Friday night was Karaoke night. Not too busy as Sodbury had something on during the day which might have knackered people out.The pub is friendly, staff friendly. The Karaoke was fun, and my mates blasted out a few oldies which had others in the pub joining in of the chorus.In the words of Arnie, I'll be back.

Mid week lunch stop with a very friendly staff. Had incredible bacon sandwich with mushrooms and chips. Very well cooked, beautifully presented and a great traditional pub vibe. Great to see it still operating when I remember it from my teens over 40 years ago.

Lovely pub, staff friendly. Today England Rugby on and so nice to be able to watch it with other people who like it too. Love it here. Often quieter here but lovely for a rugby watcher. Feel like I'm with friends even though I don't know anyone here
Great pub with cosy atmosphere, great range of beers, lovely food and gorgeous staff

The best Sunday roast (lamb) I've had in a long time. Large portions of meat and more veg than you could eat. And the sticky toffee pudding is so light and absolutely delicious.

We visited the Royal Oak for lunch while in the area, we ordered two cokes which tasted funny but we saw past that and was hopefully that the food was going to be better. We ordered a jacket potato with prawn Marie and hunters chicken. The jacket was dry, and the prawns was warm. The salad it came with was awful. Dried up cucumber, a pile of cress, some grated carrot, a lettuce leaf and a slice of orange on top. Not what I would call a salad if I’m honest. Getting to the hunters chicken it was advertised to come with “chips and peas” it actually came with a handful of skinny fries, and this awful salad again. My partner cut the end and ate it, cut through the middle and noticed it was still pink, on raising it with the man behind the bar he said sorry and took it away and then brought another one out about 25mins later, by which time I had finished my food. We then was sat at the table and what we believe was the cook walked out the kitchen area, she had no chef whites on just a dirty old apron. If I had seen the cook before we wouldn’t of eaten there simple as that. So if you want under cooked chicken here’s the place to go!

As a local business group we booked the meeting room which was lovely, 24 comfy chairs, very clean and seasonally decorated, great for Christmas parties. We ordered trays of sandwiches which were very filling and tasty. Will be back in the New year for a business breakfast subject to convenient booking dates and times.
Cozy atmosphere in an old traditional pub!
