That was the most polite way of saying that meal was overpriced mediocrity. ❤
Very overpriced and mediocre
That was definitely not worth the money
I have recently been over to the US. This reminds me of those BBQ places I saw over there that do a plate of food for anything between 70 - 100 dollars. Great, but totally not worth the money.
😢😢😢i agree
@GaryEats people say Australia is expensive but UK is next level expensive
As someone that works at Miller and Carter (leaving in 2 weeks) I can tell you most people come in and are disappointed by the "roast" my sister came in and tried it and said it was really bad, I felt so embarrassed
Anyway it can be improved?
I went to the one in Worcester, got a rib-eye, fries, some onion thing and the bone marrow sauce. It was lovely, and it was nowhere near this price. Shame, really
@@rhodaborrocks-dy3fb not the 'roast' though as reviewed.
@@s125ish They can cook the food properly for a start.
@@benzinapaul7416 it was just as much food, troll. And when you get a rib-eye from a restaurant or pub, you can guarantee it!s more expensive than the roast
literally the sweetest man on the internet. this is what classic youtube was all about. An enthusiastic person trying their hardest and making good honest entertaining content. YOU deserve the success you have had and I hope you have even more
I agree Gary is a uber, no posturing just a genuine geezer. Most of UA-cam is full of hate, Gary makes me believe in humanity.
That is such a kind comment, thank you very much
Yeah, he's very likeable. I'm glad the channel is becoming more successful. Always providing a good bit of information on eateries.
I love how you are not intimidated by fame or reputation, but you just deliver an honest opinion. As usual, Gary & Son, a great video, well produced.
I appreciate that! Thank you
Today I am 75 and I got to spend part of it with you!!! Thank you Gary, you always make my day even when you get disappointed!!! This old grammy loves you!!! ❤❤❤
Happy Birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday to You 🥳🎂
Happy birthday mate 👍
Happy birthday Ricky 🎉🎉
Hopefully you've had a lovely day mate 👍
Happy birthday Ricky!! Hope you had a wonderful day and enjoy all of the lovely responses from our wonderful community!
Expensive no longer guarantees quality ..Thats what your channel has taught me Gary.. all the best
Thank you very much
Because costs are through the roof.
That’s my philosophy on wine, Don, as well!
Gary seems like such a positive fella that if he isn't happy about something, it *really* must be bad! ❤😂
This was really really bad lol
@@GaryEatsyou looked almost in tears Gary so disappointing to Expensive ❤
He seems to enjoy things being bad, loves a good moan, this isn't as bad as he makes out
@@GaryEats You were as polite or even more so than us Canadians with your review!
I have always thought this 😂
66 quid for a roast dinner? Believe me, it was 'always' going to be a disappointment for that price.
If everything was absolutely perfect and it was better thought out maybe it would be worth the money but this definitely wasn’t

Lol you must make good money to waste @@GaryEats
@@patrickcarroll1261 why to waste? He does earn with this video way more than 66 quid. Even if he pays 200 quid for that, it would be still a good deal and we know where NOT TO EAT in GB and we can watch good content. WIN WIN
No mint sauce or redcurrant jelly,
no horseradish or mustard,
no sage and onion or bread sauce,
I would expect the lot at that price😲
thank you for sharing
I thought of sage and onion or bread sauce, but I would never eat chicken with lamb and beef. In fact I'd never eat lamb and beef together. They all need to be eaten separately in my opinion. I like mint sauce and redcurrent jelly on my lamb, but not together. The best roast lamb I've eaten was bought from a butcher in Leyburn, North Yorkshire. It came off the Dales, and didn't need either of the sauces. The moorland herbs had already flavoured the meat. I'll always remember that Sunday lunch, Nicky, wherever you are now.
@@pippin1ful I'd eat puppy and kitten together if it was nicely cooked. Catnip sauce and a Winalot broth in the same bowl.
Just joking PTEA/UA-cam snowflakes.
