Moby Dick in Barking and Dagenham

Lovely meal apart from Yorkshire pudding tasted funny jess was fantastic as always very welcoming and good at her job will definitely go back again

We was greeted by Cherise who was ever so friendly and attentive towards us and made us feel very welcome. The chef who cooked the breakfast was Czesiek. His food was absolutely amazing. Everything was displayed really nice and inviting. You could really see that he takes an almighty amount of pride in his cooking, and the taste was lovely and made me want to go back up for a second helping.

We love coming here the staff are always very friendly. Our server was Neve she is a lovely lady and always very pleasant to talk to.food is always very lovely

Busy today, but the food was good, the staff were friendly and the venue was nice! Had a good time! Will definitely visit again! 😀

Nice friendly environment, staff were very warming and receptive from all aspects. Food was great and affordable, definitely worth a visit.

Excellent and professional service. Even tho the crumble had plums in it, the waitress ‘Dee’ was very helpful and offered alternative options.

When you are paying £70 for dinner you would expect a flawless experience. This establishment was a disaster on Christmas Day. The company needs to get one big day right and they failed miserably. The appalling experience started before the big day when the restaurant lost our order twice before hand resulting in them calling us to ask for it again. The computer systems when down on the day resulting in over an hour delay just to sit down. All the orders were lost. We were told the computers were playing up a few days prior to Christmas Day. If this was the case management should have had paper copies of orders etc not relying on the flakey computer systems. Poor planning. Furthermore the cocker apparently broke so no turkey could be served. The food was substandard with dry and fatty meats and the vegetables tasted like they had just been thrown in the microwave. To sum up the whole experience was appalling and could have been avoided with better planning from management.

It is always great pleasure coming here. Very good place to spent time with friends and family. Very friendly staff and good food

Sharon, Dee and Lucy were absolutely amazing, especially with a picky child eater. Couldn’t rate their service high enough - made our evening brilliant

Wonderful Boxing Day lunch at the Toby. The food was cooked at the right temperature, the veggies were well cooked and desserts were fabulous. Dee, the server was very attentive and the whole experience went smoothly. Thank you for making our family get-together super.

Excellent service, food was delicious. Dee was great at her job she is rushed off her feet but still made sure we had everyone we needed with a smile 10/10 service

Always go there once a week, for a very tasty carvery with my husband. Always friendly and helpful staff will always recommend to family and friends.

Fantastic, such wonderful service, food was wonderful and very much enjoyed out time here. One of our favourite Toby's

I have visited several times times and I have invariably received a warm welcome and efficient service from all the staff although I would like to give a special shout out to Sofia and Dee, who both made my last visit particularly enjoyable. The food offering is well presented and excellent value as is the range of drinks on offer. I have visited several Toby Carverys in the past and Moby Dick stands out as one of the best. Well done everyone!

The staff here are lovely, so professional and helpful. Our server was Dee she was amazing. The food was lovely too and we are looking forward to going back.

Was greated at the door by sharon who showed us to our tables our waitress Dee greated us right away and was very lovely and bubbly she got our drinks straight away which were prepared by Fran and were amazing the carver charlie was very nice and polite, my friend got a sandwich which was prepared by nicole and she said it was AMAZING

Fran was excellent when serving us. She was very energetic whilst being very helpful and professional. She was also very attentive, offering recommendations and all with a smile.

Disgraceful no service. Woman who seated us was picking food out her teeth with her fingers as she had just eaten as she seated us ... ordered drink had to ask again for it . Food cold. Hard rubbery potatoes . Which the staff new were bad as she apologised. So why not tell me before I ordered . Could not eat the food so went without . Been here before but never again . It's gone from bad to worse

Chef, with full beard, came to change breakfast items several times with no beard net. 🤮 put us off our food completely.

