The Royal Oak in Dover - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The food was OK nothing special.i would advise anyone who does not like bad language to stay away.we where booked for6.45pm ordered,waited 50 minutes for the meal.only 5 others in the room.would not recommend this pub to anyone.

Very handy for our ramble between Folkestone and Dover. Friendly staff, good service, tasty and reasonably-priced food. My only minor gripe is that I just had peas with my minted lamb and chips, whereas my friend, who had new potatoes instead of chips, got carrots and French beans as well as peas. The staff must have thought that I was fat enough!!

A very friendly pub, great food. Good service. Reasonable price. Would recommend it.even the other guests and regulars very friendly. Will certainly be going back.

First time but we will be back great food, friendly and very welcoming, we rang up on the day and they found us a table, thanks

We visited here today after being recommended, we were not disappointed. Greeted with a very warm welcome and a great atmosphere. The food was 1st class, tasty, hot and extremely good value for money. The landlord, chef and staff were very attentive and eager to please. Looking forward to our next visit.

Absolute spot on Christmas dinner today, really top notch , definitely go again, nothing was too much trouble, top marks 10/10

We popped in for just a drink on a walk, having been told they didn't do food on a Tuesday. Such a bonus to find they were doing theme evenings and that night's theme was Burger Night. We had the halloumi and tikka burgers and both were delicious and piping hot. Lovely to find such an authentic pub and a great welcome.

Vriendelijke mensen en ook nog goed eten. Een goed bord eten met heerlijk vlees en de kinderen vonden de homemade lasagne overheerlijk! Het dessert was ook top!

Unbelievably good food at unbelievably good price. Staff fantastic and must be the best pub food for quality and price I have ever experienced.

Came for lunch without booking, it was very busy but space in the bar was found - which was fine. A lovely traditional home-cooked menu available. For price £3.75 wondered about quality but the roast pork with 5 different veggies alongside and Steak and veg pie were lovely. A buzzing friendly atmosphere.

Well what a lovely, friendly pub, was welcomes by the landlady and the community within the pub, everyone was so friendly, the food was homemade and super tatey, I had the lasagne and chips, that lasagne is the best I have had in a long time, Mt friend had the roast pork, potatoes and vegetables, he loved it and we was that full we didn't get to try the puddings, but the look on everyonebelses faces we deffentlyissed out x we will deffently be back, if I lived local myself I mose deffently would be there everyday having my cooked lunch x thankyou to all the staff for looking after us on our visit x And also a big thqnkyou to all the locals, beautiful bunch of people x

We are staying nearby and read the good reviews so decided to give it a try here. Friendly greeting and service, food was homemade and delicious. Excellent value for money too.

Myself and a friend went to the Royal Oak today the place was busy and we had not booked but they offered us a table with no problems . There was a variety of food on the lunch menu and they also cooked something different for my friend who is vegetarian , the food was hot and plenty off it , the salad was fresh and was all well presented and tasty , the staff were all friendly and asked a few time if everything was ok ...which it was . The price of the meal was very good for the quality of the food we had . We will definetly return and I have booked for a few days time with my family to go . I would recommend booking as it does fill up quick .

What a lovely place this is! We stopped last night for a meal, a few drinks and a few games of pool. Everyone was so friendly and kind. Ken, the landlord was lovely and Dan, the chef, came out to show us the fresh fish he had caught that day. The menu was simple but sufficient and the meals were delicious and very reasonably priced. It was a real find and we’ll definitely be back. .

This is a little gem of a local pub - the landlord is so friendly as so are the locals - food is cooked fresh to order and very reasonable price - great atmosphere and well worth a visit

Unvergleichliche Qualität zum Mini-Preis. Das Essen ist wie home-cooked von Muttern. So muß richtiges traditionelles Essen schmecken. Bacon&Liver mit gravy and mash, my favourite.. Und die Desserts (puddings), yummy.

Excellent food, very cheap. Spoilt by about 5 middle aged and elderly males who came into dining area to drink. Appeared to be regulars. Very loud, making it difficult to talk. Regular use of the F word which is not nice when there are women in your group. Drinkers need to be kept out of the dining area.

We love this eatery, warm atmosphere everyone is so friendly staff and customers alike. Food all homemade and wonderful, cooked fresh to order. We cannot fault it and the prices are amazing too.