Mint sauce was more than needed
Oh that's even more criminal smdh 😤😤
If it was me I would ask them for the various sauces if they've not been already offered to you at the time of the food arriving.....you can't go through the meal assuming don't have. If you have asked and they don't have ( which I would struggle to believe) then that's one issue . But if you haven't asked and it's just a case of the staff being untrained in the small detail ( an important detail at that ) then saying the service was exemplary raises my eyebrows Gary.😟
My thoughts are you can't just complain if it's just assumed without fact.. lol
For £66 I’d expect shares in the company. Wouldn’t even consider it at that price.
I’m with you mate, I don’t care what people think…far, far too high a price for me!
You’ve clearly never eaten in top restaurants
Miller and Carter is not a top restaurant
@@timsutherland4033 there’s a big difference between top restaurants, with the best chefs using the finest ingredients charging £66 and a chain pub doing the same for a Sunday roast mate! If you’re happy to get ripped off, crack on 👍
Same here. I had a lovely three course Sunday roast recently for £20
I'm fed up with having restaurant meals served in kit form. Chips in wee pots, meat on boards, veg in a separate pan...Just put it all on a bloody plate and FEED me.
PS I think those potatoes had been very intimate with an air fryer.
IKEA self assembly 😞
Adult lego
Well said
Agreed. Well said
Most likely so they can make it look more fancy and charge you more
Another honest, informative, quality review. Well done Gary, you are providing a great service to the common man. The best food/restaurant reviewer ever.
That’s so kind to say thank you
Just a mixed grill with aunt Bessie Yorkshire pudding and gravy
💯
Indeed
ToDavedod
You said it !!!😢😢😢
Yep😂😂
That was my thought about the Yorkshire puddings too - didn’t look ‘home made’.
66.50 is approx $132 Australian. Honestly I would expect the chef to put on a song and dance for that price. Also why can't they serve it up normally instead of like an IKEA put it together piece of furniture. Another disappointing meal Gary. 😢
Yes far too overpriced my friend
I'd put it even more colourfully; at £66.50 it'd better come with a hooker. 😂😂
better meal at an RSL on a Sunday lol Canberra.
Or go down to wollies and buy it all
50aus got me a 50oz steak, just to compare
Those yorkies are definitely brought in ready made, the size and shape is too uniform for home made yorkies, they’re straight off a factory machine
I agree Robert
I got told that MC use iPads for cooking times hence the reason they don't like you ordering rare steak perhaps current or former staff can confirm.
yep fresh made homemade look very distinctive...i concur👍

Aunt Bessie 😂
I have only just recently come across your channel, and I love it! Down to earth, honest and very helpful reviews of the eateries. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!
I so hate it when you're disappointed, Gary. You spend good money with these establishments, and expect value for your cash. But thank you for your honest reviews so we can make the choice of whether to support these businesses or not. Keep on "giving it a go "!❤❤
'That needs help'. My favourite quote about that sad looking piece of lamb.
Yes needed a lot of help Kieran
Hi Gary, Toby carvery, Goring by Sea near Worthing £10.79 for the main course, £2 for dessert. All you can eat! I tried it last Tuesday and the food was fantastic. 😊
Good stuff Alan
Hey Alan, if you sign up with the Toby carvery app, they sometimes do special offers. This week I had a full carvery for £6. I usually take my own drink though to keep the bill low because they charge £4.25 for a glass of pop! I do love a good old fashioned roast.
Toby carvery is rotten compared to miller and carter 😂
I would pay £30 more each not to go in a Toby Carvery
@@bizzielizzie5078 just bring your own pop
Wow mate Russel here for 66 50 it must have gold in the food mate let's see what Gary says ❤ and from Sandra ❤❤❤❤
Our Beefeater ended up as a Miller & Carter.
The Beefeater was very popular. Sad to see it go.
I’ve been to the Miller & Carter once, never again, overpriced and not at all welcoming.
