The Chessington Oak in Kingston upon Thames

What a great place to meet friends and family. All staff was so very welcoming. Everything was amazingly perfect. Thank you

Came here with my family for a meal and we had a wonderful time! The staff were so lovely and the food was wonderful! Will absolutely be back!

Very nice Lunch, friendly service and good value for money. We often stop after visiting Chessington.

Another great dinner. Great food and really good drinks.

Great place fast service and delicious food definitely going back

Lovely pub in chessington, good food and delicious cocktails. Reasonably priced for deals on cocktails and shots and staff are great too!

Visited the other day to catch up with family. Had a tasty lunch and staff very friendly. Would recommend a visit.

Lovely family friendly pub. We felt welcomed and valued from entering to dining. The food was great value and plenty to chose from. We will definitely go back

Always had a good pint and food👍👍👍👍

Sadly food really gone down hill last few months, last weeks meal undercooked , wrong portion size just really unpleasant meal sadly as liked this little find ,

My wife and I had lunch here recently and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the speed of service. The staff were great as well. We will certainly return. BUT, be careful to give your car registration number at the bar or (like me) you will receive a demand for £80 from a parking firm. Fortunately, the pub manager made it go away.

Thankyou to the Chessington oak For our Xmas do! What a brilliant atmosphere and lovely people serving thanks again

We came for our Christmas meal and had the 3 courses for £16.95. The staff were friendly and the food was good and of course, great value. However, it took almost 3 hours for us to receive our 3 courses. It would have taken even longer if we didn't stand waiting by the bar for our dessert, which we took to go. Although we booked and pre-ordered, we had to order again on arrival and the kitchen couldn't find one of the desserts, so it seemed a bit pointless. We ordered 2 veggie burgers with dairy cheese and no onion. Both came with onion and one had vegan cheese. Not a terrible evening, but won't rush back.

Recently had our football doo here and it was a perfect night all round 10 out of 10

Went to the pub for a Christmas event. Great food, service and scene. Live music and reasonable priced.

We recently had our football Christmas doo at the chessington oak and they made it a night to remember great food, great service, friendly staff all in was a great night

A lfirst visit for us … omg the 2rib beef skillet was amazing.. tasty melt in the mouth delicious .. great atmosphere families Xmas music .. staff very busy but polite very helpful.. well done everyone we had a great evening… see you next time John the chef. Too job !!

We recently visited The Chessington Oak and was impressed by their diverse menu, catering to various dietary needs including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Excellent food and great service. The chef Sophie and the bar staff were first class. Would definitely visit again. Thanks

Attended the chessington oak for lunch. The staff were very welcoming and the food was lovely and hot. Will definitely return

Once again I am very happy with my experience at the chessington oak, the staff were very friendly and polite the pub had very pretty Christmas decorations. We came and dined for two and ordered a mega mixed grill and the boss burger which were absolutely fantastic, my steak was cooked to perfection and the prices are very reasonable. Carlos, Tom and the crew were very helpful and made my time here wonderful, would definitely recommend and will be back soon

I recently visited this pub and had a fantastic experience! The place was impressively clean and organized, which made for a really welcoming atmosphere. Tom, the bar staff, was especially kind and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. His friendly demeanor added to the overall positive vibe of the pub. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to anyone looking for a great night out!

The Chessington oak is a very welcoming pub from the outaide and in, the staff and also the regulars. The food was excellent and didn't need to wait too long, however the staff are very good at communicating and if there is a wait on food they will keep you updated as much as possible, the drinks and food are very reasonably priced and have a wide range of draughts and bottles. They even have a wide range of kids food and drinks as they have they're own menu. They show most sports from football to even f1 so I must say due to the new management the pub has improved massively so thanks to Carlos, Tom and the team for a very pleasant experience. 10/10

Love it here :D the vibe of people mixing with eachother aswell is so lovely . Food is absolutely delicious too

I loved the grilled chicken breast from Chessington Oak, it was so so lovely and the staff was welcoming and nice and made my experience great. would definitely go again

once again i am very pleased with coming here. The staff and management were very polite and the food was immaculate. i could not find one thing wrong with it. The restaurant was very clean and tidy and the drinks and food were very reasonably priced. I am very happy with the service that i received and i will definitely be returning very soon. Thanks to all of the staff for making my time there amazing.

Bar staff were polite and friendly, food was delicious and came out in a timely manner

Attending with my two children on a night a big football match was playing - I was a little dubious. However cannot recommend enough great family-friendly environment. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great watching the football with children present. Would definitely recommend it and look forward to attending again.

