Toby Carvery’s Standard or King Size Carvery is the chain’s core roast dinner offering, sitting alongside pub-grub rivals like Harvester and Hungry Horse. It’s aimed at anyone who wants a familiar British roast without the faff of cooking and washing up, with the main draw being the carvery counter: you choose your meat and load up your plate with veg and gravy to suit your appetite.

Standard vs King Size — which should you pick?

Go Standard if you want a classic roast that won’t leave you waddling; it’s the sensible choice for a weekday lunch or lighter dinner. King Size is for bigger appetites and tends to make more sense if you’re skipping starters and pudding, as the extra portion turns it into a properly filling meal. Either way, the “build your own plate” format is what makes Toby different from a fixed roast served from the kitchen.

• Standard Carvery: better for smaller appetites or quicker meals.
• King Size Carvery: more food on the plate for hungrier diners.