Unpretentious, relaxed, pleasant and welcoming. Highly decent venue for a stop off. Drinks well priced. Staff were very decent indeed.

We went to the royal oak at caple le ferne and we had a fantastic lunch for only £3-45 each. The starf are friendly the landlord is a nice man

Great meal and a friendly welcome. Homemade chips and onion rings and steak. And they made our dog welcome too. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent freshly cooked food with great service. Very welcoming. Really reasonable prices, with a lovely choice of menu. Will happily cater for personal requirements.

Absolutely fantastic food & value for money Great bubbly staff , real friendly atmosphere Will definitely be back very soon.

Excellent Sunday roast and desserts. Friendly and welcoming too . The starters looked appetising as well

We have just had the best lunch we have ever had in a pub it only cost £4-45 per person it was fantastic value for money I can recommend it

Brilliant food, great prices.weekday meals for under £3 each. Friendly service and very quick. If you are in the Dover/Folkestone area very convenient

Really friendly place, good food at a realistic price, can get really busy so it must be good, definately keep returning.

A friendly, welcoming pub just a couple of hundred yards from the Battle of Britain Memorial. Stopped for a pint or two and a fish and chip lunch. Good value for money.

We had my fathers wake here at The Royal Oak in Capel, the buffet was fantastic lots to eat for a very good price, staff were very welcoming and went out of their way to help everybody. Thank you again for making such a sad...

This is the second time I've eaten here and the food is plentiful and the ale is sound. The menu should be considered solid English pub fare, my sausage, mash, peas and carrot/swede mix with gravy, represented astonishing value at £2.95 combined with a £2.00...

Visited with a group of friends for lunch on the recommendation of one of our group. The menu was hand written presented on a single scrap of paper smaller than A5. It comprised of a variety of salads ham chicken or cheese, curry or chicken...

I went there yesterday and used about 5 minutes to figure how to get inside. Forst the kitchen door and then went behind the building and found a door. The place was packed and was told by an old man that i needed a booking...

Not much choice on the menu but don't let that put you off. The food they serve is cheap and good quality. Excellent ales and friendly staff. This was our first visit, we will be back when next in the area. This is great 'local'...

A very busy pub full of locals enjoying them selves , therefore the beer is fresh and very competitive prices . The landlord and staff are very friendly and welcoming, The food is enjoyable and also very well priced . A lovely place to go...

Nine of us had lunch here yesterday we found the staff were friendly even though they were busy. The food is all home made and very cheap we had two courses for just under £4.50. Will definitely be making a return visit.

Petit endroit sympa juste à coté de notre location . Accueil chaleureux , une carte simple et des assiettes bien remplies . On a bien mangé , les enfants ont adorés . mention spéciale au fish n chips

Various dishes chosen but all really good. Everyone enjoyed their personal choice and several tried other's choices too. Staff very friendly and helpful - we'll be back

We have lived within 5 miles of this pub for 20 years and never bothered to go in as the sign outside offers main meals for £2.95 (was £2.50 until recently) so we thought it couldn't be much good. How wrong we were. Visited one lunchtime and ordered Ham, Egg & Chips. The ham was home cooked & delicious and the portion generous - typical pub cost for this meal anywhere else in the area is £8.95. Have also visited for Sunday Lunch (£7.95 for 1 course) choice of 3 meats (you can mix & match any two) and freshly cooked veg. This is truly a gem and is now our regular. True the pub could do with a lick of paint here & there but otherwise it is exceptional value. Tip: book regardless of day of the week. We have had to wait for a table on occasion. We have yet to try the Friday night Fish & Chips but will do so soon.

This place is a gem. The food was so fresh and tasty! We were sat outside and the ambience was great. Very friendly staff.

Popped into the Royal oak for lunch and had the mini breakfast, added a portion of chips........WoW didn't need the chips so filling. Where the mini comes from I don't know and just £2.95 oh plus 50p for chips.

Main course £2.99 and a fairly good menus. I had ham salad.gooseberry crumble and custard. half of beer all for £5.80. The place is a bit basic. but good value

The Royal Oak doesn't look much but we received a genuine warm welcome on a Bank holiday evening and enjoyed great fish and chips and burger and chips. It wasn't too busy and the food was excellent with friendly service! And it was cheap! We paid £22 for two meals a glass of wine and a cup of coffee. Nice place. Not fancy but really OK.

