Toby Carvery in Worthing

The best roast I've ever had in a Toby carvery ever!

Great experience! Tracy looked after us very well, she was kind, attentive and fast!

It was very busy so we were directed to the bar area. All 3 of us are quite disabled. Liz was great and explained the savings to be had on the 2 course offer. She was very kind, good humoured and extremely helpful. She turned an enjoyable lunch into a real treat! Steve, our chef today was great fun, a true gentleman. He offered all of us some assistance, though I managed ok. My friends both had a full carvery whilst I had just the vegetables. I enjoyed a huge plateful, and everything was cooked how I like it best. Smooth and creamy mash, sweet peas that pooed in my mouth, sweetcorn, carrots with that little 'bite' and roast parsnips. OMG!! So soft and creamy in the middle, cooked right through, but with crispy bits on the edges. Faultless. He made sure my pals got their plates to the table, in the bar, and was jolly and friendly throughout. Once lunch was over, we ordered dessert. My pals had ice cream, one with lemon and the other with chocolate sauce. While I had a vegan ice cream, which I was seriously impressed with. I asked Steve where I could could get decent vegan ice cream from, and he went and found me a source. I shall be off to Waitrose tomorrow! Later, as he was about to leave I had a spot of bother, I passed out, a not uncommon event, my friend explained it was ok and Steve stopped his exit, came to check on me and got me a glass of cold water. He only left for home once he knew I was ok. The young chap who relieved Liz at the bar, Miles, was also lovely. Altogether, a pleasant time turned into a remarkably wonderful event by a fun, caring, and hardworking team. Thank you, guys 😊

The meal was spoilt by the horrible roast potatoes.Why can’t they get that right ????? Is it so hard to do ?? I had been warned that the potatoes will be awful . Why is this happening ??????

Wonderful service today from our server Liz and the very lovely helpful carver Steve. The food was delicious. We will definitely come again. 5 *’s

A lovely evening, thank you to our waitress Tracy for such lovely service!

Great food. Tracy was brilliant!

Really lovely food, Tracy our waitress was so attentive and helpful.

All very friendly as usual, Liz behind the bar is a beautiful person with a cracking sense of humour. I give service a 4 because front of house when we arrived she was on her phone texting and we felt like we were interrupting her day, wasn't the best but Liz more than made up for it. Well done to rest of team

Came for some dinner with friends when on arrival we were greeted and seated straight away which was great, when approached by our server Zara she seemed to have an attitude and looked like she didn’t want to be there, in addition to this we were not asked about allergies which was concerning. When we went to get our food the carver Adam seemed nice, friendly and when asked if he could get more crackling he got it straight away. When we got to the gravy section we had realized that there was no sign for the vegetarian option, this was a problem as one of the people I was with had an allergy. I had asked if there was any coming out to which one of the other carvers replied they’re getting it ready, we had waited around 15-20 minutes before I got up and realized it still wasn’t out, I then asked a lovely waitress named Tracey who assured me it would be a couple of minutes, after I sat down again she then went out of her way and found us to tell us it was out which was great :)

Great place to go for a roast dinner and all the trimmings and also served with respect by staff

Amazing food, and very welcoming staff. Tracy made sure we were well looked after at all times!

The waiter who service us was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.

Brilliant service by Tracy 100% recommended

Toby Carvery is our Family best choice for Sunday Roast!

We had a lovely time. Tracy our server was fabulous, kind, friendly and helpful. A lovely evening

Good experience , but trying to use the website to book it is literally impossible as I normally use the other one in Worthing

Tracey at goring Toby carvery was our waitress, she was lovely, attentive and had amazing customer service skills.

Brilliant experience as always, Tracy was friendly and helpful.

I love the price the food and the staff 💪💪💪❤️

Nice food, staff a bit rushed, atmosphere is what you make it

Our server Tracy was what made this dining experience five stars - she was attentive, personable, witty, and patient with all our requests despite the restaurant being busy. Hopefully her people skills and hard work are recognised!

Been to this Toby a few times but this visit was the best. The meat was succulent and the potatoes and vegetables were lovely and hot. Great choice too and happy to see swede available. Please offer small Yorkshire. Staff were very friendly and efficient.

