Lady at front of house was very rude and unwelcoming. She turned us away as there were “no tables left” even though there were plenty of available time slots on the booking website. We then booked a table, she told us that it was chaos and they’re very busy raising her voice basically. She told us that we had to wait for a table if we wanted to, then miraculously there were plenty of bar tables left that we could use. Upon, sitting down we had noticed the restaurant was pretty much empty. There were 2 big parties that overwhelmed her, but that doesn’t mean you should close your restaurant. Clearly not management material x

It's ,5 years since I've been to the Toby carvery, and only went today as the driver of a group of people on a mini bus trip. I was asked to join the group for lunch, witch was very nice of them to offer. But I must say what a disappointment it was, the meal was generally poor, it was Luke warm at best, the meat portion was so small a little bit of lamb and a half slice of beef, not worth the money they charged, in total one carvery meal one larger shandy came to £18 a total waste of money, never again will I go to a Toby pub for anything.

Food was not brilliant, mash was cold, cauliflower cheese rock hard There was quite a lot of flies hovering on cutlery and seats and was told that it’s coming to end of season so their dyeing out, plus we had an 8month baby and the flies were hovering over her. We have had nicer meals in various places and a hell of a lot cheaper will not be dining here again and really would not recommend it. Needs to be shut down and fumigated

The starters are hit and miss, had the cheesy garlic bread that tasted like it was 3 days old. The carvery itself is lovely, meat is tender and loads of veg to choose from. The puddings are really nice. I don't know why but every Toby I've visited the chef carving the meat seem to be unhappy, never seen them smile, they must have the worst job in the place.

Terrible food, beef was inedible, mash potatoe couldn’t even get off the serving spoon, carrots were black around edges, was well overdone and not fresh. Service was just as shocking, waited over 10 minutes to be seated, and then 10 minutes at the carvery station. Could even hear the staff saying how many complaints they had about the food. Shocking

Was very disappointed with the food , which is unusual as it’s usually good . Went as a family of three last night (oct31st) and the roast potatoes were so hard, I couldn’t get my knife through them . The beef I got was rock solid as I think I got the end piece . Could hardly get to the gravy as a waitress was scrubbing the counter ! Very disappointed as we usually enjoy this Toby carvery . Only good part was the desserts

Toby Carvery Bridgend is a true gem for lovers of traditional British roasts. From the moment you step in, the friendly staff make you feel right at home. The selection of perfectly roasted meats, including succulent beef, tender turkey, and juicy pork, is accompanied by an impressive array of fresh vegetables and golden Yorkshire puddings. The gravy is rich and flavourful, tying everything together beautifully. (Vegetarian options are available) The cozy, welcoming atmosphere enhances the dining experience, making it ideal for family meals or casual gatherings. It's not just a meal; it's a delightful experience that leaves you craving for the next visit. 👍🍽️

There is never a rush for us to leave to free up the table and the whole experience is always really very nice. Special mention has to go to the Manager who seats us every week (I’m sorry I don’t know his name) and Rory who is our waiter/ server more often than not. The refurb is very nice too. Very tastefully done, very homely and comfortable.

Have visited this place before and I have to say it’s awful. The roast potatoes are all hard and dry the meat is minimal and the staff are very unfriendly and uninterested in their job and their customers. I own a restaurant and I can honestly say I don’t know how they have any customers returning. It must be the cheap price but this reflects the service.

It is what it is a Toby but it seems to be getting worse over the last couple of years. They seem to pile up the food so it ages while out rather then refresh smaller portions. The heat in the room always seems to be an issue as does getting to pay your bill. Went again and it is a bit hit and miss, gravy watery and the only way I can describe is the roasties taste stale and not crispy. It may just be meas the place was rammed.

We booked last minute on our way back home to Newport. We were greeted lovely and sat down. However once we were served my partner who is 25 and myself sat with him being 25 weeks pregnant he was asked for id. (He is covered in tattoos also which is a dead giveaway for being over 18.) However we understand the policy and yes if you feel they look under 21 ask for id. We wouldn't of been so bothered if Mandy hadn't gone over to her work colleagues to have a laugh and a chat about what had just happened looking directly at me whilst chatting. I find this very unprofessional and made us feel extremely uncomfortable. Won't be visiting again. Pretty generated reply!! No effort on the reply and this will be looked into or apologies for making us feel uncomfortable. Will stick to my local small businesses from now on that appreciate custom and actually deal with unprofessional staff member (Mandy) I would also like to add that, please ask Your staff member to wash their hands or spray after smoking as the smell of smoke was very noticeable!! Since I had such a vague comeback I feel this needed to be added!

We were a table booked in of 16 from 17:00 for a works Christmas meal, in part paid by personal means. I'll start with the positives: Staff "seemed" friendly and the establishment was clean and tidy; sadly this was the only positives of the night. It wasn't until nearly 6pm we got our starters, after informing staff we were ready at about 17:15; one of which wasn't served until everyone else had finished. Upon finishing them relatively quickly, we weren't served our mains until 18:45. I had the 'Festive Burger', which was pretty sub-par (not very "festive", even Santa would wonder were the festivity aspect had gone to) and the fries were horrendous sticks of rock hard cardboard that could be used to nail an IKEA cabinet together. My colleague sat next to me said his turkey was cold (I did bring this up and the waitress who I spoke to was accommodating in suggesting they reheat it) and colleague across from me did not like his turkey dinner. This sentiment was felt up and down the table. If the restaurant was extremely busy, I can understand as I used to be a chef in a very busy restaurant so I know how frustrating it can be to get multiple covers some over the course of several hours; but this was visibly not the case. We could see the staff standing around talking and just hanging about. I, and a few of my colleagues decided to leave by 8pm as we were fed up with waiting for our desserts and couldn't be bothered to wait any longer. Just as I was leaving, a colleague asked where the desserts were and I have been advised there was another 10 minute wait from then. We were never asked during the course of our stay if everything was okay, nor did anyone come to apologise or let us know how long the food would be. Collectively we have all had an extremely unsatisfying experience at this establishment and as a result, will not be attending ever again.

Went there on a Saturday to celebrate my mums birthday. I had prebooked which I recommend for bigger parties. The food was fabulous, all 7 of us enjoyed our meals. As I’ve been before and know the portion sizes are big we skipped starters and only a few managed dessert! The staff are good, different to the staff I usually see on my mid week visits. They are brilliant and the ones today were good too.
