We were looking forward to a mid-night birthday treat. We were aware that the pub had reopened following renovation, but in all honesty, there wasn't much difference, still the same old furniture. For a mid week night, it was packed! We were stuffed into a corner table with other tables around us all sides. There wasn't much room and people chair's backed onto our table. As it was fully booked, there was nowhere to move and hard to get past other occupied tables. After a long wait in the carvery queue (again this was mid week, not even a Friday or weekend) we sat down to eat. The gravy was a bit watery and thin. The turkey, don't know about the other meats, seemed a bit poorer quality than what is usual. All in all, it was okay. Didn't expect it to be so busy and have a long wait. Uncomfortable at table and food a bit worse than what it is like usually here. Staff were friendly enough on our visit.

Came here with my Grandson this week after walking the dogs. Lovely atmosphere and very warm inside. Team are affectionate to dogs which is rare nowadays and the food was Yummy. Yorkshire could do with some work as they were a bit doughy but gravy was smooth an my sandwich was scrumptious. I will certainly be popping in more now it has had its full do over. I must say it is definitely one of the best looking pubs on the wirral now. Function room also looks amazing, very bright and secluded, allowing for personal space from the restaurant. 👍

Avoid at all costs, paid £13.50 for a roast dinner, for 1 slice of extremely fatty gammon, frozen garden peas, sloppy overcooked carrots and rock hard parsnips all the food looked dry and overcooked, there were flies all over the gravy’s and sauces so we avoided these altogether. Has to be the worst carvery I have ever tried, will be avoiding at all costs in future

We I went up to the food counter there were dirty plates so I passed to the cook and informed they were dirty and he got a cob on because I passed them to him. Myself and my son got our food and my wife went up to which there was a couple Infront of her and there was no plates left so they informed the chef which he had another cob on and replied 'I'm busy ask someone at the bar' to which no one was at the bar. His attitude really stunk the place out and it wasn't even busy at all. For a hand full of people to be in and him to be an arrogant AH, he will soon be cheeky to the wrong person

reluctant to write a negative review, as I have been here before, and used the carvery take away which where all good, but this visit really missed the mark. We where celebrating a OAP birthday. On arrival, we asked for a bright (some tables are in an area with no natural daylight) seating area, and not a booth as the OAP would struggle with the soft low seating. After waiting to be seated, the barman shouted over did we have a booking, the restaurant was less than 1/4 occupied, so wasn't busy. We asked to be seated in the area opp the bar which was nice and bright, although two other parties where eating in this area he said we couldn't sit there as table service wasn't available in this (10 foot away) area. We where a party of 5, and asked that we didn't get a booth due to being a bit cramped for 5, and the OAP situation, he said we where in a booth and directed us to it. By now, I'm starting to wish we had booked at one of the vast selection of other venues in the area! Seeing a number of empty tables we asked if two could be pulled together, he said no, luckily another staff member said no problem and pulled them together. We all opted for the carvery, for ease, two of the party ordered starter's. 20 mins later, still no starters, they decided to join us at the carvery, with 1 meat less at it had run out (7.45pm) Back to the table, with the ridiculously large Yorkshire puddings, two returned the meals to be heated as they where cold, meat, veg and pots. So we are now eating microwave meals! Starters arrived, soup was stone cold, returned to be heated. You would think that the food being hot would be a basic requirement. Due to 30% of the plate being taken up by the yorkies, some of us returned to the carvery for veg and pots but at 8.05pm where told it was closed. You could still book a table on the app (we actually did this for fun) so if the booking could be taken, why was the food taken away. I would advise management to instruct staff that if there are diners still eating, before the food is removed, they should go round and inform everyone, if they need to return to the "limitless" food refills then at least make diners aware that its closing, also, don't serve cold food, and maybe a decent welcome wouldn't go amiss. Veg was a basic choice, beef was tough as old boots. OAP couldn't cut it, I asked for a steak knife, they don't have them and was told all the knives are the same (blunt?) Then the bill....... we had a £10 discount online voucher, presented this prior to paying, then carvery price had increased, because "that's a special offer" which it wasn't, its the same price every day, every week, so felt cheated by that. Please don't have an app that accepts booking after the carvery is finished, would I go back, I would need a lot of convincing I can get microwave roast dinners in Iceland for £2.50 each, and have sharp knives at home!

