Service

I had a fantastic lunch here with my family. The roast potatoes were a highlight, and the service from Jasmine was top-notch. Highly recommend this restaurant!

The food was delicious and the staff provided great service. We were not keen on the new sections where we were sat. It is too high and you feel too shut off from the rest of the restaurant.

The staff were super efficient and friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable Icing on the cake? The meal in the restaurant was superb, compliments to the chef. We would definitely come again.

I had a wonderful meal at Toby Carvery, where the service was exceptional. Our waitress, Lisa, went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience, making the evening truly enjoyable.

The food was very good, however waiting for drinks did take quite a while.  as they were so busy.  The cask ale was cloudy and at the end of the barrel and they did not have any other Ales at all, which was disappointing. This may have been a supply issue!

We enjoyed a wonderful birthday meal at the Harvester in Stanway, Colchester, Essex. The effort and willingness expressed by out waitress (Laura) was worthy of high praise. This employee worked tirelessly in make the evening a huge success.Thank you,Bill

As with any Buffett type restaurant there are good and bad things. But that said you know what you&rsquo;re signing up for when you go there. So queuing for your dinner is a given. The staff were lovely, food hot and plentiful and had a money off coupon too plus earned Yums - all in all a good night.

Have been there a some time ago. Service was very good taff very good and the food was excellent and really good value for money

The food was exceptional, especially the main courses. I opted for chicken and my wife had sea bream - both were delicious and so well cooked. Garlic potatoes as a side dish is a must.All the staff were very attentive and professional

My daughter is a regular customer at The Angel and she recommended the food here is really good, and the atmosphere was chilled and the service was prompt and attentive. We will definitely be returning to enjoy the experience again soon.

I love this little place it&rsquo;s a traditional country inn style really nice setting and surroundings staff are always professional and friendly and the estates always clean and tidy &hellip;&hellip;plus the food is great &hellip;.would recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely food and my sever was very friendly not too noisy either bought kids desserts and a adults but they were the same size and different in price only thing I would change is better signage would have been nice as only 1 sign near the entrance and not the car park it&rsquo;s self as as didn&rsquo;t say anything about pay and display on website and after having to download the app to pay and display only to be told in the restaurant after I asked that u get 3 hours free when dining

The food and service were excellent.   Just wish the plates and food were hotter.   I&#39;ve said this before and I accept that it cannot be perfect, but it would be great if both the plates and the food could be hotter.

Always have great food here but this time it was spectacular ???? great service, lovely helpful waiters, lovely experience thank you ???? ????

This restaurant has a nice location with ample parking, and the food is well-priced with reasonable portions. Definitely worth a visit!

This restaurant offers an excellent venue with superb food, service, and ambiance. The gluten-free options are a great addition, making it a standout choice among similar establishments.

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon at the Quart Pot for a family gathering. The food was amazing, especially the prawn and calamari duo, and the service was spot on with just the right timing between courses.

Food was great, the pies were incredible and Caius (our server) was very attentive throughout.We were made to feel very welcome and will definitely come back again.

It was my Grandson&#39;s First Birthday - we had been eating sausage Rolls and sandwiches all day but by the evening needed a proper meal !! We read reviews and it sounded good so we gave it a try. We are not local so it was our first time. We have been to various carveries before but I have to say your food was the best I had eaten at this type of Restaurant. All the meat was tender and moist and the roast potatoes in beef fat were the best ever. In fact all the vegetables were lovely. we agreed that on our next visit to Southend we would take my daughter, her husband and our Grandson for a treat. The atmosphere was cosy and the staff were all friendly and helpful.In particular our waitress Mandy was really friendly and funny. It really made a difference to our visit. we will recommend and be back next time we are in the area.
