The incident occurred during a busy mealtime, when part of the restaurant’s ceiling gave way unexpectedly. Patrons, caught off guard while eating, were forced to evacuate as debris fell around them.
Fortunately, no serious injuries have been reported, but the event rattled those present, particularly families with young children. Emergency services were called to the scene promptly, and the restaurant was closed temporarily for safety inspections and repairs.
The collapse has raised concerns about building maintenance and safety standards within the establishment. Toby Carvery has issued a statement expressing regret over the incident and assuring customers that their safety is a top priority.