Amazing service from Tracy and Dave our carver was really friendly too! Will definitely come back 😊

Great food and excellent service from our waitress Tracey.

Best meal of my life, I'm 3 btw

It’s a classic Toby’s experience! Food is always hot and fresh, and the staff are always friendly. Thanks to Tracy for her lovely service!

The service was amazing however the food did let me down due to it being cold/luke warm, gravy was lumpy and the stuffing and mash was stale from being out to long. Over all was good though.

Very friendly welcome and service. Food tasty and plentiful

We were served by Grace, who was incredibly polite and patient, despite it being busy. Food was good but did see potatoes being put on top of older potatoes which was slightly offputting.

Lovely food and great service but crammed in like sardines, Me and my partner struggled to talk due to how loud and close everyone was.

Liz is my favourite. Courteous, friendly, always looking up to acknowledge guests - funny and efficient. Others could learn from her.

Lovely dinner, *Tracy* and other staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful. Many thanks

Love coming to toby , staff are amazing specially Tracy

Lovely food and excellent service by Tracy very attentive

Stopped in for a meal in the afternoon and was pleasantly surprised with how much meat was served. Emma was a lovely waitress, very succinct in taking our order. I did find the Mac and cheese to be very bland though.

Excellent meal at Toby Carvery Worthing! Our server was Tracy and she was kind, efficient and cheerful!

Lovely carvery, Emma was a great waitress, made it really easy with the kids. Thank you.

Food was barely lukewarm when it arrived even though we are less than a mile away. Yorkshire pudding even though they looked nice tasted like the oil had burnt before they were cooked so had a burnt oil taste. Cauliflower was barely cooked and was really hard. Roast potatoes weren’t crispy they were very soggy and burnt black. Only saving grace was the turkey was nice and tasty gravy, won’t be using them again as was not worth the money paid. Put most of it out for the fox.

Had a really nice experience with a super friendly waiter named Emma. Amazing service and lovely food!

Great meal, lovely service by Emma, felt a little lightheaded and was promptly brought a nice ice cold glass of water to help cool down. 10/10.

Had a lovely first meal at Toby Carvery. Lovely server Emma helped my other half when she was feeling a bit faint brought her some water over and kept checking in to make sure she was okay. Excellent service!

Tracy is a lovely waitress with good knowledge

I recently visited Toby Carvery and had the absolute pleasure of being served by Tracy. From the moment we walked in, she greeted us with a warm, genuine smile and made us feel incredibly welcome. Her friendly and professional demeanor set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic dining experience. Tracy went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect for us. She was attentive without being intrusive, always checking in at just the right moments to see if we needed anything. What truly stood out was her ability to create a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. Despite the restaurant being busy, Tracy managed to provide exceptional service with a personal touch. She was efficient, polite, and had a wonderful sense of humor, making our visit even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, as always at Toby Carvery, but it was Tracy’s service that made the experience truly memorable. She is a credit to the team, and I sincerely hope management recognises the hard work and dedication she puts into making guests feel valued. If you’re visiting Toby Carvery, I highly recommend asking for Tracy – she will ensure you have a fantastic time. We will definitely be returning, thanks to her outstanding hospitality!

5 stars for Tracy we are never disappointed with her service she is always so smiley and friendly and makes sure we have time to think of what we want before taking our order! We will definitely hope to have her again as our waitress ☺️

Great meal, nice relaxed atmosphere, Tracy was a great waitress, very friendly

Tracy was fantastic! Huge portions and delicious

Emma was great. Very helpful and attentive.

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! The food was very good, and Tracy, our server, was attentive. I would recommend.

Tracy was a fantastic server, she had the right balance of being available when needed but not being intrusive. Great service, food was fresh and tasty. Great value for money

Went for lunch, first time in a Toby so unsure what to expect. Our server was lovely, very friendly and helpful. House red was good, brother enjoyed his Guinness and the others had unlimited soft drinks. Not much left of the meat although there was a fresh joint of beef, so we all had that. The vegetables were plentiful with lots of choice, although I have to say none of it was hot, warm is more accurate, so that was disappointing. I booked a table asking for room to have a pram and they obliged with perfectly situated seating. At no point were we rushed, our server checked everything was okay, if we wanted more drinks, etc. For a very reasonably priced lunch you really can't do any better, especially as the potatoes and vegetables are unlimited if you want to go back for more. We didn't.