We came straight after a funeral. Unlimited Tea, coffee and soft drinks were provided, there was also full breakfast being served at the hot counter, this was lovely and hot with lots to select from. Staff were very polite and friendly and did their upmost to ensure the morning went smoothly. Facilities and restaurant were clean throughout and accessible to everyone. When I went to pay for the morning, they would not accept any payment as they had learnt our funeral was for my 29 day old grandson. I would like to thank all staff for their generosity, politeness and kindness. Thank you Toby Carvery for your kind and heartful gesture

Came for a roast on Monday night, we were seated by a lovely man who seemed to really enjoy his job and was fab; guy with a bald head if that helps. We didn't like our 1st table and he very kindly moved us and asked where were comfortable which we really appreciate. The food was perfect and our waitress Olivia was fantastic. The restaurant is tired looking but I believe it is getting a make over soon so we can't wait to return and see it! Thank you all you made our date night perfect

Dissatisfied with veg selection, it would be better if you had more variety of vegetables, maybe sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower without the cheese, parsnips and carrot and turnip Apart from the veg situation the food is really nice.

Decided on mother's day that we really wanted a roast .we haven't been to Toby for a long time so didn't know what to expect anymore . We arrived and we were greeted and seated quickly .I can't remember the name of the server but he was great .did everything with a smile. Unfortunately though , the carvery itself let it down . The child's plate had one and a half slice and and the adults plate had 3 slices . Thick slices wouldn't have been so bad but these were disappointingly thin slices . We usually got to the carvery in park gate and that's what we will do next time . We have had too good to go from Toby in the last 6months and it feels that there was more meat on that than there was on the plates we paid a higher price for because it was Sunday . So great service but meat amount isn't worth the cost

Booked ahead on line the night before for a 6.15pm table. On arrival at the reception area we were met by friendly and efficient waitress Toni who confirmed our booking. We used the hand gel available and she made us aware of their Covid requirements, and led us to our table, which was a good 2 metres from other tables. The available meal appeared to be the carvery, which we ordered using a tick-box sheet, marking our preferences. This worked out fine, and the drinks and meals arrived after about 10 and 20 minutes. Our waiter was Kenny, who was very pleasant and efficient, and who cleared and cleaned other tables as they were vacated. The table service in operation worked very well, with nobody wandering about, and we felt very safe. The ambience was peaceful, with no children present. A very enjoyable meal and visit, and we used a half-price main meal voucher. Check your drinks bill, though, as the till charged us £6.40 for an unlimited Diet Coke! This had to be halved. Will return to this Toby restaurant.

My son took me out for a drink and we was getting 3 carverys to take away 2 standard and 1 large. Girl on door and bar staff were pleasant. Carvery chef was not. An older chef came out but didnt say hello or acknowledged us.Bar staff said we could help ourselves to veg but he insisted that he does it all. He then done the large and hes0 got to cling film it but not in a nice way and when we asked for mint sauce it was another job. When we were having a drink we got told which door to go out of which was good but waiting for a taxi a couple came out of the wrong door. It wasnt busy so dont know where staff disappeared to and didnt seem to have a manager around either My first experience in toby carvery, would not like to go there when its busy. Carvery was okay. Service front and back of house doing carvery should make you feel comftable and want you to go back.

I was looking forward to having lunch at the Carvery but I noticed that although the chef was carving he was also serving the food instead of self service There was no protection from customers in front of or over the food.The couple in front had their heads directly hovering over the food on the carvery Their heads were about 5" above the vegetables whilst they selected which roast potatoes etc. they liked. There was no barrier to keep people a few feet away from the carvery.I mentioned the situation to the "Manager" he didnt understand the issue at all. He just couldn't grasp that their was an issue.Disappointed, I left without eating.

Booked a table for 7.45, got confirmation by email, only to get an email 20 minutes before saying that the booking was cancelled without any explanation. I tried to phone them but nobody answered. I appreciate that they are closing slightly earlier than normal, but closing at 7.45 is just lazy!

We have been be4 in November and stopped going as we was not happy with the service we got but omg this time was amazing nothing wrong and couldn't do enough to helpwe went to toby carvery today. We was not expecting to be served by such lovely people Lauren k was very helpful and the lady who was seating us (didn't get her name sorry it was a lady with black hair) was amazing even joked when we did. We was served by corey and si omg at last some down to earth carvers who r interested in a chat rather than rushing to the back with their friendsLovely will defo be coming back with such lovely staff

Visited last night. It was quiet but still had a few people eating. Carveries were ok. The Yorkshire puddings May have been stood for a while. There wasn’t as many veggies on offer as there wasn’t many people visiting due to recent news events. What they did have was sufficient. Was clean and tidy. Waitress was attentive. Ate a cheesecake which was very tasty.