As always Carlos the chef cooked an amazing dinner,! Spot on, always quality tasty food at a great price, all bar staff friendly and a great pub, well recommended !!

Really great food, kind staff and a lovely pub all around!

Waited 45 minutes, then asked how long food would be as there as no one else eating. Was told they were plating up. 20 minutes later most of the food come, and 10 minutes after the rest. Burger was burnt, chicken was burnt, and steak that was medium to well done was rare. Hair on the plate of one meal. No one come to even ask if we were OK with the meals. Raised concerns to be told sorry nothing we can do. Worst meal I have ever had and regret going anywhere near the place.

Had dinner, carlos the gm cooked me a lovely steak egg and chicken. very nice atmosphere and great service by jack taylor and emma!

Amazing food and service by carlos and the team!!! would absloutely reccomend. Good atmosphere and very friendly and nice people, bar has a good wide selection of drinks as well and prices are very reasonable!

The atmosphere is lively and friendly, the food was amazing especially for the price. The staff provide brilliant service and the pool table/darts board alongside the events make it that bit better. Overall would definitely come here again

When I came here the pub was very tidy and clean, the staff very nice and welcoming the food is amazing and on point and they have got a high range of drinks that are all reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend

Lovely meal, very welcoming staff. Able to eat being gluten free, dairy free AND vegetarian! Not just ‘eat’ but it was very tasty. Good prices. Were helpful putting a candle in my daughters’ pudding for her birthday. My free from pudding was gorgeous. Lovely generous helpings in the sundaes. Perfect for after a day in the theme park too before the journey home and skip the traffic.

I thought it had a very rough atmosphere service was very slow we booked but they did not check mine and my 3 year olds birthday on the computer also the meal we ordered was missing items and my child meal was supposed to come with a pudding never arrived

Brilliant lunch with the family. Thanks to Jack, Carlos and Dom for the service

Took my young daughter for a meal. Food was perfect and fab service. Atmosphere was building for England Netherlands. It was really friendly and prices sensible.

Good variety of meals on the menu. Tasty salad bowl! Carlos & bar staff were friendly. Would definitely go for lunch again!

amazing food, great price. carlos and bar staff were very friendly.

I go to this pub on a regular basis whether it be lunch/dinner with the family or drinks with my friends it’s the best place to be! The food is amazing and the atmosphere is a vibe especially when they have bingo night and karaoke

Where to start well positives 1 star for friendly staff but there it ends. Went in for a family meal on a Thursday evening cue very drunk locals, copius swearing and tepid food. Now topped off with a Euro car parks parking fine - no obvious signage in car park, no obvious signage in the pub, no advice from bar staff. May be better at lunchtime but evenings for family I'd swerve. Oh and I'd walk unless you want a very expensive bite to eat.

This is a great pub, with a huge selection of drinks and food. Steak was cooked to perfection and fish and chips spot on! Does have a nice chill restaurant side and bar/sports side. Good atmosphere and good service

Pub looks nice but no chicken ? Didnt stay went elsewhere .

Jack Anna and Susan, best bar peeps in the world 🌎

The staff : Emma , Susan’s , Jack & Tash has been so amazing very helpful & caring too, also very supportive! The Atmosphere is brilliant

Great staff and service from jack and the team

Chefs; Giri and Jon were fantastic and the servers Jack, Emma and Tash couldn’t do enough for us. Great experience and excellent food.

All was good until we ordered the food. Not only did we have to wait over an hour because they forgot our order, the food that arrived was disgusting. A good place for a pint, but do yourself a favour and do not eat there.

Just had the best steak I've had at any pub! Cooked to perfection 👌 on a busy night. Everyone's plates were clean

Went for dinner before bingo where Karen is so good at putting this together every other Thursday and there was a birthday in which the bar staff made such an effort to make it more special. Food is really good. Lauren is so so good at her job and really makes a karaoke night more fun as she is so good at getting involved with not only loving her job but to give all customers her time and laughs with them all.

Staff always nice and work as well as they can under pressure. We come here for the football games, and on nice days as the seating area outside is nice and open. Was served by Jack several times, and was pleasantly surprised at his knowledge of every regular customer’s orders and attention to detail. Would highly recommend!

Would absolutely give it a no star. The main point of this place is to have drink and food. After an hour wait which it wasn’t busy either and only being served the kids meals, 10 minutes later questioned where the adult meals are, they had been forgotten. Gave up and had a refund on the adult meals.

