Toby Carvery Toby Tasters are the sharing starters, sold as 2 for £6.99 or 3 for £9.99. Two work out at about £3.50 a dish, three at £3.33, and the third adds just £3.00. A Taster Platter to share was £9.00 on the menu we reviewed.
This guide covers the deal and its maths, the dishes and prices we could confirm, vegetarian and vegan options, and what tasters add to a carvery bill.
How this guide was put together. Prices come from a Toby Carvery menu we reviewed in October 2026. The list of tasters changes by restaurant, so dishes without a price come from earlier menus we have seen and may not be on yours.

How the Toby Tasters Deal Works: 2 for £6.99 or 3 for £9.99
Pick any two tasters for £6.99 or any three for £9.99. The price is fixed whichever dishes you choose, and you can order the same one twice.
| Choice | Price | Per dish | Extra vs previous |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 Toby Tasters | £6.99 | about £3.50 | — |
| 3 Toby Tasters | £9.99 | about £3.33 | +£3.00 |
| Taster Platter (to share) | £9.00 | varies | 99p below 3 tasters |
The maths: the third taster costs £3.00 (£9.99 minus £6.99), so three tasters is the cheapest per dish. A single taster is priced on its own, not at the deal price, so ask your server what one costs.
