Toby Carvery Restaurant in Barnsley

We when today for dinner the food was lovely a good atmosphere & the servers are great to get on with our server was donna xx

Called here for something to eat, have visited before but immediately noticed how much better everything was. Nicely decorated restaurant, lovely greeting from our server, Charlotte. The carvery selection had also undergone a transformation - choice, of beef, turkey, gammon, roast pork or roast lamb. Henry the carver was polite and pleasant. Generous portion of meats, lovely Yorkshire pudding, and an exceptional choice of vegetable as and potato dishes. Very impressed with the quality on offer and would recommend

Great service, lovely food, visit most weeks. Charlotte gave us excellent service, Ted the carver was very friendly and courteous.

Fantastic service by Donna, made to feel very welcome, food was beautiful. Henry the chef was very friendly too with good portion of meat

Food was fab, waitresses and bar staff were fab. Great prices, absolutely brilliant. Apart from the chefs. We were trying to pick up the tongs for parsnips ect. They were burning hot. A lady pointed this out and the chefs behind the counter predominantly a younger one was really really rude to her. It was completely unnecessary, there was zero reason to be so rude. Like I say, the waitresses were amazing. They went out of their way to be sooo helpful and deserve medals. I know it was hot today and that must of been tough on all the staff . Being rude to that woman for no good reason though, was poor.

Lovely roast dinner, very tasty! Always piping hot. Super friendly waiting staff and chefs, always feel so welcome and cozy. Thank you :)

Food was spot on, Chelsea was brilliant and got us what we needed. Always love a carvery and at short notice got us sat down quickly

Quickly shown to our table on arrival & our server Kacey gave a friendly & efficient service sorting out a drinks order & pointing us to the carvery which we had decided on. At the carvery, Harry asked for our choices & carved the meat expertly. Another member of the team was checking the veg & bringing fresh dishes. The Apple sauce had run out. The food was all hot, well cooked & tasty. The Toby app gives free treats & carveries too. A value for money meal.

Donna the waitress is always friendly and prompt with your orders . Would recommend visiting for the lovely food on offer as well

Dinner was lovely, customer service was brilliant & plenty of car parking spaces available. Overall the visit was amazing 😀

Amazing customer service plenty of car park spaces available perfect lunch enjoyed the time out served with a smile with the lovley Donna greeted by Harry the carver.

I wouldn’t bother booking, can’t get your table anyway. Walked in seemed like they had over booked. Reported people arrived late and had therefore put the service behind. If people arrive late they should lose their table or you are taking too many bookings

As always a fantastic Sunday lunch and great service from Donna 11/10 and the two carvers 10/10. Excellent parking please remember to put your car registration in the machine at reception.

The food here was really delicious. I had a very good time here. The waiters Donna and Libby were really friendly, kind, and helpful. Carvery Josh - top G.

Healthy and tasty food A great variety available Thank you to Kacey and Josh for a friendly and warm experience. We will be coming again

Brilliant food .staff are amazing. So kind always smiling and happy to help you .they are fantastic 👏 food is always delicious. Chefs are so hard working. They always make sure the food is cooked to perfection. They are always greeting customers with a smile waitresses are so friendly and happy to greeting you .no doubt about it .Toby carvery is my favourite place to eat .you always know your most welcome and food is delicious 😋

Our hostess Ruby took such good care of us. She sat us down, visited with us and took care of us even before our server got there. She is a positive reflection on the Toby Carvery experience.

AVOID at all costs, I called for coffee on Saturday morning it was the first time we'd been and were unaware of the parking requirements, no one asked us if we had entered our reg, never even thought we'd have to do this as it's a pub/restaurant. Needless to say we won't be going again £100 parking fee !!!

Thankyou for an excellent meal and experience. All the staff supported a large party of over 20 people with meals and drinks, Food was fresh and delicious! Chap on the servers was helpful as well as the lovely ladies at the bar and working in tables. Thankyou!!!

Lovely waitress called Ruby served our table with a pleasant smile & bubbling personality. Carver Josh was very friendly & talkative. Brilliant food as always.

