Well where to start, apon entry we was greeted with welcomed arms, staff were all very polite and extremely friendly, food was 10/10! The pictures speak for themselves! Each dish when served was explained thoroughly, and you can see and taste the passion in each dish! Will definitely recommend to everyone and will definitely be visiting more often!

From the moment we stepped into The Oaks, we knew we were in for a treat. This charming pub combines a warm, inviting atmosphere with a culinary experience that's hard to beat. First off, the ambiance is just perfect. It's cozy and rustic, yet sophisticated - ideal for both casual lunches and special evenings out. The staff greeted us with such warmth and friendliness, making us feel right at home. Now, the food - simply outstanding! Even the sides and condiments are noteworthy. To top it off, their selection of local and craft beers is impressive, and the bartender was knowledgeable, helping us pair our meals with the perfect brews. In summary, The Oaks is a real find. It's a place that cares deeply about the quality of its food and the satisfaction of its customers. We left already planning our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience in a comfortable, welcoming setting!

They don’t answer the phone, we walk 2 miles to get there, and despite having three members of staff there, they told us they were understaffed and couldn’t give us food or drink, we had children under 10 with us. Their tone was partiality aggressive this was around 5:45 on a Saturday. Awful attitude.

Better than most restuarants) as is the service. Can't recommend this place highly enough, hence why we return time and time again.

The best food and table service you’ll find in a pub. Staff very kind and helpful. Amazing food at decent prices. Brilliant atmosphere and location would give 10 stars if I could. Overall the best pub in maple cross. I highly recommend if you’re looking for lunch or just going out for the evening. Solid pub. This miles better than the dumbbell pub that smells of cigarettes and donkey shart.

Such a pity as clearly the owners want to Make a go of this place. They did it up during covid and we were made to feel Welcome. The food is decent we hear (did not try it). However whilst having our drinks the staff started moving tables around - at 9pm. Not just tables but sofas and chairs. One sofa hovering over our head. The doors were left wide open making the pub cold. Apparently they were getting ready for an event the following evening! Totally disregarding those of us in the pub already. Lesson :- Look after the people in the pub, not those who might be coming. For a number of us, this is our nearest pub - but we wont be coming back! Customers lost.

Come to this lovely little village pub for a nice meal only to be robbed. As I left I realised I left my rucksack, I phoned up as soon as I found out and phoned the pub to ask them to leave it somewhere safe and I would pick it up the following day. . After many times coming popping in to ask them if I could collect it I was fed with lies. Only to now be told the cleaners had stolen it and there's nothing they could do about it . No apology and horrible management.

Waited an hour for our food, had an email to confirm it was out for delivery and on route, then all of a sudden it was cancelled. Have been unable to get hold of restaurant. Shocking to say the least! Now we are hungry and it’s too late to order from somewhere else! Never ever have I experienced this before, don’t think we will be returning here again!

Amazing food and friendly atmosphere. We ordered the Oaks Special to share… lamb & chicken shish, kofte, chicken wings, lamb chops and lamb ribs with buttery rice, bread and salad. It’s well worth the price especially as it’s a sharing plate - and we had enough to take away with us. The menu has a good mix of food to cater to all tastes… staff were lovely, we will definitely be going back.

We visited the Oaks recently having been meaning to try it for some time and were very pleasantly surprised at how good the food and service is. We enjoyed it so much we have been back a couple of times since then and found it just as good on each occasion. We found a large selection of Turkish/Middle Eastern dishes with generous portions and freshly prepared. We found Angela and her team very friendly and welcoming. We are looking forward to return soon to try some more dishes on the menu.

Visited for my mum's 50th birthday in July 2021 on a Tuesday. it was fairly quiet, however there was around 11 of us. The food was fabulous, I had the lamb kofte, others had the kleftico, lamb saute, burgers, mixed meze, all commented on how nice the food was. Passion fruit and espresso martinis on draught were great. We then came back the day after for round 2 of food and drinks. Opted for shish wraps and chips, so yum! We will be back!

My first visit was just before lockdown in October and it won't be my last. Excellent food, friendly attentive staff and spotlessly clean with Covid protection rules in place.