Mine ended up as a Costa😢😢
That is very disappointing to hear Keegan
No Carrots? No Peas? No Mash? No Sprouts? No Parsnips? No Cauli? - It looked more like what you'd get left over from a fight from the left overs of a Mixed Grill and a Roast - And they have the cheek to charge you £65 to do all the plate prepping too.
One Yorkie??????? - You need atleast two! or more! - 6 if you live in my house, and the other six to eat with ice-cream for dessert!
I do believe Gary had two yorkshire puddings.
Yep, really poor stuff
@@pippin1ful That meal was for two so the two Yorkshires represent one each. The bare minimum I would say
@@leegreen67 Well, 1 would be the min - as any less would be ZERO :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
My experience when ordering a meal for 2 at most restaurants is that what I'm actually ordering is a hearty but very expensive meal for 1.
Gary, great video as always 👍 ❤
I just watched it with my lovely mum and the first thing she said was "wheres the brussel sprouts and carrots.. He needs mint sauce with the lamb, horseradish or mustard for the beef "😂 Second thing she said was "those yorkies dont look fresh to me, there prob brought in frozen" I'm not going to argue with an old skool cook.
Bless her heart ❤️
That’s what I think too.. the yorkies are bought in frozen, and I’m a chef
@@MissDelia you can't beat proper homemade yorkies imo but Aunt Bessies are "pretty, pretty, pretty good" to quote Larry David from Curb your Enthusiasm 👍
@@LeTon75 I like to quarter fill my yorkies with gravy and let it soak in. Yes, with that meal, mint sauce, horse radish and English mustard should be provided.
Thank you so much. Please say hello to your lovely mum
After covid, I went to the Cardiff one. Bill was supposed to be about £85, was the black angus ribeye in three peppercorn gravy.. steak was incredibly chewy, ordered a medium rare was closer to a well done, had to send it back which the waiter was very rude about. Missus had the same but ordered medium well, same thing her steak had charring on it too - burned.
When they brought a new plate exact same thing so for the price getting burned steaks we were disappointed, we'd usually have just ate it and went home with a sour face but we complained, they slashed 80% off our bill knowing it was their mistake, so it came to around £19 but considering we only had a bite of each we were both very disappointed, essentially £19 for two glasses of wine and some greens, we grabbed a KFC bucket on the way home - thankfully that was exactly as expected!
As always thank you for the review Gary, appreciate your honesty in your reviews.
That’s definitely not good to hear, thank you for letting me know
I love your channel mate. It's genuinely my new happy place. I love how you always try and see the positives and that's needed right now. Going through a bit of a tough time and your content has really cheered me up. Keep going, keep being great 😊
I hope everything is ok with you Rob and thanks for the kind words
What a real gem your video channel is, I don't go to restaurants often but I always leave disappointed and left with the feeling I could do better at home, sometimes it's so bad i'am left offended, with your channel it's a good reference to sort out the good from the bad saving time money and disappointment, just subscribed, last but not least the way you come across is very honest and likable, I hope your channel grows.
Thank you so much Marco. Please take care.
Yes Gary and Marco, when we go to a restaurant I expect the food to be at least as good as home cooked and, these days, I am disappointed more often than not. I never go to that restaurant again if I have been unhappy with the food. Have written a Trip Advisor review a couple of times I have been so annoyed with really poor food.
Another excellent and honest review-this is exactly what food lovers like me appreciate. You were generous with your 3/10 rating. These restaurants often take advantage of customers and don't seem to care about quality. The chicken looked dry and inedible in the video, yet they boldly advertise it as 'succulent' on the menu-ridiculous!
Your cameraman 📹is doing a fantastic job with the editing, and the audio clarity in each vlog is spot on.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful comment, means a lot
A friend of mine and her family which included children visited M&C for Xmas lunch last year. For nearly £1,200 she said it was the most awful meal and experience she’d ever had. Not enough staff for the amount of patrons and the food was cold and such small portions. Food for Boxing Day had to be consumed when they got home. When they complained they were given a £60 voucher!! They had saved all year to not have to cook on Xmas Day.
