Toby Carvery in Stockton-on-Tees

Excellent,efficient,helpful and pleasant staff. Roast potatoes, cabbage and cauliflower looked and tasted like it had been standing for a bit. No carrots on offer. Not the best Toby carvery I've visited but all the food was edible and I cleared my plate.

Staff very efficient and friendly. Beef a bit fatty

Decent food i go at least once a weeķ

Our daughter took us for a breakfast I'm sorry to say it was one of the worst ones we have had. eggs were terrible beans watery bacon not that nice fatty also coffee yuck hot water was loop warm.

It was very nice. The food was lovely when though we had a bit of a wait for our booked table. There was a queue for the carvery as it was very busy but the food was hot and tasted lovely.

Visited Toby Carvery Wolviston on the run up to Christmas - a family get together. From start to finish we were well looked after, very good customer service throughout. We all enjoyed our meals, we all had different meats which we thought were good along with hot fresh vegetables which were regularly changed over/fresh hot added. With it being Christmas time the place was cheerful and customers dining alongside us were happy and relaxed. We found our dining area to be clean as well as the food area. Altogether an enjoyable visit.

Love coming here, staff so friendly, service excellent, food lovely and veg always topped up.

The service was busy but we got our food within 25 minutes. Our server Gemma was always on hand if we had any queries. It was a very pleasurable lunch. I will be back

Food was bland and left a greasy coating in your mouth Pigs in blankets were inedible they tasted old dry and reheated I had to spit mine into a tissue

Had a carvery which was very tasty. Service was good, price very reasonable.

Amazing food, fantastic service as always!

Called at busy time on Sunday but not wanting a large meal we asked barman if it was possible to just get some finger type food for 7 of us. He went out his way to provide 7 massive Yorkies and 3 plates of roast potatoes and 2 bowls of gorgeous meaty gravy to dip into. All for the price of 1 starter 👍🏻 Absolutely what we wanted and needed. Brilliant service So well done 👌🏻

Great place but very busy on Sundays

Staff very friendly, served by Dean & waitered upon by Phoebe, very polite.

i love it but u should make it like carvery. i dont like mash or yorkies. but love roasties. but more pic n choose x

Always a really nice place for tea. 🙂

Extra staff on carvery to speed service

No problems food speeks for its self as you can see empty plates wouldn't want to show you it full might be mistaken for a pig lol give it a go good meals

My auntie and cousin took me and my brother for a meal on Thurs 21st November 2024 as it was my 60th birthday.... I was expecting high standards from The Toby Jug in Wolviston but to my disappointment the food was barely warm.... the sprouts were no bigger than garden peas and the roast beef was cold and full of gristle... yuk.... we all left our meals as they were stone cold and not worth eating... very upset. Will not eat at this place ever again.

Go to Toby carvery Wolviston regularly, never had a complaint about anything, food and service always spot on. Will be a regular customer in future.

Not a great vist today to be honest. Got there on time to be told table not ready. Restaurant was red hot and unbearable in cavery que. The meat was really fatty and chewy. Won't back in a hurry

Delicious food , price was good had a late full and a ice loly after

Waited 90 mins for delivery. Had one piece of tiny meat which was awful and fatty.

no fault to delivery driver. but the restaurant kept pushing back the time. ordered at 13:45 arrived at 15:15.

The meat was very hard to chew and very fatty

Very pleasant experience with 3 generations of family for celebration.

Shelly great service Great carving from Dean

I'm very surprised at how tasteless this was for a toby carvery, just absolutely no flavour at all, meat was so dry and had no flavour to it, gravy to watery, pudding was like paper, it's honestly put me of toby now, won't be going back unfortunately

Beautiful fresh food piping hot

Can't go wrong with a carvery. Nice food, the dumplings were amazing, as was the meat portions

Yes one of the best tobys i have been to

Served by Beth - great service. Brad was the carver - lovely food and service - Thank You

Excellent service staff were very friendly Gemma and was as always great at her job and chatting to all her customers. Dean was very good at his job of carving.

Lady who treated us was horrible and to other customers beef very very tough and fatty heard other customers complaining. Veg cool Gravy station messy

Paid for ulti meat carvery for the pigs in blankets, no pigs in blankets where delivered

Lovely food, our server Ellie was very friendly and so helpful!

Lovely service from Ellie. She was so pleasant and friendly. Makes the evening so much more enjoyable. Thank you. Food amazing - as always .

A lovely carvery meal, served by Brad and served by Ellie, both were very pleasant and worked hard. Nothing was too much. Very enjoy able meal.

Table booked in advance and exactly what we asked for. Couldn't fault the friendly service or the food. Desserts were great too.

This is one of the best Wetherspoons I have been to, although we have stopped going from 5 onwards and Sundays due to the queues and food running out. Staff are always friendly and helpful.

