Royal Oak in South Bucks

Very friendly staff, noise level is really good, best of all no parking issues

WOW! So glad we decided to dine here tonight. We received a warm and friendly welcome from Danni as we entered and she chatted with us as she showed us to our table. Danny then took our drinks order which were arrived in double quick time by Steph, again lovely and friendly and chatty. Both our starters and mains were promptly by Steph and we were checked on half way through. We both had the Signature burger which was absolutely fantastic. The beef rib and merlot gravy made it the best burger we've had in ages, it should be 'bottled' we will definitely be back very soon.

Had a lovely meal served by Steph who was fantastic Very attentive and made sure we were happy with our meal and drinks Would highly recommend

Steph was amazing, great customer service skills. Highly recommended and food was lovely.

Lovely country pub with nicecatmosphere, good good and plenty of parking. Ideal for lunches or dinners or just catching up with friends over a drink at the bar. Staff are welcoming and efficient.

Had a lovely meal out waitress Hayley was very friendly and polite really enjoyed our evening

Lovely food and fantastic service from Stephanie

Food was great and we will definitely return next time we are passing through. Steph looked after us and made us feel really welcome. Thank You

Amazing food and service . Steph was so friendly felt like home from home .

Had a lovely time. Hayley was great. British Cheese Board was excellent.

Thank you Tina and Kelvin. You guys really looked after us. Came for our 20th wedding anniversary lunch meal. Keep up the great work.

Hayley always provides a 5 star service every time we visit, she is very attentive, welcoming and brings a great atmosphere to the pub with her vibrant self.

The Royal Oak in Slough, UK, is a gem worth visiting. I had a fantastic dinner there recently, and everything from the food to the atmosphere was spot-on. They offer convenient parking, which is a big plus. The chicken, leek, and cheese pie was an absolute highlight, perfectly flaky pastry with a rich, flavorful filling. The staff were incredibly friendly, and Hayley stood out for her excellent food recommendations, making the experience even better. The pub has a warm, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend stopping by for a meal!

There are very few places I would leave a review for but the food is incredible, the atmosphere is perfect and the service from Steph couldn’t be faulted. Eating here is like being welcomed by a family for incredible food at excellent prices. I will be going here again in the future.

Hayley was a very helpful waitress with having duedilegigence as we had a GF diner with us and double checked all food brought out was correct.

I was served by Hayley she was larger than life Very kind norther Loved the food highly recommended

Very good. Great service by Danny & team- very friendly and accommodating.

Excellent service from Steph, Tina and Julie. Food was prompt, despite being busy, and delicious!

Always a great family meal here - thank you Steph, lovely as always!

Very Nice meal. The staff were accommodating considering we didn't have a booking.

The steak was burnt and it was over cooked quite a bit

Had meal at Royal Oak served by Steph very noce

Visited the Royal Oak with my boyfriend. Food is good portions. Was served by Steph, thoroughly enjoyed.

Went out for a meal with my family. Food was amazing and Danni and Steph were lovely and very helpful.

We had a lovely family get together here evening of Monday 14th we had family from Melbourne Australia, and Devon. Hayley served us and was excellent. A huge thank you to all the staff at The Royal Oak. It could not have been better.

Fantastic place to eat Steph was very great at her job Would recommend to friends and family

Popped in for quick lunch, we ordered the cheese toasties and chicken sandwich, both very good meal sizes for prices and service from hayley was polite and professional.

Steph was absolutely amazing and was very kind to us on our visit to the royal oak. Yummy food and relaxed atmosphere! Thank you.

Lovely quiet evening, good food, no complaints which is a miracle if you know me! Fab biscuits accompanied the hot drinks. Attentive but not overbearing service from Steph! And she remembered the mint sauce.

Steph was lovely and not offended by our humour. Food was very nice

Service was outstanding Hayley was on the ball and really made it a nice experience

Great staff Kelvin Hayley Dani and Steph Always friendly and welcoming Food is always great Would definitely recommend

Went to the Royal Oak for lunch after a walk round Burnham Beeches.It is one of our favourite pubs for the reasonably priced lunch and country pub atmosphere! Our trip was enhanced by the service provided by Stephanie,warm and welcoming as always! Strongly advise the experience for good quality lunch,stacks of parking and great service from the ever attentive staff! Jim and Margaret Reading

Visited for our daughters birthday. Great food and service (Steph was excellent) Would definitely recommend and will be back.

