We both had lunch and had the crispy Brie starter which was excellent. I had the very cheese burger and my wife had the bbq burger with back bacon. Loads of chips and beer battered onion rings. Excellent is all I can say but my personal preference would have been to have a had less chips. The burgers were nice and thick and very good quality. We both plumped for the Eton mess strawberry cheesecake which tasted homemade. At the moment it was all table service but all available tables for booking were occupied which just shows how popular this place is. Excellent food and excellent service. We will be back soon.

On holiday in the area for a week from South Wales We had booked this restaurant on recommendations of reviews we weren’t disappointed the service was amazing the only thing I would have liked is that they had updated to tell customers that it was a reduced menu I was going out for a steak but never the less very enjoyable thank you .Debbie

My wife and I ate at this PH a couple of times and found it very satisfactory. The food was very nice (Pub Food) and the service was excellent, I wouldn't hesitate to return to this pub/restaurant as the atmosphere was also very nice. It's always booked up, so that must tell you something.

So this was the first family meal out since lockdown began back in March 2020. Having eaten here on numerous occasions before and never having any issues, I thought we couldn’t go wrong. Kids were excited, hell we were excited, we got to go out to eat! I knew in advance that they had changed the menu or limited to food on offer which which is fine but if your going to do that make sure what you serve is top notch. What did we order? I chose the chicken, bacon and leek pie, child 1 had the crock pot, child 2 the kids burger and husband also had a burger. The only person that enjoyed their meal was child 1.My pie was tasteless, the chicken was dry and I mean DRY and one point I couldn’t even bite through it (which led me to spit it out into tissue lovely) I had all of two massive dry chunks of bacon and very little sauce in the pie.....did I mention it was dry? The rest of the bowl was filled with mash (which was fine) and hard peas and literally 4 slices of carrot and minimal gravely. Now I never ever complain about anything I’m a “shut my mouth and don’t complain, otherwise they will spit on my dessert sort of person” but I was not about to pay £15 for eating a pile of mash. The girl was very polite and said I should of said when someone checked on us as they would of replaced it. Well that would of also of been fine had someone of checked on us. Child 2 and husband said the burgers were too cooked and child 2 didn’t bother eating it. Now I get this is a gastro pub and pub food is pub food but to prevent anyone enduring the same DO NOT HAVE THE PIE or burger. The fajitas looked nice coming out. Unfortunately I’m also a “one bad experience, will never return sort of person” so that will be the last time I visit the Place.

Couldn't recommend the Oak enough. Paul and his staff are always one step ahead. Food is always outstanding and the service is just as good. Made a last minute decision to go therefore didn't book, but they still managed to fit me in even though it seemed to be so busy. There's a number of other restaurants to go to locally, but I always choose the Oak as you never leave dissatisfied.

Great food, excellent service and delightful to be back indoors at The Oak! We visited on the evening of Monday 17 May, the day that pubs and restaurants were permitted to serve indoors once again. Upon entering we were escorted to our table following the one-way system used to reduce congestion, and it worked well. Our drink orders were taken and menus and wine lists proffered including a bin-ends list of wines which we took up on. There were 6 in our party and only 2 of us had starters, the Chilli Nachos and Calamari, both good. The mains included burgers, Chilli Crockers, Cajun Chicken Salad and Chicken Pie, cleared plates all round.The service throughout was totally COVID-19 compliant and made everyone feel secure in the surroundings. A big thank you to the management team and waiting staff on their professionalism.All agreed it was a welcome return to eating out and we all look forward to our next visit.

We just visited the Oak on the Green for the second time in a fortnight and had the grill Cajun chicken salad (again!) It was the best salad I've ever had and I rarely order salad when out dining. We had one each and shared a side of house fries. It was more than enough for a healthy appetite and absolutely delicious in the bargain. We will definitely be back.

