Good menu choice...made a reservation which was lucky as people were being turned away when we arrived. Service initially ok but slowed considerably which was a shame. Food generally ok...

Very good wholesome and generous food. Prompt service and friendly staff. Booked for a second night as we left. Not Cordon Bleu but very honest quality pub food. Two courses was sufficient.

The restaurant was very busy thus our main courses were slow in coming. This was not really a problem just an observation.

This was a " halfway" meeting point for a celebratory meal with my brother and sister in law. Not a very comfortable place to sit and eat. Food quality indifferent (at best). Drinks very expensive. Falls well below expectations offered by Trip Advisor.

Staying at the Wilton Premier Inn we researched local vegetarian options and found the Royal Oak famous for its pies and this was indeed justified. Excellent service and food.