I could sense watching you eat how dry and overcooked this extremely expensive meal was. Yorkshires looked like a certain brand Auntie makes. I would have complained so hats off to you Gary for not losing it for the price they were charging.
As for my friend, her family have still saved so they can eat out but this time it’s the local country pub!! First time I’ve truly felt sorry for you Gary and you’ve tried some dreadful food on your travels. Onwards and upwards as always…and don’t forget the indigestion tablets!! 😂 ❤️
That is truly shocking to hear, Anna, after spending all that money and only getting £60 back is unacceptable, they should’ve had a major discount on the meal ❤️
@@GaryEats it was Xmas day, they were tired and hungry and with children in the group they didn’t want to ruin it for them other people. Everyone was complaining but I think it was a staff issue ( not paying enough to work on Xmas day.. hoping on good tips!) and she said the staff who were in attendance were wonderful, it wasn’t their fault. You also mentioned they were the best part of your inedible experience. Still I would have taken the voucher and would still be looking for a better compensation nearly a year on!! 😡
I bet you both grabbed something to eat in your way home… I would have..as that was a snack.. not a Sunday lunch!! 🙄 ❤️
Small local pubs, homecooked food will always be where its at. Usually cheaper too. Chain franchises cannot compete.
You are obscenely rich and deserve to be ripped off.
Lost my job last month at age 64 . Mostly eating potatoes and onions ( fried ) . Breakfast at that price 😂 I absolutely love your videos 😂 Thank you for keeping me sane in these crazy times ❤
Jesus, that sucks, hope you're alright!
It's really vicious to lay people off that close to retirement. They know full well that it's close to impossible to get hired at that age! 🤬
I hope things are going to work out for you.
I'm so so so sorry to hear that. You will be back in work very soon, please take care and all the best.
Jeez that sucks. It should be mandatory to pay one month severance for each year of service. The company I work for more, or less does this for layoffs and my coworkers your age sometimes keep hanging on hoping to get laid off rather than voluntarily retire 😂
Mind you they don’t do it out of charity, it’s to avoid wrongful termination issues.
@@veganbutcherhackepeterthats why its imperative to learn a trade... so you dont have to flounder in the cesspit that is low skill full time employment. im 36 and recently enrolled in college to qualify as an electrician. get a trade, go out on your own and do it right and you can retire whenever the heck you see fit and not have to be disrespected by the machine a year before youre legally free to hang up the b&m bargains uniform.
As you rightly say Gary " Stick to what you do best", and that is steaks. I've had some great meals at Miller & Carter but not pretend roast dinners, your score is on point here.
Thank you Kevin
I agree I wouldn't go there for a roast as u can almost just as good at Toby and carvery or some other pub. Don't get me wrong this is 1 of my fav restaurants but their main market is steaks and I wouldn't pay a premium price for a roast just because of their brand name
@@MampsUKI mean, you do have one of their best steaks on this roast meal, leaps and bounds above Toby's carvery, that's shocking
@Liamfolz well all I will say is if u want a roast u would want it both at a good price and of quality sadly in the case of miller and carter they are mainly good when it comes to steaks and ribs. Buying a roast at premium prices just because of their name is ill advised just like those other places Gary visited like Gordon ramseys chain restaurants which is just a brand and is no guarantee your gonna enjoy the food even at high prices
Gary's 'Let's give it a go!' sounds so wholesome, absolutely love it🥰
Thank you so much
I love this channel. Prime British entertainment better than Keeping Up Appearances. So wholesome. I want to binge watch every episode.
That is very kind to say thank you
I'm sick of saying too many places in the uk(not just eating places)are only interested in extracting as much money from punters as possible often with poor product & service😤💯
I completely agree with you Justin. Very exhausating
I hardly eat out anymore as I don’t like the feeling of being ripped off every time I leave the restaurant
No roast potatoes and calling it a roast dinner? They are not even trying!