The ftw and I had just enjoyed a morning stroll and popped in to the Oak to see if it was possible to have an pre-lunch aperitif. We were greeted by Paul the manager and after explaining that we only wanted to have a drink he sat us down and advised us of the guest ales, allowed me a sample and I had a very nice couple of pints (not driving has its upside) whilst the ftw had a couple of glasses of Sauvignon Blanc. Set us up nicely for our roast that was cooking whilst we enjoyed our pub-time. Made for a lovely start to our relaxing Sunday.

Visited today with my partner and got the instant feeling of the place being very overrated! We visited on recommendation and from the moment the unhappy waitress greeted us we regretted the choice. The waitress grunted at us the whole time and clearly didn’t want to be there. She practically threw the cutlery at us. The food was not up to standard, my partners starter was underwhelming with a wilted salad and 4 bits of cauliflower. Wont be visiting again.

What a great night. Great service, food and ambience, especially within Covid rules. I had the porterhouse medium rare and it was superbly flame grilled with a nice bearnaise sauce on the side. My partner had the mushroom fajita served on a dramatic ornate iron plate with multi choice fillers. Kids thought burgers better than McD’s and kept them quiet. Great night had by all

Food was very good and the service was excellent. We arrived a little early and were directed to a table in the bar where we had a drink while waiting. When we went through to the restaurant the table was far too small for our group of 4 and juggling various dishes and wine bucket made things awkward but as I said the food was good and the service excellent.The one big issue with us are the toilets, which wère dirty when we used them on our arrival and still dirty when we used them before we left. The gents urinal is not fit for purpose in this day and age. Apart from anything else Covid 19 can be transferred in urine and as the toilets, handles, taps etc had not be cleaned in a very long time in the ladies or gents, this is a very real concern.

Beef burger decent, chicken burger was tiny for £12, and fell apart as over sauced. Chips were greasy and just thrown on. Garlic bread was slabs of bread(need to be cut). Coleslaw heavy on mayo. Nachos were really poor quality for £11. Kids fish and chips seemed good but carrots were old. I actually found it very frustrating.l, as Lacked love, passion and attention to detail. Maybe look at products using.I did give feedback, manager appreciated and agreed they fell short with some aspects. Disappointing as every time ive eaten here with my kids before and has been good. It wouldn’t put me off coming back. Service from waitress was good.If service was bad definitely wouldn’t of returned.

Although the menu is a little smaller than of old, there is still a great choice and you can choose from either the main menu or lunchtime menu with some lighter options. I had a House burger which was excellent and a couple of Bear Island IPAs. The service was spot on and the bill was good too as I used my Birthday Club voucher to get one of the main courses for free! Altogether, a 5 star experience.

We recently visited The Oak on the Green in a last minute decision to take advantage of the 'Eat out to help out' scheme, and to celebrate a family birthday. Although we had not booked, and the restaurant was very busy, the manager bent over backwards to accommodate us and shuffled some tables to make room for us in the bar area, without infringing upon the one way social distancing floor markings.The meal itself was excellent, and served by a handful of lovely waiting staff who couldn't have been more helpful.Everyone in our group had the perfect evening and were made to feel very welcome and completely safe, without the very clear and appropriate covid restrictions detracting from our experience. We will certainly be back.

This place is gradually getting worse. It used to be top notch. After visiting today this will be my last visit to the oak on the green. Long wait for drinks, then a long wait until they took the order for starters. Starters were nice but then a real long wait for mains, so long that I had to ask if it would be much longer. Mains were nice when they eventually arrived. Then we seemed to be forgotten about by the very few waitresses. Had to ask for the dessert menu, then nobody returned to take the order for ages. By the time they arrived to take the dessert order I’d had enough and asked for the bill instead. Once they gave me the bill we were forgotten about again. So I had to go to the bar to pay otherwise who knows how long we would have been there. Nice food. Shocking service, needless to say, no tip and no return.

