The Royal Oak - Carta

It's like walking into a dog kennel. Wanted to eat but turned straight round and walked out. If you can put up with the barking and wet dog stench, I'm sure you'll enjoy your meal but not for us anymore.

Excellent food. Great service. Value for money. Only complaint would be that it be nice to have more than 1 vegan option for Starter. And main. And some vegan dessert. But one of the best pubs my family been too…

Me and my lass visited here over the weekend and had a lovely evening meal after been recommended to us. The staff are very friendly and made you feel welcome. The food was beautiful and would recommend to anyone. Ver carta

The lambs liver was awful. I think it was beef liver or a very old ram. It was so tough the knife wouldn't go through it. It was sent back and we didn't pay for it but it spoiled a normally lovely lunch. Another diner sent theirs back too . We won't be back .

Visited many times, but today very disappointed, I had the lamb dinner, the meat was very fatty and not much flavour, my husband had the Stilton pie, neither was worth the price we paid, we then were asked if we would like desserts, after waiting 15 mins for someone to take our order, we left .

I have been coming to this pub for years and sending many others this way, for one reason, the Beef and Stilton Pie. This was an exceptional stew style pie with puff pastry. Unfortunately they have changed this dish to a small shortcrust pie and coupled with an excessive number of chips to fill the plate. To be honest you’d now be better off going to M&S for your pie needs. A real shame! Ver carta

We had booked a nights camping and reserved a table at the pub for dinner. We were absolutely delighted from start to finish. Firstly the staff are so warm and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. The pub is cosy and comfortable. For our meal we had the fish tacos to start and for main the Greek sharing board. It was delicious and sampled a few of the local beers to finish off. Already booked another couple of nights away again. This could easily be our new favourite place to go. Would highly recommend

We visited for a family lunch and were not disappointed. The pub was busy but staff were attentive and welcoming as soon as we arrived. Tables are quite close together so there is not loads of room but we were still comfortable. Our meals were all lovely, myself and my husband would highly recommend one of their pies. I did have an unwanted garlic clove in my pie but a glass of wine was removed from our bill which wasn’t request or expected but very much appreciated. We couldn’t fit puddings in the the banoffee delivered to the table beside us looked delicious. We will definitely return if we are back in the area

An absolute gem in the peaks, lovely location beautiful pub, great staff. We've had the Royal Oak as a firm favourite for years now, needless to say when they took the bold move to change the ledgenry steak and Stilton pie I was a tad concerned. No need the change whilst very different and a bit smaller was definitely a change for the good, short crust pastry buttery that melts stuffed with tender beef and some Stilton, proper home cooked chips greens and a boat of proper gravy. The other half had the lamb duo which he w Said was great tasty lamb great feta and olives. Whether out for a drive or a walk can't recommend the Royal Oak enough Ver carta