Surprised they even bothered with the meat!
Yeah, but at least they give you 5 of them, so what are you complaining about?
Your powers of observation are remarkable. Perhaps watch the video before opening your trap.
5:10 what are these mythical things called then?
@@Mortonbmx NOT Roast Potatoes as explained by Gary.
I like the way you scrutinise the more expensive eateries and rightly so.Its obviously an affluent area but that is really expensive for what it is,there is a reason why these type of places only last 2 years max,thanks Gary
Looks can be deceiving, it’s not an affluent area, there isn’t a queue of people in Worcester Park paying £66 for lunch. He reviewed TAS which is 1/2 mile down the road and that’s less than half what this costs and it’s loads better. M&C are so out of touch
If you charge high prices, you have to serve good food
@@Superflyguy187Miller and Carter been around for years.
Oh no mate i hate dry chicken and my steak must be the way i like it,i think gary is not going to be happy Sandra also can't wait to find out what you say.
You’d think a bigger serving of potatoes and additional carrots and peas wouldn’t cost that much extra to make it a decent dinner
Agreed
Was the 3000 calories for the whole lot, i.e. for 2 people? Even if so, the last thing it needs is more piling on.
I can get myself nearly 2 weeks of groceries for myself for that price! Theres a lovely cafe in newark I go to regularly and they do a full english breakfast for 4 pound 50, good quality and excellent value, even comes with unlimited refill coffee. Great review as always!
Thank you and yes this is a rip off price Harrison
It wouldn’t matter how good the fry up was if you wanted a Sunday dinner 😮 and what do you live on if you only spend £30 a week on shopping? Please tell me your secret 🙏🏽 I need to cut down on how much I spend on food.
Good review. Why put garlic on greens which have a subtle flavour? What would you taste but garlic. The portion size of the meal was good even if the quality wasn’t.
Thank you David and indeed
For two of us I would pay £66 especially as it’s not a “normal” Sunday roast. Nice to have something different sometimes and I like the idea of the Camembert mash and garlic veg. if I want a traditional roast I’d go to Toby Carvery.
164k subscribers! Well done. Good to see the numbers continue to climb. Especially with UA-cam viewership plateauing and smaller / marginal channels going dark.
Thank you very much!
I'm actually making a roast right now to celebrate our Canadian Thanksgiving! (Turkeys were unaffordable this year). As a cook, it's really sad to think people pay big bucks for overcook meats. The whole point of going out is that it should be better than homemade!
Just buy a leg! 🐔
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Canadian thanksgiving , hope your roast is better than Gary's
Agreed 35 plus dollar turkeys.
One year about six years ago the same brand had a sale at safeway. The turkeys were 3 dollars!!!
Thatll never happen again.. I bought two that year would have bought ten but we had a tiny camping size freezer
Today made myself a 3 egg omelette. Hot peppers, diced onions, shredded cheddar, 2 pieces toast, fried up some left over mashed potatoes, coffee with cream. At most 5 dollars CAD, so about 3 pound sterling. And no service charge.🙂
Very nice Garfield
Wow such an inspiration!
Great Video Gary,that Rib eye was looking more Medium well,quite expensive once you’ve divided it up,and the New pots deffo look like they had been dropped in the fryer,keep up the good work mate 👍
Thanks Paul 👍
They could easily do a Beef Rib roast cut very thick - very popular in the US. I wouuld have sent the meat back. You can't remove the cooking. Also putting garlic butter in the vegetables isn't for everyone. No excuse for dry chicken because they are a steakhouse. Sometimes you need a non steak main for a group where most love steak but one or two don't.
I think this whole menu needs rethinking Paul, I understand they are trying something different but it just doesn’t work for the money, I did speak with the management afterwards and gave him my thoughts.