The waitress, Emma, was very polite and helpful x . But the Yorkshire just crumbled into powder and the hostess rolled her eyes at an old couple who wanted help, which I thought was rude

Great food and Emma our server was so friendly , Leyton the carver was also excellent and very friendly. Would come again as great service and food

Fabulous celebration meal for our preschool. Food was lovely, lashing off gravy!

Went for breakfast. Apparently unlimited. When we paid, I wasn't reminded of what time breakfast service closes. Perhaps I should have asked. So got some oily fried eggs, dry bacon and very liquid baked beans, as well as a nice potato cheese bake. There were also hash browns and black pudding as well as a large Yorkshire pudding or puddings. Looks like the Yorkshire's were baked together, but then had to be surgically separated with a set of tiny teaspoons. Unless they exploded in the oven to give this really other-worldly appearance. We turned some bread into toast in that slow travellator machine, but I'm always intrigued why there is a setting for burning the toast. And why, on this day, despite the protective cover, that the burn setting was chosen. I have yet to meet someone that intentionally toasts a slice of bread until it is black, and I'm 60 years old! And yet here we were - dark black toast produced. In the absence of staff, we simply sat down with our offerings, but had there been some staff bobbing between tables, we would have spoken up. Meanwhile , on the other side of the display, we were fortunate to get a coffee from the full pot. Many of the tables were full of discarded breakfast remains from previous diners, so staff were somewhat slow to collect these. So finally, after some eating and chatting, I noticed it was 11.10 and decided on another coffee with an accompanying slice of toast with marmalade; but to my surprise, the coffee pot and toast machines had gone. Meanwhile, turned around to see the first carvery roasts of the day, that made it to the serving area. Where I guess they sit under the lights to dry out until lunch starts at 12. I rarely if ever, visit a Toby carvery for breakfast because we don't have one near where I live, and only did so today because Octopus Energy gave me a voucher. So it's a pity that serving times weren't mentioned at the till point, or that staff didn't sweep round with a verbal reminder, while collecting dishes from the nearby tables. Although I got one free breakfast for my party, via the exorbitant cost of my Octopus gas and electricity supply, I did expect to be able to get one more coffee under the Toby Unlimited Coffee scheme, but that was an unfulfilled dream. Next month, I will try breakfast again; otherwise the carvery in the afternoon.

Great choice of meats and vegetables. The honeycomb ice cream dessert was extremely good too. We had Tracy as our server and she was very quick and efficient, service with a smile.

Great food, good friendly service, and excellent atmosphere

Steve the Chef took made us feel very welcome and carved excellent meats. This Toby really is at the top of its game. Thank you Steve.

Had a lovely visit to the George carvery as usual, attentive and friendly service from our waitress esmé and good hot food, we shall be back soon!

Charlie our server couldn’t have been more attentive and it was nice to have a proper conversation with Antony, our carver. Both members of staff are a credit to the company Only downside was table felt crammed in - table 18

Me and my mum come here quite often and more time than not we are served by Esme who is simply exemplary. Nothing is ever too much and always has such a cheery disposition. A really asset to the team.

Esme. Was fantastic as usual can't wait to come back thanks 👍 no

Three of us went for a birthday meal, carvery followed by pudding. Always have a tasty and filling meal in a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Thanks Goring carvery staff.

Typical of the brand. We had a party of 20 so were given an area just for us. Their breakfast menu was good and a reasonable price. Staff were excellent.

The food was amazing, the meat was tender and the roast potatoes were very Crispy. Both me and my partner have allergies and the lady who came over to help us Joan was beyond helpful checked everything we could and couldn't have especially as my allergy is rear but she made sure it was all safe and knew what we could and couldn't have

Good value, good food. The guy serving the carvery was fantastic, cheerful and friendly to every single customer, Nice to see someone doing their job happily.