The roast dinner was amazing like always, elvita was especially lovely! We will be coming back again soon. Customer service is a 10/10 every time

Neve was our server she was amazing friendly professional and informative she was full of knowledge and helped when it came to our dietary needs credit to moby dick

Stopped serving, waiting for potatoes. We were in the queue well over 15 minutes but people in front had been there much longer. When we were eventually served the meat was OK but many of the vegetables were cold and had obviously sat there a long time and one item had been removed and not replaced. The drinks machine hasn't worked here for a long time (although you aren't told and there's no notice on the machine), meaning you have to queue and can't get most of the drinks that should be available from the machine.

We love dining at Moby Dick. This time we took our friends with us. It was their first time at carvery. Everyone enjoyed the meal. Neve and Sofia were lovely hosts. Dee was outstanding. She even brought my husband a toothpick. Mo carved generous pieces of meat. We even had some live music. Thoroughly enjoyed our time!!! Thank you.

Lovely venue, nice food, Friday night music, friendly staff, and dog friendly, what more could you ask for? A refurb and a new manager, and 12 months and this restaurant has been transformed! Definitely worth a visit! 😀

When I arrived to Toby Carvery with my family, we had to wait multiple minutes until a staff member came to serve us. We weren’t welcomed nicely at all. And the staff members ignored us and didn’t ask us how the food was compared to other tables. The staff were rude and the food was also cold. We had a bad experience compared to other branches where staff made us feel welcome and were lovely. Even the food was hot and tasty in other branches. May have to go to Harvester as myself and my family were genuinely appalled by the service we received.

Food was lovely, had a roast carvery with gammon and turkey. Special thanks to Dee, Steven, Sharon, Lucy & Charlie for looking after us! Service was excellent. Dee was very attentive and was very knowledgeable with our dietary requirements. This restaurant caters for coeliac! Very warm welcome, friendly staff.

Stay at the Premier Inn next door and eat in the Toby carvery...the food is really good and the staff are seriously nice especially Dee who served me and Mo who was the carver...

Come for a family dinner after a quite traumatic week or so. Was met by our waitress Elvita. She was absolutely amazing and she helped us so much. Made my family’s dinning experience phenomenal. She was very talkative and made us feel welcome. She was a lovely waitress, very attentive and we will definitely be going back. Will call ahead to make sure she’s working. 10/10. Perfect day.

Best roast dinner around! The Yorkshire puds and roast potatoes were amazing thanks Aaron & Lucy! Meat carved expertly by Charlie! Fab service from Sharron.

Nice breakfast at this Toby and plenty of it too! Nice clean restaurant and friendly staff too! Will definitely visit again!

It was a nice atmosphere however the desserts were a disappointment.We got the sticky toffee cake and the seasonal sponge but instead of a nice sponge cake,we were greeted with a store bought cupcake which was disgusting.We ended up sending the toffee cake back because the custard was sat out for an outrageously long time.They both cost around £5 which was a total rip off for what we got.Despite this,our waiter,Hailey,was so lovely and we all loved her attitude.She is a very nice waitress.If you come here,It would be such a pleasure to have Hailey as your server.

The food here was great, the service from the waitress was very good. As was most of the other staff we crossed paths with. I do have one thing to mention. You have who I believe is a new member of management here! The way I’ve seen her speak to the younger members of staff is disgusting slapping one of them to move them out the way, I see her pocket a tip that belonged to the waitress in our section. This is disgusting

Fantastic service, delicious food, absolutely brilliant with our various allergies (soy, dairy, nuts, gluten free). Brought us fresh vegetables with our meals to ensure no cross-contamination and nothing was too much trouble. Totally recommend.

Hade a lovely Easter roast dinner. Service was great, food delicious if a little luke warm, especially the meats. Restaurant was nice friendly and we had a great meal.

Our server Dee was fantastic! Professional, efficient, friendly & very hardworking. A true credit to your company! Will definitely return soon.

