Would give 0 stars if I could.Got some salt and vinegar crisps and they had no flavour to them and then seen they was a year out of date.Then got a tuna sandwich and it had spider and someone?s hair inside it. Only good thing was a red bull that had nothing wrong with it.Also staff is never at the tills

Very average pub food with undercooked chips. Not sure how the salad been kept but the peppers were slimy. The place needs a good clean. The cobwebs around the lights near our table had clearly been there for some time. The toilets are awful - not sure when the floor was last brushed let alone mopped. The dust and dirt was inches thick around the edges of the cubicle. Won?t be returning any time soon which is a shame because the front of house staff were friendly and helpful.

Popped in today and chose pie and chips off the menu.. as stated it was a pie from the butchers so expectations were high!... what arrived on the plate was a pukka pie and half cooked chips! The pie was fine as a pukka pie is but please don't state on the menu it's from the butchers when clearly it's not.. very disappointing

The Chef The chef is a real asset not just as long a real chef but also a thoroughly nice guy, could not do enough outstanding hospitality tonight. Came to celebrate best buds birthday. We had the gammon steak omg the portion size was amazing followed by Eton mess and citrus lemon tart .. The staff were lovely but our stand out was the chef popping up asking how we were and worrying we had not been taken care of..didn't get your name but you were such a credit to this pub god bless ya

We were able to host the most perfect baby shower thanks to the amazing team at The Royal Oak. They provided everything and more to make our day special! The food was absolutely perfect thanks to the chef! I couldn?t recommend The Royal Oak enough if I tried, perfect place for any occasion! Thankyou!!!

My daughter and her partner held their baby shower here at The Royal Oak. It was a perfect day! We were in the lovely marquee and had full access to the garden. We were able to arrive early to decorate the venue. The outside bar was open for us and when the food arrived it was exactly what we had asked for, came out quickly and there was plenty?.. nobody went home hungry! Everybody was so friendly and welcoming, lots of guests commented on what a lovely hidden gem it is, even a huge thunderstorm didn?t dampen the atmosphere! Thankyou all for a fabulous day

Lets start with the good things:- The service and food were excellent, we were a family party and had different types of food. All served at the same time and hot, with all of us enjoying the taste. The drinks were as they should be and quickly served. HOWEVER. The outside tables were dirty we had to get them to clean ours and the one next to us was worse and still in that state after we left. Inside there was a large amount of dust and cobwebs all around the doors and windows. To finish it off the staff had their own table which was in the main area and was disgraceful with food and rubbish all over it and to make it worse they had a dog on a blanket on the table. WHY HAVE A DOG ON THE TABLE? The staff are all young and although they do a great job at serving, perhaps cleanliness could be instilled? I only hope that the kitchens are cleaner. It will be a while before we go back..

I don?t come here often, and I understand why now! Bar staff can?t be faulted, but unfortunately the management seems less! Over heard the chef, who?s wandering the pub with his ?chef? whites on, drinking a beer, tell a member of staff, who can?t be much older than 16, that he loved her. He was also very inappropriate to my girlfriend and one of her friends as they entered the toilet, hanging out the kitchen doors, offering them ?another door?. I wouldn?t consider letting my daughter work around this man!!

We went for Sunday lunch on a hot day with our little dog. We couldn't sit under the marquee outside as it was laid up for an event. The outside tables had no shade, no parasols, so we ate inside and were shown to a table in the corner. We were served with drinks quickly and ordered a chicken Sunday lunch for me and my husband had a pizza. The meals were served quickly with very friendly service. My meal looked fine with plenty of veg and a huge Yorkshire pudding. However, the meal proved to be very disappointing. The chicken was dry and tasteless, the mash was just like Smash, the roast potatoes were lukewarm and the veg undercooked and I just couldn't eat them. The stuffing was brown and dry and rubbery. My husband said his pizza tasted ok but the presentation left much to be desired, being served on a wooden board and looking, well, just a brown shape. I did tell the waitress about the veg but shall we just say, we won't be rushing back.

I booked the Oak for a wake, and ordered a finger buffet. The food was lovely, plenty of it, and I thought excellent value. Gill was really helpful when I booked, accommodating our last minute changes, and offering a wide choice of options to us. Great service, great food and great value, I would definitely recommend.