Great lunch, foid hot and tasty, staff friendly. Loved our dogs. Distancing measures are in place dedpite what another reviewer said. Quite busy but staff coped. Some customers ignored the rules regarding what door to go in and out of even though its clearly marked. No need to wear masks in a restaurant so no need for the staff to, they asked for plates to be passed etc and did not get close to us, drinks served at the table. Nothing whatsoever to complain about.

I took my four grandchildren to lunch at the Oak on the Green today. I am approaching 70 and therefore classed as vulnerable to the virus. If it hadn't been for the fact that I was limited on time and had no wish to disappoint the children, I would have walked out and gone somewhere else. None of the waiters, waitresses or manager was wearing a mask or visors, no temperatures were taken on arrival and we were given no instructions as to hand sanitizers or for completion of track and trace forms, although on the way out we noticed they were on a table in the foyer. The waitresses leaned over us with the food, the cash machine and drinks. and their faces were inches from us. The place was heaving with people passing in all directions and, all in all, it felt very unsafe. As a rider to that, the food was good but I do think the management have let their customers down

We were lucky to get in as we had not made a reservation. On top of this it was a Tuesday which is an eat out to help out scheme day.On arrival we were greeted and told we could eat inside or outside. It had been a very hot day so we decided to eat outside. The waitress soon came and took our drinks order. When she returned our food order was taken. There is a fair choice, most main courses are around the £15 mark.We both ordered the Chicken Bacon and Leek Pie. The pie was delicious, highly recommended, all home cooked.Overall, really enjoyed my first visit, and will hopefully return in the near future, and with the 50% off, it made the eating all the more enjoyable.

Booked up a birthday lunch at very late notice, having been let down at short notice. Was persuaded to go to the oak on the green as it came highly recommended. Was told prior to going, that the portions were very large, but didn’t quite believe it. On arrival the staff were very welcoming, and let us pick our own table which was very nice.Having ordered our starters which came in good time, and off excellent quality, we were ready for our main meals. On the waitress bringing them out, I had to take a second look, as I previously mentioned were huge!!After battling through, which wasn’t a chore, I couldn’t stomach a desert, but did finish off with a lovely cocktail.All in all, this was a lovely date, and can without a doubt say I will be returning.Keep up the good work!!

I was not disappointed as the service I received from joining the birthday club to eating in the restaurant was first class from beginning to end. I emailed Megan after making a mistake with my registration and all was rectified within 24hrs, with a most pleasant return mail. We booked to eat at 19.00 on a Tuesday and I have never seen a pub so busy on a school night. That said it did not prevent us being professionally served and seated. The food was was exceptional and the service second to none. I recommend the Gastro Ribs (great portions) and the chicken burger was also superb in both taste and presentation.

Perfect for a miserable Sunday afternoon. It was lucky we had booked as it was very busy but the service was still good and the food was amazing. I had a steak for the first time in years. I am very fussy with steak as I do not like to see blood but still want it to be juicy. The chef had achieved this and the chips were amazing!!!! The portions were extremely generous and everything was cooked to perfection. Will definitely return :)

Went for a family meal at the best pub in the Village tonight. As usual buzzing atmosphere, staff were so friendly, efficient, chatty and provided excellent service.

Came here today for my birthday with my mrs. She took me out as a treat. It was absolutely lovely, I had the ribs and she had the bangers and mash. It was amazing, the portion size was massive which I loved, and the quality of food was excellent. Honestly, the bangers and mash are the biggest most tastiest bangers you've had in your life!! The ribs were amazing aswell, melt in your mouth, falling off the bone no chewable fat what so ever. The staff were also, smiley, friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back!!!

This pub restaurant is lovely. It has a really great atmosphere and a nice “oldy worldy” decor to it. The food is really yummy that comes out hot and in really big portions. I would say the menu is a little too big and contains so much food you struggle with what to choose off of it. Would be nice to see a menu a little more refined. Having said that, it’s a really great pub with great food and a lovely atmosphere.

This is a great place to eat and the service is impeccable. Great steaks, a little bit more expensive than other places but worth it

Another brilliant visit to The Oak on the Green, Bearsted. We wanted a light snack on Christmas Eve and had the best chicken wings, nachos and chips. Absolutely brilliant atmosphere and super service despite how busy it was. Thanks so much.

