"We sat down in a restaurant area with 2 other people and our server was pleasant and friendly. She allowed us 10 minutes to look at the menu and then took our order. A party of 5 or 6 came in after us as well as some people who wanted to eat in the bar. Our main came after about 15 minutes and we were impressed at the fact we didn’t have to wait long despite the amount of customers that had arrived. The food was lovely, we both had Liver and Bacon, and at that point we considered we had picked well. Our plates took a while to clear, which was to be expected, but this is where it all fell down. We never saw our server again, much less be asked if we would like dessert. We tried to catch her eye but she never looked our way. She went to each table asking if things were okay, but it was as if we were invisible. She kept disappearing in the kitchen for 5 minutes at a time so we couldn’t even go up to her and ask. We went to the busy bar to pay our bill after 25 minutes, and despite the nice main, left feeling we would not return. A pity."

Always a great menu and beers. At times, need to book ahead. Tuesday open mike jamming sessions resumed so good for a nights entertainment.

A Lovely efficient waitress could not make up for the food some of which was served warm. Looking forward to lunch after reading the restaurants own promotion, a letdown.

We popped in here after visiting Sheffield Park on the off chance they might have a table for 6 for lunch after trying another pub which was closed). So glad they had a table here . We received a very friendly greeting from the...

Very poor food, overpriced, do not eat here. Very clever of the chef to produce chips that are burnt on the outside yet rock hard inside. There was more oil in the cod than cod. I tried to feed a bit of the beef burger to a dog that was allowed to wander over to my table. The dog wouldn’t eat it.

Passing through once more this-evening due to weather changed route. And as always a great reception. This place has always been welcoming and friendly. Tonight, I thoroughly enjoyed some bar-room banter which was first class and life being a bit of hardwork in different areas at the moment bought a smile to my face and really made me day.

We took my mother out for her birthday and the food was average. The two steaks were decent, but the chips seemed frozen and had a strange texture. The mussels were overcooked and chewy, with a flavorless sauce. When we mentioned our concerns, we only received a brief apology. The starter of crab and prawn mix on toast turned out to be crab sticks shredded, which we felt was overpriced at £8.50. It's disappointing as the restaurant is in a nice village pub, but we will not be coming back.

Quick lunchtime beer and a baguette, superb. I used to be a local here but moved away, however I was back in the area today so popped in. Such a lovely pub, fabulous warm greeting from Beryl behind the bar, and also a couple of locals I knew. Plus as all locals know, the Harvey’s Best At the oak is literally the best. My pint today was exactly that, unbeatable. Feeling a bit peckish so I ordered a prawn baguette with Marie Rose sauce. Also delightful, and I kid you not, enough prawns to feed two people! I struggled to finish it, although I did get offers of help from a couple of locals in there. The Oak has always been a great pub under Beryl’s wing, it remains the same to this day and it wa...

I’ve eaten at the Oak twice in recent times with large groups, the food being that good we decided to return there. There is always such a great choice on the specials board with a variety of meat, fish and vegetarian dishes; there’s always something to please everyone. My examples were a beef suet pie; the meat was melt in the mouth tender with a deliciously crispy pie crust and vegetables cooked to perfection. The second time I opted for the pork belly in a cider cream sauce absolutely delicious, the meat was so tender. I only wish I could cook like this! I look forward to dining here again soon and trying some of the lovely fish dishes, or doing what one friend did by having a couple of s...