Yet again another beautiful meal never fails thank you Vicky the new chef at the royal oak, Capel near Dover

This was recommended to us but to be honest we weren't impressed. We booked ahead as we were told it gets busy but there were very few diners on the Wednesday lunchtime. The restaurant is very basic and the chairs are not very comfortable for larger people. The menu is limited to just a handful of dishes but at £2.50 a meal that is not surprising. I quite enjoyed my Fishcake, chips and peas but my husband and friend opted for the pasta bolognese and didn't enjoy it. One was almost cold and both said it was tasteless. We also asked the waitress whether anything came with the pasta and she just said she didn't know. We therefore ordered a portion of chips for them to share only to receive a plate of garlic bread with the meals! The bar area was quite busy obviously with locals but diners were few. I don't think I would bother going again on a Monday - Wednesday lunchtime when the OAP specials are on but other times may be different.

Eight of us arrived at the Royal Oak having walked across muddy fields, with dogs. The landlady and waitress were very welcoming. Food was cooked to order and so took a little longer, but the veg was not over cooked but more importantly food was good value. It was great friendly service in a “locals” pub

Wow..........New chef at the royal oak. Didn't think the food could get any better for the money but Vicky the NEW chef has produced and surpassed well done Vicky lovely food

we had heard that this pub did good cheap meals so we thought we would give it a try . we did not expect to have to book as it was a Monday lunch time . we found by being told by a person leaving as we went in that you needed to book to get food . We went in the pub and were totally ignored by the staff so we approached one of them and was told we might be able to get a table in approx. 45 mins .we then decided not to bother . That was fair enough but we felt the pub was totally unwelcoming cramped and like a local club for the over 75s who did not want strangers visiting. a local pub for local people in the manner of the shop in league of gentlemen

Feels right at home. Had lunch for £2.5 a main, £1.5 desert, and £9 a 12oz delicious rump stake.

Youll be sure of a warm welcome at this very friendly pub. Great home cooked dinners and delicious puddings at an excellent price. Check it out...you won't be disappointed.

Fabulous meal great value will be back soon. Good food exceptional value and excellent service every time.

Another visit , meat balls with spaghetti in a beautiful tomato sauce topped with optional cheese........what can I say the pub never disappoints. Keep up the superb food and drinks.

We booked this from home and thought we would just check it out during the day,the menu which were given...

This was a surprise as we did not know what to expect, but is was a very pleasant. Sunday lunch...

Superb food and value and friendly will go again ,heard the roasts on a Sunday are a must ,will be visiting again without a doubt ,Monday to Friday £2,50 a main and £1.50 a desert unbelievable

Friendly staff eager to please serving excellent value for money food. Wide choice on menu and very good portions.

Camping in the area and decided to visit.

How lovely to find a good value pub. Lunch time menu very good value for the money at £2.50 a meal and £3.00 a pint. The staff are very friendly and helpful.........enjoy

Family visit Saturday 19th August, had a variety of dishes all were well cooked nicely presented and all tasted superb. Prices are very competitive, the 12oz steak was excellent value at just under £9.00, even the ales are nicely priced. Together with the young lady looking after us it made for a very pleasant evening.

Food was of a good standard and a great price. Staff are friendly. Large drinks selection. Lots of parking. Pool table.

Our destination for Sunday lunch having climbed up from The Warren. Very tasty food at very reasonable prices.

Friend and I booked our first Sunday lunch here and were not disappointed. Good choice of meats, 6 types of fresh veg including red cabbage and the food was hot. The amount of meat on our plates was very generous and could easily have served two people. The staff were friendly and we were asked halfway through meal if everything was OK. The desserts which we saw being served to other diners looked delicious and well presented but due to being full, we did not order. Maybe next time as we will definitely be back. Well done The Royal Oak!

Bodde i närheten under andra veckan i Juli 2017 och detta blev vårdat stamhak. Vänlig personal, bra mat till otroligt bra pris. Hur de kan gå runt med så låga priser är ett mysterium. Portionerna är dessutom väl tilltagna.

