The Royal Oak - Whatcote

We had a great lunch here a few days ago. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming and the IPA I had was fantastic and well maintained. The food we had was completely perfect. From the bread served with home made butter to the pork head and black pudding lasagna it was only sublime. It is great to see such a high standard of cooking, and it is very safe. I would recommend this place to everyone.

We had a lovely meal here this evening. A really lovely pub with very friendly staff. We had the 6 course menu and very glad that we did. The food was a really high standard and having the 6 courses means you can try both dishes on each course which were very different dishes. The homemade brioche was amazing so much so we had a second loaf when offered! Overall an amazing experience and we would definitely love to visit again soon.

Their 6 dish tasting menu is absolutely fantastic! Service was great and every dish was interesting and different definitely worth the trip.

Exceptional dining experience masquerading as a gastro pub the fact they have a Michelin star says it all really. Can’t believe I have a restaurant of this quality 5 mins drive from my house. The only problem, booking a table. Book well in advance as it’s very popular every time I’ve looked I’ve never been able to get one sooner than in a couple weeks time.

Had the 6 course tasting menu. Very friendly serving staff and the chefs delivered and explained each course. Lots of in season ingredients used. Well presented and very tasty. Off the beaten track, but well worth a visit.
