Family's chaotic Toby Carvery visit where customers stormed off due to huge queues
Hungry customers were forced to abandon their plans for a Sunday lunch as huge queues developed outside a Toby Carvery.
Emma wrote: "The staff trying to manage the situation looked most stressed of all though and did their best to explain that 'there was a backlog' - caused in part by people staying at their tables too long."It didn't seem to wash and customers were soon discussing between themselves about the most likely reason for the delay, which in our case lasted around 20 minutes before we got seated.
Emma praised the staff for remaining calm and revealed she 'pitied' the poor soul working in the kitchen who appeared to be celebrating their birthday going by a banner on the wall. "Having lived with a chef for the last 20 years, I know how brutal the catering industry can be," she added. "We probably picked the busiest time to visit and overall the food wasn't too bad. But it's not an experience I want to repeat in a hurry. It's more of a treat having a Sunday dinner at home, if I can persuade the chef to cook that is.