We come every year as a family of 8 and we always get in and food is always delicious, never had a problem.

Avoid at all costs! My husband and I have taken our kids here a few times after school in recent months and we’ve just each received a £100 fine for parking in their car park. I entered my details on the screen - clearly hasn’t worked. Just don’t bother - we won’t be going again.

Very quick service tonight. Chloe D was very good server. Polite, pleasant and professional.

Food was OK, its a carvery so some hot some not so! Meat selection very good, roasties not good!! Watch the car park, Do Not Forget To Enter Your Registration, £100 fine if not, fortunately we paid by card so we were able to prove we'd been, other cash customers may not be so lucky, you've been warned...

It's OK for last minute but there's miles better places for Sunday dinner.

Love it, we hadn't booked but got a table anyway, another great place if your really hungry.

Bit busy at 4.30pm on a Sunday, I'd wait till 6pm more room then.

Food was lovely, more than enough one person. Only issue it was bit cold .

Booked for a family Sunday lunch. Seated promptly and served by some lovely staff. Extremely busy Sunday lunch period. Not sure how they manage to sort out the logistics but admire their calm professional manner. Enjoyed our lunch

Chloe was a lovely server :) We had a great time

Visited toby tonight excellent as always lovely friendly waitress chloe ❤️ xx

Great service and Paul was excellent and gave us lots of meat

Chloe the server and marry the carver . Thanks lovely visit

Extremely busy due to a deal that was on

Awesome food good staff highly recommended Was served by Shelly and Paul brilliant services

I usually love a Toby carvery but, like many others, I got home to find a £100 parking fine. I parked, got out, walked in (dark) and didn’t notice the apparent many signs - perhaps because in this sort of place, you don’t expect to pay for parking in the car park right in front of the restaurant. No one mentioned the parking problem. They should when you are seated. I’m pretty peeved that an £11 meal has cost so much. I find these endless money grabs by big organisations pretty unpleasant - esp when many are tight for cash

Today Natalie was server and Harry was the carver both members of staff were friendly and helpful and helped our enjoyment of our meal. The carvery was up to the usual high standard.

Brilliant service, brilliant food and brilliant setting. Very comfy and great atmosphere

Visited the Toby Carvery today and relieved fantastic service from a girl called Gemma othing was too much of a problem for her, she was chatty and friendly it is nice to come into an establishment where the staff make time to have a conversation with you. The carver was Paul he also made conversation and made me feel welcome rather than just a number. I would recommend this Toby Carvery to friends and family and will return in the future

Ordered 3 children’s meals & got loads, chicken was hot but the vegetables, mash & roasties were hard.

Me and 3 friends came in at 9:30pm for a pint after just having been through the scary car wash at rainton, we walked in and the woman serving had said “ aw we are shut now, well you can have a drink but no food” which was fine because we only wanted a pint. She then went on to say “ we are a restaurant not a bar” and then continued to talk to someone that was infront of us and say “ well there goes my early night, I’ve finished most of my jobs but Carnt leave untill all the glasses are done” we left, she was so rude. You don’t shut till 10, what a way to lose custom.

Had breakfast this morning. Couldn't ask for more for the money. Filter coffee was delicious, pancakes, black pudding and hash browns .. (never seen this at a Toby before) staff were lovely.. only problem is .. I'm so full I need a nap!

Food was nice but had a table booked only to be told it isn't ready so we had to wait when we questioned them again they said it still wasn't ready and they couldn't give us a time it would be even though we booked online

NO TASTE WHAT SO EVER SAUSAGES TERRIBLE HASHBROWNS OVER COOKED BEANS AND TOMATOES COLD DISGUSTING

Always good food and service. Book in advance to avoid waiting for a table.

Great Carvery. Haven't been to Toby Carvery for a while, but must say the food quality and taste was the best I have ever had. In the past it has been bland at times, but this time everything was excellent. Only complaint was that the place was jam packed. But with such good food what else could I expect. Keep it up

Love Toby Carvery friendly and food is great

My first time for breakfast here. Very plentiful, self service obviously but really good value.

Food was great as always great customer service to

Ordered a carvery for one plenty of times, This time arrived with half the food missing but replaced with extra peas and carrots to make it look full.. wasn't even hot either

Missing items that I had ordered.

Pitiful ! I paid to dispose of your leftovers .

Food was piping hot, very fresh and delicious. Gravy was very hot to. Good amount of meat was also put in even though I ordered a children’s size! Fabulous

The food and the service was good. However, as a wheelchair user I needed the help of other customers to navigate my way through the queue as there's heavy posts with wide bases and ropes to manage the queue

We have just been to the Toby Carvery in Wolviston. As usual, the food is excellent. Service is top notch, especially from a young lady called Gemma, who could not be any more helpful, and always has a ready smile on her face, is very efficient, and knows both her job and her customers inside out. She is very courteous to everyone. She is the type of employee who makes your experience great, and makes you want to come back again and again. Well done Gemma, keep up the great work .