Appreciate your sharing with us Gary. You pretty much summed up everything about the experience at Miller & Carter. Some nice aspects of the meal but portions too small for £33 each and too expensive. Nice restaurant and you said service was great. Agree with your score and what a shame the experience wasn’t good. Take care and see you soon 🫶🫶🫶
Glad you enjoyed it Andreas. Take care my friend
Gary should have a “I’d eat here” guide. I hate these chain pubs with a vengeance.
I suggested this and I think he’s got something planned. I for one would make use of it when travelling
Would love a Gary recommends book ... far more relevant and trustworthy than any other guide
I have something planned for the website!
Like a food hygiene rating sticker in the window with a picture of Gary saying ‘let’s give it a go…’ 😁
Gary’s website is already pretty brilliant. If you select “Reviews” on Gary’s website, he’s got all the restaurants he’s reviewed pinned on a map and the recommendations have gold pins.
You're looking very nice today Gary if I may say so ☺️👍
Navy is your colour.
Thank you kindly Rosie, really appreciate that!
The Greyhound out at Wigginton near Tring. Fabulous family Sunday lunch the other week for £18 each. You need to book and come with a big appetite. The portions are huge and everything is homemade.
Thank you very much. I will take a look, Amelia.

Great video as always Gary. Chain restaurants can be hit and miss. £66.50 is on the pricey side. Style over decent cooking- on to the next video mate.
Thanks Jack. Yes I agree, best avoid but I know how popular M&C are
Here is a LESSON
Don`t go to chain restaurants...especially ones with *celebrity* chefs names on the door

Ive been to my local Miller & Carter maybe 5/6 times and it always been excellent. When it comes to a Sunday roast I’d rather go to a proper carvery establishment and pay a 6th of the price.

Hi Gary! For the equivalent of around $130 AUD, I'd be disappointed too. For that price you should be walking away feeling really satisfied & very happy with the whole meal. I would have thought a couple of drinks & some house made sauces might be included. Far too mediocre & it's not good when the stand-out item is the gravy. It all seemed quite "gimmicky" & a cheeky way to overcharge for what you're getting. I can prepare quite a good roast at home myself, so it's not something I've ever really paid for as a meal out.
I just now saw your very sweet reply to my comment on your Golden Chippy video. I think you are a lovely man & I can only imagine that you are a joy to your son, your mum, your other family & friends. ♥️ I'm travelling down to Melbourne tomorrow for work with some colleagues... I love watching all of your reviews, but I'm not sure if I'll get much of a chance to see them over the next couple of weeks, as it's going to be very busy. I certainly don't want you to think I've disappeared! But, I'll watch & comment wherever I can. Take care lovely Gary & Cameraman & I'll see you soon. 💙🥰💙🥰💙
Thank you so much Erin, you're very kind and I really look forward to reading your comments. Please take care xx
You are doing a fantastic job of this channel. Very well produced, engaging and interesting content and your personality, if I may say so, really shines through. You really do come over as someone you’d be happy to sit down and get outside of a roast with.
I have to thank you for not being influenced by any of these places, you say it like it is. I love what you did here, for example, and cut it in half and showed what you get from your £33. More power to you!
That is such a kind comment and really appreciated thank you
That's robbery at that price. Absolutely shocking.
I completely agree with you
That meal screams ‘Jack of all trades,master of none.’
You are 100% right, Emma
Oh no!!! I've just come from a local pub The Tap House, Sunday lunch with an extra portion of roasts and gravy, just under 15 quid, stuffed, absolutely beautiful and I bought the leftovers for my 2 fur babies, happy Sunday!!!! Hope you're next one is better xx

It’s £33.
@@mofomatstill expensive 😂
@@SailingSeaStar_ It’s not a Sunday roast, though. It’s a steak with chicken, lamb, and Sunday roast accompaniments. People comparing it with a Toby Carvery are missing the point. I don’t think the video title helps either. It’s quite misleading. You can also get a theee course meal including steak for £33 too.