Very lovely and warm / very fresh food and fast and great service from Chelsea despite how busy it was today, thank you :))

Great, amazing and lovely jubly. Went with our lass and the lads. Had the most beautiful carvery. Potatoes just right, Yorkers just the right amount of crisp. Couldn’t ask for better. Lovely atmosphere and defiantly will be here again

Went here yesterday for mothers day with my mam and two sisters . The moment we walked in it was like a cattle market which was understandable been mother's day . Well told to go in bar area while table was ready . Right they squashed 4 of us in a tight corner in the bar my mother is disabled . I went and told them I booked a month ago for the resturant she said you in resturant which I said no its bar .told her we were squahed my mam carnt walk properly and she couldn't carry carvery .to which she said will get someone to carry it I can carry it but not the point .anyway we all go up the staff serving the wS a rude one my sister asked for beef but could she have the fresh beef as the one he was cutting from was very fatty ti which he said rudly all meats fatty other beef same if I give you that ya will send it back .to which she said meat as got a bit of fat in but that will choke so.eone he just shrugged is shoulders .got dinner had to weave in and out of people stood up so not to spill. The dinner was awful flat cold rubbery yorkshire puds we left most of it . We were in for half hour and went it was supposed to be a nice afternoon.alwYs go to toby in barnsley but never again will I spend a penny in there

We visited Sunday for Mother’s Day . Had a great visit the staff all really pleasant and they all work really hard . Very busy Toby only expected this as it was Mothering Sunday but this didn’t stop the staff looking after us really nice visit lovely food . I’ve been a few times now and just have to say they all work so hard ..

We usually visit the Wakefield Toby Carvery, not anymore. Dodworth Valley is now our go to. Everything was spot on, great selection of meat and various vegetables. Everything tasted beautiful, piping hot. Abbie was attentive, always checking that everything was okay, if we needed anything to give her a shout. Lovely Sunday lunch experience. Highly recommend

Not a great experience, seems to have gone rapidly downhill. Shown to a dirty table, food underneath the table. Gristly pork, undercooked parsnips and cauliflower cheese, serving spoons too hot to touch... Delays in service, obviously short staffed and it wasn't busy. Eaten here many times before and enjoyed it but won't be returning.

We visited today with our family and our server (Abbie) was fantastic! We’ve been a few times before and the waiting staff have been rude but Abbie was fantastic! Continually checking on the table and nothing was too much, she has a friendly attitude and...

Excellent service.Big thankyou to Millie for making us feel welcome and Harry and Josh at the carvery.we had a really lovely meal from the carvery and will be back.

Breakfast buffet. Nice handy location for M1. parking good .very pleasant staff. We arrived at 10a.m .No potato/bacon/cheese. Beans were cold. Only crusts for toast.

Booked for a wake to cater for 50-60 people. We were given all the left hand side as you enter to accommodate us with the corner bar area to order drinks. The buffet and staff were amazing. Varied carved hot meats, bread cakes, cheese, salad,...

Great service busy restaurant booked as always busy and know on Sundays a booking is needed . Door staff welcoming waited a couple more minutes than the booking but expected as it was heaving . Well done you all work really hard. .

We enjoyed lunch here today. I had the carvery option - roast pork, beef and gammon and a wide variety of different delicious vegetables. My husband chose salmon and prawn in pastry. We were both delighted with the quality of the food, the choice of...

After weeks of appalling Yorkshire Puddings, we had made the Wakefield brach our new local. However, as they were fully booked on the night we wanted to go, we hesitantly booked the Barnsley branch. And FINALLY we have the signature Yorkies back. We’ve been twice...

Visited with family who were up from Cheltenham. It was very busy but we had booked so were shown to our table straight away. Couldn’t fault either the food or the service and had a very enjoyable experience. However, when speaking to a friend later...

Did a click and collect. Portion was stingy and wasn’t value for money. 2 tiny Yorkshire pudding and a couple of Pigs in Blankets. Half a portion of chocolate cake. Not worth the hassle!

Lillian and Joanne. AMAZING. Quick to be served and helped me with all my needs. Top tier service as always

Christmas Lunch Tiny prawn cocktail starter 3 prawns. Main not great cold veg and burnt potatoes , chef moaned as I asked for piece of beef without blood , he said fussy arnt you. Cheese board 2 tiny pieces cheese 4 crackers , cheese dried...

I brought my son and he was impressed with everything Good food nice atmosphere lovely staff who greeted us with a smile and looked after us-we didn't have to wait long to be served with food or drinks which were of a very high standard...

Terrible, parked here not knowing you have to register your car, it's despicable. No one in the pub mentioned this. I've received a fine and will not be going back there. They are going to lose trade.

Food was luke warm, puddings rock hard and vegetables were solid. Price increased and food gone downhill. Table after table full of pots not been cleared Cutlery was dirty

Excellent visit! The restaurant was very busy and the staff was amazing they didn’t stop . The carver was friendly all the team was busy it looked relentless It was a 50 percent offer so I would definitely recommend to book here as every time...

Had the carvery tonight and it was lovely thanks better than the one we had in Wakefield on Sunday and the atmosphere is also better in the Barnsley pub

It honestly couldn’t have got much worse in terms of service. Food as expected but oh the service! From the manager not understanding the licensing laws (or basically bare faced not acknowledging them) to the harassment of the server. In all 20 years of going...