My boyfriend and I had never been here before, and were certainly pleasantly surprised. We went to see a family friend play, and ended up staying 3 hours longer than we had planned because the atmosphere could not be missed. The dinner was superb, definitely the finest meal I have had in a very long time, and it was also my fist pub meal. I would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for a lovely bit of culture, to make new friends and to have a lovely and warming evening. I could not fault the service, food, or atmosphere. The setting was beautiful and the vibe was next to perfect. It was a lovely evening event with friendly people and amazing food. It's a perfect place for a family evening, a catch up with friends, and a great opportunity to meet new people. I am most definitely looking forward to my next visit!

We booked for a family meal on a friend's recommendation and were very pleased that we did! The pub is very old, quaint and traditional, clean and the food was fab. They also have a pool table which I eyed longingly but didn't have a chance to try out. Next time! Two of us had lamb, one had beef and one had pork, all of which were already plated up with the roasties,stuffing and a parsnip which was cooked perfectly . All the other veggies were on a platter to be shared. The veg was all fresh, not frozen and there was plenty between four. Our young daughter had the ham, egg and chips which she enjoyed immensely and we all tasted a chip( you have to don't you?) and they were fluffy on the inside and perfect and golden on the outside. We also had a conversation with the family on a nearby table and a local chap who it turned out had mutual friends and this all added to a great relaxed, feeling to the day. The chef came out to check up on us too which was a nice touch. We all proceeded to have a dessert which was also homemade and tasty. All for the sum of £50.15!! That included a drink each too.It was a delight to enjoy a meal as much as we did without it breaking the bank and with such hospitality from all the staff. I believe the mid week meals are even cheaper( if that is possible in this day and age )as we checked out the menu etc . We will be returning very soon mid week to try that out and at the weekend again, to feast. I will post a further review after each meal.

Execellent food and wine. Generous portions, very reasonably priced. Staff very friendly and helpful

was out for a walk with friends and popped in for a drink, the food looked so nice. we decided to try. Ordered off the 2.50 menu and to my surprise we got fresh Salmon and salad, cant believe it cant get a sandwich for that in shops.

Such small food portions. Locals were not friendly and neither were the staff. £2.50 lunches no wonder the food was terrible

Main courses start at £2.50 and Steak and chips is only £4.50! Beer at £2.60 a pint! Fabulous quality and excellent value.

We were staying at house nearby for family get together. Booked a table for eight for Sunday lunch. From arrival service was excellent. Food was all cooked well. Food hot, meat tender and plenty of vegetables. Delicious deserts and very reasonably priced.

We have visited many times over the past 8 years or so and very little changes here. This is a good thing. It offers excellent value for money, so long as you do not require posh surroundings. The decor is tired and basic but the atmosphere is good, the food is freshly cooked and good value, and the beer is also well priced. It would appear that lunchtime is when it may get quite busy, but we have only visited early evening, when the bar is busy with locals, but not many are eating. Ideally placed for a good value meal on the night before you are using either the ferries from Dover or Eurotunnel early the next morning.

Als wir spät abends - es war schon dunkel - erschöpft und hungrig nach dem Weg zum Campingplatz fragten, bot und Wirt Brian sofot einen Fleck Wiese hinter seinem Haus zum zelten an, lud uns zum essen ein (Pommes mit geräuchertem Schinken und Krautsalat), und behandelte uns, wie seine verlorenen Kinder. So viel Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundschaft haben wir selten erlebt. Geld wollte er auch nur für das Ale, das wir tranken. Ein großartiges Haus mit interessanter, langer Geschichte, die man auf einer Tafel and er Pubwand nachlesen kann. Wärmstens zu empfehlen!

Arrived after being turned away from another restaurant. Food was freshly cooked and served quickly. A good meal and a reasonable price

The bestest, friendliest pub on the planet. Full of character, (and characters), top food, real ale. ALL GOOD. *****

Been here several times over the past few months for the Monday/ Tuesday/ Thursday lunchtime special. Ranges from pie, roast, fish pie, wraps, liver and bacon etc. A good plateful served with potatoes and veg or chips. Always receive a friendly welcome and a bit of banter. Sometimes a tight fit in the bar, only because it's a small bar and lots of people eat in there. No complaints from us- and they do a lovely home-made crumble and rice pudding- with jam!!!!

