Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Toby Carvery Willingdon Drove
Very routine pub / restaurant with mostly anonymous furniture and decoration, although there was one alcove with a fireplace that looks slightly less dull. However, unlike most of this chain's outlets, no cask ale available so made do with a quick keg London Pride (£2.40, half) before heading to Hampden Park station.

This place goes hand in hand with the adjacent Travelodge and is everything one would expect from a Toby pub. It was very busy when I popped in on Saturday evening, but I was served a decent pint of Guinness very promptly by a cheerful barmaid. The usual draught suspects are also available alongside Greene King IPA and Harveys Best. Strictly Come Dancing was muted on the lone plasma screen as some background music played and to be honest I’m surprised the manager didn’t just put the sound on as there were a fair few people gawping at the screen. There is a large car park and this place is not the most accessible by foot so most people drive, which is no problem as the food is the major draw.
This is a handy pub for families that wish to take their kids to the pub for dinner as a treat, but I’d rather eat at home.

We stayed at the Innkeepers Lodge across the car park. Wheelchair access is good and it is situated on a ring road with commercial and housing developments nearby.Can be very busy especially on weekends or the evening rush. Beer and lager is keg.Like most Toby's this one efficiently run but lacks in atmosphere. It is the breakfast bar for the Lodge and a bit out of things if you fancy a visit to the seaside.
