About Toby Carvery
Toby Carvery is one of the best-known roast dinner chains in Britain. It is owned by Mitchells & Butlers and grew out of the Bass pub estate, with the first carvery tracing back to The Artichoke pub in Brentwood in the late 1970s. Wikipedia currently puts the chain at around 158 restaurants, though many other venues have changed use over the years.
Toby’s own website describes a carvery of freshly prepared vegetables, hand-ruffled roast potatoes, slow-cooked meats and Yorkshire puddings, plus an unlimited all-you-can-eat breakfast and children’s menus. A dedicated vegetarian and vegan menu arrived in February 2018.
How to read the prices. Prices are in £ and are typical dine-in prices. Where sources disagree we show a range. Delivery apps, airports, motorway services and London sites are often higher. See our Editorial Policy. Always confirm with the restaurant.
Toby publishes its menu per restaurant, so the figures below are indicative “from” prices from a single reviewed pub and may be higher in London, at motorway locations or for takeaway and delivery.

Vegetarian, vegan and dietary notes
A dedicated vegetarian and vegan menu has been offered since February 2018. Listed options include a meat-free carvery (V), a vegan sausage roll (VE), a broccoli and brie parcel (V) and a house salad (VE).
Toby’s main web page does not publish allergen details, so use the allergen guide on Toby’s website or in the pub. In a carvery, food is served from shared counters, so cross-contact is possible. If you have an allergy, tell the team before you order.
Opening hours, booking and locations
Opening hours depend on the pub. Many open in the morning for breakfast (served until about 11am where available) and run until late evening, but times vary, so check your local Toby on the official restaurant page. You can book a table online through the Toby Carvery website, which is worth doing for Sundays, bank holidays and December.
With around 158 sites across the UK, you will find Tobys in many town edges, retail parks and suburban pubs. Use the official restaurant finder to see your nearest.
A little history
Wikipedia records carvery prices of £7.99 in 1991, £6.95 in 1996 and £5.95 in late 1998. The weekday figure today is roughly double the late-1990s price, which shows how much the cost of eating out has risen over the years.

Toby Carvery background and how the carvery works
Toby Carvery is operated by Mitchells & Butlers, and its history goes back to the late 1970s, when an early carvery opened at a pub in Brentwood, Essex. The brand grew through the 1980s and 1990s, and between 2005 and 2009 it expanded from about 80 to 133 outlets, largely by converting former Beefeater sites, according to Wikipedia. A vegetarian and vegan menu was added in February 2018.
On its official website, Toby Carvery says roasts are served on weekdays and Sundays with all the trimmings, that vegetables are freshly prepared, potatoes are hand-ruffled and Yorkshire puddings are baked in-house. The site also mentions an unlimited breakfast, children’s menus and online table booking, but it does not publish prices, so use the reference snapshot above and your local branch for current figures.
Practical tips: book ahead for Sundays and bank holidays, which are the most popular and the most expensive slots in the price snapshot above; ask about the upgrade to a King Size plate if you want a larger portion; and check whether your local site runs the all-you-can-eat breakfast at weekends.
