The Royal Oak
The Royal Oak at Broadwas provides great quality food for reasonable prices.
There is a delicious carvery provided daily from 12 until 2pm and 5:30pm until 8pm. This includes three meats (Pork, Turkey and Beef) and a range of 12-14 different vegetables including our homemade garlic potatoes, sage and onion stuffing and cauliflower cheese. Weekday prices are £12.95 and on the weekends £12.95/£14.95.
If the carvery doesn’t take your fancy, then there is an extensive a la carte menu with lots of pub classics and steaks to choose from. At lunchtime, there is a choice of baguettes and salads. We also have a senior 2-course lunch deal for £12.95, which includes a main and a pudding (not available in December).
There is also a range of drinks on offer from soft drinks to traditional bitters, lagers, ciders and wines. The service is impeccable. You will be welcomed by a group of happy faces. We can cater for small and larger parties. Dogs are welcome in the outside areas and we have a large outdoor area including a children’s play area.
