Toby Carvery slashed the price of a roast by half to £3.74

The deal, which was only available until 10pm meant guests could get an adult roast dinner for less than £4, instead of the usual price of £7.49, which includes all the trimmings. The deal also meant the price of a child’s meal was down from £4.99 to £2.50.

Diners could choose from beef, gammon, turkey or pork with as many roast potatoes and vegetables as they like.

Unlimited amounts​

They could also add unlimited amounts of Yorkshire puddings, macaroni and cheese and beef dripping to their plate.

Toby Carvery claims to be ‘home of the roast’ and has been filling diners’ plates for more than 30 years.

The chain has 158 sites across the nation and serves 21m meals with 39m drinks to punters every year.

It employs 4,500 staff across its estate and uses more than half a million turkeys and beef joints annually.
