Not been there since 1976 when I lived next door at 76 Rossington and the pub was the Shooting Star.

This was my first visit to The Oak Pub, it's really nice looking from the outside and really nice inside. The bar is superb, nicely lit up, many furnished tables and chairs arranged throughout, many big TV 's that are easily seen throughout, nice choice of music. There is also a nice grassed area out front and benches to sit outside, also a nice seating area to the side of the pub. The front door entrance is ramped, wheelchair and mobility scooter friendly, there is a pool table and darts area... It's so clean. It is child friendly. The lady managing the pub is professional, efficient and friendly, friendly people. However, food is not available. Such a nice experience. Sincerely, Arnold.

Very friendly and pleasant local. Good range of drinks and John Smiths on draught and also do bottled ale. Many years ago the pub had a bad reputation but 13 years later it is a great family area. Love the board games and as it's in walking distance we shall be coming Mike often to make up for the 10 plus years we didn't. Lovely done out outside seating area with cosy and covered bench seats. Decor all brand new and clean !

Been a long time since I last visited this pub. Drunk in here quite often when living in the area. It was a disappointment to see the state of the pub now. Unfriendly staff that made me feel ill at ease. The way they treat some patrons is shocking. Keeping tables and toilets clean don't seem to be high on their list. It will need a change of personal before I return.

В принципі звичайний бар. Як більшість в Англії. Чисто, не дорого. Обслуговування, як в Англії. Поки не покличеш, не підійдуть.

My partner and I was walking past after a dog walk nearby and we noticed that The Oak did a Sunday roast at a good price. I popped in to ask if our dog was welcome into the pub and the bar staff were more than happy for us all to go in. The pub was clean, a nice atmosphere and barstaff friendly. The lady behind the bar sorted out a bowl of water for the dog after we ordered our drinks and food. Very impressed with the Sunday Roast! Great price, good portions, taste great and we didn't leave hungry! There was a Pool table so we stayed for another pint and a game of Pool. The staff there made us feel welcome and we have decided to come back with other family members to experience a 'Great British Sunday Roast' I highly recommend The Oak for a Sunday Roast Dinner

Very friendly pub with lovely staff. Good music and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Got to say the food is amazing. I have had their Sunday Roasts and the casserole, both dishes were homemade and very tasty. I will definitely be going back.

Most reviews praising this place are years old. The place is now a dump. Service is terrible, staff are rude if they don't know you. Don't order any food, you will regret it. I just can't find one good thing to say about the place.

Visited the pub in June. If you are not a local, I'm afraid you will be insulted. Ordered a drink and was going to order food. The staff treated me like dirt and made me feel afraid for my safety. This place needs to be closed down. I strongly advice people to stay away.

The most unfriendliest pub I have ever been to. Difficult to get served, rude staff and unfriendly atmosphere. I feel sorry for anyone drinking in this dump. Thankfully it won't be me.

A friendly pub stuck in the middle of a housing estate at Rossington avenue. Its only failing from my point of view is that it doesn't serve food hence only 3 stars.

No character but clean. Very quiet during Covid. I don't imagine it would normally be quiet. Staff was not the most welcoming to a talking teddy bear, but a customer was. The pub is opposite the 292 bus terminus, so useful is for seeing if the bus is getting ready to leave. I've not eaten but looking at the menu and the food being shown on the videos for the pub and the faint image of a pizza on the menu, there seems to be a mismatch. I guess the menu was using a stock photograph of a pizza that is not on the menu. Shame, it looked quite good in the photo! I don't imagine this would be a gastro pub, but more standard pizza, burgers and chips.

One of our teen group was struggling at the South mimms services as he is gluten free and couldn't eat, the general manager saw and overheard the lad struggling withbthe other vendors so she reopened her kitchen ( had closed ) and made him a gluten free pizza and wouldn't take payment for it..... 11/10 service, what an absolute superstar you have leading that restaurant. She deserves some praise for that. The pizza was also superb. Thank you so much.

We ordered online on a v busy Saturday. The web site said 45 mins and it arrived just a little later. Something on my order didn't go through so I rang them up and added it. As they were so busy, it was missed on delivery but I rang them and they dropped it straight here. Customer service 100% Food is fab Thank you Sea Chef!

we been a few times but noticed sometimes the price of coffee changes,eg small americano hot milk £3 10 sometimes £3 40 admiited its only 30 p difference but y does the price change as we drink in.Also croissants eat in £2 80 out £ 2 95 if they change because of VAT in or out then your menu should be more explicit.

We came to the fish and chips shop obviously for some fish and chips and we got what we ordered. Service was slightly slow, but what do you expect from a friendly and talkative cashier. It's a small business and is rarely busy.
