Royal Oak

Great atmosphere, fantastic service and really tasty authentic food. Would recommend to groups and couples alike, a cosy village restaurant pub with a difference.

Lovely little pub with great food and atmosphere. Really does have authentic old low beams so beware anyone over 5 foot 6inches! Tucked away behind the Kings Hotel about half a mile from junction 5 on the M40 next to a wonderful old church amongst little cottages and a little village green. Really thought I had discovered a gem until my 80 year old mother told me she had been a regular there in her heyday and got married in the church next door! Food is sort of Indian cum Chinese menu. Not huge variety but what comes out is all very nice and the price is reasonable. Service is good and drinks prices pretty average for a pub. It was a lovely evening the day we went so was able to sit outside for quite awhile before going in to eat and that made it even more atmospheric. Can’t wait for a nice cold winter evening to try out the old fireplace inside I bet that will be special. Definitely worth a visit.
