Mother’s Day is nearly here, our new Spring Menu is ready, and we have plenty coming up for families this month.
From traditional Sunday roasts and a free glass of bubbles for Mum, to colouring cards and crayons for the children, we are making sure everyone feels welcome around the table. Add in St Patrick’s Day, our popular quiz night, and Easter just around the corner, and there is plenty of reason to plan a visit.
Join us on Sunday 15 March to celebrate Mother’s Day at The Royal Oak, and be sure to book early as it is always a popular occasion. Treat Mum to a proper Royal Oak welcome with a relaxed family meal and the traditional Sunday roasts everyone comes for.
Every Mum dining with us will receive a complimentary glass of bubbles, and for families joining us with children we will have Mother’s Day colouring cards and crayons at the table to keep little ones happily occupied. With thoughtful table touches, a warm village pub atmosphere, and a menu full of roasts and seasonal favourites from our kitchen, it is the perfect way to spend the day together.
New Spring Menu, now serving
Our new Spring Menu celebrates the flavours of the season with a mix of comforting pub favourites and fresh, seasonal dishes created by our Head Chef Sebastian and the kitchen team. Alongside traditional classics and locally sourced ingredients, the menu also features our popular “Around the World” section, bringing a little international inspiration to the table with dishes influenced by flavours from across the globe. It is a menu designed to offer something for everyone, whether you are visiting for a relaxed lunch, an evening meal with friends, or a family get together. Families are always welcome at The Royal Oak, and our children’s menu offers a great choice of smaller plates and favourites for younger diners, making it easy for everyone to enjoy a meal together. Come along and sample what's new this season.

Just had another fabulous meal at the Royal Oak at North Gorley. I mentioned when booking it was for my son's birthday and when we got there there was a lovely happy birthday sign over our table. Wonderful service and fantastic food. They made him feel really special. Thank you Royal Oak.