Great food with fantastic service thanks to Sharon sylwia + mo see you all again for another fantastic night out with friends

We had a great time at Toby carvery today and our waiter Hayley couldn’t have been nicer. She was very kind and brought us our food very efficiently.

I with my husband was firstly at this Carvery. It's a friendly place with good food. Server was Debbie , Carver was Lucu . They was polite and sociable.

We had a lovely Sunday roast which was five star. The lady and gentlemen that was on the carvery were very professional and friendly. We were served a waitress named Hayley, she was very attentive, friendly and helpful We tried to do a review online, but had a great trouble. It would be helpful if you had a box inside the restaurant where we could put our reviews All in all, it was a lovely experience, and we will be returning again

HAYLEY should be treasured, as the most jolly server I have come across in a long time! Every detail of our order was remembered, and she was so warm and friendly throughout our whole meal. She really made the experience for us, and we shall return with a larger group in the future, safe in the knowledge that nothing is too much trouble for HAYLEY.

Great food and great service! Clean and tidy. Efficient and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere and quick service. We were served by Debbie. Thank you!

Great Service! Good food - Waitrest Dee great! Thank you for looking after us. The food was tasty! A good celebration having our own private space.

We have been dinning at The Moby Dick as a group on a Wednesday evening for several year's . The food is always very good and the staff are lovely, with a special mention for Sharon and Lucy who are always helpful and friendly.

Was absolutely great service especially Sharon she was more than helpful with everything 😊 gta love there potato cheese thing 🤗

Staff was very helpful to fit us in, 2ith such short notice! Dee was very helpful and kind! Delivered excellent service and food was amazing!

Fran was great. 6 of us, one vegan and one gluten free and she catered for us perfectly. Ensured there was no cross contaminating for GF as plated up my food before it went to the buffet. Had my own gravy too and came with...

Amazing family experience, not our usual Toby but the best one we have been too. Excellent customer service from Dee, the Carver, Sylvia and Chefs Hannah/Aaron. Very helpful and knowledgeable regarding allergies. Clearly a very well run and managed team. A really great experience. Thank...

Live music - even set up banners and balloons for my birthday! Amazing evening thank you! Really loved the team and guy singing was great

Food was very good. Staff were pleasant. Downside was hair found in breakfast Yorkshire pudding. The worst part is trying to decipher from what part of the body it came from. The S shaped curl suggests lower, but I would hope it was from a...

The staff were amazing, thank you Dee for lovely service. There was a singer on the night, which played great song even tho a little out of tune! We enjoyed the bar snacks and drinks. Over all a good night.

All good very nice food, staff was helpful and quick. Booking a table was easy and we were seated straight away. Would recommend.

Excellent service by staff all round, glad to be back. Lovely food in a nice fresh setting. Fantastic evening, thank you to Dee who always goes above and beyond, she’s a star. Nothing at all was to much for her and she handled herself wonderfully,...

Cold food will not return for lunch anymore.Even weigh the meat now..I know you dont expect really hot but it should at least be warm.But it was stone cold.I got there for 12.30 so not like it had been sitting there all day.Come on management...

Visited 5.30pm on Thursday, carvery deck looked like they had just opened food was very well presented, hot and plenty of choice. Sauces and gravy area was clean and well stocked. In between serving guests could see carver cleaning and sweeping keeping everything looking perfect....

Visited the restaurant this afternoon and had a carvery meal. We were welcomed by Sharon and she showed us to our seats and took our drink orders. We received our drinks and waited a few more minutes but no server appeared. We went and got...

5 Star Review that is totally deserved! This restaurant has been transformed! It is newly refurbished and has a new manageress that is superb and on the ball! The staff are nice, polite and courteous and the food and service is fantastic, and the venue is amazing! Neve the server was so friendly, Aaron was the best carver ever and Maria was the bestest chef! We will definitely visit again, it was an absolute pleasure!

