Toby Carvery in Bridgend

Beef was awful. Food was not hot. Service was good.

First time visiting Bridgend toby and was unfortunately disappointed the staff was very pleasant but the carvery was very disappointing the Yorkshire puddings just crumbled into pieces when you went near them with a knife the potatoes was rock hard the mash potato was horrible instant mash the tongues and spoons was red hot so was burning your hand when trying to get vegetables just wasn’t impressed overall then was left waiting nearly 20 minutes when was going to order dessert so in the end just paid the bill and left

When we went there it was short staffed so the veg was all dry and hard from being left on the hot plates for too long and took ages for the gravy to be replenished. Overall not impressed and was refused to have any discount off our meal

All 5 of us were ill after eating here

Eggs, pre cooked and dried out, can't be healthy to leave 24 eggs under hot lights. Sausages luke warm, hash browns inedible, beans more juice than beans. Toast was good but we did that ourselves. No point in complaining because it's clearly the norm. Choice of instant or filter coffee.

I made the booking online and put in a request re accessibility seating. I was greeted by name on arrival and seating was considerate to our needs. Staff were patient, friendly and helpful. Good selection of food on the carvery that catered for vegetarian and “non-carvery” diners. Food was very enjoyable. Great service and good value for money.

Lunch was lovely couldn’t have been nicer.

Came for breakfast and everything was perfect, hats off to everyone working these shifts! 💪🏼

Toby Carvery Bridgend is an absolute gem! Every visit feels like a treat, with consistently delicious food that never fails to impress. The variety and quality of the dishes make it a go-to spot for hearty, satisfying meals. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the incredible staff. They’re warm, friendly, and always go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcome and well cared for. Whether it’s a cozy family dinner or a casual meal out, Toby Carvery Bridgend offers an experience that’s both comforting and memorable. Highly recommended!

My hubby and I often pop in here, the food is always on point, but we also like the service from the lovely waitress Naomi, service is mostly good at this place anyway but always extra good when she serves us, just really friendly and efficient. I have been on diet meds and can't always manage a full adult meal. not a problem here, they will happily sort me out a smaller plate. If you like a carvery this place is a great place to come.

Fantastic service from chloe and shayma, food was lovely and fantastic atmosphere. Cocktails were amazing

We visit this place often, we love it, friendly lovely staff always polite. The food last week, Dec 2nd was just perfect, Parsnips all the veg gravy so yummy. Winter a nice cooked dinner. I would visit every day if I could. We be there again this week coming, worth every penny.

One carvery meal was missing the other with hardly any meat and only 1 dauphinoise portion .. I feel ripped off and it’s normally so food . So disappointed

Food was good staff where to busy talking rather than serving. And could do with a good clean

You know what your getting ... A very large and friendly Toby Carvery ... We always visit when in Bridgend !

Wonderful staff excellent service and exemplary food.

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

Good service. Drinks fair price. Carvery fab.

All these place much the same everywhere you go

Little bit cold easy to warm up not much of a problem

Great food as always. Never had a bad meal here.

Never fails to keep good stabdards

Good food and good customer service

Called in Toby Carvery Bridgend for Breakfast this morning at 8a.m for the all you can eat breakfast! Friendly and helpful Bar person/Waitress welcomed us. Breakfast was Exellent really fresh and tasty! Highly recommend 👌🏻

Food was a bit dry but great service as always

Worth the drive down the motorway, staff and food always excellent

Food was hot and delicious.. service great but £21 for a large roast and a Pepsi max was on the dearer side… having said that I would definitely come back…

10/10 food was good kids could play in the funhouse service was good from Eogham

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.

Very pleasant people great meals

I put the correct address and postcode in but somehow it was delivered to wrong address and Toby told he driver not to worry but to leave wrong address and leave us without our meal ! i’ll never order again.

Quality of food gone down hill roast potatoes and stuffing balls rock hard gravy thin tasteless meat slices too thin Yorkshire puds overcrowd plate and to crispy

nice meal in all but the beef was terrible on this occasion. Very fatty, but the rest was very good. Drinks and dessert extremely expensive in my opinion £3.25+ for a j2o. £6.25 for 10 bottles of j20 in Morrisons. J2O Orange & Passion Fruit 10 Bottles (2)Rating, 3.5 out of 5 from 2 reviews. 10 x 275ml £0.23 per 100ml 10 x 275ml (£0.23 per 100ml) £6.25

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.

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

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

Been to a lot of Toby carveries but this is the best one by far that we have been to. Staff were friendly and polite, the restaurant was very nice but the food was amazing

The meat was nice but all the veg was dried out from being under the heat lamps, it wasn't worth the money, looked awful, no quality and it was bland

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

Everything I asked for was on the order, they add some veg I didn’t want but I was able to get rid of that. Food was very tasty

Would’ve been five stars if the server was a bit more enthusiastic. He was quite disinterested in the customer. You get more of a rapport with a self service checkout 🤣

Cold food. Yorkshire puddings had a pool of grease in it, you could dip your finger in it. This was changed on request. Parking is a joke. Staff eating wagon wheels on the reception desk. Thankfully the one I normally use in Essex is much better

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. 👍🍽️

Very friendly place nothing to much trouble for the staff very friendly chef and nice food.

always a nice meal at the toby carvery. nice selection of meat and really love the dalphinoise. but please add parsnips and mashed swede to weekday carvery. also posted pics of their breakfast. i was not impressed unfortunately. the sausages were hard no pastries or muffins like what is on offer elsewhere, the breakfast yorkies i was meant to believe contain bacon and onion bits but didnt and no breakfast gravy which i had read about. its hard to recommend the breakfast although it is reasonably priced

This is an amazing branch. The food is always lovely and so are the staff.