I have been to Chapel-le-Ferne three times over the last while and each I have eaten in The Royal Oak. Food, service, welcome and prices all top notch. We went after our channel swim crossing and enjoyed ourselves immensely. They made us feel at home and served up excellent good solid food and drink and value. Highly recommend it. We also signed our names on the wall and have our crossing immortalised .

Stumbled across this place one Tuesday lunchtime while feeling (a) peckish and (b) in need of a pint. A decent choice of draught beers and friendly service. Took our seats in the restaurant part and duly munched our way through fish, chips and peas and liver, bacon and mash. Modest fare but nothing to complain about. Then the bill arrived...Total: £5. Yes, £2.50 per person on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (I think I've remembered correctly). It's been a long time since I paid £2.50 for a decent-sized main meal. And Capel Le Ferne is a lovely little place, Beautiful views right on the White Cliffs of Dover. Nobody else there....in the last week of June and on a rare beautiful day. And close to the Battle of Britain memorial exhibition. Where is everybody? All munching chips around Folkestone Harbour I expect.....PS: There is a more expensive menu...you're not forced to eat for £2.50!

We visited this pub as we were staying at a campsite for the night on our way to Calais . After having a quick look at reviews for somewhere nearby we opted for here . On appearance this doesn't look much but others had said this so don't let it put you off ! Very friendly pub , lots of locals in there after work . Separate seating area to eat . Food was really good ( I recommend the fish n chips ) and very reasonably priced , the man behind the bar presumably the landlord was really kind to our kids too . If we are ever that way again we would definitely call in for tea !

If you require reasonable food at low prices this is the place for you.However if you don't mind wooden tables,cramped space and sharing your eating area with the pool table so be it.

We stopped in the Lighthouse Inn and as it was Tuesday, the bar was closed so the owners's son recommended us to walk to this little pub as it was only 5 minutes away.We opened the door and was get surprised to see it packed with people eating at all the tables and the bar full.We managed to find a table and had a beer or three and watched so many people enjoying the lunchtime tipples.The cook was very busy serving the lunchtime meals at £2.50!The beer was cheap but well looked after by the owner Paul.We spoke with one of the regulars and he told us that the special menu is available every Monday and Tuesday and it alternates each week.If you need to stop before arriving at Dover turn off the A20 at Chapel Le Ferne onto the New Dover Road and head towards Folkestone as this little gem is worth a visit as you will be warmly welcomed and served good food and drinks at really cheap rates.

The pub is old and a bit tatty but the food is good honest home cooking and the Tuesday special at GDP 2.50 is incredible value Friendly efficient service as well and the beer also a good price

More than a bit surprised Tatty and unassuming both inside and outside, but the food was surprisingly good and very good value. Just £31 for Ribs and chips , Steak and chips, and 3 decent pints of bitter

We were staying with relatives in Capel le Ferne so as recommended by them we had a number of meals at the Royal Oak. Firstly we had sunday lunch. There was a choice of chicken beef lamb or pork with a great selection of veg including cauliflower cheese all for less than £6 a head. There is a great choice of desserts. I had lemon cheese cake with lashings of cream. This brought the price up to just less than £7. All the food was really delicious.We returned during our stay and had dinner. We chose from the Two Meals for £9.99. I had loads of scampi and chips and my husband had an enormous burger and chips. My husband was really blown away by the little pairs of scissors in the sauce sachet dish so you don't have a struggle to open them. Really good idea. Finally the £2.50 lunches need a mention. A menu of 5 dishes including sausage and mash. Very good value and no-one would ever leave hungry the landlord Paul sees to that. The cheerful banter at the bar from the locals and visitors alike seems from an age when we knew how to have fun. Paul is proud of his pub and the service it gives its a credit to him. The staff give everyone a really warm welcome in this Olde world pub. Worth a visit.

2 pounds 50 for a lunch makes it the cheapest lunch we've ever had in the uk, this is why we should have known better what we were going through: it was like being in a hospice served by some hospitalised.We had good laughs though!

I'm not sure how to review this one. Defnately mixed, but ended up feeling positive. We didn't realise, until we arrived that this was their lunch for £2.50 day (really £2.50? Still can't believe it!) anyway, for obvious reasons, it's hugely popular. The landlord managed, with some juggling, to find us a table and after an initial frostiness, thawed somewhat and ended up being a geneal host. The locals were very friendly and the food, whilst basic, was actually good. One of the chefs had not turned up for work, having met a new 'lady friend' leaving the other chef, the waitress and the landlord rushed off their feet. They coped largely with good humour and efficientcy, it was all a bit 'carry on!' We left in good spirits (no pun intended) and it was a lunch that turned out to be one of those moments in time, never to be forgotten. Don't think we will be repeating it though.

