Roast house carvery in Chelmsford

Decent Roast, friendly staff. Good value for money. Quite a decent selection although had to wait for some of the meat to be replenished. Worth a visit and also support your local establishments!

Quite often fancy a Roast at short notice... Always get a table early evening on a Sunday... Roast is good and excellent value... Staff are friendly and the Lady who runs the place is always chatty with us.. We are becoming regulars... Lol

We was really looking forward to this carvery after looking at website photos, however we were disappointed with the food, the beef was a cheap cut of meat which contained tubes, the pork was fatty and tough, the turkey was much more edible. Roast potatoes weren't at all cooked well they weren't at all crispy, the sausage and stuffing was cold and the cauliflower cheese was raw and watery tbh I've had better at a Toby carvery and thats saying something, we were asked 3 times by 3 different members of staff if our meal was OK I felt that was a bit extreme as we were trying to eat as quickly as possible due to the food temperature The staff were friendly and although I am honest with my review I do understand this is a fairly new venture and I hope my points of criticism will help to improve the business.

After seeing this advertised on front page of "City Time" decided to vist around 16:00hrs 6th Aug had not booked but no problem getting a table. Carvery was fantastic I got beef pork Turkey Gammon Sauage Mash Roast Potatoes Nwe Potaoes Stuffing Yorkshire Gravy & all the Veg I wanted all for £12.99 every thing was good quality well cooked and hot. We will definatly come back again as great food and good value for money (Was the Black Bull Margeretting)

This was one of the best places we have been to eat, the food was excellent, the staff was friendly and helpful, all in all perfect!!!

The food was sensational and the service was perfect (not to quick, not too fast). The drinks were delish and all the staff were very welcoming. Would totally recommend!!!

Really good value for money, for a midweek carvery there was plenty of good veg and meat. They also do gluten-free Yorkshire puds you don't always get, and there was a gluten-free dessert. We will be returning for a Sunday roast in the near future.

Me and my family had such a lovely roast dinner at the Roast House. We felt so welcomed by all the staff, and service was great. The roast itself is to die for.. especially the turkey and cauliflower cheese. Would highly recommend.

Arrived for our 6pm. Bought drinks and took a seat. Table was very dirty! Was told that there was no pork…just beef and turkey. Couldn’t see the turkey but the beef was small and dried out. All the food had been left uncovered, unattended, under heat lamps. Bowls of veg with just a scraping left at bottom. Very unappealing. And then we were told there were no roast potatoes either! Decided to leave it and go elsewhere. Very disappointing as was looking forward to a carvery. The breakfasts here were always excellent. Nice food and lovely service. But this carvery is a disaster. Badly managed. If you know you took a booking for 6pm surely you make sure you have roast potatoes?! Photos on Facebook look great but it’s nothing like this. Such a shame.

Today was my first visit to this carvery and my last, you get 1 yes 1 slice of meat,all the vegetables were over cooked, I'm not being picky but they were fine if you've got false teeth, so soggy, serving area is cramped and gravy next to people eating,not good, I'm afraid this carvery would not win any Awards, it was the worst Roast dinner I've had, and not very Hot,the only thing that's hot is tha the plate,Staff didn't even asked if everything was okay, even though we left most of it, so don't bother with this place

Great traditional food in a lovely family run pub. Perfect for my teenagers with big appetites. We will be back for the roast potato’s alone!
