Visited last week on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. I had a venison steak with a mild pepper sauce and it was cooked to perfection, OH had the game pie which he really enjoyed, all very nicely presented with fresh mash and vegetables. Very friendly staff and service excellent. Lovely traditional pub with outside seating, very welcoming on... More

After being given this place as a good recommendation felt completely let down. The whole meal would have left me disappointed on Tuesday night at home when you have no time and need to rush off some where. Poor choice. I don't consider steak pie,shepherds pie etc. as any kind of treat for a weekend out. The kids menu says... More

We weren't fortunate enough to stay the night here, but maybe next time as we will definitely go back. Our experience at The Royal Oak was great, great service, great food, great prices, great banter and great staff. Can strongly recommend the gammon (had to get a doggie bag, it was that big) and cheese board, oh that reminds me... More

Our recent visit to The Royal Oak in Spark Bridge was an absolute delight. As a family run establishment, the welcome we received made us feel like long lost relatives. With the majority of bed & breakfast accommodation - That is usually all you get but at The Royal Oak it's all offered with a little more finesse. It's all... More

We only stayed 1 night after running in Hawkshead trail run, but we enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The room was very clean and comfy, the food and ale were spot on. We were made to feel very welcome from start to finish and will definetly be returning in the near future. Many Thanks to all the staff.

Myself, wife and two very hungry kids stopped off at The Royal Oak for a quick bite to eat. With the car park full to the rafters - the signs were looking good and we were not disappointed. Greeted by one of the very friendly staff, we explained we hadn't booked and saw the amount of reserved tables. The waitress... More
