The Royal Oak - Pub in Oxfordshire
High Street, Ramsden, Chipping Norton, OX7 3AU, Oxfordshire
England,
United Kingdom









This lovely old pub sits in the heart of the village. Walkers, locals with their dogs and lovers of good food will be delighted to find its atmosphere unchanged in spite of much refurbishment, bringing it up to date without losing any history. It's still a warm, soulful place with crackling log fires, well-trained staff, local ales and a seasonal menu of classics. Food is taken very seriously, there is a private dining room to book and regular supper clubs. The restaurant has a more contemporary feel and from here an extension has full length windows opening on to the garden. Lovely to sit out here, pint in hand, wondering what to eat. Look out for live music events, join a 'Step into the Cotswolds' walk from the door or slump in a cosy armchair with a newspaper. It's a relaxed place.
