The Royal Oak in Waverley

Food was great, a bit pricey.. 2 Fish and chips with 2 0% Heinekens bottles costed £50

Awfully rude manager and awful reheated microwave food! Definitely will not go back. We also sensed a feeling of prejudice and racism by the manager.

Had such a terrible experience walking into here. After coming to the area to celebrate a family wedding we went in hoping to get some food which on the outside said started from 6pm this was also stated online. When we went in my brother in law (white) was greeted with smiles when we walked in behind him (black) the mood became hostile and we were patronised as we were told food is not being served. When we tried to explain the website and sinage outside we were once again spoken to in an aggressive manner. I found this very uncomfortable experience as we could have still have consider sitting down for drinks. The service and atmosphere shown to us gave us the impression straight away we were not welcome. Just to be clear me and my brother inlaw both left our own separate reviews as we all felt the same way and furthermore even if food is no longer being served the delivery of this fact towards us was out of order on every level.

under bad management for a number of years slowy killed off with little care toward the community. Currently open in 2024 weekends only Friday to Sunday 4:10 pm namely for the kitchen to remain viable on behalf of GreenKing… Let’s hope the village will be blessed with a’Publican’ who knows our needs and wishes of this post code and not have to rely on those day trippers looking for something to eat. Eventually crossed fingers

Went to the Royal Oak for Sunday roast with the wife, it's was very nice and a decent portion size, it was the puddings that made it perfect, definitely recommend this place if you want a easy Sunday roast. Thank you to the owner..

First of all can I just comment, Danny was excellent at looking after us!! The menu has lots to offer everybody's requirements, the food that myself, wife and mum ordered was absolutely lovely, in fact all the other food being brought out looked fantastic, this place is definitely the one to visit over local pub's in the area, we will be going back soon,

Absolutely fantastic , food was unbelievable cannot recommend enough , the owner was one of the best !!

Food was lovely, attention to detail was one point and the service we excellent A+

Took advantage of the Groupon Sunday Roast deal. Had a late guest join us and paid full price for them. The Sunday Roast is listed at £18 per head. With the Groupon deal it was £24 for 2, so a savingings of £6 per head. The food was well prepared. The service was courteous and efficient and the atmosphere was pleasant. Overall the meal was enjoyable. Two of us had the crumble desert and it was generous and delicious. There was only a small disappointed ant that was with the small portion of beef we received. This is perfectly understandable when you take the resent cost of living crisis into account and the percentage that promoters like Groupon take of the fee...So next time we will book directly and pay list price to get the full experience.

Hint...If you don't book for lunch...you can choose your own table....then order food. Also beware....about 12% service charge automatically added.. (The more you spend...the more you pay)

Absolutely fabulous family pub! Excellent menu with plenty of choice and very flexible for children! We were looked after brilliantly by Steph, Danni and Nayel who were not only friendly and attentive but also interacted with the children who were provided with an abundance of crayons, paper and puzzles. The food was excellent and a lovely ambience. Leave room for desert!

always lots pf parking available. Good food and service. Been several times and have never been disappointed. lovely staff.

Althought the food is very nice we felt that there wasn't much choice on the menu and regarding the cost, it was quite high for what we had in a local pub there are similar establishments around the area with more choices at a more realistic price.

Popped in briefly today to refresh. Greeted by 2 younger members of staff. Who were welcoming to me and my pooch. So lovely and a nice atmosphere!! 😊

Nice pub, we only went though for the beer and the band

Lovely meal at this pub. Friendly service. It also has a great garden for a drink on a hot day.

Amazing Sunday lunch here today - highly recommend!! Great service and quality of food. We were lucky as it was quiet and we didn’t need to book.

Despite the pub taking a dive after covid things are pretty still OK.

A great old fashion style pub without music blasting out of video screens everywhere showing sport or the news

Thank you so much for having us today for lunch. One of the best roast dinners I ever had, The place is lovely and very well decorated. Also want thank you for the picture that you took, is a small act but that means a lot to us. Hope to go back soon.

