_TI***jvThe carvery at Toby Carvery is a treat, especially the Yorkshire pudding. The staff are friendly and create a welcoming environment for all guests.
_TI***znThe atmosphere in this restaurant is lovely, and the food is usually top-notch. I appreciate the effort the staff put into making sure everything runs smoothly.
TheForkUserLovely service, lovely food. Should be clearer that it's in a (superb) retirement village, we're happy with that and will be back, but might not be for everyone
TheForkUserAmbiance, food and staff. Very friendly and lively place. My favourite restaurant owned by Thais so the food is authentic.
TheForkUserThere was a good atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming. It was great service and the food was lovely. Will definitely go back.
TheForkUserI’ve been eating at Toby Horsforth for years and have never had a problem with any of the carvery meals there. The staff have always been professional so I can’t knock anything at all.

TheForkUserHad Sunday roast. Good choice of meats, excellent portions. Very tasty. Nice dessert menu too. Best to book as was quite busy
_TI***43I had a wonderful evening at The Pine Marten, where the ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. The staff, especially Lily and Layla, were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our visit truly memorable.
_TI***dlThis place is a hidden gem! The food is always fresh and well-prepared, and the service is top-notch. I highly recommend booking in advance, especially on weekends.
TheForkUserSunday lunch today was our second meal here after an excellent prix fixe dinner earlier in the week. Everything from the buffet spread to start with to the main meal and dessert was first-rate, made even more special by the fact that the expected sirloin of beef was replaced by chateaubriand! Served pink at our request it was tender and succulent. Fullmarks to the chef and to Will our genial and professional server.
TheForkUserVery impressed. I only made the booking as i bought a brand new Car and wanted to go for an hour drive. Lets just say i will be visiting again in the very near future. The eating area behind with the sun shining down and the most tasteful food served made it very memorable.
_TI***o0I was impressed by the quality of the food and the warm hospitality from the staff. Definitely a place I would recommend to friends.
TheForkUserCame for my Mum's birthday and they made it very special staff were really friendly and really enjoyed our afternoon tea
_TI***h5I was really impressed with the value for money! The meal and drink deal for £10 was a steal, and the chicken burger was tasty and satisfying.
_TI***2xI had the N'duja scrambled eggs for brunch, and they were so delicious that I didn't need to eat again for the rest of the day! The staff were cheerful and efficient, making the experience even better.

_TI***dfWe had a brilliant time at the bottomless brunch! The cocktails were creative and the food was spot on. The service from Megan and Ash was friendly and efficient, making it a delightful experience.
TheForkUserExcellent pub, obviously loved by the locals who booked it out - so make sure you have a reservation. 6.30 seems to be when they all flock in. Our table was for 7pm so we ended up having a bit of a wait and to make an alternative choice for mains as ours was sold out. Well kept cellar - excellent beers and plenty of cocktails available. Will return when next in York
TheForkUserThe food was piping hot & delicious & really well priced on a 2 or 3 course offer. The staff were lovely & helpful. It’s was a busy Sunday lunchtime but we didn’t feel squeezed in to the next table.
TheForkUserHad a lovely lunch with family, we asked to sit in a quieter area hence we're away from view of staff in a raised area - despite us being out of view the staff were very attentive making sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely eat at Fire Lake again
_TI***d5This restaurant offers an excellent dining experience with top-quality food and exceptional service. Sophie and her team made our special occasion unforgettable!