Fantastic service, friendly staff, delicious food and a bargain What more do you need? Can't fault it

Excellent food as always, staff very friendly Need to book as it gets very busy The carvery price at the weekend is quite high compared to other local eateries

The food was at best warm, as well as just above cold. The utensils were the warmest part and I even burnt my hand when I picked one up to get some brussel sprouts. Then when I sat down, the table wobbled.

great service from charlotte today, she was very helpful and polite. The food was great. Customer service was excellent overall.

Lovely welcome and quickly taken to our seats to get settled in. Quick service if ordering drinks and food. Top quality meats and trimmings to offer. Our server Millie was very efficient and catered to all our needs. Lovely visit and lovely food.

Great breakfast, plenty of choice and great service from our waiter Luca. Nothing was too much trouble

Great food carvery was nice guy on carvery was helpful and chatty nice to see someone happy at work! Lady who served us was great helped me with my allergy.

Lovely carvery Friendly staff Looking smart and Halloween inspired which we loved. Food was hot and the carvers serving super friendly and polite. Thank you to our server Grace and Chloe .

Lovely food at an affordable price with lots of choice. Chelsea was a brilliant waitress and very attentive.

Had a roast a while back. Potatoes were burnt. Submitted a review on Google reviews, got called a liar. Just coming back to say I didn’t lie and it cost me £30. Comes back to haunt you.

Although the restaurant was good and meal fine,I didn't like it when small children were allowed to run riot ,and parent dressed in night clothes ,don't expect black tie dress code ,but people shouldn't be allowed in if not dressed appropriately

Great evening meal. Served by Charlotte who was great as always :) good price for 2 courses. Will be back soon

Absaloutely gorgeous and all the staff are very friendly would recommend to anybody the service was second to none would come back time after time

From the minute i walked in i was greeted on the door by a lady who was very rude, appalling customer service skills.Me and my friends were pretty much pushed out of the way and told to sit down.The food was extremely cold and the...

Ordered a takeaway from here. I wasn’t impressed with the small meat portion….and small bits of beef rather than slices. I like how the takeaway gravy and pudding is separate and pigs in blankets, nice veg but if I was inside then restaurant I would...

We all had a carvery and I must say everyone really enjoyed it, excellent service from the staff, table's were spotless really clean with a great atmosphere, thank you.

Usually excellent however the past few times the Yorkshire puddings have been either very small or if normal very hard .. they are nothing like they used to be .. today the chef hacked rather than carved the joints ..

The only good thing about the whole experience was the taste of the meat. However, the portion of meat was terrible , to the fact when the carvery guy thought I just said gammon he put me 2 thin slices on but once he had...

Poor selection and little portions of meat. Very chaotic atmosphere. Not to its usual standards. I used to go regularly but recently it’s seems to be tight with meat and the veg is poor and not to its usual standard. Half empty dry vegetables

I’ve been coming to this Toby for years but it’s seriously gone downhill, the Wakefield one is much better. I don’t know what’s going on with your Yorkshire puddings, but they’re not supposed to be flat! I don’t know how you can bring them out...

Seen similar reviews here on the parking charges now imposed on customers to Dodworth Valley, like those before I too have been here on numerous occasions and had no parking issues, as I was attending for a working breakfast meeting I didn't give it any...

Everything was rock hard eggs was really overdone. Bacon too hard sausage wasn't nice,Yorkshire pudding flat, the whole lot wasn't nice there was a lot of people who left there too

Unfortunately we didn't enjoy our visit to this Toby Carvery. Although we had pre-booked a table, we had to wait half an hour for our table to be ready. When we finally got to our table, we had to ask for clean cutlery because ours...

Booked a table, arrived on time to be told earlier people had arrived late so my slot had been pushed back. I do not care about this, I booked my time because that worked for me. If others arrive late they need to be told...

Went for a beef carvery. The beef was inedible. Chewing gum. They charged me for the vegetables only. Toby slicery/mashery. Lowest common denominator. I'm not looking towards another Toby. Give me Farmhouse Inn any time.

I have previously been a big advocate for this Toby Carvery having enjoyed many meals there since it opened many years ago now. Tonight was the worst meal by far. The Yorkshire puddings used to be the Showcase of the meal but are now much...

Avoid Toby at Dodworth in Barnsley at all costs! I have been charged £160 (which has been reduced to £100), for parking in the carpark next to Toby. I entered my registration details (within Toby's), as I have done every other time and yet, I...

I have eaten here often and is is always a cheap, cheerful meal. Not today. The meal was as good as it always is. The service was shocking, We sat down with our meal and Ruby our waitress came up and said ‘did you go...

Pleasant atmosphere but limited menu if you wanted anything other than Carvery. I ordered tomato soup which was Lovely, followed by a Yorkshire pudding roast beef wrap and roast potatoes. Should have known better. No matter where in the country I visit a Toby the...