Great place good food and service

Amazing food in a family-friendly atmosphere, generous portions, and lovely staff! All so wonderful! Thank you xx

Great carvery as always: Tracy is a lovely waitress!

Good food and value for the money

We had a wonderful time we will be back great staff and food.

Had a lovely experience with Toby Worthing, lovely food and a great selection and lovely service with Tracy, nice and professional service recommended going.

Tracey was our waitress and looked after us from the moment we came into the restaurant . Made us feel very welcomed.

I love Toby carvery. Always enjoy a good roast. Tonight they were on point. Everything was tasty. Beef and turkey roast with all the veg I could fit on the plate covered in gravy galore. Tracey was our waitress tonight and she friendly and efficient as always. Adam who carved our meat was lovely as usual, always jokey with us. I would also like to mention Nicole and Esme who work there too. They have been our waitresses many times are are always so friendly and always helpful. Toby feels like home.

Toby is a place a large group can go and eat cheap food with plenty of space……but not a lot more to it. Even though you book they never seem fully prepared and it feels like you’re in a low budget establishment. (I’m not a snob! But it’s cheapskate!). The porridge and strawberries were nice! Most of the group had the full English breakfast and I didn’t hear them complaining. If you like quality, good service & ambience……it isn’t for you. Have the right expectations and you’ll be fine, if not, full!

Collected a carvery lunch today against my best judgement after my last encounter? Fool me , potatoes must have been cooked last Wednesday?Meat scraps , paid for two Yorkshire's and got 1? Food cold and miserable ! Never again crooks ,

Thank you Tracy for the excellent customer service you gave. Smiles and friendly. Made our experience much better because you were attentive.

Kindly gave us a well positioned table as I requested. Selection of 5 meats was good. 2 types of roast potatoes. Good veg selection. Lovely gravy. Big Yorkshires. All tasted good Maybe the carrots were a bit hard would be the only negative I could manage.

It was surprisingly nice - really enjoyed it

Oh dear what has happened here. Booked our usual table just inside the door for my grandaughters birthday. The idea was she was to be surprised by her friends without disturbing the rest of the customers. The guy on the door said the table was meant for 5, and as there were 4 of us we couldn't sit there despite there only being 3 people just finishing sitting there at the time. He said they were very busy, but half the tables were empty. We ended up being poked away somewhere else so the big surprise didn't happen. The service was so slow. After finishing the first course and waiting over 15 mins we had to find a waitress for our second course. Despite going to this restaurant every week for a very long time, maybe a friday is not the day to go. Think we got rather settled with the usual staff and today these others weren't very accommodating. Not sure when we will return.

Absolute dire ... I went there for a breakfast with my partner . Price was great but the breakfast absolutely disgusting = no notable vegatarian options available ..baked beans watered down and cheap...chopped tomatoes appeared watered down too ...the hash browns were so tough you could've bounced them off the walls ....!! My boyfriend enjoyed his egg ...however the bacon was undercooked . And who serves Yorkshire puddings for breakfast ?? They do apparently...? And with bacon inside the Yorkshire pudding ?! When I politely complained *and I never complain usually when I go out for food * about no vegetarian sausages I was told *if you want some you have to ask the chef and he will make some * = that's fine but there is no signs saying so !! Won't be returning ... grim!! When I politely

First time in a Toby Carvery. I doubt I would go again. All the veg was overcooked, Mac cheese and cauliflower didn’t taste of cheese at all and the Yorkshire pudding looked impressive but had no flavour. Meat, potatoes and gravy were nice.

Had a lovely family meal. Table was ready and service and food was very good.

I always eat at The Toby when I’m in Worthing.

Appears to be a nice pub, with friendly staff and the food was good on the Friday lunchtime we visited. A chip-free pub on all accounts, which makes a nice change. Sadly during the lunchtime we visited there was no hand soap, and the hand dryer was broken, in the gents toilets. The carvery is popular so be prepared to wait a good 10 or so minutes during busy lunch times. Sadly not the easiest place to park if driving, as spaces are limited, especially during busy periods.

