About Us

Nestled in the historic village of South Cerney – founded in 999 AD and steeped in timeless charm – The Royal Oak has stood proudly since the 18th century, serving as a beloved gathering place for locals and travellers alike. Today, it enters an exciting new chapter, blending tradition with elevated hospitality. 

We proudly serve locally sourced, seasonal dishes made with love and attention, accompanied by fine local ales, carefully selected wines, premium spirits, and expertly crafted cocktails. Whether you’re here for a leisurely lunch, a celebratory dinner, or simply to enjoy bar snacks with a drink by the fire, our focus is always on quality and warm, genuine service. 

With refreshed interiors, upgraded outdoor spaces, and a vibrant calendar of live music, events, and themed evenings, The Royal Oak is your destination for great food, great company, and memorable moments all year round.
