Toby Carvery Ormskirk

Alright, listen up, if you're after a proper Sunday roast near Southport without the faff of cooking it yourself, Toby Carvery in Ormskirk is a decent bet. It gets a 4.1 out of 5 based on over 2,300 Google reviews, so people generally seem happy enough. It's not gourmet, mind you, but it’s solid, reliable, and won’t break the bank - definitely a budget-friendly spot.

It's basically an all-you-can-eat carvery, so you can pile your plate high with roast meats and all the trimmings. They've also got a regular menu with pub grub if someone in your group isn't feeling the roast. Plus, there's a kids' menu, which makes it a no-brainer if you've got the little ones in tow. They've got an outdoor seating area too, which is nice when the weather’s playing ball. I'd say it's ideal for families, less so for a romantic night out.

It's open from 8 in the morning until 10 at night, seven days a week, so you can get your roast fix whenever you fancy. The address is technically Ormskirk, but it's just a short drive from Southport, so don't let that put you off.

If you're thinking of going on a Sunday, especially around lunchtime, I'd definitely recommend booking ahead to avoid a long wait. Give them a ring on 01695 579755 or have a look at their website.
