About The Royal Oak Watford Heath

The Royal Oak has a great location on the edge of Watford Heath and the Grade II-listed building has been given a new lease of life after a recent makeover. Experienced restaurateurs Lee and Sue Colbert have revitalised the classic old pub, giving it a South African twist. You can dine inside or out and their home-cooked meals use the best locally sourced ingredients. Expect their take on a traditional British menu infused with a taste of their native city Durban. The chicken wings are legendary. Food is served from 4pm Tuesday to Thursday and from 12 noon Friday to Sunday.

We visited for my Partner’s 30th Birthday celebrations and the staff, in particular Tom, were so lovely and attentive. It was a bring your own BBQ, which was a great experience! I would highly recommend!

We visited the Horse n Chains frequently and therefore decided to come to the Royal Oak for the same menu. We were a bit disappointed except for the chips which were excellent. Cheese sauce instead of cheese on a burger is not the best. We had a lovely evening though and will come back

Been coming to the Royal Oak Watford Heath more & more! The Sunday roasts are great but last night we had sourdough pizza from the Tuesday night pop up stall. Reasonably priced and really tasty. Definitely coming back.

What a lovely pub!! Great food, wonderful service in a delightful setting. I had the roast rib beef which was delicious. The Yorkshire Puddings however weren’t the greatest, overdone and burnt. That aside, fabulous, we had a lovely afternoon and I will be back.
