Was back here on Sunday evening for a carvery. It was packed as usual. Ales have deteriorated since the last visit. Only Doom Bar was available. The best cider choice I could see was Thatchers Old Rascal in bottles. The furniture could do with an update, unless you like holes in your seats. Not a place I would head for a beer. But it's ok for a cheap roast dinner.

The Toby Carvery has not changed too much since my last visit here several years back. Although it does seem much busier. 2 ales were on last night - Fullers London Pride & Greene King IPA. The food is good value, but drinks are pricey. The wait to get served can be almost 10 minutes. Far more of a restaurant than a pub, but if you live locally, it's just about your only option for a pint.

The carvery's good value and what you'd expect in the area (!)
As a pub you'll get a fair pint of Pride etc. and that's about it. Not much atmosphere: loud music, motel clientele, and a few locals who can't be bothered to go any further.
Boring "purpose-built" affair it seems as a building.

I visited yesterday and although the beer (Stella 4% and Tetley extra cold) was good and reasonably priced and the staff were polite, the visit was ruined by people who allowed their children to run around and/or keep screaming. It is unlikely I would come here again.

Went in here last week (sorry for the delay). Typical carvery but for all of that the food was OK. Staff were pleasant and helpful and booking a table for 10 at short notice was no problem. They had London Pride and Wadworth 6X which were both excellent.

I occasionally meet Ex Work Collegues here. I found the bar staff offish (in that it was a chore to serve you)and the Beer pricey. But the worst thing was that if you were NOT a resident you were made to feel unwelcome as soon as time was rung. had a meal once in the carvery - surprisingly that was not to bad. Unless you have to don't bother - Typical estate Pub situated on a main road (A4), who let kids in the restaurant after 9pm. Agree with other review about the pikey's. INCIDENTLY LANGLEY IS IN BERKSHIRE NOT MIDDLESEX.