A great karaoke night Saturday night nice people cocktails not bad price either

Im a regular & im always more happy when i visit when im served by young Val he is a great character behind the bar making drinks & on hand to help his colleagues... many times has handled difficult situations impressively acting way above his pay grade. The food top class for the price & the loyalty scheme is a great thing to be using! Happy days all round

Attended the Chessington Oak for a 60th birthday party also had great entertainment with the ub40 night on Saturday 3rd August 2024 - the staff were professional and pub was kept up to clean standards, the birthday girl had a fab night also. The buffet food was very good selection - Will be returning for day to day food and drinks on a normal day/evening😊

I came in yesterday for a meal with 2 friends. Was told a wait time of 45 mins for food.. bit long but was happy to wait. I’d asked for 3 drinks & the bartender had to get the supervisor from delivering food to make the drinks. He whipped up 3 killer cocktails & appreciated our patience explaining as the bar staff are new… Food came out a bit later than 45 mins but we were offered a free side or drink for waiting.. instead we asked for a takeaway box as we had places to be after… good food, nice drinks but you could see this was service was a 1 man show & could do with an extra pair of hands. Nice vibe in the bar area / pool table where we sat.. will be back again.

I just flew back to the uk yesterday, popped in with my son for a bite to eat and a drink or two. There was one bar staff member young guy in his early 20s who actually knew what he was doing. I saw he had to be dragged back from serving tables because the other two bar staff members were swimming in orders and we wasn’t getting served I think he was a supervisor as he was all over the bar and flirt handling orders taking food to tables making sure everyone was served and got their food. My question is to management and owners why would you only have 1 person who actually knows what their doing in front of house? I presume a lack of care by the owners but service was good my son ordered a burger came out well.

We celebrated a birthday there, and I must say, the service was truly exceptional. Despite the bustling atmosphere and the fact that one staff member (Val) was managing the floor alongside two new starters, he went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience. He frequently checked in on us, making sure we were enjoying ourselves and asking if we needed anything. The cocktails he crafted were nothing short of amazing, and his friendly banter kept us laughing throughout the evening. We left with smiles on our faces, grateful for such a memorable night.

Food was absolutely fine but having a server swearing, in front of my kids ain't on. Young lad, early 20's. Wasn't our fault they were low on staff but to be swearing when delivering drinks to the table and at the bar is disgusting. We spent a lot of money, with 10 people dining and was shocked at the service. As we are staying around here for two days we came back the next day because the food was good, hoping it was just an off day, the same server was in a better mood, still not great but certainly better but the wait on food was over 1 1/2hrs!

Great if you want to take turns watching each other eat or pick 4 different meals because there wasn't much in stock. Followed by 2hr wait for food, the couple behind us were waiting 45mins for ice cream! On the upside, I learnt a few new swear words from the guy stomping around delivering food. The bar maid was nice and polite, and the other staff were friendly enough just a shame the other fella had the customer service skills of spitting cobra. Better off at beefeater

We had dinner here last weekend as a large group (9 adults, 5 kids and a baby) after a day at Chessington World of Adventures. I appreciate that they were able to accommodate us on a Saturday night as nowhere else near the theme park was able to. The service was excellent - our server Jack was rushed off his feet attending to us and the chef Carlos did a good job keeping up with so many different dishes. Food was decent, standard family pub fare and hit the spot after a long day. I think everyone was happy.

Very fast and nice the food was good lots to pick from and very filling

Food excellent and the service brilliant. Will definitely eat here again..

Food was great I had the salmon it was lovely. Quick service and nicely presented

Abit busy on arrival and lots of regulars at the bar abit intimidating to start on first entry but overall happy environment and once it was quieter it was much better . Food amazing. Big up Jack Jon and Carlos. Yessss!!

Good value tasty well presented food, good options and good portions.

Very nice lunch. My dog was made to feel welcome too and given a bowl of water. Quick service and very nice food, served hot. Laura was really friendly and helpful too.

Came here for lunch in the sun. Beer garden is wonderful. Laura served us she was so polite and friendly. Would highly recommend for a nice affordable meal and drinks

Had a lovely meal with my co worker before our shift, Laura was more than accommodating ! Running around doing the most for us both, such good vibes, amazing food, lovely pub and good prices !!!