Some friends, my dog and I went here for Lunch the other day, we were pleasantly surprised at the vast menu, it was hard to make a choice as so many things were tempting. Two of us had the Chicken Shish, one Mixed Kebab and the other Vegetarian Moussaka. All the meals were delicious and plentiful, served with nice fresh salad and rice and very reasonably priced. Desserts not much choice, but the Tiramisu and Rice Pudding were lovely. Nice atmosphere although not very busy being a weekday lunchtime, loved the Halloween Decorations, especially the old couple sitting at the bar! They have really made an effort for Halloween, so much so we decided to go again tonight for Halloween. Looking forward to eating another delicious meal. Compliments to the Chef and the new owner for making this such a pleasant venue to visit. Well deserved 5 *!!!

We booked the restaurant for Sunday lunch. It was my husband's 65 birthday. We all ordered roast, three beef and one pork. The restaurant was empty when we got there. The staff were friendly. When the dinners came it looked good but the beef was very tough stringy and chewy and like leather. We asked for steak knives but we were still struggling to get any meat. In the end we decided to complain and the waiter asked if we wanted the same we chose chicken and pork. We had to wait a long time for a replacement which totally spoilt the lunch. Half of us were waiting for the other half to finish. My son and his family were waiting to travel up north so we did not have time for dessert. When I went to pay the guy apologised for the meals and took one dinner off the bill. When you pay nearly £17 for a roast you expect it to be better quality. It ruined my husband's 65th birthday celebration.

I cannot recommend this place enough. We recently had the pub exclusively for my brothers wake and Sarah the manager was amazing from start to finish. She put on tea and coffee for after the funeral and then a very tasty buffet, catering for all dietary requirements. She did some lovely touches like supplying the tables with Lilly’s and put a poem we liked on the tables and baked a cake. All the staff were superb and probably very tired by the end of the night. We did my brother proud. I’d like to thank you all very much and will see you again soon - maybe for Sunday lunch :-)

Some good and some bad elements overall. The staff were very friendly and nice, but the service was very slow. It took us 2.5 hours almost for our Sunday lunch which felt very slow as we are are not slow eaters. The starters and puddings were very small and quite expensive. The soup was only a couple of cms deep and although tasty was not very satisfying. We actually complained about the pudding as the crumbles were about 5 mouthfuls and mostly just apple with a very small few crumbs of crumble on top. They took them off the bill with no bother (but otherwise would have been £7!). The roasts were nice- we tried beef, pork and chicken and they were all good but one of the beefs which was very chewy and fatty but this was unlucky as the other beef was nice. Overall we were left disappointed compared to previous visits as it seems to be more expensive, smaller portions and worse quality. We also miss the sticky toffee pudding which they used to do here which was the best I have ever had.

My husband and I agreed that in all our (advanced) years, we have never tasted crackling as delicious- crispy, yet not tooth-breaking, and crunchy all the way through. The vegetables were carefully cooked, with thin new carrots glazed with honey. Usually my husband doesnt eat cooked carrots,but he scoffed all these.The duck and pork pate starter was quite delicious, in that it was cooked with orange,accompanied by soft dates and sour dough bread.No room for a dessert this time.There was no fish on the menu on the Sunday we were there. (Just as well, or we might not have sampled the roast pork!)This simple pub stands on it's own on the corner of the A412 and Coppermill Lane. No view to speak of, but next time, we would walk along the Grand Union canal for our post-prandial excercise.Highly recommended.The pub is quite simple, with a pleasant double-aspect raised area, but no views to speak of.

Where do I start? Christmas Eve and we were the ONLY people in the place, the alarm bells started ringing! We got served drinks at the table after some wait, I don't know why it took so long as there was no one there? It really started coming apart when we started ordering the meal. Half the starters we ordered, the waiter come back from the kitchen and said they had no STOCK. After having now changed my order, I then ordered the Halloumi Cheese starter with sweet chilli sauce. Well the Sweet chilli sauce ended up being tomato sauce, with Tabasco sauce mixed into it....... SHOCKER! I raised this with the "manager" and he said "sorry" in a nonchalant way and moved on.

Visited this restaurant recently for the first time and will not be going again. The restaurant was cold as the heating had not been switched on and when we complained about how cold it was they looked surprised but did switch it on. We were then informed that the food would take an hour as there was a problem with the chef. They could have told us this on arrival but did not bother to do so. Cannot comment on the food as had to leave along with all the others who were there.

Having reviewed this restaurant previously and had a brilliant meal and experience, this was the complete opposite, over 2 hours for the mains to arrive, we had to ask constantly for drink service, food was cold when it eventually arrived, food turned up in Drib and drabs for example the naan bread arrived and the curry 10 mins later, they also for got a meal! In general an absolute disaster of a dining experience.

