This spot was great to sit and enjoy the lovely meal. The food was amazing, the meat weren’t too chewy and it was generally a really nice place to eat. Definitely coming back

Food was lovely. Our server was lovely and the lady who welcomed us. However , the man doing the carvery was extremely miserable and rude.

The waitress who greeted us was really friendly and welcoming, we had a Groupon for 2 course each. I had the garlic bread with cheese for a starter, followed by the carvery, my wife had the carvery and a honeycomb Sunday. The garlic bread was lush, the carvery was ok, however the beef, pork and turkey were overcooked, the gammon melted in the mouth and was amazing. The Sunday was delightful!

Came here whilest staying at hopton haven. Staff were great, got us in earlier than our scheduled time. The man who served us was funny and nice. Reasonable prices. 5 meats available, really tasty. Didn’t think I would come back to Toby after past experiences, but this was really good and has changed my mind!!