The pub itself - family friendly, nice enough inside, staff are friendly. The Sunday roast - Okay. Would give the roast itself 3 stars. For £18 I would of expected a higher quality roast, for example the potatoes are frozen, from a packet, they didn’t taste very nice as they were dry and they had that frozen taste. For £18 I’d of expected real roasties which is my favourite part of a Sunday dinner so that was a bit of a let down.

Great service and the staff were so welcoming!

I booked for the Sunday lunch and this is what we have experienced while we were there The place was uncomfortably cold so that after a few mins we had to put our coats on! The food came cold and beef was chewy! There weren’t that many customers and no wonder why? Won’t recommend it for eating there.

Average pub North and special but nice drinks

What a little Gem….We we’re looking for a country pub for date night near to home The Royal Oak didn’t let us down On arrival we were welcomed by the bar staff who were very friendly and very informative We took advantage of Sirloin Steak Wednesday Both of us had steaks which were cooked just how we liked them

After a night of sipping many a tipple I needed some decent scran and The Royal Oak delivered. A great selection of hearty pub grub. Something for everyone. With the open fire lit it's a warm and cosy place to sit back chill and enjoy the food.

Amazing little find with great food and very welcoming service. Great day out overall! The team was very friendly and answered every question in a polite manner. We will be returning.

My favourite pub: great atmosphere, delicious food, and really friendly staff. They also hosted a party for us, and all the guests commented on the food and the welcome they received. Will be back soon!

Friendly staff great food and service

Sunday lunch looked good, friendly staff

We came across the Royal Oak by chance as we were out for a drive and three other pubs were either closed down or only offering "snacks" as they had no restaurant staff. The young bar staff were very welcoming and friendly as was the owner/manager who stopped by our table for a chat. We ordered drinks and they brought us the menus with the "Specials" of the day on a chalk board. We chose both the specials of stroganoff with rice and the pan-fried sea bass on a bed of pea, asparagus and spinach risotto. They were both perfectly cooked and presented. Hot and very tasty. We both had the oaty-topped fruit crumble - one with custard and one with ice cream. Both were delicious. We enjoyed our lunch and would definitely recommend this friendly pub in a pretty Surrey Village.

Great local pub always friendly staff great garden

Just had a nice lunch in the garden, food was good, nicely presented. Waitresses were great, polite, smiling and all the time asking if all is good. Happy to recommend.

We had a wonderful meal, exceptional service and a little bit about the Royal oaks history

Came for the sirloin steak Wednesday for my lunch. Perfectly cooked sirloin with a delicious peppercorn sauce. Great service from the barmaids, overall an exceptionally tasty lunch!

Today I visited The Royal Oak in a party of four for lunch, and as in previous times I’ve visited too, the meals were delicious and reasonably priced too. Staff service was excellent with two waitresses keen to please us with their attentive prompt service, all very polite and with a smile. Each meal was served hot, with Sausage & Mash, Veggie Lasagne, Fish Chips & Peas, and a Chicken Burger dish all proving to be very good & perfectly tasty. A good selection of Ales at the bar completed this extremely pleasant lunch out. I can thoroughly recommend the food and service at The Royal Oak at Wrecclesham.

Lovely Hotel. Staff can’t do enough for you and the rooms and bathrooms are beautifully decorated and very welcoming. Great TV choices and great breakfast. Will definitely seek out this hotel chain in other parts of the country. Fantastic!

Lovely family afternoon, nice shaded garden and the kids have a place to play

I’ve popped into this pub a few times and finally made time for a Sunday roast with my friends, and I’m so glad we did! The nut roast went down a treat, the chicken was very tender, the potatoes crispy (and the cauliflower cheese exceptional). Needless to say we’ll be back - maybe for Burger Thursday. Staff were friendly and incredibly welcoming. And made sure the nut roast was gf for my partner. Thank you!

Now that's what I call a good burger... enough said, by an empty plate. 😋

Great Sunday roast, great staff, very clean and tidy

Had a lovely meal with family and friends at this fab pub. Roast was tasty, hot and plentiful. Puddings were gorgeous, esp the crumble and sticky toffee pudding. Won't hesitate to come back again and would highly recommend.