Alarm bells should have started to ring when we turned up to an empty restaurant. Even the table had not been set up although we had booked. The mains took 2 hours to turn up after we had ordered them. Wouldn’t have been too bad and would have understood if the restaurant was busy, but there was us and 2 other tables that were eating. Staff seemed non interested and kind of like they had given up.

We were passing through and chose this place for Sunday lunch as it was listed as dog- friendly and it looked like it had a lot of greenery around it for a nice post lunch walk. We were not disappointed. Very friendly welcome, nice ambience, offered the dog water. Good menu choice- the usual Sunday roasts offered ( I had a lovely vegetarian Chestnut roast with all the trimmings incl veg gravy and a great yorkshire pudding) and hubby had steak which was a good size and he said was perfectly cooked. Great chips too! Yummy dessert choice. Nice lakeside walks nearby. Will definitely come again if in the area. We both had two courses, and bill was just over £40 incl two pints of beer so we thought this was good value.

The public house is situated just off the A412 and by the road to Harefield. It has a large car park with easy access for the disabled. Inside it is bigger than it looks and is mainly set up as a restaurant. We visited for lunch and found a small menu was provided with a limited choice of items. However the food was freshly prepared and was served very efficiently and was served hot. All staff were very friendly and helpful and knew about the items on the menu. For a quick lunch it is to be recommended.

My husband & I visited the Oaks for lunch taking an old friend with us as we had visited the pub for lunch on a previous ooccasion & found it was quite acceptable. Unfortunately, on this occasion it was appalling, leaving us feeling very eembarrassed as we were treating a friend for lunch. Firstly, our guest noticed that his beer was cloudy, next , my husband & friend ordered fish & chips , well, the portion of fish that they were served looked like it had come from the child's menu as it was so very small & the batter was also very soggy. I ordered the potato & aubergine curry but there was not an aubergine or potato to be seen anywhere in it, only a brown sludge containing a few sugar snap peas & not many of them at that ! It was really quite disgusting. I wish now that I had sent the whole lot back but as we were a treating our friend I didn't want to cause a fuss on this occasion

What a delight.. The lunch menu is priced at £6.95.. I had ham and cheddar pie, which is suet.. Not just a puff pastry and blummin delicious .. The meal that arrived looked and was delicious and I would have happily paid £12 at any other pub.. The staff were friendly and the place was sparkly clean and inviting... 10/10 for a Tuesday lunch

I have been here many times the food is good however it is a little expensive for pub meal, I think it’s the price of drinks that pushed it up. Massman curry is great 👍

Based on Trip Advisor reviews, we opted for The Oaks as a new Sunday lunch selection. We won't return.

Booked here for convenience, half way between offices. Was pleasantly surprised. Catering for a group of 14 is daunting and can be fraught with dishes potentially cold etc. No such worries here. All food delivered hot to the tables and cooked to the individuals liking. Will be back here again!

Friendly service. Should not advertise salmon fish cakes when curry powder predominates. Lunch time breakfast acceptable if small. Being empty at one didn't help atmosphere.

I visited here for the first time with my boyfriend and family this weekend. We haven't been here before and it was shut recently I think it was being refurbished. It's gorgeous inside with a real fire which we sat by and it was super warm!

After many years of great food and service, we were shocked and horrified by the appalling lack of customer service following a terrible JustEat experience..... Despite knowing, and being known by this business for countless years, I am speechless. As it stands they will get no more custom from us, and we will share our awful experience with all our friends....

Must admit the visit didn’t start well. The car park is scruffy with bins, rubbish and sundry old equipment piled up and it doesn’t create a good first impression. Inside the welcome was warm and friendly but the chairs at the table we were shown to were scruffy and very stained. My first beer (London Pride) was sour, probably the end of the barrel, but was changed when I pointed it out and The Scarecrow much better. Not good so far. However, the staff were great and the food very good. Fish and chips was plentiful and beautifully cooked. The Hoisin Belly Pork something different and really tasty. Overall we all enjoyed our visit and would go again.

Tuppence and I took my wife and her 100 year old dad here last Saturday for lunch. We were made very welcome, the meal was first class, the drinks excellent and Tuppence loved the attention and fuss she received. We'll be back!
