The Royal Oak in Lancaster

We have lunch here about 12 times a year when in the area. It's good honest pub food at a reasonable price, the service is good and the ambience is pleasant. Can't comment on the ale etc as I am always driving but they seem to have a good selection.

Friendly people, Fantastic food, service was also exceptional. If i could give it ten stars i would

Great atmosphere. Lovely food. Helpful staff.

Stopped at this great little pub for lunch and the food and service was top notch. Highly recommended, the traditional pub dishes are the highlight.

Good honest, pub grub had lamb shank and a bacon cheese burger both where excellent price good defenly going back well worth a visit

Excellent food im mean Excellent

Lovely food , friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Service fabulous. Food was delicious and a special mention on the chips.... Highly recommended

2 hour round trip for the food here .came a fee weeks ago and decided to visit again the staff are pleasant the food is amazing well worth a visit

The food is excellent, as is the service. I ordered a small fish and chips as you can see in the photo it's a very generous portion. I couldn't eat it all. Good selection on menu Lovely setting. Advise you to book as it can get very busy. Dog friendly, great area for walks by the river. We paid just under £36 for large and small fish chips and peas with bread, two soft drinks, and to Cappuccinos

Partner and I stopped in for dinner and The Royal Oak did not disappoint. Cracking service, the staff were friendly and attentive, nothing was ever too much. The food arrived far quicker than our expectations and was roasting hot. The food itself was perfect, tasted great and good value for money. Cask beer was very well kept. Would highly recommend!

Best gammon meal I've ever had. Meal came fully loaded with onion rings, egg,pineapple mushrooms etc. Delicious. Pub also dog friendly which is a big plus for us.

Lovely country pub. Great roast dinner!

So , following up to my review in July, another great meal , I had the £10 surf and turf and my wife had the giant Yorkshire with roast beef . Absolutely gorgeous and a good portion.£10 for 6 pieces of scampi and a 6oz steak with chips , salad , mushrooms, onion rings , peas and salad . No wonder its always busy , no overcharging for great quality food in a lovely pub .

We stopped here on our travels after a hard few days, this place was just what we needed. The staff were very welcoming as we arrived without a booking, they were more than happy to accommodate us. We had some hearty meals and drinks in a lovely traditional feeling pub. This place feels very cosy and relaxing, we look forward to stopping again.

Very good, I will be going back again, lovely food 😋

This is a really nice pub. Good food. Welcoming and warm. Hornby is a beautiful place to visit, nice Riverside walks. It's nice to have a homely pub to return to.

Great food and amazing attentive staff, we had walked to the pub and were staying locally whilst on holiday and they let us borrow umbrellas so we could get back dry! Quality place would visit again when next back to Yorkshire

Called on while passing on way back from a couple of days away. Squeezed us in,were cool about the dog. Food gorgeous,staff very helpful..highly recommended!

Good food at fair price. Friendly Staff Jacket potato with fillings

Visited on a fairly busy Saturday afternoon, shown to a nice table in the excellent beer garden, decent wide ranging menu all at very reasonable prices. Food arrived after about five minutes and looked great, we were all very impressed with the high quality of ingredients, not to mention the generous portions. Service throughout was impeccable helpful, friendly and efficient staff. We highly recommend this establishment in every aspect, good food, great service and lovely location, looking forward to returning soon.

A beautiful pub, providing excellent food at very reasonable prices. Menu choice is very varied and the service is superb. A perfect choice for Sunday lunch, or any other day of the week!! We'll definitely be back soon. Thanks....

Me and my husband had an amazing meal at the royal oak whilst staying in hornby. The food was delicious, i had the special of lamb henry and mu husband had the special of the bbq ribs. The portion sizes where generous and the food was cooked perfectly. We both left full and happy. The staff where very attentive and nice too. A very pleasant experience and will one day return when back in the area.

Beautiful country pub . The staff are so friendly. If you are going for food make sure you are hungry as the portions are massive and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be calling again when we are back in September.

Always very good service and food excellent. Nice friendly staff

Called in for a impromptu Sunday dinner Really pleased we did from the moment we walked through the door it was a pleasant experience. The staff were very friendly and the food was fantastic especially the lamb Henry one of the best I've tasted. The pub itself is a bit deceiving from the outside with a tight compact car park which we just managed to park up our motorhome but there is a very large beer garden. We would recommend stopping off if you're travelling in the area

I would recommend the Royal Oak Pub to everyone, great service, excellent food and portions and affordable prices we will definitely be going back again.

We haven`t been here in some time, & we used to eat at the owners previous establishment, so decided to visit on Saturday lunchtime, whilst visiting relatives in the area. We were not disappointed, the food is excellent, the plates are full, trust me you don`t leave here hungry. The staff are pleasant, and the owners run the pub very well. The place is clean, with a very relaxed atmosphere. We will be returning, in the very near future.

