Absolute little gem of a local traditional pub. Great tasty pub food. Very friendly staff. Was warned we were very lucky to get a table and booking was advised.

We came upon this by chance. We fancied a quick drink and, after seeing the menu, we decided to eat. I chose something that I would never have dreamed of but my partner chose it, so I had the same. It was a chicken with Stilton cheese sauce & vegetables. Absolutely delicious. Considering it was a Tuesday evening, the restaurant was fully booked so we ended up eating in the bar. A wonderful atmosphere. It wasn't cheap but it certainly keeps the lager louts away. Would I go back?. Yes, definitely, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

There is much to enjoy: superb venue, reasonable prices, and delicious food, but vegetarian choice a little limited in scope. Nevertheless, this is an easy venue to recommend.

Lovely pub for a good meal with friends. The food is definitely gastro pub standard and there is a nice selection of beers and wines. It was moderately noisy when we started but quietened towards late afternoon. It ends up being quite dear but I wouldn't say it was poor value.

Two of our roast beef’s were fatty with a white sinu through the middle, even the meat area was hard to cut with a normal knife. I’ve had Aberdeen Angus cattle so know what good meat should be like. One pudding was provided incorrectly to what was ordered and suddenly got replaced. We have had good meals with you but were disappointed yesterday.

The food was excellent this time. Steamed Sea Bream Asian style notably good. Went Valentines Day, but like the table next to us only given the Valentines menu at time of the desert. Strange. As usual for the staff the girls were doing the work. One young blonde girl doing most of the serving. The men couldn't be bothered to take a full order and gave the impression that they were above the menial tasks. But overall it was good. Thank you.

Place is nice, food is good (although they need to vary the menu from time to time) but dessert was disappointing. Service lets them down as staff appear to lose interest as the meal progresses and some of the staff come across as sullen and not wanting to be there.

The food we had was very good . One of the party had the shepherds pie, not a good choice if you were hungry as a smallish portion, and I felt quite overpriced. The chicken was very good as was the pizza. It’s a shame that the pub doesn’t do a specials board. We didn’t have deserts as the choice was not to our taste. The menu on the whole was small, it doesn’t seem to change much. Nice venue to go too and in the warmer weather they have a nice outside space. Good to go to occasionally.

The roast pork was horrid it was very fatty and the roast potatoes where barely roasted at all, they were very hard in the middle like they had not been boiled long enough, certainly not worth the money we paid for Sunday lunch. We have eaten here many times before and the food is usually great, but we won’t ever be returning for the Sunday lunch as it was by far the worst meal we have ever had at the Royal Oak. It was a real let down as we were celebrating my mums 85th birthday, she barely touched her pork. My partner & I had the beef which was also rather fatty, but the biggest dissatisfaction was the anaemic looking hard roast potatoes. The bill was about £150 which we normally wouldn’t worry about but after having my mums 85th birthday lunch scuppered with subpar food, it’s put us off going back again.

Great Sunday lunch experience. Having not been to the Royal Oak for a few years, having moved further away, it was a pleasant return and a very enjoyable meal. The pea and ham soup was very enjoyable as were the mushroom starters. The roast dinners were excellent. The flat iron steak was very tasty. Crumble tart and cheese board very enjoyable too. Thank you for looking after us.

The Royal Oak is a warm and welcoming place to visit for dinner. Service was very good, food very tasty. The gravy for the shepherds pie was particularly good. Only slight negative being the bread and nibbles sharer, this was a bit underwhelming. Would recommend to others for a visit.

The pub is one of my favourite pubs in Berkshire- stunning building, atmosphere and great service. We went for Sunday lunch yesterday. I always book a table in the orangery. The beef was stringy and not very hot. The Yorkshire puddings were delicious and the sticky toffee pudding wasn't very sticky or hot and the ball of ice cream tiny. It cost £12. Not at all value for money. £55 for a roast, a pudding and a large glass of Malbec. Judge for yourselves.

Kids pizza good little on the darker side on the bottom I know neapolitan style is ment to have dark spots but it was a little over on the base in places. And kids 2 course is £12.50 is quite expensive when we only had the pizza and were not offered the ice cream. Other than that the table was nice next to the fire and a warm welcome was nice.

We dine at The Royal Oak several times per year and live locally . We shared a King Prawn/ Chorizo starter . It is really tasty . Mains; I had the Flat Iron Steak (Medium Well) and Sarah the Sea Bass All food was cooked as requested and seasoned well . The staff were all really attentive and pleasant . The venue is also lovely . The only downside was that the portion size of Sea Bass served to Sarah could only be described as "Meagre" actually worse that even "Small" Perhaps a couple of forks of flesh and no more . That said my Steak was perfect in size, taste and degree of cooking . So overall the Royal Oak is excellent is all I can honestly say . We will certainly visit again. Best David

The Royal Oak in Yattendon has always been fabulous. My first visit was in 1983 and up until I moved away from the area 15 years ago it was a regular haunt. It is now very different but the essentials remain - great people, great beer and most importantly great food. Go out of your way to visit. A special mention for Helena who together with her colleagues looked after us really well.

Disappointing experience as wanted to be in the conservatory so my baby girl could look at the tree and apparently there were no tables (even though I requested this on booking too). Also ran out of steak before dinner service and our reservation was booked for 4.45pm. Usually love it here but felt let down on Christmas Eve and had a table by the door…!