@@mofomat pretty sure he said the total for 2 people was 66.
Hi Gary
Miller and Carter are definitely a mixed franchise. Some branches are very good and some are very poor.
My advice to them is just do a proper Sunday Lunch and do it well or just stick to steaks as you say. This is a very poor expensive idea that’s just not worth it on any level. 3/10 for me on this one.
Another super review as always mate
Thank you very much, Tony. I guess it all depends on which restaurant you visit.
Ganley's roast from £17.00-£24.00 is the winner for me. Its in Morden! "Come on now Gary, you know you want to give it a go!"😂

Thank you for another very honest, yet very polite, review Gary. I. Really appreciate your experienced reviews. Ive learnt a lot from you. Hi Cameraman.

Once again, such a comfortable feeling in that joint. Always preferred that look. For a pub, especially so. Very few pubs like that in my town. And I think America in general.
Thank you
No way is that worth £33.25 each! I gotta say NO!NO!NO for crispy potatoes. That ain’t no substitute for proper roast potatoes 😢 Fair comments as usual Gary
Really poor stuff Natalie, hopefully people give it a miss and save their money
They can’t even be bothered to serve proper roast potatoes….very lazy and what a joke
Haven't even finished the video but I can tell it's not going to be a good one when the greens and Yorkshire pudding are the only things that get Gary smiling.
Not good at all
Greetings from Switzerland love your reports
Thank you
As a Finnish person I really liked The St Georges Taverna/pub next to the Victoria station: Chicken sundayroast. Price/value was right and as a foreigner the foodelevator from downstairs was something I haven't seen 😊
Thank you I’ll take a look
Hey Gary those yorkies are not made on the premises, they look like supermarket yorkies. M&C are very hit and miss. The one in Stratford on Av I thought was very nice but the one in Manchester city centre was awful. I try to avoid them xx
Yes they are frozen xx
The thing with M&C is that in a world where companies like Heinz and Richmond and Cathedral City rule their respective fields despite being far from the 'best' available, it's clear that image and brand is more important to most people. Miller and Carter present their establishments like high end eateries and I think it genuinely fools people into thinking it's better than it is. Their food is fine - I don't think it's *BAD* or anything, but it's not good value.
I don't think they're competing with Toby Carvery by the way, as they are owned by the same company
Of course, I more meant competing in the same location
Interesting.
Hope you are well Gary.
Please could you consider reviewing fellow UA-camr Thomas Straker 'STRAKER'S' restaurant.
Looks like only lunchtime available at the moment.
If you reach out to him you could possibly do an interview, behind the scenes also.
I absolutely can, let me add it to the list Nigel
@@GaryEats thanks bro YNWA
Hi Gary, Have you heard of the Ragged cafe, Mile End? Me and the Mrs pop in occasionally for a Sunday dinner. It’s not fancy and a bit hipster and certainly worth a punt 👍🏻 then a walk down the canal to Limehouse for a pint 🍻 “Give it a go”
I will take a look at your recommendation, thank you, Richard
Its the same with all these major chain restaurants? If i want a roast, the dedicated places like Toby are difficult to beat, both in quality and value.
It is better to go to somewhere like Toby I agree, David
What do the Harvester, Miller and Carter and Toby have in common? They all serve the same items sourced from the same warehouse at three different price points. Literally the same company (MItchells and Butchers) with three different style outlets, serving the same product.
@Gary save yourself some money and get a free salad cart and go to the harvester next time.
I'm guessing you haven't seen Gary's harvester video... 😂
One of the worst reviews on the channel unfortunately.
@@TelThePower shows the power of fancy cutlery.
I visited Harvester….not good
Trouble with Harvester is that virtually everything is deep fried to a frazzle.
£66.50 for a Sunday dinner would be outlawed in Chollis' Britain, punishable by forced dining at German Donner Kebab.