We came here for Sunday lunch, as the reviews were very helpful 👍 and a bonus was that we got a deal on Groupon. The place was very charming and had that old fashioned country pub look. The greeting and service was welcoming and warming ☺️ and the food was absolutely gorgeous. We would definitely recommend this place and cannot wait to visit again 😀

As always proper pub. Proper food. Nice to be back.

Went to this pub on the basis of the reviews for Sunday lunch. The atmosphere was fine and it was not too busy. However, the service was slow. 2nd round of drinks I had to go and remind them about. We all ordered a roast. The portion sizes were good but the quality wasn't that great. Yorkshire puds tasted odd and some of the veg a bit bland. All in all a mediocre experience. The staff came and asked if everything was OK and yes it was just ok........................... Staff looked bored to be honest.

I'm not normally one to leave a review, but after this meal me and my partner just had for lunch I had to! Honestly, as we sat down, we didnt have much hope.. menu was very small, not alot of options.. especially for vegetarians however,...

Made to feel very welcome, lovely food. Good venue for all the family.

Just sat and watched a customer with a young child try to scam the staff He walked in stood by the ladies wc After no more than 5 minutes he walked over to the meet and greet area and started abusing a bar man Screaming...

This was the first time we visited this pub. The pub inside has a traditional look to it. We were sat at a nice table. The service was fast and the staff polite and helpful. We were 6 of us and had Sunday roasts as well as vegetarian lasagne. Generous portions. We didn't wait much at all despite the place being full. The food was very tasty, rich and well cooked. We also had some drinks and desserts which were yummy. Reasonable prices for the area. Outside there's a play area for children and a hilly garden. The only negative was that there weren't really any vegan options and only a couple of vegetarian options for adults. No veggie options for children either but we asked and the chef was able to accommodate us. Nowadays with lots of people being veggie I think the menu could improve.

Visited the oak today and was greeted by very friendly bar staff Demi and Evie are amazing the service was incredible and the food was top nosh x thank you to Paul and all the staff will definitely be returning here x also has a...

I was really impressed with this pub. The food was delicious and the staff were extremely attentive and helpful. I will definitely return

I had a lovely lunch here yesterday, the food was excellent, and the staff were really attentive and helpful. There was no problem for one of us to have a starter as her main course, and we were even allowed cream as well as custard...

This pub is my local and I visit quite often. I have tried many different dishes on their menu and all are very good indeed. Steak Wednesday is alway a triumph and consistently ranks high on the best steaks I’ve had. The staff are very...

Have used this pub before always found it lovely . Food good have eaten a roast here and it was nice. We went in January for a late lunch on a groupon deal , I feel that the roast was over cooked not much meat...

We loved our recent visit here, using the groupon voucher deal which was excellent value for money for 4 people. We were sat next to a roaring open fire, perfect on a cold wet Sunday in February! Service was friendly and efficient and our roast...

Really gorgeous little pub! Amazing food, the loveliest staff, decently priced food and drinks, clean toilets although not particularly big and a smoking area out back. The only downside is that there's very limited parking, however the area isn't particularly populated so it's understandable. Overall though, such a fantastic atmosphere and in turn such a superb pub

Excellent food, wonderful service and brilliant atmosphere. Would highly recommend. Particularly because the bar manager had such a pleasing manner.

Friendly staff ,good beers. We'll be back.

Very friendly pub and great service. Good range of ales, wines and lagers. When it comes to starters the scotch eggs with black pudding are to die for and the garlic prawns are also very good. Did not have a main but had two starters,...

Being a fellow publican I was so impressed with the courteousness and care extended to ourselves as strangers before I let on to my trade. Far too often country pubs having to rely on their regular trade find it difficult to accommodate one off visitors....

I chose the veggie option for my Festive meal this evening 3/12/21 - it was wonderfully tasty - highly recommend 😋😋 Service was great too.

My friend and I went to the Royal Oak on the 02/12. It was out first visit and we eat out in pubs on a regular basis. We were met with a warm welcome and there was lovely real fire. The staff were attentive, friendly...

