The Royal Oak Inn in South Lakeland

Great food and local beer in a proper traditional pub

Couple in with a VERY loud barking dog, VERY annoying, there was 9 of us and were ready to leave but thankfully they left, Staff should have picked up on this and asked them to keep their dog under control, they even let it lick food off the plates and table, not acceptable, 🤬🤬

Absolutely glorious little pub with rooms. Made smart recently but all the original features kept. Beautiful beams floor bar and walls. Lovely rooms, simple but smart and modern feel but again original features. And most importantly the amazing Fell Brewery beers on tap and hand pull. Very highly recommended.

Great little pub in the heart of Cartmel. We stopped here for lunch after a good walk and their selection of local beers is brilliant. Lovely light bite for lunch and made to feel dead welcome (even with mud up to our knees!).

Attentive and friendly staff with excellent food and located right in the middle of the village. Recommended.

Great food for a lunchtime visit. Dog friendly.

Had a meal in the bar, which was very good, and there was great service from the male server. Food was delicious.

Went fir bar dinner at night, service was excellent gent who served us was very friendly and helpful. All the main courses were very good and the Sticky pudding was excellent. .

Had dinner in the pub. Food was fine but not outstanding. Nice beers.

We stopped for dinner, group of 6 of us (5 adults + 1 child.) I had the cheeseburger and it was delicious. Everyone enjoyed their food. Service was friendly but not over the top. Two family members tried a few of the local pints and they were also delicious, especially the cherry cider. Definitely on the more pricey side, but I'd pay it again for how nice the food was. Being able to bring the dogs in was just an added bonus.

Lovely beer garden at the back. A quiet spot to enjoy a drink right in the centre of town. Friendly staff.

We didn't stay over but the food and staff were 👍 great

Excellent food, and good choice of real ales, including gluten-free options for myself. Would definitely return.

Love the beer garden and great place if your dog enjoys a pint.

Lovely stay! Beautiful rooms in a beautiful location. Cartmel is delightful and charming without all the hustle and bustle of other hotspots in Cumbria

The Sunday roasts at the Royal Oak are spectacular. 10/10

Had a lovely meal here. The service and atmosphere were great.

Always stop by in this pub when visiting Cartmel. The food is good quality and good value and the beer is very good. A nice pint of draught beer whilst eating lovely fish and chips!
