Fantastic ploughman’s, the pork pie is hands down best I’ve ever had 😋 huge portions 😳 lovely friendly staff, super dog friendly, fantastic pit stop, tempted to book the shepherds hut so I can ditch the car on the next visit 🍻

A favourite! Great as ever. Top beer and food 😎and fantastic walks in every direction 🎯

Very atmospheric pub at the end of the road. Good selection of beers, and knowledgeable staff that can give beer advice. Sheds in the garden may need improving as they are downgrading the view of the pub from this perspective. Beer in the garden still tastes the same though. 😉

Very familiary pub, very friendly staff and fabulos traditional ploughman’s…THANK YOU FOR AN WONDERFUL AFTERNOON!

Great food,pleasant staff and quick service,easy parking especially if you're on 2 wheels,big outdoor area with plenty of tables and dog friendly,I'd get there fairly early on a Sunday as it does get busy.

This place is ALWAYS busy and it’s easy to see why. Food wise, they only serve ploughman’s. But if you’re going to do one thing - then you do it really well! Lovely homemade pickle, dressing, pickled onion and coleslaw. Delish ham, pork pies and sausage rolls. Lots of beers and lagers on tap. Interesting Gins like mermaid gin. I believe they try to source everything locally and you can taste the quality. The perfect pub to walk through the new forest and enjoy a pint afterwards.

Great pub serving great ploughman's lunches. Good place to stop if you're walking or cycling around the New Forest. Relax and enjoy a drink, food, the beer garden, views and good vibes

I stopped for an afternoon pint at The Royal Oak after a beautiful walk in the New Forest. You really can’t beat the outlook from their pub garden – it’s just stunning. The drinks were good and reasonable too, and I will return for one of their amazing looking Ploughman’s!

Lovely pub, with big garden and in pleasent location on the edge of the New forest. Good selection of ales and beers. Theirs also a good selection of a ploughman's at fairly good value. This is a good starting point for some great walks

Quaint welcoming little pub. Delicious ploughman’s, ingredients are fresh. Saw on TV and definitely worth the hype. Friendly quick service. Only comment would be perhaps serve the food on larger plates. Will be returning!
