I would like to review the Royal oak on its food but I didn't get the chance. We arrived at The Royal Oak at 1.40.pm on a Saturday. We bought 2 drinks and picked up the lunch menu and the specials menu and asked if the special, which was cottage pie, was still avaliable. The barman (tall man with glasses) replied yes it was. We then went to find a table and look at the menu's. After 5 mins I returned to the bar to order some food. There was a couple in front of me being served with coffee's. As they were served one of them picked up a menu and before he could ask anything the barman very abruptly and in a loud voice said " we ain't taking more food orders, we have a large party turned up and we can't do anymore!!!!!" They both stared at him with what I could only describe as a look of terror as though they had just been told off by a victorian school teacher. I then said to the barman that it would have been nice to have been told earlier when we asked about the specials. To which he looked at me and went into the courtyard for a cigarette. I know you can't judge the pub on one person but it was very uncomfortable. All he had to do was say "Im very sorry but we are extremely busy in the kitchen and can't take any more orders" in a calm manner. If you work in the hospitality industry you need to be able to communicate better with people. Hopefully it was a one off. We will try there again and update you all.

Ideally located in the centre/high street in Chipping Sodbury. Went here for lunch as you enter it has an old pub feeling with sticky carpet floors. That aside the staff were friendly and escorted us to our table out the back which has a newer, more modern decor. The menu was poor and very limited. Maybe it was a Sunday and the roasts were the main attraction so hence the drop of a star. Otherwise the food was great, we had steak pie, fish bucket and lamb roast. The desserts were also good and the staff were brilliant throughout.

Booked a table only a few hours prior to visiting online. They responded quickly and confirmed our dog was welcome. We arrived at three and they showed us our table in the bar. Table was fine as I think dogs are probably not allowed in the restaurant section? All I’d say is, the table could have been laid up a bit ‘nicer’ and there wasn’t much atmosphere as it was a bit of an odd time and so probably the lunchtime clients had either left or were in the restaurant section. Good portion size for the meat and vegetables but probably could have had more potatoes. Not sure if Yorkshire puddings were homemade. Overall - yes I’d go again, as it’s local and dogs allowed

Friday night was Karaoke night. Not too busy as Sodbury had something on during the day which might have knackered people out. The pub is friendly, staff friendly. The Karaoke was fun, and my mates blasted out a few oldies which had others in the pub joining in of the chorus. In the words of Arnie, I'll be back.

We visited the Royal Oak for lunch while in the area, we ordered two cokes which tasted funny but we saw past that and was hopefully that the food was going to be better. We ordered a jacket potato with prawn Marie and hunters chicken. The jacket was dry, and the prawns was warm. The salad it came with was awful. Dried up cucumber, a pile of cress, some grated carrot, a lettuce leaf and a slice of orange on top. Not what I would call a salad if I’m honest. Getting to the hunters chicken it was advertised to come with “chips and peas” it actually came with a handful of skinny fries, and this awful salad again. My partner cut the end and ate it, cut through the middle and noticed it was still pink, on raising it with the man behind the bar he said sorry and took it away and then brought another one out about 25mins later, by which time I had finished my food. We then was sat at the table and what we believe was the cook walked out the kitchen area, she had no chef whites on just a dirty old apron. If I had seen the cook before we wouldn’t of eaten there simple as that. So if you want under cooked chicken here’s the place to go!

We have visited the Royal Oak for Sunday lunch twice in the last few weeks . So impressed by the excellent quality of the food , for me it has regained its reputation for the best roast in the area. The meat was plentiful.and delicious , nice variety of vegetables , a large jug of gravy, everything served nice and hot . So in conclusion if you are looking for a great Sunday lunch try the " Oak "

Went for a drink with friends for the first time recently. Atmosphere was good with a good crowd inside. Good beers/ales on tap as well. Area to the left of the bar is a bit of a strange space which could probably do with some work (built in sofas/ rustic tables and chairs). Nonetheless a good solid working country pub.

Have been to this restaurant many times in the past and have always received excellent service and food. That was until our recent visit. We asked for the wine list to be told there isn't one, so the waitress told us what was available but no prices . Ok maybe this was our fault for not asking. The wine came but no glasses for us to drink it . Then all the dishes of vegetables and the plates with your meat and other bits on, but no serving spoons. We did ask but by the time they had brought them to the table we had used our own cutlery. Otherwise our food would have been cold. We then asked for a floater coffee only to be told that the person that makes it has gone home. Surely all the staff should be able to make a floater coffee. We then got our bill to find out that a bottle of wine that is usually around £16 was charged £22. We did dispute this but was told by Neil that we should have asked for the prices. No customer service from him at all.we normal leave a £10-£15 tip as you can gather they didn't get any tip on this visit. Also there is no hot water in the toilets and no soap. With everything that's going on with the Corona virus this should'nt happen.Very reluctant to go back after this experience. Although the food is still good. Just need to give the staff more training.