Lovely spot with great outdoor area, dog friendly which is always a plus. Hayley was very friendly & attentive. Great food. Would definitely return!

Hayley was amazing and looked after us and our doggies. Great food , great service, great afternoon, defining back thank you x

Came in with my friends and ordered the chicken burger. Was my first time in Slough and this restaurant is so nice! Was served by Hayley and she was so lovely and helpful with helping me decide what to eat. Would definitely come again :)

Friendly staff. Hayley recommended the specials which were very nice. Will visit again

The service food and attention was excellent. We were looked after by Steph, she made us very welcome and service was first class.

The Royal Oak is a charming pub with a cozy atmosphere, offering great food, friendly service, and a selection of quality drinks.

Fantastic service from the lovely Steph and Hayley both went over and above to accommodate us. Lovely atmosphere and food we will be back for sure.

I enjoyed a nice meal here on a Tuesday evening. Plenty of space and very friendly staff. I thought the menu looked a bit limited, especially for vegetarians, but then they said three dishes were out of stock, including two vegetarian ones! However I really enjoyed the veggie burger and they the waitress was really friendly and warm.

A fantastic pub with a lovely cosy vibe. Good drinks, good menu and brilliant staff: thank you Steph and Hayley for looking after us!

Love this place the food is always affordable and delicious they always have events on and the menu tells you how much calories there are in each meal The workers here and extremely kind we were served Jenny and Steve who were extremely kind and took good care of us. I would absolutely recommend this place if you're looking for food around the area

Service from Nayel was outstanding 5* Food (roast) was amazing! Atmosphere calm and relaxed for a sunday afternoon! Thank you

Just had a lovely lunch here. Good veggie options. I recommend the mushroom and ale pie

Good food, plenty of it and reasonably priced. However they were pretty busy and service was slow. However, Steph and Steve did their best under the circumstances. Apart from that a very enjoyable experience.

Nice pub and restaurant. And staff friendly.Went for lunch. Starters of Garlic Bread and Soup took 20 minutes and the soup came not hot. Then took 15 mins for main course and chicken breast was overcooked so quite hard to eat. Overall service too slow.

Down from Norwich visiting our daughter decided to go out for a meal and chose the Royal Oak which we had visited on numerous occasions when living nearby. We had a warm friendly welcome and as the restaurant was fully booked we were offered a table in the bar, which was fine. Drinks and food ordered. We waited about 10/15 mins for our starter which we throughly enjoyed. Followed by our hearty dinners with no complaints. Service with a smile at all times by Danni, Steph and Hayley.

Haley and all the staff were so helpful today. It was busy but we were looked after well and despite being warned by Haley that the kitchen had lots of covers to prepare it was not a long wait at all. We are regulars because we know it's good food, good prices and wonderful staff make the atmosphere pleasant every time. Thank you

Great attentive service as always. Surprisingly busy for a Wednesday afternoon, but did not affect the service levels. Fish and chips were excellent, goes well with guinness zero Took advantage of an offer which was really worth it, very few if any "gotchas" in it.

Very good service, Very helpful staff Very good Food

We were here to celebrate my son’s 11th birthday and enjoyed the food, service and everything. We had nice time and thanks to Danni for making our special day more memorable.

Servers Steph and Hayley were great, food was great and the restaurant very clean and decor lovely

You always receive a warm welcome from the staff. Excellent food and value for money. Clean facilities and plenty of free parking

Fantastic food as always but defo come for the service , Steph,Danni and Steve friendly and professional couldn’t ask for more x

Great food and service as ever from Steph and Danni the dynamic duo..

Another great meal, a fantastic Steak and Ale pie, veg and mash perfect (Wife's steak was also apparently wonderful) Always a friendly team and great service as always from Steph. Just enough mellow background music to break the silence.

Very well attended to by the staff at our last visit. Shame there are never many roasts left towards the latter end of the day but I guess that is to be expected.