Popped in to the Toby carvery @ the Moby Dick on whale bone lane for lunch. It was a bit early but we were hungry , got seated very quickly and there was hardly any queue waiting to be served the choice of meat was very good there was five options and the portions were good. The vegetables were plentyful and everything was hot.Sylvia who was in charge of the food made sure everything was topped up and well presented. The atmosphere was jovial and made for a pleasant lunch. The place was starting to get busy as we were finishing. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

A complete all round great experience! A big thank you to the chef Mo the food was great, the carver Sylvia and the server Dee.I cannot give a higher review! We will be coming again!

Amazing service by Tammy. The manager Sharon was very welcoming upon our arrival and the Chef Sylwias hash is the best part of this amazing breakfast. Will definitely be back.

Not really impressed. Poor to non existent service and lukewarm food. The floor was covered with food which hadn’t been cleaned up. Can’t see why this was the case as restaurant was 2/3rds empty. Manager great and older guy on serving bench totally understood the seriousness of food allergies. The young guy on the serving bench was nonchalant and didn’t really seem to “get it.” I’m still alive tho without a hospital visit!

Took my 86 year old mum here for her birthday. The most important thing for me that day was she felt that she was looked after, and she certainly was; several of the staff team either helped her to her seat, helped her with her plate, and helped her back again. Really caring team and we were well served at our table by Elvita. Our carver was Sylwia who gave good portions and friendly service. Looks good after its refurbishment, we'll be back.

The food was delicious, service was impeccable ! Would recommend. The Yorkshire pudding was especially amazing!!

Miam miam, this meal was very delicious, so delicious in fact I cried a little. If I had the money I would go again; alas I cannot fund another endeavor to this fine establishment

Newly decorated and looks lovely. All staff were super friendly and helpful especially our waitress Hayley and carver Syluid. Food was lovely but could have been hotter.

Brilliant service and very friendly. Food is always tasty and fresh. Highly recommend coming here!!!

A great place for a tasty casual breakfast, all the food was cooked well, Cherise was very pleasent and helpful.

Lovely staff great food , lovely service from Cherie as always , always enjoy coming for food here

Popped in for a quick coffee and was left waiting for 20 minutes. Chased it up and we left as they were all busy setting up their carvery. They were unhelpful and rude. Unacceptable level of service- they were fully staffed and we were the...

Brilliant service and always welcoming .. Staff Sharon & Cherise are awesome! Always friendly and helpful! Breakfast is 10/10 cooked to perfection

Meat was nice and fresh. Potatoes lovely. Peas had dried up a bit but otherwise good. Lovely waitress. Got in before the rush.

We were looking forward to the newly refurbished restrauant....decided to order coffees before our meals.....Well service was terrible, one coffee was made and put on counter, then we waited and waited as the lukewarm coffee cooled.Eventually I was able to attract our original server, who...

The whole restaurant has had a refurb and it looks amazing! The staff are really helpful and friendly, our waitress Elvita was excellent always nearby and on hand for more drinks and puddings absolutely 5 star service nothing was too much trouble for her, the...

Elvita was our server and to our beliefs she has only been working for the business for a few weeks. I’ve worked in hospitality myself for over 7 years and she was absolutely outstanding! I would hire her myself in a heartbeat. We were a...

Fantastic service for serving 30 guest breakfasts really good service organised by the mangeress, had a great breakfast after a party.

Food was lovely! Our server Elvita was lovely and put up with my friends banta! Carver was also great Sylwia! Very chatty! Never been here before and will forsure come back again! Girls on the bar were lovely too

The service was outstanding, my grand daughter wanted an off the menu item, the team went out their way to pull the items to make her bespoke breakfast dish. Excellent service, well done.

It is so busy here on Sundays, we waited in the Que for a while when we got back to eat the food was cold, it’s probably because it was the weekend and I’m sure it would be better during the week, the service from...

