The Royal Oak is in walking distance, so we popped down one Thursday evening. It was fairly quiet when we arrived at seven so we had our pick of tables. There was a really friendly and helpful welcome and service, with drinks bought to the table. Food arrived before long. Chips were crisp outside and fluffy in, and a good portion. Chicken was as described on the menu, simple and tasty. Staff had a friendly chat with us when we left. The pub interior has had a sympathic make over, and is clean, comfortable and good to visit. The evening got busier, so a popular venue. We will be back.
