Traditional British restaurant Basildon

The "Toby Carvery Basildon" in Basildon, England, is a classic British restaurant that is part of the well-known Toby Carvery chain, specializing in traditional carvery dishes – a concept that it proudly promotes as the "Home of the Roast." It is located in a lively part of Basildon and is a popular meeting place for families, friends, and anyone who appreciates British pub culture with a focus on hearty meals. The decor is cozy and casual, with an atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional British pub: warm lighting, wooden furniture, and an ambiance that invites guests to linger. Notably, there is a generous carvery area where guests can fill their plates with freshly prepared dishes, as well as an outdoor area that is perfect for relaxed dining in nice weather.

Best carvery dishes in Basildon

Culinarily, the "Toby Carvery Basildon" represents the art of the perfect British roast, prepared daily with great care. A highlight is the "Four Roast Carvery," where guests can choose from a selection of slow-cooked meats such as beef, turkey, ham, or pork – each piece juicy and tender, thanks to the chefs' years of expertise. The "Yorkshire Puddings," freshly made in the kitchen and served crispy and fluffy, are particularly popular, as are the hand-ruffed roast potatoes, which are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Side dishes, such as seasonal vegetables and rich gravy, complete the experience and leave little to be desired. In addition to the carvery, the restaurant also offers an "All-you-can-eat Breakfast," featuring classics like fried eggs, sausages, and bacon – a favorite for early risers or brunch lovers. For a sweet finish, the "Chocolate Fudge Cake," a rich cake often served with a scoop of ice cream, delights guests.

Family friendly restaurant Basildon

The beverage selection is as varied as it is fitting. In addition to a selection of draft beers that pair perfectly with the hearty dishes, there is a collection of wines to complement the meal, as well as non-alcoholic beverages like fruity sodas or hot chocolate. The bar is a central point of the restaurant and invites guests to wind down their visit with a drink – whether after a walk or a long workday. The "Toby Carvery Basildon" is also known for its family-friendly orientation, with a special children's menu that includes smaller portions of the popular carvery.

Authentic British dining experience Basildon

The atmosphere is lively and warm, with service often described as friendly and helpful. The staff ensures that guests feel comfortable, whether through a warm greeting or assistance in choosing from the carvery deck. However, during peak times, there may be waiting times, and some guests occasionally notice fluctuations in the temperature of the food – a point often balanced out by the freshness and quality of the ingredients. The restaurant is clean and well-maintained, which enhances visitor trust and makes for a pleasant stay.

I would leave zero stars if I could. The table had spilt milk on it when we were brought to the table. There was food all on the floor. The lamb was on it's last legs, hardly any meat left on it, and they wouldn't bring a new one out. The food was freezing, and the potatoes were vile. It was overall a very disappointing meal. The first time, I've left a toby carvery, still hungry!

Very nice man at reception. Food was delicious and fresh, even got a good morning from one of the chefs. Why is their Christmas tree still up at the entrance in February though?

Food was not great but amount of meat seems a lot less than you used to get, also roast potatoes not great and vegetables overdone which is a pity for carvery - not as good as other Toby carvery I've been to in Crawley . Starters of cheesy mushrooms though were good and service was good. Pretty standard, spacious carvery and atmosphere was fine so our family group still enjoyed our visit .

I, ordered a roast dinner to be delivered. When, it arrived it was stone cold. The, food was absolutely appalling. I, ordered gammon and roast beef. There, was only half a slice of gammon,there wasn't even a slice of beef. What, I was given was mainly fat. The, potatoes were hard. Just eat, have refunded my delivery charge. The chef, who prepared my food should be ashamed of himself for delivering such appalling food, when people are paying to eat this. This, was my first time of ordering from Toby Carvery. I, should be given a full refund, otherwise it will be my last time has well. It's, only lucky I wasn't in the actual restaurant, otherwise I would have complained there and then. I, would have been better off going to a local café.
