The Royal Oak

Lovely well looked after pub. It has nice little bit tired kids play area with around 8 tables. There is an adult garden aswell opposite the kids play area. Outdoor toilets which remain open most of the time are not the cleanest but will do. The pub itself is nice inside it has 3-4 seating zones in it including the bar area which serves soft drinks and alcohol. The restaurant itself has a specials board which is regularly changed, plus a lovely menu including steak which may I say was beautifully cooked. Aswell the staff were very friendly based on the fact they close sometimes in the afternoon, they said we could leave our glasses on the table outside the pub entrance and let us stay in the play area/family seating.

Totally would recommend it

Ah what a lovely place, very traditional. The pretty little hidden gardens. Scrumptious high quality ham cob delicious chips with a pint of shandy and we only went out for a quick walk, what a find. Having moved to the area just before Covid we are now starting to find some real gems. The staff were really lovely.

First time I have been here. 3 adults and 4 children. It's a really nice place looks old and original got lots of character. There is a separate garden for children and adults and adults only. Play stuff is more suitable for younger children, sandpit with toys, seesaw, 2 swings , climbing frame and playhouse.
More importantly the beer was good 3 real ales which were well kept.
Plenty of choice of other drinks.
No complaints from me.
I'd like to go back to have food there.

Lovely food and the staff were very friendly. The prices have gone up so a little more expensive every time we visit. The bar prices are more London than Buxton.

Here for regular beer festival. One of the best real ale pubs in the area. Great beer, great food, as friendly as they come.
If you haven't been before you need to try it

Very friendly pub. Went to a private party there with Crown Green Bowling friends from Little Eaton and Belper Meadows. Really good evening.

We went for the brilliant Ockash Trust quiz, raising funds for local children. Reasonable prices and good range of beers.

Quaint pub with lots of small rooms to eat and drink inside. One of the rooms can be used for functions such as discos or weddings. There is also a seating area outside for drinking and eating but this I feel is part of the carpark. Prices for food and drinks are reasonable and food is delivered quickly. The toilets are, however, outside again near the carpark which is bad in cold wet weather. Staff are nice and friendly. The venue is worth a visit