Havent been here for ages.and it was ok.there was 3 children and 4 adults.staff were very helpful .friendly nothing to much . Food was ok plenty of meat and not cut paper thin.plenty of choice.we got the drinks ..nice plenty of cold ice on a...

Venue is old and really run down. Went during the week for dinner and there was no clientele, other than at the bar! The staff looked demoralised and the food had clearly been left for so long due to the lack of clientele that it...

was met by the bubbly Sharon , who guided me through the process of obtaining my food. Sylvia was the carver on today and with her pleasant and jovial temperament was very efficient in cutting our meat requirements and served. There was an ample choice...

We booked a table for 8pm. Arrived but no one greeted us on the door, we made our way through the restaurant and a staff member said half the restaurant was closed and that's why no one was on the door. Restaurant was cold and...

AMAZING. Our server Dee was fantastic and gave us great recommendations. Food was delicious exactly what we needed after a day at aqua action. Good vibe, not too busy, would come again. Shame it’s so far away! Also get the brownie 10/10

My dinner was really filling and Hayley was very kind and was always smiling I would definitely come again

Very slow service, very unfriendly staff throughout. The food was of expected standard. We were squashed into a corner with a other large family right next to us, struggling to fit, when the place was fairly empty. We were waiting so long to order dessert,...

DO NOT GO HERE... The worst food I've ever tasted... Had to throw it away 🤮🤮🤮 In my delivery it was supposed to be ultimate meat carvery.. I got pigs in blankets burnt so much they were stuck together and was like charcoal.. I got...

Love this restaurant, fantastic service brilliant food thank you so much to the wonderful Neve and the brilliant Rebecca what a credit to Toby Carvery they are. Meat was fantastic puddings were so delicious we all had a fabulous time.

Overall perfect Fresh food and lovely lady who served us called Hayley Very quick service Yummy dessert nice and hot

Server Dee was lovely! Very helpful! Food had been sat there a while as it wasn’t very busy which was strange for a Saturday dinner time in the school holidays!

Friendly customer service and nice food, was served by Sharon who was polite and friendly and so was the carver

I’m truly shocked by the service I received today, my waitress Jill was rude and unprofessional. The way she spoke to other members of staff was shocking. The women never had smile on her face and looked like she’d rather be anywhere else.

Waitress (debbie) on first meeting was rude & unfriendly, no smiles or asking if all ok through whole service, no customer service at all, another waitress walking about looked just as miserable!! Food lovely though lol

Can't understand some reviews we've eaten here many times and always had good food well cooked not always as hot as it could be but edible never cold. Staff always polite and friendly this time our waitress Jill was pleasent and attentive. Must also give...

8pm on a Sunday night. Working all day and staying next door at The Premier Inn. Decided on a Roast. DONT TAKE WALK INS. She said as she counted out the days takings in full view of the customers. Apparently, their Complaints website has the...

Gorgeous Sunday lunch. Food was fabulous and the service was excellent! Really impressed with waiting staff they were very friendly and helpful

Most disgusting Sunday roast I have ever had. Had to wait 45 minutes in a hot queue and when we got to the meat it’s was so dry and fatty and the portion size were so small. The Yorkshire pudding were under cooked and raw,...

We went for a family reunion this weekend at the Moby Dick as we come from this area. From Friday night to Sunday Morning the staff were amazing and so attentative to our large group. On Saturday the staff were Neve, Paul Dee, Jill and...

I visited The Moby Dick this weekend with my family for my Dad's Birthday. The food was ok and it was very good value. I have to say the toilets could do with a bit of a clean, but our waitress was very, very good....

Jill was brilliant with our 6 year old daughter who brought her knuckles snuggly toy. Food was good

Rosie our waitress was excellent couldn't do enough for our party, so friendly and really made our time an excellent experience

We had a family get-together to celebrate a birthday. Nice welcome from the staff and throughout our visit. Although the surroundings need a bit of an uplift, everywhere was clean. The carvery was well stocked up and the food was lovely. We find that at...
