Classic British pub with all the usual fare. Friendly staff and good selection of real ales and keg beers. Nice bar food, rolls, pork pie and snacks. Highly recommended for a change to the modern soulless pubs of the area. Sports on the TVs for anybody interested, but not intrusive. Bar and lounge or snug and lounge. Small beer garden weather permitting.

Being a firm real ale fan (without a beard or b.o. , amazingly ?) I must say the Royal Oak consistently serves some of the best real ale in the West Midlands, in my view. A small, busy, well kept, clean, comfortable pub, devoid of unnecessary frills, whistles and bells, just doing what a traditional pub should be doing which is a complete change from the norm in these modern times. Next to no food available (unless a crusty cob and packet of scratchings floats ya boat ! Yes please !) Great selection of proper beer with the usual assortment of dross for the "lager boys" of the Parish. Never had a dodgy or bad pint, need I say more ! Well done and keep up the good work. It just gets better, if it were possible

Lovely pub, picturesque outside and inside, you would think you're out somewhere nice in the countryside, not in West Brom! Very nice selection of beer and real ales, with great service. I've paid first-time visits to seven local pubs so far this fortnight while my wife has been abroad, and I have to say this one has probably been my favourite of the lot.

A proper community local, simply superb. Real ale, spot on, clean, bright and welcoming. It's a quaint little proper pub. The guy behind the bar was welcoming and warm, pleasant with a smile. Good selection of cask and kegs, casks are well kept and beautifully served. If your in the area its a MUST visit.

This tiny pub is a 'proper local' complete with an old dog who sits under a table whilst you enjoy your drink. The staff are friendly and the drinks are cheap but it can be difficult to find a seat as the whole place is living-room sized so is full most nights. There is also an additional seating outside. The pub sits on an awkward corner so parking is limited but you'll get a friendly welcome so you'll probably be back again.

**Paradiso: Where Italian Dreams Come True** From the moment we stepped into Paradiso, Maurice's warm welcome enveloped us in hospitality. The interior, reminiscent of a quaint Italian villa, instantly transported us to the streets of Italy where the scent of fresh lemons can be smelt by just looking at the lemon trees as a lovely decor. Our culinary journey began with a tantalizing array of pizzas: pepperoni, pollo e funghi, and margherita. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, with a crispy crust that melted in our mouths. Personal choice was a bit less cheese as the pizzas were filled deep in cheese. The penne al salmone e panna delighted us with its smoked salmon in creamy sauce and chives, perfectly paired with al dente pasta. However, the pollo picante con crema, though flavorful, lacked the spicy punch we had hoped for. The chicken actually felt really flavourless opposite of what was described to be spicy chicken. As we savored each dish, the bill arrived, totaling £80.04. While on the higher end, the quality of the food and the overall experience was somehow worth it . Paradiso may be a splurge, but it's a culinary adventure that's sure to leave a lasting impression.

Been here 3 or 4 times in the past and it’s always been fantastic food great mixed grill and curry, however we came yesterday slightly earlier than usuall around 2pm the place was dead and the food wasn’t great not sure if it was last nights chicken tikka but it was like chewing rubber the lamb jelfrazi was very bitty the texture just wasn’t right. And as I was leaving I looked to the kitchen and saw batches of curry’s on the side,we were the only ones in at the time.🤷♂️ the reason for not giving 1star is because the food was outstanding the previous times maybe it was just a one off. Paid £86 very disappointed
