Royal Oak, Great Ayton — Restaurant in England

The Royal Oak is an attractive hotel and pub overlooking the green in the centre of the lovely village of Great Ayton. Originally a Coaching Inn it has all the historic old beams and decor you would expect and has a cosy charm. It also fits the bill as a modern day hotel and our double room was spacious and comfortable, and the en-suite is modern, nicely fitted out, and includes good quality toiletries and big, thick, fluffy towels.||Breakfast is simple in terms of choice, which suited us perfectly, and after juice and grapefruit segments we enjoyed a substantial Full English which was top class in every respect. ||I have three simple requirements of a cooked breakfast, ie top quality ingredients; perfectly cooked and nicely presented - and that’s what you get here. The sausage and thick cut bacon were really good, and top marks must go to the black pudding which is as tasty as you could get. Everything else was spot on and when you consider that non-guests can have this for just over £12 it represents great value.||Service was also very good, as it has been throughout our short stay, and we look forward to a...

Me, and my family popped in for tea, just on spec on 15/6/22..it was busy with a lovely atmosphere, we were welcomed warmly by the staff., a table was quickly found for us in the restaurant at the back, which was lovely and slightly quieter than at the front, although we have sat there also at times and is really lovely.

Well worth the £14.99 price... A perfect meal, washed down with a cold pint of Amstel Beer in a relaxed and...

Upon fishing a lovely walk around Roseberry Topping, me and my 3 sisters were on the hunt for a good meal to refuel before driving the hour journey back home. A quick Google search lead us a few minutes down the road to this little gem of a place. First impressions were that it was a very welcoming cosy and friendly place very traditional, the staff were amazing, very accommodating and thankfully didn't mind we were a wee bit muddy from the walk 🙏 hot drinks brought straight out to us. We weren't waiting very long before our breakfasts were brought out , and they were delicious very good quality ingredients and you could tell everything was cooked fresh and was full of flavour, I must give a big shout out to the black pudding it was the best I've had ( tasted and looked home made) we were all very impressed and cleaned our plates leaving feeling very full and satisfied, if I was in the area again I would 100% be...
