Went for a carvery on a Sunday. Let me start by saying the food was actually really decent. I would go back for the food. The service on the other hand although polite was just way too slow. We actually had to go and get someone so we could order a dessert nearly 30 minutes after finishing our carvery and in the 2 hours we were there only managed to order 2 drinks. The meat and sides at the carvery were nice and you got plenty. The chef cut the meats well and gave you as much as you wanted which was really good. The crispy potato skin started was actually very very good.

Sadly the service wasn't great. After taking our orders and writing them down. They delivered my three friends meals and not mine, 10mins later they realised I was still waiting?? Then came up and asked what I had ordered?? I then had to wait some time before my food finally arrived and by that time my friends food was cold, sadly.

We had heard a lot of good things about this place so decided to give it a try. Food was really nice but if I had to be picky I'd say the chicken pakora was very chewy and quite tough. Apart from that the staff who dealt with us were lovely. There was about 8-10 flies above the doorway to the bar area but that's not the staff or hotels fault. It could get annoying depending where you sit tho.

I'm part of quite a large family so 8 of us (3 kids and 5 adults) arrived here without booking and without much of a problem we were given comfortable seats. We all got the carvery and the man who carved and served our meat upstairs had a lot of banter and gave us great portions. The vegetables and gravy were fantastic too! The cauliflower cheese wasn't the best unfortunately. We got dessert afterwards, the Oreo Sundae was brilliant and there was lots of whipped cream and chocolate sauce. The drinks were as expected for any restaurant. Overall, service was quick, the servers were lovely and polite, the food was really nice and the restaurant is a lovely place to take the family on the weekends. I would highly recommend this place.

The staff are very friendly and they tend to your every need. Very quick service and staff are always smiling and very pleasant.

Thought it looked a nice pub to grab a bite to eat. Was told to find a table and given menus, but then when we went to order were told that "We're not serving food tonight as we've got a party of 30 coming in". So why give us a menu?? Total waste of our time.

Would have gave this 3 stars but but recently put in a takeaway food order for collection over the phone and when I collected it was told it was going to be over 40 quid. I immediately questioned this and was told it was restraunt prices even tho I was collecting a takeaway.... Obviously at no point what so ever was anyone planning on telling me this. I told the waitress that was not good enough and I felt I was being forced to pay that because yous had already made it.. They looked at me in disgust. I felt totally taken advantage off and deffo won't be back

Got a take away from here to collect asked on the phone to see how much it would be and repeatedly got a completely different price from what I calculated online from there online meanu they tried to over charge me by more than 15 pounds...I then explained I was getting a different price from take away menu for the woman I spoke with to be quite frankly rude and kept saying sorry as no where has updated the price wither it be online or in restaurant massively has put me off and very disappointed wouldn't recommend going here if they can't even sort prices out then try to over charge you with 15 pounds.

Very disappointed in customer service after being given a menu that clearly said £8.45 for a cheese burger but was later charged £10.95. After inquiring to the waitress upon providing payment and being handed the receipt that showed each item ordered with prices levied, the waitress momentarily left to check and returned to say that the price was £10.95. I said that if I had known that it was that price, I might have ordered something else. I was certain of what I remembered seeing on the menu and before leaving, paused at the front desk to look at one of the menus being cleaned by the bar, which indeed confirmed that I had in fact seen £8.45 for the cheese burger. I pointed out the mistake to the waitress, and she just apologized, and asked if I wanted to speak to the manager. I said yes, that would be appreciated...and a few moments later, another associate arrived and asked what I needed. I explained that I was overcharged. She asked where I got the menu from, I had to repeat myself twice, for clarification that the menu was given to me by the waitress. She saw the price on the menu sitting on the nearby bar but just kept apologizing that it was an old menu and the prices have increased recently, then she threw away that menu, and began to search through the stack of menus. She found several other menus with that price and tossed them into a nearby trash can as well, offering me no refund or resolution whatsoever for their mistake. I very politely said that I was not happy with being overcharged, but my concern was met with repeated dismissal apologies and nothing more. I then left to catch up with the rest of my party who had already gone ahead toward the car. I would strongly recommend avoiding this establishment. Plan ahead, and make a reservation at any other nearby restaurant instead, to prevent our situation where everywhere else is booked and hunger forces you to settle for this restaurant. A restaurant that does not care about proper service and accurate menu prices, won't make amends even after admitting to their mistake and to overcharging for their food menu items because they presumably gave us an outdated menu; a place that believes that subpar treatment of its patrons is acceptable, for what amounts to mediocre food. A restaurant that for obvious reasons had immediate available seating. Tho I must say that the french fries were served quite hot. And the purple tartan carpeting was rather pretty; but of course we did not go there for the floor coverings. Receipt info: August 11, 2022 @ 19:22 Waitress Lauren Table 10 There really is no excuse for the manager of The Royal Oak to not make things right and at least try to correct the price that they overcharged us, once the mistake was made apparent to them.
