Not been to this chain for years so ordering was a bit confusing but the staff were on hand to help. 3 under 12s who ordered burgers, chips and brocolli with bottomless drinks and ice cream. I had a Mediterranean salad with extra chicken and avocado. We all agreed that the food was good, tasty and hot where necessary. Staff were most helpful and the place was buisy but clean. Wont be the last time we visit.

Service abysmal, food not fit for purpose, family birthday meal, sunday roast ordered by two of us, very little on plate, after enquiry told they had run out. Why did they not tell us before ordering, cabbage on plate had definitely not seen water still cold. Spoiled birthday, would not attempt eating in the griffin again.

We were staying at the Premier Inn opposite. We expected it to be busy but it wasn't. We waited to be seated, we had booked a table. Somebody was eventually called to allocate a table. We ordered prosecco for fizz weekend but no one seemed to know the correct price and we were overcharged. Food was disappointing. Fish batter was soggy. Burger was just disappointing. I left most of the meal. The person in charge never even asked if we enjoyed our meal, just removed the plates. The person in charge and staff also seemed unaware of promotions advertised around the pub/restaurant and there did not seem to be any interest as to serving customers and no accommodation so far as requests for slight alteration in meals when requested. This was supposed to be a really nice start to a holiday for us but actually, it was so disappointing we won't be back again ...

I came for lunch after an ice skating session. The lady who seated us was polite, explained about the QR code for ordering. I went through the digital menu and couldn’t place my order, there was no option. I took it to the till and the same lady said she didn’t know why that was happening. There was no apology for the inconvenience. Food arrived VERY quickly. Portion size was tiny. The smallest bowl of rice ever. Broccoli was amazing. Just left feeling underwhelmed and hungry and £20 out of pocket. My friend ordered the vegan wrap as it was the only option because they’d ran out of salad. The wrap was stale. Friend was underwhelmed and £14 out of pocket. Wouldn’t come again.

Read some mixed reviews but always like to form an opinion myself. Hadn't been to a Toby in years so it made a nice change to go along with girlfriend (Valentine weekend treat!). The waitress was friendly and I have to say, the food was good - fresh and hot. Meat was carved quite thinly and they could have been a bit more generous with the amount they served us. However, there were plenty of potato & veg choices and unlimited gravy to fill our plates. Some of the sauce pots were a little empty and there were no condiments on our table but not the end of world, as we borrowed from customers on tables nearby. Enjoyed our food and was pleasantly full afterwards. Slight awkwardness over the bill as for some reason their contactless machines didn't seem to be able to facilitate rounding up the bill so we could pay an equal split (which included a tip). She could only add the tip percentage options available so we ended up giving them less than we were happy to pay! Never had this in any restaurant before as they can usually override the gratuity options and you pay whatever you deem is appropriate. Nevertheless we had a nice dinner and a pretty good experience of Toby carvery, Widnes.

only popped in for a quick butty, bacon/tomato barm. VILE. the balm was semi hard and tasted like it was on the turn, tomato’s tasted like water, and the bacon was just fat, cheapest nastiest thing i’ve ever sunk my teeth into £4.50 for that! someone’s making a profit there… anyways i took one bite and put it on the side, no one said a word or batted an eye lid, go mcdonald’s down the road guys honest.
