It's many years since we last had a meal at the Cowpers Oak but fancying a change, my wife and I ventured forth to see if it had changed any. Turning into the car park and seeing the number of cars parked, there would be no room for 'walk ins' but in we went. Very busy with loads of folks standing around and a real buzz about the place. Expecting the "we're full" response to asking for a table, the very bubbly waitress dumbfounded us with 'of course' then gave us a choice of seats. Drinks ordered, delivered, menus perused and food order all done & dusted within 10 minutes. Great range of drinks and a good basic no frills menu which really did have a number of dishes I would like to have tried. I had the stew with dumplings which if I was to be critical would say that a little more meat would have set it off but a good range of veg, mash and a lovely gravy made a smashing meal. My wife had their chicken burger with bacon & cheese, also well presented and cooked to perfection. By the end of our main course we had to decline the deserts as we were full, such were the helpings, so perhaps more meat would have tipped us over the top. The atmosphere in the pub was really reminiscent of years passed but by 8:30, so many had left that it had lost a little of its impact. Give the staff their due, they were still vibrant and oozing enthusiasm for the customers who were still there. A grand wee pub which we will certainly go back to sooner, rather than later.

Superb restaurant, myself and a friend wanted to check out the loaded hot dog and unlimited wing night helds on a Thursday.Absolutely superb, the food was incredible and in the end we decided to over pay.Check out the photos, all can be had for £15.The owners dads secret recipe bbq sauce was sublime, I tried to buy a bottle of it. Hostesses were equally superb.Definitely check it out on a Thursday or any day for that matter

Fantastic country pub in the beautiful village of Western Underwood and had a amazing dining experience here the staff were very friendly and helpful the place itself is old-fashioned and at the front was the public bar and at the back was the dining area toilets were clean and tidy huge beer garden at the back with kids play area I visited today with family and had lots to offer on the menu and great prices too sat in the bar and had a 3 course meal for the starter I had BBQ wings and for the main I had roast turkey which was really tender with lovley roast potatoes and a big Yorkshire pudding you can also request for these when you run out and I had jam roly poly and custard for the pudding and that was really nice too it did get a bit busy when here as it was a Sunday but other than that it was a wonderful pub and a good experience my 1st time visiting not far from Olney or Newport Pagnell

Favourite pub in the local area. Smokehouse menu is excellent, especially the wings!

Fab Sunday lunch here! Great food and service. A warm welcome, and order taken promptly after getting our drinks. Sunday roasts served on hot plates with all the expected trimmings. Delicious! Nice atmosphere and roasts are served until 4.30! Highly recommended!

The Cowpers Oak is the best pub in bucks. The atmosphere, food and service are all phenomenal. Joe is an excellent chef and all of the wait staff are attentive and make you feel so welcome.

I stayed at Cowper's Oak last night following dinner there. The staff were friendly and the service and food were both excellent. This was only bettered by the quality of the bedroom. Nothing too fancy but it was spotlessly clean and had everything I needed - including a wonderful shower. The white fluffy towels and bathrobe were an added bonus. I'll stay there again!

Stayed here for work, tbh didn’t fancy it when work put me here, how wrong I was Where do I begin, Joe & Debbie excellent hosts great people , food is excellent 10/10 , though the atmosphere in the bar , during open mic nights etc and , just local people enjoying the sun an good food and drink in the beer garden , to describe as a pub or B&b does it a dispersive , it’s a community hub and village asset
