The Royal Oak pub stands out as a vibrant local spot, boasting a friendly atmosphere and exceptional service provided by a dedicated mother-daughter duo. Guests appreciate the welcoming staff, who ensure enjoyable evenings filled with quizzes or live music. While many enjoy the pub's charm and value for money, experiences vary with the food; some have reported inconsistencies, from delicious starters to disappointing pizzas. Special occasions, like anniversary celebrations, have not all gone smoothly, with unfortunate reports of food safety issues. Nonetheless, the pub remains a popular choice for gatherings, thanks to its accommodating staff and lively ambiance.

A three course meal took about two hours in total, which I think is excessive? Stale roasties, pancake flat Yorkie. But the starter was incredible and the beef...
