The Royal Oak in Arun

Meal fair and reasonably priced. Good service. Some wait for food.

Nice Sunday roast, loads of meat and good value

Excellent place to buy your meat.

We had a lovely family meal at the Pink Pub for lunch. I used the voucher I won at bingo, including a bottle of wine. I had the tomato soup to start and salmon for main. My husband had potato skins to start and steak for main. Our little one shared our starters and had chicken nuggets and chips. Emma our waitress was lovely, friendly and chatty. I was able to swap my potatoes for chips and our son had salad instead of beans or peas. A great choice of condiments and friendly service. Will return, would have stayed longer and had dessert but our little one was under the weather. Thank you xxx

10/10 experience! Visited family who have recently moved to North Bersted and this is their local now. Had the best 3 course meal here and will be returning for definite!

The Royal Oak is affectionately known as the pink pub because of its vibrant exterior paint. We only popped in for a swift pint but found it full of character, plenty of nicknacks and lots of photos from their charity fundraising events.

Really great food nice choice of menu & drinks. Clean toilets & friendly staff

Very homely and pleasant experience

Great Sunday lunch, first visit but will defiantly return. Friendly atmosphere and service.

This was our 2nd visit for Sunday Roast meal. Our 1st visit about 6 weeks back and was absolutely lovely. As first visit really enjoyed thought let's go again. Sadly our 2nd visit wasn't the same meat was fine, sadly the rest of the veg wasn't as nice carrots seemed no taste, cauliflower still quite hard, both boilt and Roast potatoes not much taste either. Will try again soon, as know depends when have a small place as worked in pubs myself in the past, Depends on stock from suppliers given and also sometimes different staff at times and have different ways how prepare and cook.

Went once 8 months or so back. Had Sunday lunch. Was ok.

Great pub, very friendly staff, atmosphere fantastic.

As it says on the tin, it's pink. Great pub

We were driving around the area looking for a road to Bognor Regis. Saw the Royal Oak and stopped for some lunch. It was quite late around 3pm but the staff were really helpful and we had lovely roast dinner at a very reasonable price.

Great Selection of Drinks Food is Good 👍 Friendly atmosphere Staff are friendly

A lovely Olde pub known as 'The Pink Pub'. The food is all home cooked and is delicious 🤗 (Best to book a table). Although you can eat in the public bar. Meals are an average of £12+. The only downside is the price of drinks😬 (£4.70 for a pint of Fosters). A tad expensive 😬

The meat market on Saturday morning in the car park at the rear of the pub is a great place to shop lots of bargains to be found

We were recommended here by my sister in law as somewhere to take my mum as she likes smaller portions, but unless it's a child's menu these are hard to find. Was passing so popped in to see. Food was great, service was great, value was great. Will be bringing mum here and let you know what she thinks.( she's a hard cookie)

Traditional local pub. A beer with colleagues, a good atmosphere, something small to eat.

Here for Mark&Pauls meat van, but excellent service.

Went for an all-day breakfast not realising I wouldn't get it before 12.40. When it came it was awful. I could have drunk the eggs and the bacon was woeful. It might have seen the pan for a minute or so but I don't think further cooking would have improved this blubber. Shan't be going back.

Went to treat myself for breakfast which I eventually received at 12.40. Possibly the worst breakfast I have ever had whilst dining out. I could have drunk the eggs and the bacon was awful. If it spent more than a minute in the pan I would be surprised but nevertheless, even further cooking such blubber wouldn't necessarily have redeemed it. Good mushrooms is all I can say. I am just fortunate that the double act from the pub's own Statler & Waldorf managed to take my mind off things to a certain extent.

It's a very cosy place to spend time, with drinks or a delicious lunch.

Quick lunch ( and a few pints) before we’re off to butlins for the weekend. Very friendly and welcoming. Table service. Lovely lunch. Clean .

Love this pub. Fantastic staff and a real little pub with amazing food

Friendly welcome. Very small public bar. Large car park. Traditional old style pub.

Warmly greeted by the staff. Nice comfortable setting. Lovely food at a very reasonable price (Loved the Double sausage and mash with veg and gravy - all for under £10 - Bargain). Good choice of ales on offer. A great traditional pub on the outskirts of Bognor. We will be back.

Been here plenty of times for both lunch & early dinner. Food stops at 6.30pm. You can get both normal & small size portions if you're not a big eater. Lunch choices as well as hot pub food is baguettes etc. Not a massive area to eat in, 7 or 8 tables I think, but possible space in garden to eat in the summer, although I've never done this & on one occasion we overflowed into drinking area as food area full. Separate drinking bar to eating area (only a very small area to drink in only, in the eating area when food is available). Obviously at 6.30pm tables are cleared in the food area to become seating for drinks & chatting. Lots of locals attend here, definitely busy when we went on a Friday. Lovely staff. Yummy food. We had sweet & sour chicken, chicken & mushroom with pots & veg, egg & chips plus puds of ice cream, sticky toffee pud, cheesecake.