Emma was absolutely lovely. Came here on Sunday evening with 4 of my friends. We each had a carvery and were one of the last tables in. The staff behind the hosting station couldn’t have been more attentive at making sure we got fresh Yorkshire puddings and roast potatoes. Emma ( know her name from the receipt) was great at her job and couldn’t have been more helpful. Thank you for being so hospitable. She is an asset to your company.

Fantastic food and fantastic service!

Excellent night at the Toby the evening Esme was absolute champ with the service and all her recommendations for food were spot on. She really knows her stuff Would absolutely visit again soon

The hash browns eggs and black pudding was hard very poor

nice enough place, food is cheap, been here many times

honestly just a wonderful time here, staff were fab, food was delicious and came out in record time. a perfect experience :)

This place is going downhill. Make you pay for your breakfast before you get there to find out there is nothing hopefully someone looks at this and thinks we need to fix this. Please avoid at all costs. Breakfast is a pile of cold crap.

Has an amazing experience at Toby carvery in goring with my partner the service was amazing had an amazing waitress named Charlie who was happy to assist thank you

Had a lovely afternoon lunch everyone was very accommodating to myself and my partner. Our waitress was Charlie and she was wonderful. Very polite and attentive and excellent customer service. Would definitely recommend

2 of us went here yesterday morning for our first Toby breakfast.It was the first morning of an offer so busy but not overly. The whole experience was chaotic,amateurish, anything but relaxing. But it was good value for money.The food itself was ok but not great.Some horrible slimy diced potato dish (tepid).Bacon ok if you fished around for good bits.Eggs very small,very underdone and swimming in oil.Beans scarce in a large bowl of just the juice..needed refilling.Sausages fine as were mushrooms and tinned tomatos.Hash browns bit tough but ok. Yorkies didn't contain the diced bacon or whatever it said on the menu online,clearly fromthe carvery the night before.Help yourself to toast and drinks..both fine.The problem is(as a staff member told me)there's not enough staff and they are penny pinching too.Butter ran out twice.Same with Marmaade.Eggs ran out and so did milk.No small bowl or cup or saucer to put used tea bags in. You get given a knife and fork and a mug and a teaspoon when you pay in advance at the bar.I dropped my knife.There is no spare cutlery at all..chef told me to go to the bar where there is a queue of people arriving.No spare mugs if you want a coffee and then a tea (free refills).And on top of all of this there is absolutley no one around to get anything topped up ,same with hot food. I yelled at the top of my voice over the hot food through to the kitchen.The whole restaurant looked up (no,really) but it took 3 goes for someone from the kitchen to come out to tell them there were no eggs.So if you're not too fussy and you make the most of the free refills its not to bad a place to spend an hour or 2.

Wouldn't recommend as the Carvery was very disappointing. Cauliflower cheese was hard & under cooked. The roast potatoes were over cooked & tough. The Gammon was dry & yorkshire pudding was tasteless

Unhappy with the service. Needed a passport to have a nonalcoholic beer at a restaurant despite the law being able to drink an alcoholic drink with a meal at the age of 16. The manger could not comply with the law as he was worried he may be sent to prison for serving an 18 year old a non alcoholic beer. This company have gone above and beyond the law of the UK to limit the simplest of freedoms and enjoyments in the manner in which they feel. The liberty of exercising individual rights are being eroded at every step and even just by sitting down with a family and having Sunday lunch is being restrained to another’s personal views.

Came for breakfast with 2 friends Food was delicious and coffee always topped up and hot. Staff from the kitchen was always in and out checking the food wasn’t running low Wasn’t too busy so me and my friends could have a lovely chat without having to shout Will definitely go again

Came in here the other day with my partner and are friends to come in and be told that it was fully booked and we couldn’t just walk in. This was fine as we hadn’t booked. We thought we would go online and see if there was any spaces to eat later on in the day only to be surprised to be able to book for the time we arrived. After booking and walking in to the same man and saying we had booked, we got seated. He was very snappy and also did this with another family. Odd experience

As on all our previous visits everything was great, food really fabulous & service exceptional, very friendly staff.