A great little known country pub with hearty local sourced products, cooked and presented well, being here is like going back in time to local community pub, built in the 1600 so pretty old, but full of happy locals, very friendly and soon get caught up with all banter going on. Have eaten here a few times and always great. They offer a standard menu, with a specials board of freshly prepared local sourced fish and meats, a very well priced menu and 8oz rump steaks with real chips for £5.95. even have light lunch menu and Monday and Tuesday run a £2.50 lunch menu and really busy then so ring and book advised.

The pub itself is basic with no frills the food was good value, plentiful and tasty. Some of thvegetabkes were warm rather than hot but overall a decent meal.The service at the bar was a bit slow when we arrived as there was only one person serving. It the were very friendly and we weren't on a rush.

Popped in for a drink as part of a long walk around the countryside. Enjoyed chatting to the staff as the pub was empty at the time.

Really good, reasonably priced home cooked food.Steaks are always good and well cooked. Unlike many pubs the drinks are also very good value. No frills a bit spit and sawdust type place but well worth the visit, just don't expect posh!

Busy little pub serving food. There were 3 of us and we had the roast lunch trying the beef, lamb and Turkey food was ok but not special. However the portions were good value. The pub seemed to have a lot of locals which gave a good atmosphere. The barman and waitress were both friendly and helpful and the service was good and we did not wait for anything though most of the tables were eating. We will try somewhere else next time as there may somewhere with better food but when we have done this we would return to the Royal Oak

Good value simple home cooked food. Good pub atmosphere. Drinks are cheap too. Very pleasant barmaid. Will probably use this pub for regular drinks with friends.

I love going to the place whenever I visit friends. Wonderful old world pub, friendly staff and other customers, and a great choice of food. Never been disappointed in the past 3 years. Thanks staff.

Friendly old fashioned pub. Small cosy bar. Excellent fresh cooked food especially the steaks which are excellent value.

What a great place. Lovely friendly staff and fantastic well portioned food. Good old fashioned pub with small friendly bar and tables to eat at at the back. Definitely going back for more. Loved it!

Called in this lunchtime and chose 2X beef pie. The menue said it may take a while as the meals would be freshly made. However when it came and we dug under the pastry for the meat, it was actually cold,the next piece was very hot. This suggests that it was in fact microwaved as the gravy was very hot. Needless to say we left the meat, ate the veg and left. we did not say anything and at no time did any off the staff ask us if we were enjoying it! Very disappointed!

If you are looking for a nice friendly pub, not too large which serves good homely food at fantastic prices, then you should look no further than the Royal Oak in Capel-le-Ferne. Where else could you get a good lunch for £2.25 and dessert for £1.25 on a Monday or Tuesday? Even on a Wednesday lunchtime you can get an 8oz rump steak and trimmings for £4.99. Then there are the themed nights like Thai and Spanish, all this and a great choice of reasonably price beers....you can't beat it!!

my wife and i had our first meal here and we will be back. the steak was cooked to perfection and the plate was well filled with chips, peas, tomatoes and mushrooms, and the sweet choice was good as well. Lunches monday and tuesday are only £2.25. and £3.99 other days and sunday carvery from £5.95. the staff were so friendy and the customers were as well . drinks are good value for money. good car parking and easy to find makes it all worth while. they have special nights coming up so call to find out and they will be happy to help you. we were told by a few people to go there and glad we did, you will not be disappointed. 10 out of 10 from us.

Had a lovely visit. Great food, Great Value, Great atmosphere. The staff were really helpful. The place was busy but not once did we feel unwelcome. We'll definitely be returning.

7 of us met up for dinner on a Friday evening. We all ordered different meals but they were all well cooked and served quickly. Lovely pub with a friendly atmosphere.

Huge beer selection. Small pub with local clientele. Bit downmarket but clean. Food very good and cheap.

loved this place, always a smile, & really nice staff we asked to taste some of their beer & they were happy to oblige
