Royal Oak — Restaurant in Wales

We went here as a group on a Tuesday night and we were delighted to see and hear and local folk group playing and singing folk songs. It made the experience completely different to most pubs I've been too.

Order at the bar and give them your table number... and food comes quite quickly... within 20 minutes at the most. There are lots of serving people going around, checking tables and delivering food. So service is really good.

I had the seafood chowder with a baguette, and it had loads of seafood (as you would expect). It was tasty and well worth the money. Looking at the pork chop.. I got food envy, so that's probably well worth ordering as well.

I passed on dessert as the chowder filles me up, but the ones I saw looked pretty nice.

They serve food until 9pm, so it's good if you get to town late.

Well worth a visit... especially on a Tuesday night.

Why only 4 stars? The food was good, but not great. A chowder normally has potatoes to thicken up the sauce and my seafood chowder was basically fish, a little celery, one pea and a white wine tarragon sauce. After the visit (and initial review) my friend said the pork chops was OK,...

Went here on a Sunday evening for dinner. We chose it because 1. we've not been here for food before and 2. the reviews looked really good. I must say I was very disappointed. We ordered a burger and chips, belly pork with fenel and shallots, and roasted veg and polenta bake. Every dish had something bad about it. The chips were tepid, the veg bake had limp undercooked cauliflower, and for a reasonably large piece of belly pork, there was hardly any meat on it. I know that belly pork has layers of meat and fat, but there was barely 2 mouthfuls of meat, 90% of the pork was fat! The pile of fat I left was bigger than the pile of mashed potato on my plate! When I told the waitress, her response was "Oh, I'll tell the chef". She didn't come back with any response after she'd taken the plate away. No offer of a refund or apology, nothing. I can't believe that the chef would cook or serve such a poor piece of meat. We definitely won't be going there again for food and won't be reccomending it to...

Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this business to this particular platform..

We arranged to meet friends here and accordingly pre booked a table for a meal here..

On arrival, the staff were very welcoming and we were directed to our table, but as the weather was so nice, we asked if we could possibly eat outside.. This was not a problem..

As for the ambience ?, out the back is a large outside area, parr of which is under cover .. It is a lovely space to sit and chat with a sea view, and on our day of visiting, there was Dj playing reggae style music, then other styles until around 7pm..

The cusine was excellent. It wasn't like pub grub that one may usually expect in such a business . No, the cusine was very tasty and looked great as well..

So if you're in the area and want an excellent pub to enjoy quality cusine and various craft beers( other drinks also available as would be expected here..), I highly recommend this business ( pub), too this...
