The Royal Oak - Carta

We found the staff really friendly the food was off high quality and was priced reasonably would recommend it a place for a meal if you are in the area.

After work dinner. Great attentive service, perfectly cooked king prawns , gouda and bacon doughnuts, sole and lamb mint sausages. Great food, great atmosphere and definitely recommend .

Dropped in here today for a quick lunch. Absolute delight. The staff were attentive, effective and efficient. The food was simple, hearty and served with a smile. And to cap it all, the prices were very reasonable. Would I go back 100 Ver carta

My friends and I decided to have Christmas dinner here and we are so pleased we did. From start to finish the experience was very positive. Excellent and attentive waiting staff who couldn’t do enough for us and Brendan, the chef cooked up one of the best Christmas meals I’ve had in a long time. Many thanks for a great night out

This rather unassuming pub was a 'chance find ' for us. We were travelling west on the nearby A31 and decided to pop in to Bere Regis for lunch. Google search directed us to another pub which was closed, but we passed the Royal Oak on our way there. They were able to accommodate us as 'walk ins ' and we enjoyed a very tasty and nicely cooked lunch wild boar faggots were on the menu!

What a little hidden gem. Caitlin behind the bar, what a lovely welcoming lady so friendly and has customer service off to a tee !! We were just on way back from taking the dog to the beach. Saw the friendly welcoming signs for the Royal Oak. Checked if dogs could come into the bar area. Not only could they come in they had doggy ice cream on offer too.!! Food was lovely, fresh and piping hot. Thanks chef ! Ver carta

We stopped yesterday on our way home from Monkey World. There was 9 of us (ranging from 12 to 76) we weren't overly hopeful of a table, but the lady behind the bar soon rearranged a couple of tables made us feel very welcome. An amazing selection on the menu the food was absolutely delicious, the service impeccable the atmosphere fantastic. I would highly recommend The Royal Oak will definitely return if back in the area.

My husband I were on holiday locally so booked to eat here, as it said dog friendly we have 2 retrievers. It is very dog friendly. The locals at the bar the waiter were very keen on dogs. Treats water were supplied. The waiter, Brendan, was fantastic. Very affable, knowledgeable, helpful accomodating. The bar was full of very friendly folk the music played was excellent not too loud! Now the food-we both went for fish for starters main. My husband had whitebait I had garlic prawns. Nicely presented, hot very tasty. We both had Lemon Sole for mains which was cooked to prerfection absolutely delicious. In fact we both thought it was probably one of the best meals out that we had ever had. High...

Staying in Bere Regis this is the only choice for dining out so we booked for the two nights of our visit a Friday and Saturday. The Oak is the first thing you see as you turn in to the village main street and a convenient walk from anywhere in the village. Both nights were quite busy early but clear by 9. A pleasant dining area with around 30 setting staff were mostly young part timers in need of training but friendly and willing to help. Food is average but uninspiring first night 's shared sauteed mushroom starter was tasty. King prawn curry had more a spicy soup than a sauce and very few other ingredients. Cielo Merlot was Ok had that both nights. Saturday 's meal followed a busy day wit... Ver carta
