Difficult to assess really, seems like a pub trying to reinvent itself as a bar/restaurant, and failing miserably. There were two Adnams pumps but didn’t feel I could trust them so had a Kronenbourg . The menu included oysters, calamari fritti, wild boar sausages, getting the idea? Good background music but clearly too loud for the size of the place and number of clientele - only a handful at 5pm on a Saturday. Finally, for a place looking to go upmarket the gents toilets were a disgrace.

I haven't been to the Oak for over a year and what used to be a well cared for pub; looked shabby and in need of some TLC. The tables need a varnish and the ladies toilet could do with tarting up....its a shame! It was my favourite pub in Clapham and at the moment, there are newer pubs in the vicinity that is vying for the Oak's clientele, so it should take note! Food and wine up to standard though.

By far the best pub in the area, The Guinness is great, the staff are really good; it's got a great atmosphere. Perhaps the TV could spend more time off.

On Sunday's it's rammed with people eating their Sunday roast which smells fantastic, but isn't great if you just want a few beers.

A great pub though.

Nice pub, never horrifically packed like other pubs in the area.

If you are looking to watch football however, just be aware that they don't play the commentary and to compound your misery, they may only show half a game! Whilst we were there last Saturday the tv was switched over at half time to rugby which had 2 minutes to go of their first half. Bemused, we asked the staff if they were going to show the football or the rugby's second half. Answer was - rugby. Apparently some lads had booked a table to watch the rugby although oddly were only bothered about the second half.

On a positive note, I guess the above must make pleasant reading for rugby fans!

Nice pub and nice bar staff humoured a first visit of the day for me and a happy colleague...

And yes beer was flat, ale has run out, so this was the let down. Would re-visit and reserve judgement for a second time...
