Royal Oak - HARROW

Excellent pub in a very good location just next to the shopping centre , lovely helpful staff, good food and very nice cold drinks.

I came to have dinner with my family and I can honestly say I have never been so disrespected in a location.The staff were racially abusive, made false accusations and unprofessional. I had asked my nephew to order a drink for my husband as I am heavily pregnant and found it difficult to keep walking up.The staff refused to serve my nephew due to his appearance and smirked and laughed behind the bar.I have never felt so disrespected. I would not recommend this place.

The Staff were very friendly attentive and seemed genuine, we had some good pub style food, Nachos and a Burger and chips, all food was served hot and delicious. Thanks Royal Oak

This is a lovely bar and just reeks with history. It has a central location right smack in the middle of 2 shopping precincts. Have witnessed a staff changeover with a strong team now settled. An enormous Eastern European crowd predominates, but this is intermittently challenged by a strong thread of Harrow locals and is especially fun on match days. Here, the North/South divide is chewed over and felt when league teams on either side play at the nearby Wembley Stadium. Then, this space becomes really interesting and fun. Not surprisingly, the pub is now offering the staple Karaoke Night and Quiz. Though note that standard of singing,on the Karaoke Night including songs from shows and opera, makes this a night out. A recent visit to the Live Music Night was met with visitors and locals alike dancing, ols stool style to a professional locally sourced. Pubs are disappearing at a rapid rate with those still holding social fabric together keeping the faith in doing what pubs have been designed since inception to do: be a collective space for strangers and locals to chew the fat and enjoy entertainment put on to keep both happy. At it's best The Royal Oak keeps the tradition started in 1327 alive and kicking.

Booked at table for 7 (including 2 highchairs) for Sunday lunch using the online booking form and when we got there, the barmaid abruptly went 'we don 't have highchairs ' so when we explained that we had actually booked it and been the given the option to book highchairs so she shrugged at us and walked off. Disgusting attitude, no apology, no highchairs, despite online saying that they do... Will not return down to this stroppy barmaid souring our entire experience.
