About us

The lounge is always cosy and warm and difficult to leave at the end of the evening. The story of an unusual low scoring cricket match is told on the wall of the lounge. The public bar has darts and background music or jukebox. Very much a locals’ pub that can get noisy, it is friendly at the same time. Snacks and meals are offered through the day. Beers are from Pub Company list but change constantly. Unobtrusive TV and garden for warmer months. The nearby church of St Nicholas (Norman) adds to the rural feel.

Had a pub lunch with visiting overseas relatives. The small restaurant (called the Secret Kitchen) is a separate business from the Royal Oak pub. Separate staff and billing but sharing the same roof and access. An awkward arrangement if you want a drink with your food. They seemed to try hard and the quality of service and food were OK but not memorable. The atmosphere was a bit pokey and felt like stepping back in time 40 years. The Royal Oak's carpark requires caution. It is actually controlled by Initial Parking. I inadvertantly overstayed my pre-paid 2 hour ticket by 45 minutes and got hit with a £60 bill (reduced from £100 for quickpayment). My fault but it was enough to deter me from returning.

Stopped off for a quick burger around 7pm on a Friday and were very pleased with our impromptu dinner. Staff were lovely and since the restaurant was full we were offered an alternative place to sit outside. When an indoor table cancelled we were given the option to move indoors. Much appreciated! A good food recommendation given by the hostess too. Food was fresh, yummy and arrived quickly. Would happily come back if I was in the area again.

We were so lucky to get seated as we’d not booked and Sundays seem very popular. Really friendly and welcoming staff. We both decided on the absolutely superb roast lamb with all the trimmings and it arrived super quick. I had to sample the chocolate trillionaire tart with vanilla ice cream😃. I highly recommend you book a table you won’t be disappointed.
