Royal Oak in Milton Keynes

Great atmosphere ,Friday night buzzing , lots of people inside the pub and outside in the pods . There was an acoustic singer too! Top place

Been popping in here for a while now, it's one of those hidden gems which you stumble upon in life every now and then. Bar food is exceptional, coffee is phenomenal, and the atmosphere is magnetic.

Pie & Mash night. Lovely food, excellent wine. Helen & her team as always perfect hosts ! So cosy and warm inside, but beautiful pods to sit aside as well.

I absolutely aodre this place, we know some people who live locally and whenever we visit we love to stop here!

Really disappointed with the service here. This was the first time I came to this pub with my friends and was shocked by how we were treated by a member of staff. We were settling into a booth and planned to then go to the bar for drinks before being approached by a female member of staff, who I believe was the owner, asking if we were “with anyone” to which we replied that it was just us. This led to her belittling us and telling us that “this isn’t a playground or youth centre” and that we needed to leave to “make room for real customers”. This women assumed our ages, without checking for ID, even though we are all 19 and 20, and kicked us out because of her prejudice and ageism. I will not be returning here.

Popped in for a drink whilst out on a afternoon stroll with my fiancé we originally just had a drink in mind but we gave into a huge bowls of Nachos and a scotch egg, food was delicious a real little gem of a pub. Great outside seating. We will pop back again.

Stopped for a pint and a bite, and found this gem of a pet-friendly pub. They have awesome outdoor seating in cute pods and their one-item menu is superb! It was called a Yorkshire wrap and had gourmet quality roast veg alongside my choice of roast beef/lamb/turkey. We had a side of the best pigs in blankets I’ve ever had.

My first visit to the area and having a few drinks with family. We stopped at The Royal Oak and stayed for a couple of hours having drinks in one of the pods which is a nice touch. The only disappointment was the fact they had live entertainment but no room to sit/stand to enjoy it so we swiftly left. Would come back

All too predictably, it has become a yuppie pub, not a local pub. So unless you have £££s and remarkable patience, avoid and head into Woburn itself. At least places like the Black Horse in Woburn don't have any misconceptions about what they are. Another chance for Woburn Sands to cater to the mixed economy that is present here bites the dust and another example of locals being pushed out of their own town. So much for the takeover bringing a change to the Royal Oak. I'd give it two out of five but the last pint (Pravho) there on 11/6/22 didn't taste right and my bowels agreed. #SameAsItEverWas

I am a regular… fantastic venue. Helen, Kelly and team are always welcoming. I can’t rate this pub high enough. It’s the furthest walk in Woburn sands for us but always our favourite. Love the events, love the staff, love the atmosphere.

We’d seen the sharing platters on Instagram & kept saying we need to go. Should have gone sooner! They were amazing! They are huge, so go hungry. We loved the atmosphere & the staff really looked after us. I’m going back with my husband because he’s a foodie and he’ll love it, we’ll probably go for the mixed platter as that looked brilliant & perfect for two. Pre ordering is required for the platters. They had the footy & then boxing on this particular night but they’re known for having live music showcasing local talent. Pop in 🍻

Great staff , friendly locals pub where we were made most welcome, totally refurbished so don’t listen to old reviews, beer great and not a foodie pub , but will provide platters with 24 hour notice and have food themed nights , and great well kept ales to boot 🍺

This is the first time we've been back to the Royal Oak since it's refurbishment and the new owners in place. We were having a double celebration & asked Helen to organise the "meat and fish" platter that can be pre-ordered. The food & service were outstanding - the passion from all of the team shines through and I cannot recommend it enough. Well done "Royal Oak" and we'll be back very soon!

Just a run down dump..........sorry bit that is what it is, over sized telly in a tiny tiny pub football and all that crap. Big garden at back but it's s just a waste land.

Micks the host with the most you get what you see,he's like cuprinul he says it how it is.Eat in or take out

If you like proper pubs then you'll love this place. I went to watch a football match and enjoyed the evening so went back the following night. The pub doesn't do food but a fish & chip van pulled up outside, so I sat eating fish and chips while watching football and drinking beer. Thanks to Mick for making me so welcome.

The only pub left in Woburn Sands where you can watch a football match! Enjoyed by many who like to have a pint and a chat about the game!

the oak is just what a pub should be-mad landlord;good craik;good beer;footy in one bar rugger in the other-perfick!!

Had a lovely time with family birthday bash.helpful stuff and friendly.meals were lovely and a competive price.

Bien y mal. Ahora estamos muy acostumbrados a pubs gastrointestinal que era un poco de un choque cultural al entrar en una boozer del pueblo donde el concepto de comida es una bolsa de patatas fritas. Es pubs como éste que aún se cierre con una tarifa de alrededor de 30 por semana. Aún así, la gente de la ciudad parecía que, con un sábado animado multitud para almorzar swigging IPA y vinos blancos grandes mientras vítores rugby en la tele pero en un bar y fútbol en la otra. caer y pruébalo - mientras que aún sobrevive.

He frecuentado esta casa público un número de veces, sin embargo, me pareció que era tiempo de escribir. El ambiente en general es muy agradable, asides de toda la quejarme, pero eso es lo que esperaba cuando tienes un grupo de tíos juntos bebiendo (muy caro) Lagers. TV es medio decente, la compañía medio decente, los cacahuetes y crujientes selección es divino, y celebra los concursos son maravillosos; aunque el kiwi concurso principal no es la más fácil de entender es siempre una sonrisa. El único inconveniente es el encargado, Michael, o Mick como él es más cuidadosamente conocido. Sí, es un hombre muy peculiar. Sí, corre el bar excelentemente. Y sí su maña está bien. Pero, él es un derecho sod mezquinos. Y aunque he estado allí durante años y años, primero viniendo con mi papá, siempre lleva la Mick fuera de mí. Asides desde que es un establecimiento bien vale la pena visitar, ya que le gusta cara cerveza y ser insultadas.
