Carvery

A carvery is a pub or a restaurant where cooked meat is freshly sliced to order for customers,[1] sometimes offering unlimited servings in a buffet style for a fixed price.

Carveries are often found in pubs and hotels,[3] particularly at weekends, when they offer Sunday roasts to a large number of people.

They provided a three-course meal with beverage, but all but the carvery items were served by a Nippy (waitress).

The restaurant there was on the ground floor, the Art Deco ceiling of which has been reassembled in the new Air W1 building.

Later they were operated by pub chains such as Harvester, Brewer's Fayre and Beefeater.
