| A good pub, went there after watching Charlton. There were four beers on (Abbot, Theakstons XB, Doom Bar, Courage) and the two I had were well kept. The staff were friendly and polite, and there is a decent beer garden in the back which the kids enjoyed. The bar I was in could do with being refreshed. Someone else mentioned it feels a bit like a village hall and I know what they mean, but that shouldn't put people off. leeborders - 26 Sep 2011 13:24 |
| Have just read the previous review, and happened to be in the pub on that night. The gentleman was very rude to other customers and also quite drunk. He was was not even drinking real ale, he was drinking guinness and red wine. The manager, was very tolerant and polite to him, however he insisted on parading around everyone and when some other people complained about him he was asked to leave. I think his comments may be a bit bitter, if you excuse the pun, as the Oak is a well known real ale house whose beers are exemplary and have many rave reviews. janlbo - 14 Jan 2011 12:50 |
| I witnessed staff surreptitiously serving customers beer slops from the overflow tray - an unhygienic practice. When I very politely mentioned this the bar manager was rude and aggressive. This place is a disgrace - they need to learn some better customer service. davros63 - 7 Dec 2010 15:07 |
| Great pub, usually pop in here on the way to the Valley, good ales, service and never any hassle in here, not to far from the ground 20-25 min walk. carterse9 - 4 Jan 2010 17:12 |
| Two room pub. That is, two distinct bars with separate entrances. Four beers on: Directors, Best, Doom Bar and Coaster. There's a front courtyard and a decent rear back garden. It's a well kept place, refurbished in the last year or so, but it lacks character. The side bar is a featureless extension of sorts. Feels a bit like a school gym or village hall or something. The layout of the tables and chairs in neat rows didn't help the feel of lack of character and imagination. The beer was served in good condition. There is a folk club every Tuesday. Food is served lunchtimes until 3.00. Sunday lunch is advertised at £4.95. Bargain! An OK place which I wouldn't mind drinking in, but would rather push on for somewhere more interesting.
