Needs to be kept on top of cleanliness wise. Lovely people running the oak now. But needs to be kept on top of. I ran pubs for 25 years . I know what I'm talking about.

Traditional pub not spoilt by the big brand approach taken by most public houses these days. Bar staff are always friendly and being amongst local faces when you're having a few drinks with friends is what visiting a pub is about for me. Can't fault the place.

Being a regular customer for many years . Have recently noticed a change for the worse. The royal oak was a place to relax with many regular faces but due to it being taken over by another brewery which lowered the prices so encouraging a different clientel . Of which many problems have occurred relating to police being called far to often .What used to be a lovely pub is now a place to be avoided after 8pm

Good lovely pub with plenty of atmosphere. Live music most Friday and Saturday. Staff are hit and miss, may not to be everyone's liking.

Popped in on passing with a stag party. It's a compact place but had a friendly atmosphere. I got the local" vibe yet people recognise you as an out of towner and made a point to have a chat. Real pulled ales which is always a winner and an outside area. Very

Decided on Whitchurch Village to have a drink last night. Tried the Oak first as there was a couple of tables free outside. Got served quite quickly and thought I was good here for the evening. Took a sip of my drink and realised that my Strongbow glass had been filled with lager. I took it back to the bar but had to wait a few minutes to have the error rectified as only one if the two staff behind the bar was serving. The other one, who later identified himself as the Landlord, seemed fixated on the CCTV monitors above the bar but noticed me returning my drink and overheard a pleasant exchange of words with his colleague. As I turned to return to my table I noticed that the Strongbow was swiftly going flat and that it has been served in a wet glass. I turned back around and laughingly said that I thought I night be jinxed and maybe it would be third time lucky. I appreciate that I was wearing a face mask but cant believe that my tone could of bee taken as anything less than jovial. The Landlord told his colleague not tu serve as I was being rude and asked ne to leave after refunding my money. Wont be going here again and wouldn't recommend that anyone else dose. Tried two other bars and felt a bit like goldilocks! Please see other reviews.I turned

Quiet, clean and good priced beer but a shame about the slow service and the young lady behind the bar who looked like she'd rather be anywhere but serving behind the bar and couldn't pick a smile our of a line up.
