the next table shouting at each other in normal conversation, you couldn't hear yourself think. Apart from that, happy to reccomend for a good meal out. I also have the TGTG app from here on a regular basis and excellent servings and saves throwing the food away. View menu

Not been here for years then it was suggested we go as it had improved on the food side of things , so visited at dinner time and was shown to a table from where we ordered drinks and shown where the carvery was there was a good choice of meats and plenty variety of vegetables and also pasta , Must say very pleasantly surprised how good it was and so we visited a week later and the quality and service was still just as good so we will visit again soon . One thing that could be improved on would be help for anyone struggling to walk and hold a full dinner plate , assistance in this quarter would be nice, I know we could ask but it would be good if staff noticed anyone with disability first a...

We went in the morning for the buffet style breakfast. Cold plates so your food goes cold really quickly. Buffet serving spoons are all tiny, as in child sized, which is beyond stingy, tight and really rather pathetic on every level. Greasy eggs swimming in grease. Bacon caked in grease. Greasy sausages. The hash browns were disgusting; like squashed, dried up wafers and tasted as bad as they looked. Beans in that much juice it was more like bean soup . Cheap, tiny pieces of chopped tomatoes. No cooked tomatoes or scrambled eggs, yet they bizarrely had Yorkshire Puddings and a jug full of gravy out??!! Inattentive staff and noone asked if we were enjoying our meal. I 've had 100% better brea...