Oh please never make me go through that again
Fantastic comment, that stuff is Crap in a roll. Lol
Can't beat a dirty Doner with lots of that red chilli stuff in it as an occasional pigfest :)
It wasn’t £66 for Sunday dinner. It was £33 for a dinner with steak in it!
Hi Gary. Another very honest review.
The best part of this video is that my wife said I couldn’t possibly watch a food review this evening that included a deep red coloured lamp with a lot of fat stains on it. I won 50p 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So funny John thank you both 😂😂❤️🌹
@@GaryEats I really love your channel Gary. You are my go to. I get everything you say and do. Very well done indeed 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Thank you so much
I'm sitting here in absolute shock and horror at what you get for that price.
Really poor isn't it... and this is your bog standard UK chain restaurant!
Yes! That's $128 Aussie dollars. I could buy two sheep for that. 😆🐑🐏
@@aussiemouth747 Blimey. Aussie sheep are expensive. 😂
How on earth does anyone spend £66.50 on a not even top quality roast!
As someone who works at M&C, its makes me laugh people are willing to pay £66 for 90% frozen food, hilarious!
I used to work for m&c. Other than the steaks which actually are some of the best in the world it's most overpriced harvester food
I have to say, I do agree with you
Great review Gary, as usual, you do it so we don’t have to.
Thank you Gerry
The only Sunday roast worth paying for is my Mum’s. I may be a bit biased but the roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings are especially amazing 🤩
Spot on
I know You only really rate food, but You have to stay a night in the Ruskin Hotel in Blackpool! Not just a great hotel for the entertainment, but a "high quality" all you can eat breakfast is their selling point! Great quality and value for only £12!
Thanks for the tips!
Way to expensive. No way I'd pay. They can keep it. No wonder they go out of business.
Completely rethinking in every aspect Stephen
Thanks for this gary. We have been looking at going down to our local miller and Carter for this. We will now not be going! There's nothing worse than paying good money and being disappointed with your food.
Keep going and can't wait for the next video 😊
It is very disappointing when you spend your hard earned money and receive poor quality Natasha
£66 is absurd. We’re sleepwalking into accepting these prices
10 years ago I worked in a Michelin star restaurant. You could get a 9 course meal for £65
Spot on, I think this was unacceptably pricing
That's how much things cost. Lamb rump and ribeye steak aren't cheap. There must have been a good 350g of meat there.
@@AT-bq1kg I had a steak tonight. It was 250g. It was £5
@@rhodaborrocks-dy3fb that's dear 400g Asda £3.99
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving weekend to Gary and Son.🎃🎉🦃🍂🥧🇨🇦
Once again, I hate to see the disappointment in Gary's face and voice.
Happy Canadian thanksgiving Patrick!
“First ones here” and a disappointment such a shame everyone seems to have a different
Opinion on what a Sunday roast should be done nowadays. You can’t beat a normal Sunday dinner Gary ❤️
I completely agree with you
Miller & carter doing Sunday roasts is like if mcdonalds did curries 🍔🍟🥘🍲😂😂😂
That is a good point
Yikes. Gary looks furious in the thumbnail
Wasn't happy Jack but I've been unhappier!
Me and my mates used to go here 50 years ago every Sunday evening. It was then called the 'Red Lion' and was the 'in place' for youngsters (I'm now 76), and before food was introduced. It was just a large open bar with loud music, so thanks for the memories. I've just come across your channel, Gary, and have been 'binge' watching the last few days. Always very down to earth, honest and entertaining. Maybe you should EMPHASISE this is supposed to be the price for TWO people to share - though that could lead to a punch-up LOL.
Fantastic memories 👍👍
As a woman who loves her condiments, I would have also been very disappointed in this as well - even at half the price. Thank you for another great review, Gary! 🇦🇺🙏
Our pleasure!
I really enjoy your programmes Gary, well presented and I think you are really fair. Keep up the good work mate.
Thank you very much Mark
