New to the village, and with our son and daughter in law visiting for the first time, we decided to visit the local pub for a Sunday lunch. When booking (which I absolutely advise as all tables were full) I asked if they could cater for me as I am a coeliac. After receiving a solid confirmation from Rachel the landlady I was reassured and booked.
We were looked after superbly! The food was all gluten free, even the Yorkshire puddings! (Delicious.)
There was a very generous amount of such tender meat, and at least 7 - yes, 7! - types of vegetables. Very plentiful and tasty. Excellent cookery.
We were too full for pudding, but I would have forced a crème brûlée down, only it was off the menu. Personally, I would have liked the food to be hotter, but it was hot enough for most people I guess, as everyone else was perfectly happy with it.
All the staff we came into contact with were extremely polite, friendly, and welcoming.
Service was speedy and efficient.
We all went away very happy.
I highly recommend this pub and will definitely return.

This has to be the best pub I've ever been to in my life. The manager Rachel, the chef & owner Jake and all the staff went over and above to ensure our Sunday dinner for my father in law's birthday treat happened, despite us being delayed. The level of service is second to none, so caring and considerate towards my elderly father in law who was struggling that day. I can honestly say this is the best pub I've ever been to. Thank you so much to all the staff highly recommended excellent THANK YOU ?

Were do I start the staff never have I been anywhere were the staff are so good and pleasant and the atmosphere is brilliant they have beautiful pub inside and outside there is a huge under cover area with TVs heaters and also a serving window for if you want to sit outside in any weather and then a beautiful beer garden for the summer and then the food is second to none and the Sunday dinners are the best I've tasted and now I go for Sunday dinner when ever me and the wife get chance. And it's all set in a beautiful and friendly village of longbenigton. So if you get the chance to go then do so and the landlord Jake and the manager Rachel will be happy to greet you.And well done to all at the royal oak. X

Amazing! The food was great value and delicious, better than many restaurants, beautifully presented. My husband's stake was sublime. The atmosphere and decor are warm and cosy. The staff is chill and very attentive. We already said we'll have to visit again.

We had a most delicious Sunday lunch here, our hostess was most welcoming and the young staff couldn't have been more attentive. We were served quickly, without being rushed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Royal Oak ?

We visited for a drink - unfortunately dogs aren't allowed inside but there is a covered outdoor area with heaters.
