Tiger prawns, must be huge in serving but we end up with 5 small shrimp. Shrimp and prawns are 2 different sized species but here in UK, prawn is the same as shrimp. In US and everywhere else we've been to, prawns are big in size while shrimp is small when being a served. The flavoring was good but it's not filling even for starter. The roasted duck was actually very good. Main course where the honey roasted gammon and chilli with rice. The former, when it was served, it was just honey glazed ham that you can get at the grocery store when it comes to the taste. The latter was also just ok. The night was kind of lackluster in dining flavor experience, even the starters couldn't save the night. They have outside seating but parking is very scarce. They have face towels in the restroom.

They are proud of their rocks, they don't charge to see them, and the kids can run among 'em.

We stayed for one night and was very impressed with the room. It was large, clean, and modern. The entrance was from the car park in the back of the pub that allowed for easy access. Though I worried the other pub patrons would be noisy, everything was very quiet. All the amenities I could have wanted were available including fresh towels, tea with a kettle, and a hair drier. The pub it self is very pretty and friendly. We enjoyed a delicious dinner of curry and scampi. The breakfast was even better with a small continental buffet with a menu to order a variety of traditional breakfasts. The key qualities that made this experience so lovely were the friendly staff and the cleanliness of the room.

As veggie lovers however we found that a small dish between four wasn't nearly enough. Some confusion around timing of coffees and desserts but despite this the desserts were awesome! and the liqueur coffee was lovely. Also the house white wine was really good and none of that aftertaste you can get from cheap house wines. All in all a pleasant place- quiet even tho it was packed as there was no 'muzak' blaring in the background and no games machines in sight- the tables were far enough apart from each other that we felt we had a degree of privacy. The staff were friendly and attentive- if a little confused sometimes lol I will definitely be going back!!

The Royal Oak is the essence of what a rural pub needs to be to survive these days. Only a mile or so off the A36 but in a beautiful old village. I heartily recommend, but do book early as this is a place sure to be popular with cyclists, tourists, locals and passing trade.

Amazing menu - if I could write a menu packed just with the top pub food I love, this would be it. We only just managed to choose before we were planning a return visit. We both ordered the pie of the day (chicken & bacon) having checked it had a crust base not just a measly topping on a casserole. Staff are friendly and know the dishes. It's a 'slow food' place but we didn't have a long wait for food. PIETASTIC! and excellent value at £12.50 each. If you enjoy good food - do not drive past!!!

WOW!! I hadn't been in here for a few years despite living nearby, but I called in for Sunday lunch…read morea few weeks ago after my dear mum said it had changed hands and things were on the up. I have to say the food was superb, at the time I think i even said it was the best sunday lunch i had ever had, I think I was a little taken a back by the quality of the food on offer. They have successfully managed to retain some of the old charm and proper pub feel, while making the dining a cosy, friendly experience that is all about locally produced food. The lamb had already sold out (turn up early or book on the phone if you don't want to miss out) so the three of us had duck, chicken and beef. Each dish was cooked pretty much to perfection and the home made yorkshire puddings were great. Sunday lunch just how it should be! This pub focusses on local, fresh produce all of which is prepared on site and served in simple, traditional dishes. The menu is short, but in my opinion that is the way it should be, as it means each dish excels. It is always so disheartening to find a pub that has 30 dishes on the menu as you can almost guarantee each one will be mediocre. Not the case with this pub. To top it all off the ales are well kept, the Bowmans "swift one" was a very refreshing pint and anything on tap from Hopback is a safe bet. All in all this pub comes very highly recommended, great food, nice atmosphere, good beers and friendly service, what more could you want?!

When we arrived we were asked if we had reservations and I can see why. The restaurant is very small. Although we didn't have reservations we didn't have a problem and were seated. There is a front room with a small bar and another room in the rear. There is also seating outside for nice days. We sat in the room in the back. Service was excellent here and so was the food. We let our waitress know that we were catching a flight in Stansted and she helped us avoid the traffic around Stonehenge. She was so helpful she actually wrote out turn by turn directions for us. If you're in the area definitely stop by. So glad we came here instead of eating at the cafeteria at Stonehenge.
