Carvery buffet in restaurant
The centerpiece of "Toby Carvery Sheldon" is the carvery buffet, where guests can assemble their portions directly at the counter. Particularly popular is the slow-roasted beef, coated in a rich beef fat glaze and known for its juicy tenderness. The turkey with a savory sage and onion stuffing is also a highlight, often served with plenty of gravy and the quintessential Yorkshire puddings—light, crispy, and an essential part of the experience. The side dishes play an equally important role: the roast potatoes are hand-ruffled to guarantee extra crispiness, and the seasonal vegetables, whether steamed or roasted, provide a colorful and fresh selection that rounds out the plate.
Vegetarian options at restaurant
In addition to the carvery, there are also creative dishes that expand the menu. The "Ultimate Roast Dinner Sandwich" is a modern take on the classic, combining various meats, stuffing, and even mac & cheese in a soft bun—a treat for those looking to try something new. Vegetarians can enjoy the "Mushroom & Ale Pie," a hearty pie filled with mushrooms and ale sauce, encased in flaky pastry and served with rich gravy. For a sweet finish, the "Chocolate Fudge Cake" is a favorite, a moist chocolate cake served warm with vanilla sauce, making for a perfect conclusion to the meal.
Breakfast buffet with Yorkshire puddings
The breakfast offerings are another attraction. Guests can indulge in an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring not only bacon and sausages but also Yorkshire puddings with bits of bacon or fruity compotes—an unusual yet popular addition. Complementing this are coffee drinks that can be flavored with caramel or vanilla, making for a welcome morning treat.