Excellent service lovely staff, wow the food was amazing

We had been recommended to this pub/restaurant by a friend and it didn’t disappoint, good old English food done really well (there was a curry also), the staff were extremely helpful and polite throughout our visit. All six of us enjoyed our experience and would definitely return.

The food was lovely ,my friend had been off and on ,for Years. It was closed down for a while, As for the landlord who was picking his nose at the bar ,then taking a few desserts out .Sat at the phone taking booking .ln my other review the land lady said ,her husband didn't serve food due to his bad leg .Funny when paying the bill ,he confirmed he was the landlord .l won't be going to spec savers .Next time l come in maybe a photo may decide if lm right

Everything was lovely until l saw the landlord picking his nose .Then went into the kitchen to bring food out and he definitely didn't have time to wash his hands. Everything else was lovely, but sorry l won't be going back there

Had a lovely meal last night never disappoints thoroughly enjoyed it

What a lovely village pub. We stopped off on our way to Lancaster from Yorkshire. Proper honest home cooked food. Friendly warm welcome. Will definitely be going back

Called in for a drink and food but hadn't booked in advance but they found us a table. Food was fantastic and cooked really well with plenty of flavour. Prices are too low for the standard of food.

Good value food and good portion, £10 meals on a Monday :)

Lovely country pub the food was amazing The service was second to none would recommend a visit .

Only had a quick pint so can't say a lot other than pleasant enough and would come back

Have been a few times recently, usually have sandwiches, they are very good and great value, went on Tuesday for lunch, had steak pie, absolutely brilliant, great portion including veg cooked to perfection. Needed a walk after. Will be back

Lovely family Lunch. Good menu. Plenty of choice + specials. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Staff friendly but not intrusive. Would be advisable to book especially if a group as there weren't many free tables.

Proper honest pub grub. Bloody brilliant!!

This is a great place to visit set with in the heart of the community. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. The staff who work here are Friendly, Polite and Professional.

Pretty typical pub menu served in a pub restaurant space. My wife's steak and ale pudding was enjoyed but not the suet pastry she expected (and we had to try to get staff attention to seek more gravy, which arrived quickly and was good). My seafood linguine was really nice and I'd have it again for quality. Fortunately, I wasn't starving as it wouldn't have filled me, if I was. Given that we knew the family had moved back here from Over Kellet, where they were successful, we wanted to try their new offer and were fairly pleased

Had a Meal here for the 1st time a Month ago after it was recommended. It was Amazing . I had Cheese and Onion Pie and it was Delicious. The Staff were also lovely and friendly. We will definitely be back

Good honest food lots of it, nice friendly staff, good selection of wines and beers

Good pub food served promptly, much better than average!

In response to the review left by AA I’d just like to clear a few things up. Firstly - as you stated you “over heard” you “over heard” incorrect - I was speaking to the next table in response to them asking a question in regards to the hunt where I told them in actually fact I was the hunt Supporters secretary and couldn’t answer that and actually passed them the details for the secretary so they could ask further, Secondly- like you stated you “over heard” they in fact were from a hunting background and was visiting the area and loved the pictures we have on show on the window ledge and was asking if there was a connection at no point did I approach your table and speak about this to you and at no point did I stand there with a ten foot banner giving my opinion on hunting etc - Thirdly - everyone has a right to an opinion but this isn’t the place this is a place to review FOOD And finally Whilst we’re on this subject- Since the hunting ban of wild mammals which was passed by parliament in 2004, we follow a pre-laid trail and work within the law.

Excellent service and food, will definitely be back. Update, as good as last time

Always a great time to be had here, food is always fabulous as are the staff!

A great turnaround for a pub that was closed for so long. Thwaites beers and good food.

One of my regulars when i travel up from essex to visit my mother...Great food, fast service, polite staff, you need to book

Newly refurbished pub, very comfortable atmosphere, attentive friendly staff and good food, reasonably priced . What more can you ask for 😊😊

Just a great place to visit...been there before it shut down, On a trip to Asygarth falls, and my wife & i decided great to see it open again...!!!!

Pyszne jedzonko, mila obsługa, ogródek tylko odstrasza.

Great local. Well kept beer, good quality and well portioned homemade food and friendly staff.

Lovely place to eat, be warned the servings are massive!! The food is freshly cooked and we'll presented. Service was lovely and all the staff were welcoming and warm.

Had food here whilst on a trip and have to say the service and the food were both amazing, the staff were friendly and accommodating with a great atmosphere.

A great, varied menu as well as daily specials. Something for everyone. Lovely atmosphere and super-friendly team. Cannot fault. It was bustling and the staff were on point. Give this place a try if you haven't already. We will be back!
