Royal Oak

The Royal Oak is a charming 19th century pub in the village of River near Dover in Kent. Good beers and a friendly warm welcome for all with fresh, seasonal British food.

Everyone in the village has waited patiently for The Oak to be given a new lease of life, and boy it has not disappointed! Had a few roasts here and not a single complaint, lovely little suntrap where the seating is and recently added more seating in the back area. So happy we can wonder down for a mid week g&t. We have also taken part in the monthly quizzes that really fill the pub out, its a fun evening!

We visited The Coastguard on a rainy chilly evening in October. The location of the place is just great, right on the beach. We even enjoyed the windy road down - my fellow travelers wondered how on earth I found this place! The food was excellent, the staff very welcoming, friendly, helpful. The only downside to our visit was that the pub was not very warm. They must have had the heating turned off. It would have been a lot cosier if the temperature was a little higher.Thank you for your review. Sorry that the pub was a bit cold. We are just at that time of year between having the heating on and off - also soon we will have our roaring central fire going! Hope to see you again.

We found the place because it's on the way to Dover. We wanted to eat, especially since we'd read on Tripadvisor the food was good. Nobody said anything of the restaurant only serving food on certain days. Not during the week. That said, the Hobgoblin was excellent, and the owner was ever so helpful and kind.

Reviewed By daghim

We choose this restaurant because was late and the one we wanted to go was not serving meals that evening. The restaurant is simple but nice and warm but the meal was wonderful. I took a surf and turf and the meat was tender like butter. My wife and daughter took the fish and chips, crispy and light. My boy took an hamburger also very tasty and juicy. Apple pies with custard really good as well. We also discovered that on the bottom of the restaurant (where the toilets are located) there is a canteen with live music. We were tired but next time we'll definitely end the evening down there.

Visited with family on a Saturday night. We all had a meal which everybody thought was very nice and reasonably priced. I had the homemade pie and mash which was lovely. The young man that served our table was very polite and friendly. Dog friendly too which is great. Would definitely return next time I’m in the area.

A true traditional pub with great character, friendly staff and a great range of drinks which includes a great selection of well kept ale. The staff and locals make a visit to the smugglers bar a gruelling enjoyable experience. The food menu is well priced and the food is of great quality, is well present and cooked. I had a sirloin steak which was cooked to perfection, I can highly recommend the steak. Wish I could have given a sixth star for the food alone.

Nice locals pub serving Birra Moretti among other others and interesting decor with the signatures of those who have been brave enough to tackle cross channel swim.
