About Royal Oak Hotel

The Royal Oak Hotel in Garstang is a historic and atmospheric coaching inn with a bar, restaurant and nine comfortably appointed guest bedrooms. It dates back to at least the seventeenth century and is situated right on the cobbled market square where you can grab a table and watch the world go by. Food is served seven days a week from 12 noon through until 8pm. The surrounding Lancashire countryside has lots to offer, from the beautiful Forest of Bowland and the stunning scenery of the Lake District to a day out in Lancaster. There is plenty to discover if you decide to stay at The Royal Oak.

We were a table of 4. Very welcoming and food was good. The only downside we took our dog which attracted a little girl who wouldn't leave us alone. Her mum wasn't much use and at one point the little girl was sitting at our table and her mum had to get her under the table. Not acceptable. She spoiled whst was a good meal.

We visited in July 2026 and had a lovely meal at the Royal Oak and front of house service was excellent too. Many thanks to the Chefs and to the staff looking after us.

We visited in July 2025 and had the best Sunday lunch we’ve ever eaten in a pub. On our next visit to the area, we booked up again and we were really sadly disappointed. The roast beef was tasteless and the gravy was watery and oily.

Booked a table for 4 (birthday lunch). Greeted warmly on arrival. Drinks and food ordered at a leisurely pace. We all had different main courses (including 2 off the specials menu), and all were excellent. Desserts were also excellent. Service was very good (attentive but not pushy). Lovely traditional pub. Our 2nd recent visit. We'll be back to try other choices on the menu!

Disappointed Ordered Sunday roast Chicken and stuffing Not a Roast chicken dinner as advertised Thought I was getting a proper roast chicken in the bone with chicken skin Instead I got a chicken fillet cooked as a roast dinner Where was the traditional chicken on the bone with crispy skin which is what I thought I was ordering Chicken was cooked beautifully but not a roast chicken dinner I didn’t order chicken fillet with mash and veg for £17.95

We went on Saturday 25th April a party of 4 the place was extremely busy but we were shown to our table straight away and didn’t wait long for orders to be taken the menu is extensive but we all found something we fancied. The food did not disappoint any of us all fresh and portions very good the service was excellent and friendly we couldn’t fault a thing and would highly recommend.

Booked the function room for 21 people for a 60th. The food, service and value were excellent. The staff were so attentive, and nothing was too much. Rob and his staff really looked after us. Highly recommended. 5*****
