Toby Carvery - Carlisle

Food was lovely but the only criticism I have is that the area where the meat is cut I feel should be wiped down regularly as it does not look appealing.

Table was ready for us starters and main courses were good service also good

Surprisingly disappointing. We had the carvery and there were no Yorkshire puddings or gravy. When the Yorkshire puddings were ready they were inedible. The staff were pleasant as always and the desserts that were available were very good.

Excellent meal. There were 10 of us including 3children. Our waiter looked after us very well.

Dining was very nice .except run of beef..

Booking was excellent - food couldn't be faulted, although I've never experienced a Carvery in Scotland where you couldn't go and get a second helping even if only a few more vegetables.
Service was very slow, after being shown to our table we were virtually abandoned as the waitress allocated to our table had not arrived in for her shift at that point. No-one even as much came to offer us drinks or even explain the situation regarding staff. The ladies toilets had no hand wash soap and considering this was early lunchtime I felt it was inexcusable. It was reported to the staff at that point and on returning to the toilets prior to our departure there was still no hand wash soap.

Good service

Overall the meal was very good, vegetables were nice and hot, but stuffing was very dry, meat was very tender.

Very good as always

Excellent