Angela our server was amazingly accommodating and understood immediately that my tremor made plate carrying difficult and helped us negotiate it

Perfect place foe Sunday roast.

Love this Toby Carvery .The staff are so polite and welcoming.

Dreadful. Would like to request a refund

Great food and service was excellent.

Would have been a nice meal if the gravy and Yorkshire pudding wasn’t missing!!

Busy but a good size restaurant, plenty of areas we got a great nook set back. Food was good as carvery should be.

I stated on the order notes no potatoes on the one dish without stuffing. Both orders arrived covered in mashed potatoes and stuffing, making this unsuitable for my diet. How hard is it to follow the instructions when using a buffet?

Cold and potatoes were like cardboard

Clean, airy and lovely selection for a family breakfast!

great food with unlimited vegetables .Staff member very attentive .Enjoyable evening

Brilliant service all round from being taken to our seats to the waitress taking our drinks order

Always love coming back for the carvery

My Dad and I have Sunday lunch every week. The food is always lovely, we are made to feel welcome and the staff are extremely friendly. 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.

Good carvery except the roasties very dry and stoggy even when fresh from the kitchen shame since the rest is good

Eat twice a week here staff excellent all helpful...food good and restaurant always clean.,what more can you ask foropi

The estimate delivery time was updated 3 times.

Just some of the meat was a bit dry. But on the whole I enjoyed the meal

Excellent carvery and good service especially as there were 37 of us

Asked for no peas and some cutlery as i am in work so don’t have any with me. neither instructions were followed so now i have a ridiculous amount of peas to eat with my hands!

Waited over an hr and didn’t turn up so I cancelled. Never again

Extremely busy however managed to get us a table for 3.served quickly and food was delicious

Came here for years, best value for money around any day - and the fact you can take home what you can’t finish is even better! 😂👍

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.

Try not to go on a Sunday as they cannot cope with the amount of people that are there.

The only problem was where we were seated in the bar, on a small table in the corner, we’re my wife kept hitting her back on the corner of the fireplace, as there was not enough room to get in or out

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 went about 12 ish today what is going on witj the place it's gone down hill the meat was so fatty its was horrible the roast potatoes in gravey taste realy old and the roast potatoes not in graveyard were like bolted potatoes the mess on the counter was putting me off then the gravey was like water thsts second time ive been its gone horrible will not return

Appalling attitude on staff when trying to discuss an issue

Always a lovely Sunday roast lunch can be had here. We are regular customers and have never experienced bad food or service.

Well recommended, great food & friendly, helpful staff, use it weekly for family get together, can't fault them.

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!

ordered ultimate meats 3 choices. no gammon or beef added although requested

We made a booking but arrived 20 minutes late due to traffic we made our apologies and they found an alternative table for which we were grateful as the restaurant was very busy at the time. Great food and very pleasant staff. Thanks!

Fantastic restaurant, as well as best Toby Carvery, my family have visited. Great friendly staff that go out of their way to ensure you are comfortable and well fed.

Best Sunday dinner I've had in a while. We were the first ones up to the cavery. All the meat was fresh, a Kgreat choice of potatoe dishes and fresh vegetables. Staff friendly and very accommodating. We ended up having a large plate with beef, pork, and lamb, but there are 5 different meats on a Sunday. Well worth the money!

Very tasty & plenty of food with lovely gravy

Been coming to toby carvery in bridgend for a long time . Tryed them all cardiff caerphilly. Bridgend is the best off them all . I always go early so hardly any quese food all fresh high recommend

A couple weeks ago I went to visit Toby Carvery Bridgend and we were serviced by Malika. She was fantastic, very engaging and entertaining! She gave a few of her favourite suggestions from the menu! The desserts were lovely! All round a great place for lunch! The carvery was really great too and you get a lot of the meat trimmings! Overall great experience!

Stopped for breakfast food hot and staff friendly

Food was not delivered. Driver won’t answer. Can’t contact justeat

Just been to your carvery, can I just say Melika our waitress was absolutely outstanding. Never laughed or been so treated well, she was absolutely amazing. Melika made our visit perfect. What a lively lovely personality, definitely will be back and will hope Melika will serve us again. Food was just beautiful too

Some of the food was cold to warm and some where hard after being under the heated lights to long

Food was hard and almost tasted stale like it had been left out for a long time. Not fresh

the driver was nice and friendly

Kids really love a Sunday dinner from here never have no complaints amazing

Great food drinks were expensive. Service was excellent from being shown to seat to being served drinks and pudding.

Good choice and good quality Carvery. Mia our waitress was excellent.

Food was good and staff but the biggest let down for me was the state on the plates. They were grimey. I picked up 5 plates and had to wash it my self. The underside of the plate were sticking also. Probly wouldent go back again after that tbh

I had an amazing experience there and the waitress Mandy took all my orders and was fantastic at service definitely be going back

Fabulous waitress named Laura made sure our visit was enjoyable and safe for us with food allergies . Thanks Laura- we will be back

Me and my partner thought we’d give Toby Carvery a go - as we hadn’t been in years. The server Mandy was particularly good at explaining things to us. Food was great, with a variety of different meats. Will be returning again soon!

Went to Toby for dinner last Sunday and the food was top notch. Everything warm and fresh and our waitress Laura Dee went out of her way to make our stay memorable. Will be going back today for another outing. Highly recommend and Laura made our day.

Great - been going to Twelve years for breakfast, can't fault it
