Lovely carvery just what we needed after all the Christmas party leftovers were goneThe food was up to it's usual good standardThe staff allowance friendly even after a hectic Christmas period they all were smiling and happyThe atmosphere was quite quiet as it was between Christmas and New yearAs we like Toby carvery we were not disappointed and felt right at homeMost definitely recommend this Toby's if you are in this areaAll ways clean and tidy but some of the decorations need a bit of love and attentionVegetarian options: Not a vegetarian so don't look at that part of the menu but it does look like it has a fue things onDietary restrictions: Ask when you go in and also when you are ready to order you are asked again if you have any allergiesWheelchair accessibility: Yes it has disabled parking and wheelchair friendly access even for the carvery the space is wide enough and staff offer to come with you too hold your plate if you want

Upon arrival got a warm welcome for Sunday lunch by waitress only to see a very young man preparing drinks to sneeze over the drinks that he was ready to serve wiping his mouth with his hand. Shown to our table with no instructions of do we help ourselves - pre pay a bit confusing however I was asked if we wanted drinks to which a polite decline was offered. The beef was fatty and cauliflower cheese was under cooked when asked if all was ok this was pointed out with no action taken. For £13:50 pp no value for money.

Have booked the Christmas breakfast with Santa for many years now. Last year there was a marked downturn in the quality of the food, but decided to book this year hoping it was a one off due to having a late breakfast.Sorry to say, same issues at 08.45 food was to say the least dried out and not very nice. BANG AVERAGE in my view...all 8 in our group said the same.We decided afterwards that we will go somewhere else next year.Just a point re staff, very rude to my daughter who asked for black pudding as tray was empty only to be curtly told, it will come when its ready...ten minutes passed and a new tray was put out. Really poor as rest of food on the plate was getting cold.

Perfect place for a Sunday lunch through the week. Very reasonable and always accommodating with a table when just turning up. Love the roast dinners here especially the cauliflower cheese.

One of the better toby carveries in sunderland. Nice cosy atmosphere, nice staff and carvery is mostly always nice with just the odd time the gravy is to thin , condiment sauces watered down (must be if they are running out) or dry macaroni cheese.

Food, and service was excellent! The only bad point was the door coming into the restaurant, the"arm" on the top of the door that shuts the door slowly must have been broken and every time someone came in, which was quite a lot, the door was slamming and it was really loud. Maybe either fix the arm or put rubber lining inside to door to lessen the noise of the door slamming.Parking: Great that parking was free for diners but need to pay if not dining

Absolute nightmare again... this is the 4th time I've ordered lunch to take home and the 4th time the order was wrong with items missing or even meals missing!This place has gone downhill fast since the Toby chain took over the Britannia... not enough staff, food terrible (eg. rock hard cauliflower) and a lack of organisation.I'm now going to the Grey Hen. The Toby management should visit there and see and taste how it's done .

A nice start to the day but I think the place could do with a makeover. It looks alot dated. I'm still trying to work out why yorkshire puddings was on the breakfast menu. I did like the diced potatoes with cheese the bacon could be more crispy but otherwise yeah it filled me ready for a day's work

Disappointed with the carvery today!Flat soggy Yorkshire pudding very little meat and the veg was all over the counter tops. It wouldn?t take much for one of the waitresses to keep it clean and tidy, it was very off putting when try to put some veg on your plate.

The best carvery I have had for a long time. Excellent selection of meats and vegetables all beautifully cooked. Service exceptional.

Service was excellent, staff were welcoming and friendly which made for an enjoyable night. Food was presented excellently with the meats juicy and served in a great atmosphere. We were an adult party celebrating 45 years of marriage so needed a quiet evening out without any grandchildren or great grandchildren around. Every member of staff were very attentive and friendly which also made for an enjoyable evening. Will definitely be going back there is plenty of disabled parking as well as general parking right next to the building. Great time had by us all 10 out of 10.Parking: Plenty of disabled parking right next to entrance of building
