    Pre booked table was ready on time, it was only on arrival that we were informed our table was only available for 1.5 hours! It turns out, despite us being very quick to order both drinks and meal together, that was not enough time to enjoy a leisurely Sunday lunch.. Service was friendly and efficient and delivery of drinks and meal did not take long but despite this we were almost ushered out of the restaurant. We were reminded several times our table was booked 1.5 hrs after we sat down and offered another table if we wished to remain. We were wondering why the open table could not be used for the next diners and why we had to rush away. The food was cooked really well although will ask for gravy in a jug next time as the plate was swimming in the gravy. I know some people like their roast dinners like this but it's not everyone's taste. Overall I think I would go back.

    Food was tasty, the higher end of pub food. Service was good, staff were friendly and attentive, could have been slightly quicker. We were there over lunch and the place was busy with a nice atmosphere. The noise level increased as it got busier but wasn't overwhelming. Overall a nice lunch! Thank you.

    Inside is completely different to how it appears outside (to me at least). Nice interior, ambiance. Good food. Will visit again for sure.

    Was great but discovered they don’t accept cash payment card only transactions which I strongly don’t agree with and after many visits will now not be booking again. Cash is legal tender and should be accepted

    Hi robin, Apologies that our method of payment dosent work for you, there are many reasons why we dont take cash anymore. But i do understand your frustration. Team Angel Oak

    We had the Sunday roast, the food was fresh and full of taste. The only thing we didn't like was the gravy pre poured onto the meal and not in a boat to do ourselves. The staff were excellent, attentive and pleasant whilst not being overbearing. Pricewise the meal reasonably priced and we would definitely visit again.
    The Angel OakResponded on 27 August 2024
    Hi shaun, thanks for the lovely feedback, we are looking into gravy boats (we just dont have any big enough at the moment) so should be ready for our new menu launch next week! Thank you again Team Angel Oak

    Began our evening with drinks outside which was very enjoyable, always a buzzy atmosphere at this pub. We moved inside to eat in the restaurant, unfortunately the food was disappointing on this occasion. The burgers were overcooked and dry and the fish and chips was mainly batter. We had Prosecco which was a special price of £20 a bottle (on Fridays) which is amazing value. We also had the Gavi which was extremely good.
    The Angel OakResponded on 25 August 2024
    Hi Deborah, Thank you for the feedback on the food, i have passed this onto out head chef - it sincerely helps to have constructive feedback delivered to us in such a otherwise lovely review for which i thank you again. We hope to welcome you again soon, and hopefully you will give our food another shot! Team Angel Oak

    This not a restaurant. No table service. There appears to be a dining area. If we sat there, they advised us to go to the bartender to order.
    The Angel OakResponded on 24 August 2024
    Hi George, It appears we may have got our wires crossed, we do 100% do table service in the restaurant area - if you are in the garden or bar area service is from the bar. Apologies for any confusion! Team Angel Oak

    We come to the Angel Oak for family gatherings, friend meet ups and with the kids for the occasional meal. It’s always great and the food is excellent-good choices for all the family (pre-teen kids and adults in our case). The front of the pub is louder with more of that atmosphere and the back and garden are calmer and more quiet. There is something for all. It’s a great pub to have locally

    Hi Mahmuda, thank you for your lovely words! It really does make a difference to us hearing that you like visiting. We hope to welcome you again soon. Team Angel Oak