Late afternoon meal with the family. The service was efficient and friendly. Knowing how large the portions are, we opted to share 2 starters between the 4 of us. The mains of Skate, BBQ ribs, Fillet Steak and scallops and tiger prawns were all well cooked (again large portion sizes) and very tasty. Would highly recommend to everyone and will be returning soon, hopefully!

Haven’t been for a while but quality has dropped. Prawn cocktail contained 14, (yes I counted them as so few) tiny, supermarket economy size prawns, with 2 massive lettuce leaves and chopped lettuce underneath to fill the glass. Marie Rose was just cheap shop bought with absolutely no flavour or spicing. Burger over cooked and dry, chips over cooked and greasy. Wondered how it was possible for a table to be available so close to Christmas and obviously knowledge of the drop in quality is getting round.

Had a good meal with excellent size portions. Excellent waitress Lesley. Shame about bill which was £14 overcharged. Sorted but I don’t like this.

The restaurant wasn’t too busy when we arrived, but there were a couple of Christmas Parties that arrives that pushed the volume up!

Having been let down by another local restaurant, our party of 8 arrived quite late on Saturday night. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and luckily for us, they had been let down with a booking which left them with a table for 8! We were dealt with promptly and efficiently and had a great meal at a reasonable price.

I have mixed feelings with this one. There’s something for everyone on the menu & it has a lovely country pub feel. The staff were lovely & service great, can you sense a but coming, BUT the portions sizes are just too big. Some people may see this as a bonus so if you like massive portions of good food this is the place for you. This seems like w weird complaint but personally I was done after the starter & only managed a bit of the main which was huge. It’s a shame because I felt that it spoilt the whole meal & I felt like I’d wasted my money. The rest of my group felt the same way so it’s not just me being a pedantic so & so. I would give 3.5 rating if I could.

Not really a great fan of this restaurant but it was booked via another family member and thus visit confirms why I don’t go here! Service was good, drinks were good but the food was Not, Quite a few of us ordered burgers and they weren’t nice, dry and over cooked and not that warm either the steak was ok and portion sizes are plenty but the quality of the food is horrible.

We visited this pub after having lunch at the Fish on the Green next door (same company). Very good atmosphere and frequented by locals on a regular basis, which is a good thing. Dog friendly. Will go and eat there soon. It is interesting that this pub does not do a Sunday Roast lunch, nor is there any sign of Turkey on the Christmas menu. Very good service at the bar and friendly staff. A very good menu, catering for all tastes, including Vegetarian and Vegan.

We chose The Oak on the Green following reccomendations on Trip Advisor and we were not dissapointed. As soon as you walked in the place had the feeling of a quaint old English pub along with the feeling of quality. The food was exceptional and I would not hesitate to recommend to who is anywhere near to call in and sample the excellent cuisine. Thank you all at The Oak on the Green for such a lovely meal which really made my wife and I's first visit to Kent so memorable.

We visited for lunch, family and friends - 7 in the party. Good choices on menu plus Kids menu. The bacon Ceasar salad was dry though with no dressing. Burgers were good and also the bacon jacket bake.

Came here for a family Saturday lunch. The pub itself was cosy and had a good atmosphere. The service always came with a smile. The food was delicious and the portions were huge! The lemon meringue sundae was literally the size of a child’s head. Overall a great lunch! The bill at the end was a pleasant surprise too! We will definitely be coming back.

The ambience in this restaurant is really welcoming and homely, and the range and quality of the meals is great. I've now had the rib-eye on more than one occasion and found it to be great. Curried fish was odd to see in the 'pub classics' section, but was also a tasty dish.

8 of us visited with dogs and enjoyed esting outside. I enjoyed a blue cheese burger and my partner had sausage and mash - we both enjoyed and it's great to find somewhere that allow dogs in the bar and outside.
