Rare Beef to our delight & such a wonderful selection of nice hot vegetables & Thick tasty Gravy to accompany Fabulous Service as usual We will return next Sunday
The afternoon tea at the Oaklands was delicious and the service was excellent. There was a great range of finger sandwiches including smoked salmon , turkey and cranberry and caramelised onion chutney with grated cheese. A selection of small cakes, lemon meringue tarts and macaroons were tastefully arranged on the middle tier of the cake stand and it was all topped off by fruit scones, jam and cream. I had Earl Grey tea but other drinks including prosecco were available. The staff were very attentive offering additional drinks and checking we had everything we needed on a number of occasions.
The room arrangement for eating was fine but as an arrangement to view a show it was pretty poor. A raised area/ stage would have been much appreciated. Or a better shape room suitable for entertaining. We also had no idea when things were due to happen or what the entertainment plan was. Singer was great, the dancers were good, albeit limited & brief, coupled with restricted view made it an okay night only. Regarding the food. The starter pate we had was very nice (rather a lot of pate for a single triangle of bread). The dessert was lovely & both were beautifully presented. The main however was a real let down. The gravy being the best bit. The vegetables were something out of a frozen mix bag & tasteless while the potatoes appeared to be reheated ones from the day before or overcooked. We had different potatoes on each plate. It was reminiscent of a poor school dinner I'm afraid to say. Other than some disappointing food & limited entertainment, it was an 'oaky' evening. Nothing to rave about unfortunately.
I've already written a review on the Oaklands Hotel about our amazing wedding day & how fantastic the staff were but i forgot to give Nadine the resident florist (flower power) a mention! She did such a fantastic job with the bouquets, they were beautiful and just what i wanted, a very talented lady & lovely with it. Thank you from Steph & Dave x
Three of us decided to have a lazy Sunday Lunch. We were given the option of a delicious carvery or a choice off the menu for our mains. Excellent value as you could also opt for two or three courses for your meal which included ether mentioned main. [ three £15.95] We opted for three. The meal was lovely. Two of us had the fish dish which well cooked and very tasty. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Afterwards, nothing better than a drink in the bar.

We stayed at the hotel (not good) and ate Sunday dinner in the restaurant. There was a carvery which was good - excellent roast beef. Decor was strange - it looked as though the front window had been boarded up for some reason, and there was no atmosphere. The carvery was good value but I felt a bottle of mediocre Chilean wine at £18 was pushing it.
