What Jason Adams likes about Royal Oak:
beautiful pub . I stopped at this place last night. asking that I should stay in her parking lot overnight with my campervan. nice friendly staff, eating was excellent and even very quiet, it had a nice atmosphere. you keep on my revisit list when in the opposite. View all feedback. What Oliver Hall doesn't like about Royal Oak:
since being taken over, it's lost its magic, always use to be packed! going to rate this as a 2. went for lunch end of June 2022. online booking said nothing until 3 pm. Phoned them booked us in for 1. on arrival all OK, only half of the outside table occupied, and only 6 tables inside occupied. so why did it say online no space until 3 when clearly there was? food was OK, but has lost its edge on from previous visit...

The Royal Oak has undergone recent changes with new ownership, resulting in mixed reviews. Some diners noted a decline in food quality and service, while others praised the improved experiences under the new management. Despite varying opinions, many appreciated the outdoor seating, friendly staff, and delicious meals. The restaurant offers a range of dishes, from seared lamb to special curries, with options for cocktails and desserts. The charming atmosphere and attentive service were highlighted by those who had positive experiences, making it a promising choice for a meal out despite some concerns about the kitchen's cleanliness in previous reviews.
