A very warm welcome for us last night (3/9/24) with help for my daughter who uses a wheelchair, the lady had no issues with putting a ramp out for her. Our two dogs were also welcomed and they slept (mostly) well under the table. The food was really good quality and the rump steak was excellent, well seasoned and a great cut of meat. Friendly atmosphere with lots of dog owners enjoying themselves, The staff were excellent as well and nothing was too much trouble. Well worth a visit in my opinion

We came here for lunch after visiting Ross on wye in the morning. We had lunch in the orangery. I would technically say this is a 4.5* review as wasn't perfect but very good. When we got there the lady serving seemed a bit stressed as it was busy but she had help about half way through. I had the sausage & mash, the BEST sausage & mash I've ever had. If they added onions to it in some description it would be 12/10. So yummy. Pudding was nice but not as wow as the main. Good value for money. Everyone at our table said it was the best meal of the week.

Such a beautiful lunch at the Royal Oak with two dear friends. We had a table in the restaurant with a wonderful view of the gorgeous Cotswold countryside. We even saw the Santa Express steam train on its way from Cheltenham to Winchcombe via Toddington. The food was delicious and the service and Christmas decorations were lovely. All in all a very enjoyable time and I’ll certainly be back soon. One tiny negative was the salt shakers were empty but soon replenished when we mentioned it!

Absolutely massive Sunday lunch and tasted beautiful

As somewhere which served food on a Sunday evening this was pretty much our only choice in Parkend. A shame it is so poor. Prior to going emails requesting a booking went ignored. A phone call secured a booking but, on arrival, no booking.... not a great start, but it was quiet so we got in. I wish they had turned us away. Our starters were nice but required zero skill in the kitchen to be so. The mains were a different matter. Only a Sunday roast was available, which ought to have been fine. it was not. The meats were like leather, the veg soggy, the roast veg was chewy rather than crispy, the Yorkshire pud and roast spuds gave the strong impression of coming out of a frozen packet and the stuffing could have been used to break windows etc. Very poor indeed. The worst Sunday roast ever? It's a contender..... If a chef works here, you could have fooled me! Will not go here again.