Shocking Service and Hostile Attitude I visited The Royal Oak in Farnham Common today with my family, and I am appalled by the experience. The pub was completely empty, yet we were met by an older lady whose attitude was downright hostile. She clearly has no understanding of basic customer service. I was with my two children, one of whom is autistic, and requested to sit on a bench-style table for ease and comfort. Her response? A flat-out no with a patronizing explanation that only four people could sit there—even though the space could easily accommodate five, especially as two of us were kids. This was nothing short of unnecessary and unreasonable. Her tone and behavior were sickening and made us feel completely unwelcome. As an Asian family, the treatment we received felt laced with prejudice. Her attitude reeked of discrimination, and I honestly felt that we were being judged from the moment we walked in. We left immediately and went elsewhere, as there was no way we were going to tolerate such appalling treatment. To the management: if this is the kind of person representing your business, you need to take a serious look at who you employ. It was one of the most unpleasant experiences we’ve ever had at a pub.

Excellent food, and lovely staff... highly recommend.

Lovely birthday meal for my Daughter, food and service great . Thanks Steph & Danni

This was my first visit with my Brother and sister on 2nd of January. Arrived at 4.00pm nice comfortable surroundings. Friendly staff. And despite unforseen delay with food coming to table.We were kept informed by staff. When food did arrive it was worth the wait. Look forward to visiting again.

A chef & brewer pub. The food is good, the beers are okay, less guest beers than there used to be. Nice to pop round not for a light lunch.

Excellent service and food. Plenty of parking. Recommended.

First time at The Royal Oak this evening. Steph looked after us superbly. 5 stars!

We went there today, Christmas Day, and had a wonderful Christmas lunch. Brilliant!

The pub has a lovely atmosphere and both staff who served us where nice however the food took a very long time to come and the dessert so long we cancelled it. She was very apologetic but as it was our works Xmas do (8 of us) it was a bit disappointing.

Really relaxed atmosphere, and our servers Hayley and Danni were lovely. We had the signature burger, and steak and ale pie - both delicious and will definitely be ordered again!

Very friendly service and good food.

Lovely Sunday lunch, the beef was cooked to perfection compliments to the chef. The staff Steve, Danni & nate were so welcoming, definately return xf

Great friendly service, thank you Steph and Halyey for making our visit so enjoyable! Recommend the Camembert and Beef Cheek in the Christmas menu. Big portions, lovey food and atmosphere.

Lovely pub with a warm welcome, nice food and friendly staff. We all enjoyed our family meal here, having never visited before.

Lovely evening. Thank you Steph and team for your 5 star service. Have been served by Steph before, always so helpful.

Rubbish experience - car parking and penalty charges are profiteering and customer service no help at all. Be careful!

Pop in on my lunch break and had the chicken burger, it was hot tasty and quick. Service wad friendly and atmosphere was enjoyable. Great little country pub, couple dog walkers in and festive decorations look lovely.

Sunday lunch with my 2 daughters, my sister in Law and her 2 daughters

I went on my way down south and had the festive menu, the food was great and the service was quick and friendly, thank you to Steph and Danni!

Been here twice now and both times it's been amazing food and service 10/10. Staff are great. Also love the cosy vibes of the pub

Always a good selection. Food was served hot and in large portions. Service was perfect. Friendly and attentive staff. Children's menu offered good food choices not just chips and nuggets. We were all spoilt for choice.

Great food and good staff and good price 👍

The food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere in the pub was relaxing and quiet, even if it was full. The only thing we didn't liked it so much was the long time needed to take our order and also the time to deliver it to the table.

Very nice decor. Service by Danni and Steve was wonderful and very swift. Food was well cooked, flavoursome and presented well.

Brought some friends from the US as they wanted some British pub grub. Really great atmosphere. Steph was really lovely and made it a great experience. The food was really good - good size portions, and the pies in particular were a hit. Definitely coming back here again!

Een fijne plek om wat te eten. Honden mogen mee naar binnen, voor ons heel belangrijk :) Even wennen dat je aan de bar moet gaan bestellen. Owja, een grote cola is ook echt een grote cola (halve liter). We hadden een vega gerecht. De kaart is voornamelijk voor vlees eters, maar er staan wel wat vega gerechten op. Dik in orde. Het was heel mooi opgediend, zag er heel goed uit en smaakte ook nog eens heel erg lekker. De portie was ook groot genoeg. Er zijn gratis parkeerplekken voor de deur. We waren zelf eerst gaan wandelen in Burnham Beeches. een aanrader ! Daarna is het nog een stukje naar de Royal Oak, uiteraard kun je dat ook met de auto doen. Het personeel is vriendelijk en de bediening gaat redelijk vlot. Binnen is het ook netjes. Het was er best wel druk. Het geheel is verdeeld in 2 delen. Het voorste deel waar je "in de pub"zit en waar je de hond mee mag nemen. En de andere kant is het wat "sjiekere" deel. Ruim voldoende om na het wandelen iets te eten. Fijne plek

Nice country pub with good service. Particularly enjoyed the chicken strips.

