Toby Carvery Southend - Southend-on-Sea

The Toby carvery Prince Ave, Southend, is a great place to go for a good carvery. One point In would make is that all the veggies seemed to be saturated in oil/butter and would be helpful if they were not as some people like myself cannot digest oils/butter easily due to surgery. The new manager ROB is charming and polite, great people skills and it was his first week. Don't change, Rob, You are a great asset. There was a problem with the printing of receipts/bills and one or two people waiting too long either to pay or receive a receipt. One customer was told that the bill could not be split into two separate bills.

Very nice busy and bustling place. Food good. Pleasant staff although rushed off their feet. The only thing I would like to draw attention to is the ladies toilets were dirty, some broken, no loo roll in some and others left much to be desired. maybe someone could be allocated to do an hourly/bi hourly check/replenishment of loo rolls etc during busy times

Food was like warm,vegetables dried out so we were not overly impressed and table service was nowhere near usual standard

Great service, great food and friendly staff! A bit of a distance from the serving area, otherwise excellent! The Toby Roast is one of my favourite places to eat!

I'm sorry but last night they were short of staff which ment food was so slow there was too much play between staff then work done and the heat was over wealming so uncomfortable it was we had our food which was lovely but we could not socialise because of the heating must of been on too high and no air circulation which I almost fainted so once we ate we left with no desert. I've been there many times that was not nice... I wanted to be honest
