| The Royal Oak has changed little over the last 14 or 15 years since Ray took over. Still serving good condition regular real ales and guest beer(s). The clientelle are generally still your local Earlsdon residents rather than the pub crawling, pre-clubbing youths and drunkards that are taking over the area these days.

| The smoking ban seems to be having a serious effect on the numbers. It is noted that you can still smoke in the "garden" a small collection of dying houseplants and the largest gravel ashtray in the world. We await the new marketing masterplan with anticipation and trepitation. anonymous - 16 Sep 2007 21:14 |
| i cannot believe all these negative comments about this pub,i have recently experienced great service and great beer. i can understand some of the gripes, changing barrels at peak times and the clean ashtray fetish can be annoying but overall has to be an above average pub. I am surprised that the owner has not risen to these negative inputs - maybe a comment or 2 in the myspace arena, after all he is the land lord of the oak! Think I might try a search! to see the response if any. anonymous - 27 May 2007 18:11 |
| This pub seems to get a regular shoeing from other contributors but on my visit on a pub crawl round Coventry on 24/2 I thought the beer was good and the landlord is a friendly bloke. Worth a visit. pubinspector - 25 Feb 2007 21:48 |
| Nothings changed apart from the wall paper! Same chattering class customers smoking like chimneys.Beer is just as average as before.Still, good to see Ray rushing around emptying ashtrays -suppose he needs the exercise after his 6 month "holiday" covman2003 - 20 Feb 2007 20:30 |
