    Fantastic local pub with a beautiful garden. Feels very safe during COVID, with hand sanitisers…read moreplaces throughout, comfortable distances between tables, and a one-way system.

    This happened to be my first pub on my first trip to the UK. The location, scenery, ambiance is…read moresecond to none. It is what I expected my first, "Local" pub experience to be. The local beers were room temperature as was to be expected. Being an American I am very used to cold beer. The flavor of the beer was so good I almost did not notice the lack of cold...almost. I guess another feature of true local pubs is if they run out of the menu items they are out! First and second options were gone so that was disappointing. The third option was good enough. The service was outstanding in every way. If you are ever in this part of England I would suggest stopping in for a pint and stepping out back for a look over the countryside.

    Been here twice recently…read more.. First, to meet friends who live locally. The bar food is indeed very good; its a friendly place; nice big garden area - we sat outside; reasonably sized car park (though we did watch a slow motion - literally - car crash as a mini that someone had forgotten to put on the handbrake for rolled backwards into some concrete feature thing)...a bit concerned as I was parked next to it Anyway, very enjoyable and definitely to be recommended We returned a week or so later to meet other friends, it being more or less half way between us....and on our way to the Tunnel Aha...watch out for the beams, missed last time as we sat out...they are exceptionally low!!! the welcome and the food were again both very good Will return, especially as it is on our route, but maybe preferably in the summer...I think outside is a safer bet

    There are not many pubs I would go out of my way to visit but The Royal Oak at Wineham is most…read morecertainly one of them. We had the great good fortune to be camping at Blacklands farm, which is only 20 minutes walk away, so this became our "local" on the extended bank holiday royal wedding weekend. It's a real gem of a place with a picture postcard look; timber framed with white walls and tiny windows this is the classic old school English country pub come to life. Inside it has kept its traditional character with low ceilings and rustic furnishings. There is a front room which houses the bar (no visible hand pumps threw me at first before I realised it all comes straight from the cask) and another small room with three tables out back which is great for a romantic dinner of an evening. There is also another room in an original "annexe" to the main building which is opened for diners during busy periods; this might be a good choice if you are with children. Alternatively on fine days, such as those we have had this past weekend, there is no better place to be than the lovely garden out front. We were camping with our old pals the Yeoman's, who had their delightful two year old Aoife in tow. She had a ball exploring the garden and getting up close and friendly with the various breeds of dogs, and their owners, who were visiting on a Saturday lunchtime. I do believe a very good time was had by all. The beer, as I said, is poured straight from the cask and is well kept and in tip top condition. Nothing much out of the ordinary in the choice of Dark Star Hophead and Harveys Best and Knots of May which were being served on our visits but hey, they were drinking very well indeed in the spring time sun and we kept coming back for more. We ate here on the Friday evening and had a great meal. I had the Catalonian inspired fish stew with chorizo and fennel which came with crusty bread and a garlic rouille; a big bowlful and very tasty indeed. B had the confit duck on a bed of champ with a garnish of rocket. Despite being under seasoned, she scoffed the lot in quick time and declared herself more than satisfied with her supper. After a morning spent walking we returned here on the Saturday to try out the Ploughman Boards. After a few miles with a two year old on the back I was pretty hungry so we decided to go for a Board each and that was a pretty good call to make because 45 minutes later there was not a crumb to be had. All of the Boards were extremely fine and came with a bit hunk of crusty bread, more butter than could possibly be good for you, some rustic coleslaw, home-made chutney, picked onion, salad and a choice of rare roast beef, cheese, ham, scotch egg or smoked salmon. If you looked hard as you entered the pub there was a note pinned up indicating where they were sourcing most of this local produce which was a nice touch. The punters are a mix of campers from down the road at Blacklands, and the very discrete mobile home site next door, who sit alongside a motley crew of locals. Service comes with a smile and the owner Michael is a lovely fella who offered up great advice and some wonderful hospitality. This is a special pub in a fantastic location and I am already dreaming of a return visit.