Felt like they were watching incase we either ran out the door without paying or giving are grand kids food of our plate and not paying. Dinner wasn't that great either. It's gone down hill from last time I there. Wont be going back in a hurty and expensive £75

Food was great and service was fantastic, was busy but shows how popular it is.

Staff were fantastic. Very friendly atmosphere. Food was pretty bad. Meats massively over-cooked and dry, veg over-cooked and mushy. Lack of seasoning and the gravy was mediocre at best. Yorkshire puddings were ok but, having sat under a blisteringly hot heating lamp for ages, they were also a bit dry. This was our first ever time at a Toby Carvery; unfortunately, it may be our last.

Lovely friendly service. Sherry was lovely. Excellent food, all fresh. Recommend highly

Enjoyed a great breakfast, was hot loads to choose from and the girls working were great.

Had a lovely time. I was dining alone and didn't feel lonely at all. Gemma was a wonderful waitress, smiling, friendly and approachable. And Deano the carver was a very polite and lovely too. Thank you!

Was served by Natalie what a credit she is to toby carvery she remember my 87 yr old mother in law and was so very helpful

Carvery only had last of turkey left (very little) and offered very basic sausages. Said there had been a problem with the ovens, but this must have been before our arrival and wasn't mentioned at check in. No offer of eg free drink to compensate. Veg - ok selection, but lukewarm. Starters - one good, other one ok but not hot enough. Disappointing. Won't be back.

Very good meal.we had turkey and beef.vegs were hot and tasty. Went as a birthday treat for my wife.

Is Billingham’s Toby Carvery where mediocre chefs go to die? Today (17/09/24) I had what I can only describe as the most disgusting meal I’ve had prepared by allegedly professional chefs. If I had served such poor quality food to paying customers, I’d throw myself off the restaurant’s roof. The food was over cooked, cold, tasteless and disgusting. I have literally thrown out better quality food that I’d prepared myself. Any self respecting chef would feel embarrassed serving such a poor quality food. The irony is the elderly lady in front of me asked for warm gravy, the carving chef was abrupt and rude to her saying “our gravy is always hot don’t be such a rude old lady”. Well young man, it wasn’t. My beer was warmer! I know that the Toby Carvary chain is cheap and cheerful’ but please chefs have some pride in your cooking and respect for your customers. If today was you at your best, it’s time to resign and find an alternative career. Today’s efforts was inexcusable.

First time at Toby Carvery for a long time. Food, Service and value for money all good

I sent to wrong address by accident but the driver was lovely about it. Thank him .

Lovely food, staff and atmosphere.

Items were missing from the other

Great food thank you to Dean and Chloe for great food and service.

Excellent as usual. Lovely delivery driver

Meal was delicious Staff very friendly and helpful Really enjoyed our carvery, We both had regular size with gammon and beef, the gammon was moist and tasted wonderful and the beef had no fat and it too was moist We will be back again soon Plenty of room in the carpark

I would travel further to go to a different Toby Carvery, the food here is not good.

While queueing for the carvery the vegetables were being replaced with fresh veg constantly. The food was hot, which made a change from other carveries.

Had a fabulous Sunday lunch with family We booked a table online as we know it can get busy on a Sunday By the time we got a drink at the bar our table was ready I’m so glad they put lamb on the menu now as it’s a favourite of mine Plenty of hot veg with a good choice Safe to say the four of us had clean plates There was no way I could manage desert but didn’t stop the other half and the in-laws having one Had a taste of the crumble and custard and it was lovely Safely say I could do this every Sunday but it’s not possible when the other half works away Lovely meal good food and an attentive waitress Will be back soon

Arrived this morning for breakfast at 10.20am. Stood waiting to be asked how many was in our group for over 5 minutes before being told that they would have to check what food was left before allowing us to be seated. Waited approximately another 5 minutes before being told there was enough food. Was then told to go to the bar to pay. Surprise, surprise there was no-one working on the bar to take payment so again had to stand and wait until someone eventually came behind the bar. After being shown to our seats and getting our breakfast we were then made to feel as though we were in the way as the tables were being set for lunch and they had started putting out the vegetables etc. The staff were putting out the tureens into an area which had recently had the breakfast food without first cleaning the area. In the end we did not finish our cups of tea as staff were looking at us all the time and it made us feel uncomfortable so we left. Quite the worst experience we have ever had and as we are frequent visitors we will be looking for somewhere else for our breakfast in future.

I requested no vegetable apart from cauliflower and asked for an extra Yorkshire pudding..I didn't get and pigs in blankets were inedble

Great food always a friendly smile.

Really enjoyed my Carvery Thank You. Hot, plenty of food and tasted lovely. Friendly delivery service too.

Usual carvery quality. Reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend. 👍😁
