Royal oak

Bed and Breakfast

Weve visited here a few times with our dog and we've always had a warm welcome, also eaten here a few times and the foods always been very good.

Good beer, great food & pleasant staff.

We stayed here on a short break the day after our wedding. Very good breakfast, very friendly staff, gentleman working the bar bought us a round of drinks when he found out we where just married.

Went here mainly because it was identified as child friendly and had decent enough reviews. Sad to say I thought the food was poor, the beer selection was poor, the area around the open fire smelled funny and was in need of a damn good clean (there was an old dishcloth and an empty cigarette packet in the fireplace itself). Avoid!

Friendly staff great food and live music. Brilliant!

Unfortunately this lovely village pub is ruined by the rude and miserable landlady who prefers to spend her time chatting with her friends at the bar rather than tending to the needs of her customers. I live overseas and on a flying visit I wanted to treat my family to a meal out. Upon arrival at the pub the frosty attitude made it clear that we were not really welcome. Children are obviously not something the landlady wants in her pub. The whole experience made us all feel very uncomfortable and we ate our meals and left. I felt extremely disappointed that what was supposed to have been a lovely evening meal with my family was in fact an utter disaster. Sadly I would not recommend this pub to anyone under its current tenants and it will be a long time before I and my family return.

Beautiful cosy pub, fantastic food, open wood burning fire and lovely staff make you feel warm and welcome.

Guiness was flat & Sunday roast was luke warm and the beef was chewy, staff said they were too busy to re-heat or refund. Won’t be going back.

Home made food (none of that cube potato malarkey), served fast and reasonably priced. Quite attentive staff which is not entirely unlike typical for a pub. Local beers and nations favourites on tap.

Food was lovely when it came took a little while even though we were onky ones in the pub the coke tasted like water with a drop of coke in but I lived with it would visit again though lovely little family friendly pub.

Absolutely brilliant food! Very friendly staff too! I had the Royal Oak burger which was beautiful and my girlfriend had the Not fish and chips which was equally as good!

Great place and friendly staff. Food was brilliant only slight negative was the limited choice of wine. This won't stop us from going back as everything else was so good.

I had dinner here with my wife and two young boys. Paid £56 for a mediocre meal after being told that my first two preferences on the menu weren't available. A glass of lemonade was £3… and they tried to charge extra for the boy's desserts despite them being included in the meal deal. It was quickly rectified though. Table service was slow beyond belief. Wouldn't recommend.

Nice pub. Very pleasant staff. Pleasant night.

The Royal Oak is a well run pub, with excellent beer and food, and a comfortable ambience. Worth seeking out, it has a large car park — out of season the car park seems busier than the pub itself, but you'll always get a warm welcome.

The best pub grub we found in our week staying in Lowick. The staff were very welcoming and there were board games available for the kids to play with while we waited for the food. The only negative thing is there was some confusion with the dessert order which then took quite a while to arrive. Other than that, I'd thoroughly recommend this pub for food — especially The Royal Oak Burger.

Great sunday roast and consistently good, hence I come every week. Open log fire over the colder months and never too busy which is good a real gem.

Good food but a bit pricey. Bread was poor quality. Friendly staff.

Great good and service. Welcome stop off from a cycling trip.

Stayed at Royal Oak for 2 nights. The room was fantastic and the food was best pub type food we have had. Price was very reasonable Anna made us and our two dogs feel very welcome. It’s a good base for exploring the lakes and for walking. Highly recommended. Peter and Sinead.

Really great food, lovely staff can't wait to go back.

Excellent meal, huge portions! Extremely friendly service. Highly recommended.

Stayed for 1 night prior to cycling trip into the lakes. Extremely friendly and helpful staff, very good food and good choice of real ales. Comfortable room and the Kendal mint cake left on the pillow came in very handy.

We booked to go for a family meal to celebrate my little girls 5th birthday, it was a last minute booking only an hour before we went. When we got there there were even pink balloons decorating the table! My little girl was made to feel like a princess when they played happy birthday for her when they brought our cake out. There were 6 of us in the party along with 3 children, all of us found the food and the service fabulous and will definately be returning soon thank you Royal Oak.