Went here for a carvery, really wish we hadn't, the staff looked as if they didn't want to be there either. The interior is dark, dated and miserable. We were not made to feel welcome at all, the staff seemed to be in too much of a hurry to provide anything more than a basic level of service, often we had to prompt for any sort of service, and their faces said it all when we asked for a clean set of cutlery, as if it was our fault.There was no hot water in the gents, and I pressed the tap on three times and it was still cold water coming through. Also the air hand dryer did not work. I dread to think if there was no hot water for customers, what the staff were washing their hands with.It was not busy yet we had to be on the lookout for staff to ask if it was ok to head to the carvery as they just disappeared once they dumped the drinks on our table. Having not visited this place before, we did not know the procedure.The food and drink prices were overpriced but we thought the taste and presentation would reflect on this…it failed to materialise. The food was not very impressive and for a £7.29 carvery, I expected so much better.The Roast Beef was very gristly, both the beef and roasties were smothered with "beef dripping" assuming for taste but this was just like a thick salty gravy stock that was too overpowering and just made them soggy and even more unhealthier but it did well at covering up the burnt bits.The veg looked as though it had been under the lamps a bit too long, peas, carrots and pasta were all drying out. The gravy was also far too thick and salty, which was splashed all over the counter and as for the Yorkshire pudding... there is nothing worse than biting into something only to get a mouthful of cold cooking oil, it seems their recipe just soaks up the oil like a sponge. We certainly needed extra drinks after all this salt and grease intake but at £2.80 for a glass of lemonade we decided to wait until we got home as we couldn’t wait to leave.The place could do with better ventilation (some sort of extractor fan) in the restaurant area, as the greasy cooking smells adhered to our clothes and hair for several hours after leaving the place.Overall, a very disappointing experience, and we will certainly avoid this place in future. Customer service is not a priority here. I've had far better experiences in a fast food outlet.

Really poor, drinks options were rubbish average at best carvery and only Vedgy options for alternatives of which we had a vedgy chilli which was clearly out of a tin. Won’t be returning and will be cancelling a large party for next week, we haven’t been here for many years because it was bad and it will be a good few more before we return

Turned up about 12.30 found it very quiet. There was only two other tables occupied. We ordered pots of tea as it was quite cold out. The carvery was up to standard and the chef jolly. The lady that served us was pleasent and asked if all was ok As we were finishing the place started to fill up and a few were obviously regulars. We enjoyed the experience.

Food disgusting and cold...went with a few people, the food was awful, only hot thing was the gravy, the rest tasted and looked like it could have been the leftovers from the previous day.Ordered other food from the menu, that was a joke, took forever to arrive and was laced in cheese despite 5 requests when ordering for no cheese 1st and last time I will go there, revolting food.... staff incredibly unhelpful

We understand it was straight after Christmas but they should have stocked up. I could not have my mouito for various reasons. I eventually got a lovely gin. Most of us had the Carvery which was not the best. The vegetables were not cooked well. In fact ther roastieswere black. The best thing was the mash potatoes Hard to get wrong! I ordered pie and was given the wrong one at first. My husband says it was all inedible and awful.it was Brie and broccoli. This combination was very good but wrapped in too much Flaky pastry. . People who hadmeat seemed pleased with quality. The veg needed refreshing. We were there for a two year olds birthday and were allowed to use our own cake which was lovely. Lauren our lovely waitress brought us plates. She was the highlight of our visit. We felt sorry for her when she neededto check with the kitchen so otren, surely the iPad should make that unnecesssary.As a family we have not eaten here before and will not be back.

Two male staff members one serving the carvery and the other waiting on were really lovely. Female staff member at the front of the restaurant rude. Three of us went for a carvery a couple of weeks ago, early evening midweek, it was not busy at all but we were made to feel as though the place was inundated with diners! Given a table in a segregated part of the pub, diners grouped together in this area despite there being plenty of room elsewhere in the pub. Food was not even mediocre, floor around the table was dirty, bits of food all over the floor. Wouldn’t recommend and won’t be returning!

Christmas Carvery - over cooked veg that had then been left out till dried up, very unappetising and hardly warm. Very disappointing and won’t be returning. Shame as staff were pleasant.

A lovely family meal at a great price, what more can we ask for, served by Matt who couldn’t do enough for us, such a lovely well mannered young man whom it’s obvious has learned so much for such a young man. We will be back again soon.

Had many carverys over the years but never here, hands down the best quality one by far!!! Staff were attentive but not overbearing, there was not a single item of food that was under or over cooked and the value for money was excellent.

We would not return we could not all have breakfast at the same time so could not eat with our daughter, husband and grandson. Could not eat at the times we wanted it was very short staffed and food items not topped up as they ran out so constantly having to ask for things like milk, butter,bread ,juice etc on the last morning the sausages were not even cooked properly it was a right fiasco we would not return here again.

Wandered in after a bracing walk on the seafront.Loved the whole setup. The real fire was blazing away and people and their dogs were spread around enjoying food and drinks. One hot chocolate and a tea later and we were on our way.Next time we will visit for food.
