The Royal Oak in Coventry

f think it's a laugh at these times. Asked if any Stella on tap. No was his reply I'll have a madri then please. How come no Stella I said his reply was the madri is cheaper. To my surprise the madri was £5,20 so I said I thought you said the madri is cheaper than Stella for him to say yeah cheaper for us to buy in not for u customers.

Just had my 60th bash in the Oak’s function room. Excellent service all round, big shout out to Grace who helped host the event and was so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. And James for sorting the logistics beforehand , including the photo slide show. Pulled pork batches and mushroom alternative also went down a treat. It was a squash and a squeeze for the 60 guests but didn’t detract from a fabulous evening.

Always busy great atmosphere. Really great service. Staff always coming round to see if you would like another drink. Best Bass

We didn't eat there, so I can only appreciate the atmosphere and the truth was an English pub like the traditional ones! A good handful of beers to choose from around £4 a pint.

The prices are absurd, literally unjustifiable. It's very local for us, but we won't use it. A once great pub, like so many in Earlsdon, but now gentrified horribly into a gouging paradise.

We only visited for drinks but quality, service and atmosphere was excellent 👌

Great local pub with big courtyard

A really nice pub, kept well and the staff are friendly. There is a distinct lack of atmosphere though and it's really expensive.

Fun place, very busy but got served quickly.

Great atmosphere, had a lovely day here.

Lively pub, with a labyrinthine beer garden and a decent selection of beer.

Nice atmosphere, but very busy and noisy. Met up with friends here before going out for a meal.

Great beer garden with plants and patio heater

Enjoyed a lovely pint and some great company.

Alright place, but the drinks are a bit expensive even for Earlsdon standards, and the atmosphere isn’t very welcoming.

Loved the pub for many years. Have moved away from the area,, but always good to go back when visiting for a familiar crowd and to talk with friends without shouting over music.... cos thankfully, they still don't play any. Just the natural atmosphere of what a pub should be.

Lovely place with nice selection of drinks and snacks.

Great evening had here. The pizzas are great.

A bit pricey, but nice place where I usually would visit for a glass of whiskey or gin. It feels like friendly welcoming place inside

Love this place garden is big and nice beer

Good Guinness 👌🏼 tidy outdoor area at the back and a reasonable function room in too. Solid pub where you can pay more than the local spoons to avoid the riff raff like Sean Underwood.

Very nice ambiance. Friendly staff. BUT drink prices...burnt. One to avoid if you want more than 1 London priced drink.

Love this place, great service especially the fab table service, lovely setting, can get busy and the hubby tells me one of the best pints of guineas in Coventry other than the Hearsall.

Good place to catch up with family and friends when I'm in Coventry

The Royal Oak is a traditional English pub. These days it is a free house, owned by Harry and John. The interior decor is great; as you would expect, all of the furniture, the bar and the surrounding woodwork is made of oak. There is a good choice of beer, wine and spirits here. Snacks are available too. Harry and John also own the eateries each side of the pub. You can eat to your heart's content, indulging in traditional English, and Italian, in Millsy's on the one side of The Oak, and Smokehouse food with a Kansas/ St. Louis barbeque and burger trend on the other side, in the restaurant called 'Street'. The Oak and its neighbours are well worth exploring. Well done, Harry and John, you have added another dimension to the lovely urban village of Earlsdon.

Generally great pub but Pinot wine rancid ( taste and temperature) Royal Oak please sort it!

Good pub with outside seating area out back, though because much of it is glass covered can be too hot in sunny weather...good for rain though!! Ok selection of gins rums and spirits. Table service by glass collectors is a helpful touch.

Love the interia, and outside space

Great beer garden which is perfect to enjoy a glass of pink fizz. Barman was really friendly.

Great staff, nice vibe, good beer

The team were amazing, a great bar

Very nice pub,staff were very nice and helpful.great place for families tomeet.

Bottle of wine was very expensive. Approx £27.

Great service polite staff and great atmosphere.

Great beer garden (loads of seating available), good service, reasonable prices and a nice atmosphere.

Popular pub on Earlsdon high st . Small function room at the back with bar . Great food supplied for private function . Amazing roast potatoes and pulled pork. Good vibe in general area .

Great pub, friendly staff and good service

Great beers and nice atmosphere with no loud music

Always slightly sad to be asked to meet at the Royal Oak. It's popular and busy, but the beer is average and expensive and there's not that much choice. Perhaps they could have a guest ale each week. Staff are great!

Good pint, nice outdoor seating

Nice pub, live sport and a nice choice of beers. Friendly staff.

This was a lovely pub, only had a half as was ale trailing but very nice beer, good selection of real ales. Will be back to sample the 'beige buffet' mmmm

Fantastic local pub with a great atmosphere and friendly customer service! Perfect for anyone wanting to grab a pint and catch up with friends or enjoy a quiet drink by the fireplace!

Friendly busy pub staff helpful and happy

Went for a drink here a few months ago after going and eating at the cottage .. just wanted to have a drink at an outside table with some friends.. because we had our little dog we were not allowed even tho it was outside !! ...me and my partner had to leave but we said to our friends you stay .. we won't be going back there again !! Shame on you The Royal Oak...