Haven't been to many pubs for a couple of years but popped in this week and still a friendly pub and ordered a Christmas meal and no doubt food will be as good as it always used to be and fine beers

Lovely friendly pub, great pub food, nice atmosphere and just all round pleasant

Had a wake there very good food and service

It was the first time we came here. The bar staff and food was lovely. But the chef was extremely rude and unhelpful.

Visited as it was the only pub in the area with a table. We soon found out why. Let's face it, it's a Fuller's pub so you know your not going to get great food. The burger was over cooked and the bun, I'm still laughing about it! It was more like a rusk than a bun, crunchy and dry. The veg with the other meal was old and reheated. That said, the beer is good and the staff pleasant. They did refund one meal and probably would have refunded both if I wanted but it's been a long time since poor food has made me chuckle like that.

Have passed this pub many times and thought as we were in the area we would give it a try. A large group arrived just before us but the kitchen staff put us in 1st to save delays. The food was 1st class and the helpings were large. The beer was excellent as well. A good choice by us and we will certainly call again when in the area. The food was excellent value and the beer less expensive than other pubs in the town

Traditional pub grub. Well cooked, generous portions, friendly staff. Many thanks.

Live round the corner from pink pub and never before used it . Invited out to eat there AMAZING it is pub grub nothing too fancy but lots of it and well presented. Going to try Sunday lunch next week . Only very small down side is they stop serving at 6.30. And recomend booking as very busy . As a pub staff friendly and lovely well stocked bar,spotless toilets how have we missed this pub !!!!

Lovely old pub. Still holds that country pub feeling. Good food. Nice choice menu. Friendly staff.

Quality little old pub. Great food and a great atmosphere. Fantastic place for a few drinks too

5 stars meal wad delicious. Xxx

Traditional British local pub. Lots of history in this old building.

Great pub, very friendly, good food.

Had a fantastic lunch. The burger fries and salad was superb. Left me stuffed. Also the ham egg and chips looked amazing. First class

Amazing food, excellent quality. Definitely recommend coming here for a meal.

Lunch with very good friends, we particularly likd the option of smaller portions having small appetite

Excellent atmosphere great fun on Sundays for the meat raffle good quality meats to win a place to have fun and a drink

Great family pub nice atmosphere and froendly staff

Home made steak pie wirh fresh veg . Hot plates gorgeous. Friendly staff. Highly recommend

Look after our 6aside footy team on a Monday night

First time at The Royal Oak ( Pink Pub ) food was impeccable will certainly be returning have already booked for a fortnight’s time when we have visitors coming from Eastbourne

Dropped in for a Saturday night gig. The bar area is quite small but we all crammed in and had a great evening. Good beer, friendly staff and locals

Always a 1st class welcome and excellent service of food

Nice Food & Good Beer, What more could you want..

Lovely old fashioned pub with fabulous food and great staff

Best pint of Kronenbourg in the area hands down and huge portions of home made food. Always come down here with my family for meals and drinks.

Brilliant service with friendly staff, great good with big portions at a good price and great beer! Can't ask much more than that from a pub!

Great home cooked food at good prices

Best food in town great afternoon in the pub

Very helpful, and had a better understanding were you need to be careful when you are driving

Presentation, Produce, Portions, Price... Perfect! Returned from a profitable (if rainy) day out at Fontwell races and decided to celebrate with a meal and drinks at The Royal Oak, since we had visited for refreshments the previous evening and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Five of us enjoyed a variety of mains - lamb's liver with bacon and onions, lasagne and chicken curry. Each meal looked beautiful - wished I'd taken photographs - and there was no scrimping on the portion sizes. All of us agreed our dishes were cooked to perfection. A goodly number of bottles of shiraz and several Amstels washed it all down. The icing on the cake was when the proprietress tracked me down to return £20 I had overpaid (my mistake). Thoroughly decent, honest touch to round off the evening. Would highly recommend.

We have just enjoyed the best steak and chips we have eaten for ages washed down by a cold pint. Good honest good with super friendly service.

We had dinner at the Royal Oak last night and we were very pleased with both of our meals. I had trout with chips and salad and my friend had chicken and leek pie with chips and veg. Both meals were delicious. It's a friendly pub with a good atmosphere. We'll worth a visit.

I absolutely love this pub it's fantastic. Such friendly staff good people go there. The food is pretty great as well with a decent amount of options available. It's a dog friendly pub aswell which is great. The regular customers are really nice as well. I'm never disappointed when leaving the pink pub you get exactly what you want friendly service a nice atmosphere with delicious food and more importantly drink.

Good traditional local, must keep supporting our pubs before they're all gone. Good food, good cellar good times.

