About The Royal Oak

Set in the heart of Downton, The Royal Oak is a beautifully restored countryside pub where traditional charm meets relaxed, modern comfort.

Following a full refurbishment, we’re proud to be fully open with our complete food and drinks offering now available. Inside, you’ll find cosy corners, open fires, and a welcoming bar serving perfectly kept ales, classic wines, and expertly poured Guinness. Whether you’re joining us for a leisurely lunch, a hearty Sunday roast, or simply a drink by the fire, The Royal Oak is a place to settle in and stay awhile.

Our full menu celebrates comforting pub classics alongside seasonal dishes, all served in a warm and inviting setting. Outside, our large garden provides the perfect spot for sunny afternoons, while our spacious car park makes visiting easy and convenient.

Ideally located for walkers exploring the surrounding countryside, The Royal Oak is the perfect pit stop, whether you’re dropping in for a quick refreshment or gathering with friends and family for a longer stay.

Well-behaved dogs on leads are very welcome.

We look forward to welcoming you.