I love this pub! Really good outdoor courtyard and usually some great draft beers on tap. Staff are great and the only thing I miss is they used to do pork pies, which seem to have gone with the pandemic.

Reasonable (HPA Wye Valley), but expensive beer. Nice inside. Outside courtyard is OK, but impossible to get away from smokers. I'd frequent a lot more if they thought a bit more about people enjoying a beer outside WITHOUT contending with second-hand smoke.

Nice friendly pub serves nice food good drinks

Great pub, brilliant atmosphere

Great place fantastic atmosphere

Great staff . The IPA was one off the best ive had

It's a nice enough place - has a nice garden. Lots of new staff at the moment post covid lock down, and all lovely!

Fabulous vegan meal! Great place to catch up with a special friend

Great food, lovely pub layout & decent sized beer garden. Really friendly staff!

Food is expensive for the portions In terms of seating it is compact and there are seats outdoors for walk ins Will try food food items when I get the chance

Stopped for a quick lunch on our way to Manchester, the staff were amazing and managed to book us in at the last minute. Service was very friendly and attentive and food was delicious, the frickles were inspired and the brisket burger was very tender. Will definitely visit again when in Coventry!

Visited on Saturday just after the City went into Tier 2. The Bar and Staff coped brilliantly and done a fantastic job. Thank you

Good pint. Waiter / waitress service. Not this silly app nonsense

Un buen pub inglés, espacioso y con una buena terraza. Personal joven y amable. Recomendable

Just what the doctor ordered,good social distancing

Distancing observed, chilled place for a pint

Lovely pub with nice outside good parties rooms available to book aswell

Great service , and the best burgers ever👌

A great place for a quiet drink on a Sunday afternoon. No kids, No teens, No Hassles

Fabulous traditional pub. No piped music. Real fire, excellent ales and table service...fantastic!

Pleasant enough pub, not overly expensive. Busier than I thought for a Friday night but there's always space outside (with heaters) if it's too full inside.

Excellent pint of Bass as usual and efficient, friendly service

Great evening lovely place to catch up with your friends

Love this pub so professional and table service is an added bonus!!!

Fun and friendly atmosphere and good ales

Nice pint of Bass one was not enough

Excellently kept Landlord and Bass cask beer, and I've yet to try the others! Usually, the bartenders offer table service for subsequent rounds. A nice touch. Good food too. This pub should be in the CAMRA good beer guide. Recommended!

Not there long but lovely looking place and nice service

Lovely pub with a nice courtyard though shared with smokers. A bit pricey but they do have a waitress service though not always on.

Always a pleasure to enjoy a Sunday afternoon beer in this fine Public House

Amazing drinks and service, but the place is always packed.

Nice chilled all age groups enjoyed my night out with friends

People were ignoring the no smoking signs and smoking in the covered area of the garden. Yuk

Great selection of ales and a covered beer garden for the English summer weather!

Nice pub with good service. Good open-air sitting area out the back

The royal oak is a decent pub to go to. It's a good place for conversation with your friends or bar staff and a relaxing pint.

Very busy good place for a drink but not a quiet one

Friendly family pub and live entertainment every week, open mic afternoon is every Sunday between 2pm and 6pm.

Well this is a part of the city I do like.Busy in place to go

Brilliant atmosphere & friendly customers.

It's on a street with several other bars, each a little different. This would represent a slightly upscale but really accessible and enjoyable environment. Great value, good for groups, well used by locals, late nights, good food as the owner has a restaurant one side and a cafe/restaurant/bar the other it's all good!!

Great place very good funcion room for smaller parties say for sixty people we had a great time staff were very good

Lovely place nice surroundings and pleasant staff. Had a private function there and food was very well prepared and presented. Nice patio area outside under cover if it rains too

Nice staff very pleasant environment

Nice pub- good location to be included with some other pubs for a pub crawl.

Great place to meet friends on occasions. I like the idea of orders taken from your table.

The acustics in here make it hard to hear, you have everyone shouting.

Great local pub. Slightly dearer for wines. A small glass of Sav Blanc is 4.95, medium 5.50 but the quality is good. Lovely outdoor area with heaters in corner. Tasty toasted sandwiches & the beige platter - pork pie and pickle is fab. Excellent service by bar staff..

Good pub with nice size beer garden

Great place, a bit noisy with the regulars but isn't that a good thing?

Again a high scoring pub. As a consequence gets busy. Good choice of ales and lager. Outside smoking area and back room that can be hired.

Very good night great atmosphere felt safe which is more important these days would recommend x

We always end up in this pub on our Christmas night out from the office. It has been extended over the years, so it can accommodate a lot of people. Good variety of drinks available. There is a lathe outside area which will suit the smokers, but also those who like the outdoor feel.

Lovely food as always, only downside is that waiting times have become longer - has been noted on several occasions recently - despite how busy or quiet the place is 😐

Nice pub warm and cosy. Lovely atmosphere and clean. The staff seem friendly. Good selection of drinks and good to visit. The only problem is that they charge too much for drinks . I got 2 double captain Morgan's and coke costs me £14.:it's like being in London lol. And nearly £4 a pint of Guinness and for a pork pie it was £5 so I will let you lot decide. Never mind don't think I will be going back there in a hurry.
