About This Pub

Ah, let me tell you about Toby Carvery in Loughborough – it's one of those places that really hits the spot for a proper British roast, isn't it? From the moment you walk in, the staff are just brilliant, all smiles and eager to help, which makes the whole experience feel warm and inviting, like catching up with old mates. The food's a standout too; those roasts are cooked fresh every day, with juicy meats and a solid selection that includes breakfast options and even vegan dishes, so there's something for everyone without breaking the bank. It's dead affordable and perfect for a casual get-together. On the flip side, though, I've heard a few grumbles about the veggies being a bit bland – nothing a quick shake of salt can't fix, but it's worth noting if you're picky about seasoning. The atmosphere can feel a touch worn out, and it might be a bit nippy inside on cooler days, plus the toilets could use a bit of a spruce-up. Overall, with such positive vibes from the crowd, it's still a solid choice for a relaxed meal, as long as you go in with realistic expectations and focus on the good bits.

Cons
  • Some of the veggies can be a bit under-seasoned, so you might need to add a sprinkle of salt to get them just right.
  • The atmosphere feels a tad run-down in spots, which can make the place seem a little sad or dated.

We were greeted by liv who was lovely and took us to our table. Lucy who served us was very friendly and helped us with our drinks order. The young man who was carving, Ed was very talkative and had a smile. The Scottish lady, Lynn asked us how the meal was and if she could get us anything else.

Who doesn't love a roast dinner? For me the veggies are under seasoned but I get I'm old shool and always had veg cooked in salt water. A few shakes of the salt cruet soon adjusts go my taste but overall, a lovely meal and good value.

We had a wonderful lunch today at Toby. Came for my uncles birthday, and the three of us really enjoyed our carvery’s. We have all said that this Loughborough branch is our favourite (we have been to many throughout the country!). Waitress from Skipton (forgot to ask for your name!) was absolutely wonderful and chatty.

We went here for lunch. The staff were very welcoming and polite. The food was also great. The atmosphere was kind of sad and run-down. It was pretty cold in there, too.

Popped in for a breakfast 😋 all good!! The food was fresh and hot, and the bacon was crispy. Staff were friendly and helpful. There is nothing better than Yorkshire pudding for breakfast. My only snipe is that the toilets could do with a lick of paint. They are looking a bit shabby.
