Where do I start? We booked a table for 8 people for a birthday and we were the only people in the restaurant. I ordered the ‘super roast’ and I actually laughed when it arrived. I genuinely thought it was a joke... meat that was stone cold and water thin, 3 tiny dry potatoes, a miniature Yorkshire, 1 piece of broccoli and 1 piece of dry cauliflower. The meat was terrible, the only way I can describe it is it looked like sliced sandwich meat from a packet that had been warmed up in an oven (just to dry it out) in an attempt to make it look like roasted meat. We immediately complained and the waitress took them back. She came back 5 mins later with the same plate and one extra potato! The mea...
My husband's pate came out with cold toast that seemed like it had been sitting out for a while. My bread had no butter, just spread, a small amount of what seemed like frozen prawns, and not enough sauce to even wet the lettuce. This was not what we expected for the price. We should have cancelled our dinner and left as we discussed. Our main courses arrived, and both of us had parsnips that were not on the menu. When my husband requested only peas, the beef was cold. There was even a runner bean in my gravy, even though we hadn't ordered runner beans and were told it was in the stock. The Yorkshire pudding was flat as a Frisbee, but the potatoes were good. My husband couldn't eat his dinne...
We ate here last night after a few beers and wow I was impressed. Me and my wife are newish vegetarians and sometimes it’s very difficult to eat out and enjoy it. There was only one vegetarian item on the menu which is understandable for a pub this size, however the waitress told us they didn’t have any. She went back in to speak to the chef and he come out with her and said he can go get some quorn mince and make some burgers for us. It turns out the chef was vegetarian and we were so happy he was so helpful. The burger come out and wow it was amazing. So amazing that we asked to see him after to see how he managed to make it so well. Lovely place we will definitely eat in again. Our experi...
This used to be such a lovely pub. It's the only pretty building left in the village in a prime location on the village green. Unfortunately since its reopened it is full of young rowdy youngsters in the beer garden openly dealing drugs. If you sit out the front you can spend all night watching drug deals going on all night on the green. The staff all look miserable which is hardly surprising how badly its run. The pub used to be full of regulars but nobody seems to go there anymore. The closing times are different from the website and it seems the landlady can't wait to get rid of everyone by 10pm at the weekend.

Visited the royal Oak a few Sunday's back for a spot of lunch. i used to frequent this public house on a regular basis but as you do, I drifted away, so first time back for me in a while. The restaurant is run separately from the pub and they are trying hard to make a go of it. We just had a main course and some drinks and whilst the others enjoyed their meals I was left a little flat as the fish (I think it was SeaBass from memory) I had ordered was somewhat dry which was a real shame. Service was good and attentive and value for money was ok. i would give it another go as I'm sure this was just a blip.
We used to visit this restaurant frequently because they served a delicious Sunday lunch. However, when we recently visited after a year, we realized why we hadn't been back sooner. The quality of the food has declined - it no longer tastes fresh and seems to have been reheated in the microwave before being served. The price for the Sunday lunch is not too expensive, but it is not cheap either. We expected better quality, especially since it is not a large restaurant serving a high volume of guests at once.
Love this pub good has always been good and out recent visit was no different. New menu has tapas options which were delicious and for lunch made a lovely change good presentation. Although wad only one food waitress and there were 2 quite large parties she did a great job. Food came in good time and service was attentive will be back and would definitely recommend.
This was my second visit to this lovely pub. Both times I had lunch with friends and both times it was fabulous. Lovely cosy pub, friendly waitress and a great chef with a good selection of dishes. This is a lovely place to have lunch and then sit with a drink on the lovely sofa. It has a lovely little garden which will be lovely in the summer. Highly recommended.

This pub is fantastic! The staff is so friendly and even made sure my dog had water. The bar staff was welcoming and the pub was well-maintained. The restrooms were also great.
More upmarket than the usual pub grub. Food takes longer but is cooked as you order. Delicious and would go again