I had lunch at The Royal Oak today and "The Pink Pub" as it's locally known didn't disappoint. The hunter chicken I ordered was delicious, juicy, and the portion was very generous. Still had a bit of space in my dessert stomach for some homemade treacle tart though! I highly recommend this place to anyone: proper traditional pub with yummy home made food

We've had many meals here and taken family and friends along with us. Great home cooked food and large portions. Staff very friendly and helpful, you won't be disappointed.

Locals are loathe to share the secret of this pink pub by the roundabout. It is as old fashioned inside as out but the food is really good. All home made old fashioned , filling food with no peculiar ingredients with funny names. Lasagne, curry, mince etc and the puddings are just like the ones you might have had at any good school years back - apple and blackberry crumble, sponge pudding etc. Good friendly service and very good prices just add to the advantages. One tip : have the small portion unless you really have a large appetite! It's more than enough and will leave room for the pudding. Large car park entrance off Chichester Rd.

Nice and friendly we will go again and have some lunch next time as it's the 2nd pub I have been to that do lambs liver and bacon. Yum

What can I say, absolutely brilliant. Working away from home. Found the royal oak- food was excellent, great beer and all staff very friendly and welcoming. Local people also great to have a chat with. I just wish there was more places like this. Very highly recommended.

Had a great meal, the staff were very helpful and jovial. Would highly recommend

If you are in need of a well priced Sunday roast look no further. The decor may be a tad twee, but the food and service were amazing. We went for a quick lunch and it was well worth it. The staff were friendly, efficient and Covid rules very evident. It was busy, and many seemed to be regulars. The portions were huge but we did manage pudding - and they were definitely home made and very delicious. Very traditional pub and fare but don't miss it.

just brilliant can't fault it going back again.next week

Very clean ...covid rules very much in force....Food excellent and the staff always willing to help... Middle of the road price range will drinkable beer.

Great friendly pub. You could be there on your own and pretty sure someone would start a conversation. Plus I can walk it into minutes from home!!

Lovely place for dinner, the food and drinks were excellent the staff were nice, the pub was very clean and the gardens were lovely too

Lovely atmosphere, polite staff

Food is brilliant so much on the plate. People are friendly.

Friendly staff lovely little beete garden.

Lovely food, beer and atmosphere, highly recommend.

Returned to the Royal Oak again to sample the food and beer yesterday as have visited before on other occasions and always enjoyed both.. Yet again, we were not to be disappointed. The food portions were of a very generous size(and reasonably priced) and both the quality of the food and beer was sublime and the staff as helpful and friendly as ever. Love you, pink pub. You have an unspoilt interior and 2 old school separate bars which is becoming a rarer thing these days. This pub is highly recommended by both myself and my friend who visited with me yesterday. Keep up the good work and see you again soon!!

Food there is great well worth the money

OK but a long wait and you have to bulk buy so not great.

Had another amazing evening with friends at this friendly pub, the food is amazing, lots of choice on the menu, Janet is lovely, she makes you feel very welcome,,,,,send another big hug when we found out last night there was going to be another lockdown, Sally and Dave xx

Lovely meal as always. Thanks Genna xx

Lovely home cooked food, very friendly, traditional, family run, dog friendly pub x

Love this pub, it's now our local. Good food and beers, very reasonable prices and welcoming friendly staff.

Great local pub with a super landlady and lovely food.

Always good especially home cooked pies and the liver and onion. Always fresh vegetables. Salad is exceptionally good not just lettuce or those various leaves that get stuck in your teeth. Well thought out and good service.

My new favourite place, staff are so welcoming and friendly, food was so lovely and it’s a real ‘English pub’ to the core. Cannot recommend enough!

Went there this evening in passing. What a great find, didn't look great on outside but such a quaint traditional English village pub, the food portion was huge and proper home made food. The owner and staff were as great as the food! Can't wait to visit again

My new favourite place, staff are so welcoming and friendly, food was so lovely and it’s a real ‘English pub’ to the core. Cannot recommend enough!

Excellent service, good food and customer service. Covid safe

£15 minimum on for card payment! Ridiculous given the current advice to use contactless payments!

Lovely team, great buffet option. Very happy.

We booked our daughters christening here. Jan and her team were so helpful from start to finish and put out a great tasting, well priced and well stocked buffet. We will definitely be going back for another visit! Thank you once again!

Friendly. Nice sunny courtyard for a quiet drink this afternoon

A very English oldewordley pub great food and drinks. Bar staff very engageing nice hot food. Well done to all the staff and owners.

Good food, cold beer, great prices

Heritage pub with character. Welcoming bar staff. A must visit when visiting area. Recommended.

Small local pub for a drink and a bite. Good food and a full plate, nothing fancy, but it was tasty and the price is ok.

Fantastically price good portioned and great tasting pub grub
