The Royal Oak - Réserver une table

While visiting from Australia, we were in search of a quaint country pub with historical charm, and that is exactly what we found here. The 750-year-old building had low ceilings and a rustic feel, which is to be expected from a pub dating back to the 13th century. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The staff were friendly and accommodating. We savored a delicious Sunday roast, embracing the rustic atmosphere we were hoping for.

Phoned to book on Friday for a 2pm lunch for three people on Sunday.

Hopefully, this was just a one-time issue as we would be eager to return. The fish platter we shared as a starter and the wild mushrooms on toast were both excellent. The service was friendly and efficient.

Have just spent an hour in this pub Staff fantastic ambience calming Unfortunately this visit was spoilt by an obnoxious customer who thought it was his right to constantly hit his dog through out our visit. This was clearly seen by the staff and nothing was said? People on an adjacent table also noticed and decided to leave quickly We found this hugely upsetting.

I just had an amazing lunch at this restaurant. Everything was flawless. The food was excellent, the staff was relaxed, helpful, and knowledgeable about the menu. They were very accommodating with dietary restrictions. I will definitely be returning soon!
