Five of us went for lunch on a Monday. Very friendly staff, didn't rush us to order. Large portion sizes. Would be good if they had a small bites type menu for those with smaller appetites and/or less money to spend.
I definitely recommend it.
Went there for a drink and had a good time, the staff were welcoming and friendly. Nice inside and outside with all the flower baskets. As for the ladies toilets 10/10 immaculate! The beer garden was good too, definitely a place to go.
1st time for us. We had a great welcome. We didn't know how it all worked. They were busy, and the bar lady said we would be with you shortly. The waitress/bar lady was very efficient and very friendly. We had a superb meal. We will return.
What a superb first experience here. Chloe was our server and she was absolutely spot on in all ways. The food was seriously good, wouldn't look out of place at a restaurant in London. Big portions and extremely tasty.
Would absolutely recommend this little gem of a place.
Thanks so much.
Good home "style" cooked meals. Huge Sunday roast complemented with separate dishes of veggies including an excellent Cauliflower cheese. Excellent attentive staff (on the day our party of 4 went there was a big birthday celebration with 20 + people), but we were well looked after. If you like your Real Ale, the choice was limited but that's my only minor negative. Priced in accordance with the quality and quantity of food!
Family meal, my steak and kidney pudding was huge and great value, as was the fish pie, fish n chips, and sea bass that other family members had, desserts were very good too, have eaten here before and standard is very good.
We went for lunch today and had chicken liver starter for me and duck liver parfait for my partner , both were very tasty. My partner had the fillet steak for mains and asked for it very rare.. we have found that you ask for rare at many establishments you get medium at best.... but this came out properly rare (thank you). I had steak and kidney pudding, which was great and full of tender steak pieces. Service was great too so a great lunch experience.overall.
Fantastic Sunday Roast with good selection of vegetables in lovely surroundings in the restaurant. Also pleased to hear that the pub area is dog friendly so will definitely be back. Thoroughly recommend.
Great menu and excellent service. Lots of space inside and out. I enjoyed my sausages and my little friend thought they smelled wonderful :-)
Visited the royal oak today with gf and friends for Sunday lunch. Food was excellent (roasts all round), had a couple of local breweries on tap and Francis, Amanda and Toby were great friendly hosts.
