"The Toby concept of Carvery dining is excellent and the Food provided was of Good value and choice. For Customers unfamiliar with the Concept there needs to be Clearer description within the Menu and more so Clear descriptions of Options for those Customers who do not want a Full Carvery dining experience. The Online Booking process was very Good and followed through with Confirmation and Reminders up to the Actual Booking date. On the Evening of the Booking the Toby clearly advise all Customers to Wait to be seated although there was no one in attendance. When confirming the Reservation the Table was not Ready and the Manager had to clean and set up the Table. At the Table the Drinks order were taken and some questions asked of the Manager who said a Server would follow up with our Order. The Server took the Order and we received both Drinks and the Order however after that we were left. The Toby was not overly busy but staff seemed to be busy and no real commitment to Customers seated. The Carvery is mostly self service and we probably bucked the trend by having Sandwiches however Customers should still receive attention. We all loved the food but found it quite soleless in its atmosphere. The Group of 5 Females meet on a Regular basis and were looking for a close to the Motorway meeting place for our meet ups however for us the Toby did not get our full Thumbs up."

"This is usually our family’s Italian restaurant of choice to meet up at as we all like the food it’s conveniently placed. However, on Saturday evening just gone we experienced the family from hell right behind us they just took it upon themselves to shout and scream at their kids, let the kids bounce up down on the seating , run around and adults could not care less, with the noise just getting louder and louder. The staff didn’t seem to bother about it , and proceeded to shout at us extra loud to deliver our meals as they couldn’t hear themselves think with the noise !! And seemed to be annoyed that we couldn’t hear what they were saying ??? Erm …. So why get annoyed at us. My parents who are elderly really couldn’t wait to leave which is so wrong when it was a special birthday celebration Our daughter who needs special dietary requirements couldn’t be heard when she ordered and we ended up with a problem with her meal surprise surprise ! Because we were tucked around the corner at the back no one came to check on us and towards the end we couldn’t get any attention at all Then what a surprise, who is playing in the car park next to a very fast main road in the dark) , are the kids from hell who were behind us and there was a youngster who could have easily run into the road in the dark ! But no one was checking on them ! There was one young man waiter was particularly polite and helpful I must say who stood out . Thank you to him My mum left her meal which was a special which arrived on a sizzler plate as she said all the meat was tough and my dad said the duck was overly fatty The rest of the meals were fine Yes we left a decent tip as it’s what we do but it wasn’t an enjoyable evening"