Staff extremely good, food the same

Lovely pub, very wellcoming, the staff are always friendly and the food is lovely. Wellcomed my dog too. Nothing was too much and with the added real fire on today. Will always go back, shame its not closer to me.🌞

Because this prominent sign (see photos) clearly suggests this pub is open all day, we pulled off the road, looking forward to rest and refreshment after a gruelling day, last Tuesday afternoon. However, despite the fact that the Google entry agrees it’s opening hours as 11-11pm, the door was locked and a hand written sign sellotaped to the glass said otherwise. Suffice to say we weren’t the only disappointed potential customers.

Nice roast sunday dinner. Puddings were delicious - fruit crumble and cream and chocolate torte.

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere and great service. Excellent white chocolate cheesecake, can't wait to return.

The royal oak was recommended to us so decided to give it a try. Had an evening meal with a friend, good menu choices, very reasonable prices, staff were friendly and served us well. Dart board etc one end, other dining end was cosy with...

I recommend this restaurant. The food and beer were pleasant. One waitress provided a more savvy level of service.🙂 However, when I booked and mentioned it was a Groupon booking I could hear a deflated response.

If you want to experience an authentic British pub which gives you a warm welcome and good food at reasonable prices, then The Royal Oak at Farnham is definitely worth a visit. The centuries old building with open log fire and unpretentious decor contribute to...

Lovely pub, excellent food! I recommend Wednesday steak night!

Un buen lugar para ir con animales de compañía Servicio amable y comida correcta. Está bien el Sunday roast

Nice food in here we often pop in for food . About 8 of us and they always make us happy 😊

Last 2 times we have been, food has not been good, won't be going back, Duck breast should be tender not tough as old boots and you couldn't get smaller moules if you tried

landlord was every rude towards my self and our friends will not be going back there the staff was very good it is just the landlord

Very nice pub. Went for steak night and wasn’t disappointed. Food was yummy and the staff where very pleasant. They are dog friendly so we where even able to bring the puppy along. The only reason they lost a star is because they used to make the most incredible cheesecake I have ever tasted! The pub was known as the cheesecake pub among all our friends but it’s no longer on the menu! Giving them five stars would not feel right knowing this famous cheesecake is no longer offered to us. We will be returning for another steak night but the missing cheesecake will always leave a hole in our hearts.

Went for steak Wednesday. Nice piece of meat!

Excellent as always, slightly slow on the order but understandable given these difficult times.

The food is average, nothing special and not expensive. Rather stop here than Beaconsfield services off the M40. However, they state triple cooked chips on the menu and they are simply oven chips. I wouldn't bother ordering them because they just aren't. All in nothing...

Lovely pub and the food was the best we've had for a long time 😋

Popped in for a quick steak meal. Very nice. Good service and lovely atmosphere.

Had a nice dinner in evening. Friendly staff. Prices are average. Garden out side and parking

Friendly atmosphere and great food

Cannot fault this place. Home cooked food and traditional friendly service. well done guys and girls

Good clean pub, excellent home cooked food

Good selection of beers a quality steak for a very good price on Wednesday Steak Night!

Had a quick beer. Lovely garden at the back with lots of space for little ones to run around!

Very friendly and helpful staff.

Demelsa and gang other a lovely service with prompt food and realistic prices . I recommend the oak burger . Easy parking, lovely pub setting and location.

Great local pub. Amazing, honest pub food . Big rear garden. Friendly staff.

Good atmosphere and food is ok too

Lovely (if slightly steep!!) garden and very good and friendly service

Tasty food. Service friendly if laid back. We ate in beer garden. Lovely space. Steak Wednesday meant pricing was good... So was the steak!

Nice garden, good food, great location, excellent service. Really friendly, approachable staff.

Good beer selection of beers, nice staff.

Booked last minute to meet up with our daughter and partner and we hadn’t been to this pub before. We felt extremely welcome with all the staff who served us very very pleasant and attentive. Food arrived very quickly after ordering and was delicious traditional pub grub just what we wanted for a Saturday lunchtime. Will definitely return.

Great food...cold beer...perfect for a day in the sun

Very nice food. Great, friendly service

Good place, great garden. Nice and big space outdoors. Only set back is the gradient. Our table wasn't on an exactly level surface so cutlery and glasses kept sliding off the table.

Easy drive from Hampshire for an affordable and delicious Sunday Roast with a beautiful view from the large garden. Friendly and safe service. Thank you very much. Will return when things open again.
