Lovely wee pub, we went for late afternoon drinks. Very friendly service, we sat outside even although it was cold but very good outside heaters. Definitely recommend 🏴😘

Cosy, rustic pub with the prettiest beer courtyard in town….. and it’s a Fullers pub, so great beer. Bar staff and dogs are friendly.

This pub is worth seeking out, it has a wonderful comfy interior, friendly bar staff, great range of hand pumped ales and lots of chilled bottled beers if that's what floats your boat.

Called up and asked to speak to the landlord/landlady as I had an interest in hosting a private event at the pub that I wanted to discuss. The lady who answered the call wouldn’t let me speak and said they don’t do sales calls and hung up on me, though it wasn’t a sales call.. bit weird tbh. Oh well, I’m sure there are other pubs in Guildford who will be more friendly and open to this as it’s nothing strange or out of the ordinary for people to host functions at pubs!

The Oak remains a lovely traditional in the centre of Guildford. Set back from the busy High Street behind Holy Trinity church it is an oasis of tranquility. It serves a lovely range of beers including HSB, ESB and more.

Went there for the first time last night and was really impressed. The beer garden is small but very nice. One thing I wanted to applaud is their selection of low-alcohol beers. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this many in a pub. I wasn’t drinking last night but didn’t feel like I missed out as there were so many good options to choose from!

This is the 2nd year running that a group of us (6 men of a ‘certain age’) have gone for Christmas dinner. The food was once again excellent - as was the service of our ‘hostess’ (Elie). The only marginal ‘downside’ was that - because the bar was so busy - we couldn’t be offered ‘table service’ for replenishment of our drinks. That meant that one of us had to stand in a queue for 10 minutes in the middle of our meal to get served with our drinks. Not ideal.

I've been drinking in the Royal Oak, on and off, for over 20 years and have seen it go through loads of phases of being bad, OK, good and great. Each has been attributable to the landlord and right now, Russell has the place at an all time high. Wet pubs are few and far between these days as making them pay is hard, but the Royal Oak proves you can. Maybe it is down to the great idea of allowing customers to order in from their favourite takeaway. I've never seen anyone do so, but when a pub can't make food pay so it's not worthwhile, what a great idea.

Although it's a small pub, what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for with its charm and fantastic service from its staff. Offering a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and located just off of the High Street, The Royal Oak is definitely the place to go for drinks with friends. The only downside is that they don't provide food but you're than welcome to bring your own food.

Saturday afternoon visit after having some lunch else where. Been so long since we last were here. This is a lovely traditional old fashioned pub hidden behind Holy Trinity Church on the High Street. It doesn't do food, just crisps, etc. Open fire and old-fashioned High back winged chairs (that could do with some major tlc). Lovely bar staff so friendly and chatty. We'll worth a visit

I said I was looking Fullers ESB and the bar tender came up with a fanciful story about how it’s no longer made (which of course is not true) - told the owner he should educate his staff which he said he won’t pass on my comments. The beer they had London Pride was awful (and no I didn’t take it back) I left the pub instead.

Been coming here for nearly 20 years on and off, and seen the pub itself go through a number of image / service / food approaches over the years. One thing that lets it down these days is the lack of customer service - case in point standing at the bar for 10 minutes waiting for whomever is on duty that day to reappear and serve. 9 times out of 10 it's a team member having a chat outside and neglecting the bar - well surely of you're on duty, your priorities are making sure the customers are looked after? Fantastic array of products and good beer - get the attention to detail with the service and you'll be laughing.

I have been walking past this pub for about 40 years and never been in. I eventually ended up there last night (a Saturday). It has beautiful old beams on the ceiling and arm chairs round a fire place which looked very cosy. There’s a few tables out the back which overlook an old graveyard which is a bit different! There’s a great choice of drinks and snacks. A few board games knocking about. A very enjoyable experience. We only stayed for one pint as we were doing a bar crawl but will definitely be returning

Spontaneous date night. Popped in, on the off chance as we were staying in the hotel next door. They managed to squeeze us in (I would suggest making a booking as it was so busy) and I’m so grateful they did! Food was first class, I highly recommend the scallops. Great service, with a smile, from our lovely waitress (Ellie). The place was really busy and it had a great atmosphere. We will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely sunday lunch at the Stag on the River. We had the vegan roast and also the pork roast which were both very nice, albeit a little overpriced for what you get. Parking is also limited so get there early or park round the corner over the Eashing bridge. The staff were friendly and helpful and we requested extra spuds and yorkies which we were provided complimentary with the meal. Would definitely come back for dinner another day. Thank you.
