The Royal Oak is a two-storey public house with separate barn area, the business has two distinct trading areas with a quality traditional bar & separate area for dining. The open plan layout is very well-presented and lends itself to two trading rooms conveniently serviced by one bar servery. The lounge bar comfortably sits 20 guests and is a great space to enjoy a relaxing drink and a catch up with friends. The dining room has a brighter and more modern feel with a mixture of eclectic loose seating for 30 covers, and large double doors leading onto the well-kept patio. Previously this area has also been used for private functions, family celebrations and live entertainment which has a good local following. The commercial kitchen is easily accessed and well-equipped and is more than capable of providing a quality food offering that is considered essential for this business. To the front of the pub is a well-kept with an area used for picnic tables and planted pots directly outside, allowing customers to enjoy a drink and watch the world go by. This space has massive scope for development by introducing more seating to allow customers to enjoy al a carte dining or a relaxing drink during the summer months.
It was our second trip to the Royal Oak for a Sunday roast and I’ll definitely be returning for a third visit. The Vegan roast is huge, I had mushroom wellington this time which was delicious. My meat eating partner enjoyed his and said the beef was great. I loved the Vegan Biscoff cheesecake for dessert. I never usually have dessert because it’s normally a cop out like sorbet for Vegans! The people that run the place are also lovely and make an effort to chat to you. Dog friendly as well, which is a bonus.
Cosy pub with friendly atmosphere, lovely Christmasy decoration and that vegan breakfast! sooo yummy and filling. Visited with friend and our dogs one rainy morning and had lovely time, it was so warm inside! . Must go back to try more food. Top Pub!
What to say ? You are welcomed as if you were local (we're from France) by lovely people who serve good homemade meals. We come to regret not having a place like this near us. Thank you once again for the welcome and the good food (breakfast and meals)
LOVE THIS PUB! Really nice service and didn’t expect the fruit salad which came with the scampi & chips were this good! They were generous offering more prawns when knowing we are sharing a main. The cheesecake was good too.
Had the most amazing Sunday Lunch at The Royal Oak in Dormansland, a lovely little villiage in Sussex So much choice for us and the kids, owners are vegan and such great hosts. All their desserts were vegan, they even have Mr Whippy ice cream for the kids. We found them on the Happy Cow app. So glad we went, it was my son’s birthday too and they made such a fuss of him. If you’re ever near do pop in, you won’t be disappointed!