We had a beautiful meal it was superb

Heather our waitress was so helpful and served us promptly - we were told what the specials were and ordered our meals and drinks quickly - we ordered burgers, grilled chicken and a signature burger both delicious - A side of halloumi fries very tasty and crispy - service was very group - a quite evening but cosy atmosphere would recommend and go back

Very tasty breakfast and friendly staff.

I have friends who live nearby, since the Royal Oak is on a bus route it is convenient for us to get together here. I can say every time we eat here I am impressed, the warmth of the greeting, the atmosphere, the layout all makes your visit a pleasure. On this occasion we were welcomed by Danni who showed us to our table and brought us our drinks - as usual a varied selection of beers and wines were available. Nayel then joined Danni and gave us the menu and specials, also remarking a party of 10 would be arriving so it could make sense to place our orders soon - no problems with this, we all seemed to know exactly what we wanted! Our food arrived and we were asked if we needed any sauces or other condiments, all that was asked for was some vinegar (chips were on one of the meals!) -this appeared almost instantly. During the main course both Danni and Nayel politely checked that all was good, was the food as we wanted - of course it was so we complimented the (new) chef. We finished our main course and ever attentive Nayel cleared the plates asking if we wanted any desert? Two of us had desert (again excellent) whilst one decided on a cappuccino instead, joking 'please bring plenty of sugar', she does have an exceedingly sweet tooth! At the end of our meal whilst clearing the plates we chatted with Nayel saying how much we had enjoyed our lunch. The bill arrived, again what we had expected, we paid this ensuring a suitable gratuity was given in appreciation of the service we had. All in all a totally happy time was had by all.

We have eaten here many of times in the past with our family, easy access for our daughter who is in a wheelchair. Staff are friendly and welcoming especially (steph). Food is always on point and reasonably priced.

A lovely dinner..the signature burger was fantastic and the service was very good. Thank you. I will be visiting again to try some of the other menu choices.

Lovely service from Danni & Steph today. Made to feel most welcome. The food was very good too. Excellent for a business working lunch.

First time trying their breakfast and we were really impressed.

Danni, Tina and Jenny were amazing at looking after us all. We needed space for a wheelchair and they arranged an appropriate table to accommodate us all. They were so friendly and very attentive. Can't thank them enough. A lovely place 😊

**Disappointed and Unwelcome** I've been to The Royal Oak a few times with my family, and while we’ve always enjoyed the atmosphere, our most recent visit left us feeling deeply disappointed. Unfortunately, it wasn't just the food that fell short this time; the way we were treated by a particular member of staff was truly disheartening. As a family with young children, we understand that kids can be a bit energetic at times, but it's nothing unusual for a family-friendly establishment. However, this staff member seemed to have little understanding or patience for that. What made it even more concerning was that on previous visits, we’ve seen the same person be completely fine with other families and their children. The only noticeable difference between us and them was my Indian heritage, which left us feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome. The food, too, was not up to the standard we've come to expect. What was once an enjoyable meal was now dry and lackluster, and the overall experience felt like a far cry from the pub we used to look forward to visiting. I would hope that The Royal Oak can address these issues—both in terms of the food and the way their staff treats all customers equally. Until then, I'm not sure we'll be coming back anytime soon.

Great service, fast and friendly.

This evening myself, my husband and son went out for a last minute meal. We were greeted by Steph who was absolutely lovely from beginning to end. The food was amazing and it was just a lovely relaxed evening. Thank you Steph & Kelvin for such a nice meal. Xx

Great polite service from danni nayel Wonderful setting and great food

Amazing food and super service. Steph and dani in particular were both great and made lots of effort to interact with my toddler as well. Very welcoming atmosphere- will be back v soon
