Toby Carvery
Toby Carvery
Has anyone been?... Looking for an affordable meal out at the weekend and I have been told that it was an exclusive place at bargain prices!... Any recommendations for a nice meal out this lovely sunny weekend?
Re: Toby Carvery
It’s alright for a cheap and cheerful breakfast/carvery.
There’s a nice one over Bolton way, in a nice setting. The one in Keighley feels more like the Queen Vic.
Edit - it’s Crompton Way, Bolton

Re: Toby Carvery
Not usually for me as I’m a fussy bugger but some can be really decent when I’m working away.
Guess you can’t go wrong for a low cost carvery or breakfast as someone else said above.

Re: Toby Carvery
Someone with BigChaCha money wouldn't be seen in one of them.

Re: Toby Carvery
I can’t recommend any specific toby carveries but the angel at hetton is good quality food reasonably priced in pleasant surroundings.

Re: Toby Carvery
“ exclusive place “
Hook , bait , cast!!
Toby Carvery’s are ok if you’re stuck miles away and starving at 3pm on a Tues and I guess you can wash down with a pint too . But carverys at weekends are hell on earth . I went to one last yr ,sort of on the way to Gawthorpe after coming off motorway bit before a cricket club ? Full of screaming kids , coffin dodgers etc and the food.. ( though cleverly presented ) was little more than re-heated /fried cheap frozen food level. A greasy spoon would have done better

Re: Toby Carvery
The only place I have ever been where Yorkshire pudding is served at breakfast. I stopped off at The Boat & Horses in Chadderton whilst on the road with work, for some lunch earlier in the week - we sat outside because it was a lovely, hot day. It amazed us how many people were demolishing the carvery on a day like that! Plates piled high with all the contents of a roast dinner.
Mind you, they do a roaring trade in roast dinners in Benidorm, Magaluf etc. so maybe I'm the one that's missing the point?

A Tony Carvery
The one and only time I ate that concoction of cheap fatty meat and over cooked vegetables that had been sat under some warm lights for 5 hours I think they were showing Hart to Hart on the TV in the corner

Re: Toby Carvery
In all seriousness, I used to love a carvery or buffet but I am not a fan these days... I don't mind the new system of buffets I have seen at Chinese restaurants though, where you sit down and choose from a buffet meal card and it is cooked fresh for you.

Re: Toby Carvery
Toby Carvery - fantastic if you can find a good clean restaurant to have one in, though they are few and far between these days.
I do like an all you can eat type buffet, there's one in MK called MK Buffet Village - which offers a selection of food from around the world for about £15 each (used to be about £8 a couple of years back... but inflation etc...)
all just for a treat though