Very good service very friendly staff especially laura she very helpful and Friendly. Food was delicious very good value definitely will come again

First time visit for this lovely pub Went with wife and her sister and brother Order two fish and chips, one scampi and chips and I had medium rare steak We all could not fault the well presented dishes and they all very much enjoyed For dessert we had chocolate fudge cake and ice cream and also my brother-in-law and sister-in-law had the chocolate sundae They were all fabulous and could not be faulted Will definitely return to this well run establishment

Large local pub.Ample parking and alot of seating.Very good menu with alot of choice.Meals very well priced with 241 offers on certain days.Staff very friendly.

The staff were very helpful and nice. Also the food was also top notch

Good food, a bit of a wait but the staff more than made up for it. Thank you Val and Jas for being so kind. Amazing service

Amazing service. Stacy is amazing helped us throughout our whole visit. Even cooked our food which was delicious. Couldn’t have asked for a better meal experience. Val was amazing he gave great service

The food was okay...Jack at the bar was very accommodating.

I came in on the 27th of June with some friends and family. The service was quick and a lovely supervisor Jess served us she was very polite and make sure everything went smoothly. The food wasn’t amazing but Jess make sure we where taken care of

Lauren was amazing and the food was amazing. Will be coming back

Went for drinks on Saturday night. They had karaoke on. Was a right laugh for me and my friends, everyone got stuck in. Very nice pub and staff.

My local pub, best management and staff in the area. Highly recommend

We came in here for food and it was really nice. The food was hot when coming out. The wait wasn’t too long at all. All of the staff are very polite.

The burger... oh my God... an hour wait in a deserted pub for a burnt bun charred and disgusting. Yet the chips stone cold. No check back. No one could care less. A table of 9 people adds 1 to 1.5 hour delay to a simple chicken burger. Told the guy it was burnt and hideous - but he laughed and walked off saying "yeah I'll let the chef know"!! Place is empty as can see in photos, imagine the delay if 2 or 3 tables turned up! No one checked if food was good, but even if complain are dismissive. Recommendation: Save your money, do not visit. Not worth it.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Got served by Laura. She was really helpful and polite. Service with a smile. Food was delicious, hot and tasty and such a good price! Thank you to the Chef Dave. Will definately be coming again and will recommend to family and friends.

Lovely evening at the oak with my grandad whose a local (Dave) and the family, yummy food, will definitely come back for dinner again.

Myself and my mother came to the Chessington Oak for celebratory meal and drink. The atmosphere was amazing atmosphere that was inviting and friendly

It’s my local! Wouldn’t have it any other way!

Really nice pub not far from Chessington Park with reasonably priced food and very quick service. Jack the server made us feel so welcome and Dale the chef prepared the food within 10 mins. Would recommend coming here if your staying in the area

Wow, the Oak have improved so much over the last couple of months. Food have really improved and we love the entertainment nights with the DJ, bingo nights and darts. James you have really turned the place around. Top customer service from Stacy the assistant manager who is always full of smiles and top banter. Roll on the next Dj night.

This is clearly a local pub serving food in a rather tired grey building with similarly tired decor. But see beyond that, and it is friendly and clean...and has really good food from a wide menu that will please all tastes. Plus the prices are very reasonable. Service was pleasant, but meal was slow to arrive. Perhaps it was the time of day midweek. There is a small car park for patrons. I will be going back.

Took the family for a meal, done the food and drink order through the QR code on the table waited nearly 3/4 hour for food to arrive didn't even get our drinks until I approached staff food came and big disappointment rice over done from the microwave I suppose another plate cold food my steak well done not medium rare, and hunters chicken make your own mind up 😠

I recently had the pleasure of being served by Suzan at a sizzling pub, and the experience was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, Suzan’s warm and friendly demeanor made us feel right at home. Suzen's service was prompt and efficient, ensuring our drinks were never empty and our food arrived hot and delicious. Her professionalism and genuine care for her customers truly stood out. She managed to create a welcoming atmosphere that made our visit memorable. Overall, Suzan is a fantastic asset to the pub. Her dedication to providing top-notch service and her positive attitude make her a standout in the hospitality industry. I highly recommend seeking out Suzen for an outstanding dining experience.

Laura was the best bar women , she was very polite and attentive just a ten out of ten server and the food prepared by Dave and Jon tasted immaculate

Lovely little pub Laura was so accommodating

Great choice of food at a very reasonable price

Great service from Laura and food from dave. My friend was a chef and he was impressed.

Food was really nice and price was amazing!

Good people and great atmosphere. Welcomed me as a stranger felt like part of the family instantly.

The food from John was tasty as per usual and the service from Laura from start till finish was brilliant, so attentive. 10/10 for food and service