A nice meal just had starters. Pleasant waitress but slow service. My friend couldn't eat her beef very fatty and grisly

Service was excellent - Very attentive from Luca, polite and professional as well as the Chef serving - excellent service all round, will definitely come again

Really nice food, and really good service by Luca, credit to the business! However I was way too full haha

Great carvery, the food was delicious. Our waiter Luca was really friendly and courteous an asset to your team

Thanks for the parking fine but unfortunately you’ve lost a lot more than we have. Thanks for your greed you’ve lost 17 regular customers a month plus family and friends we’ve told. We Did everything we was supposed to do and still got the fine....

Booked the table online for a Sunday lunch. Glad i did as very popular. Booked in, straight to the table and within 5 mins drinks order was taken. When our drinks arrived we went to the carvery which was fully stocked. Lovely meal, good veg...

Our go to place for a carvery and haven’t been disappointed yet! Top service a great food every time

Went for a drink while waiting to meet a friend. Wasn’t informed by the staff of the new parking charges and got a £60 parking ticket for parking in the car park for less than half an hour. Clearly just a ploy to rob people...

We had a pleasant experience overall, the service was excellent and the staff were friendly! The food is always amazing! Thankyou!

Shocking! £8.99 for a midweek carvery !!! NO MASHED potatoes!!! AND yet AGAIN the paying customer is not served 6ozof cooked meat ( law) !! Yes Toby you are getting away with murder!! AND !! Now when you enter you have to enter your car...

We ordered three 'Carvery for One' from Just Eat UK website for delivery on 13 August 2023. The food on arrival was cold, the Yorkshire puddings was cold and flat, the meat look dry and unappetising, and did not look like the meat we ordered....

i have been for meals at least 3 times a months since the carvery opened. i went for a carvery 11th july i was disapointed as not only did i have meal cost me £10 I also recieved parking fine of £60 i was not...

Popped in for dinner whilst visiting friends in the area. The manager was busy looking at her phone and totally blanked us, we found this very rude. A staff member was very embarrassed by this and apologised to us profusely, this was nice but the...

Clean eating area, plentiful tasty hot food. Service with a smile. Could have been a little more meat given per serving. Veg good and potatoes also good, There isn’t much else you can say, just good honest food at decent prices.

Great carvery friendly team . We dined today the staff and manager are really friendly the food was lovely and a decent price for a carvery . Would recommend visiting their is also a bar area and takeaway service too .

DO NOT GO HERE they use G24 parking and even when you put your reg in you will get £100 fine. When speaking to staff they refuse to remove the fine even with proof unless it’s their receipt. Their answer was ‘we get tons of...

Another fellow parking fine owner here. Clearly followed the instructions to put reg in and was witnessed by others The Reality is that It might have cost us £100 quid but its going to cost the carvery business more, We certainly won't be setting foot...

Very nice venue and very lovely waitresses, shame about the manager who appeared to be quite rude to her staff and customers, the food was relatively nice except from the carrots which were slightly undercooked.All in all it was a pleasant experience

£100 fine for parking at Tobey Carvery on 13th July. It's disgusting that in these economic times, companies are preying on unaware customers in this way, and it's not good enough to say as the management have done in response to the many complaints here...

Last year I gave this place a 5 star review after my birthday mea and how the staff were with us. Tonight I've amended this review to 1 star and I'll explain why below The carvery: the turkey was really dry, the beef was really...

Food was good, atmosphere was nice and staff were attentive Nice experience from start to finish would recommend this Toby The team today was Amy, Red and Eathan all did a great job a credit to the Toby brand

Visited at the weekend was really busy service was good and all the staff were very friendly and polite the food was wonderful will definitely go back there again

I'm sorry to have to leave such a bad review...... but I felt it necessary. We came here on the 23/7 evening sitting for carvery, and when it was our turn for the meat selection, my 2 sons noticed sausages (there fav) But I was...

CAR PARKING I took my grandaughter here for lunch as a couple of hours respite. Her Mum was diagnosed with MND in Jan and is really ill. We all care for her but my young grandaughter needed a break away from the house hence lunch.We...

Staff were absolutely great and the food, as always, was nothing short of first class. The meats at this place are cooked to perfection. Made our Sunday, thanks.

A disapointing eperience, so different from the week before. On arrival, we were met by quite a sullen young man on the desk. We asked if there were any tables free for lunch in the restaurant. We were told the restaurant was full, even though...

The restaurant was full, be we were told we could eat our dinner in the bar area. Fine. At least we could eat..........or so we thought. We had no trouble finding a table, took our drinks and cutlery to it, then went for the food....

Discusting cold breakfast staff were appalling so rude spoke to someone out side who said it was a standard joke how rude the staff are never go there unless you want insulting and botcholism in a bag
