We stopped by unannounced. They we just finishing a coffee morning which had been well subscribed. The lunch menu was very good - reasonable choice, good sized portions and reasonable prices. Service excellent.

We visited this pub/restaurant today for a drink before ordering a meal; sitting at our table having a drink in the main bar getting ready to order food when another customer standing six feet away starts smoking an E-cigarette with the smell wafting all over us.I complained to the bar staff about this customers behaviour and I was told it was acceptable to use E-cigarettes inside The Three Oaks Pub.We finished our drinks and left.If there was signage stating that E-cigarettes were allowed inside the bar we could have made a choice to risk our health or not in this pub.

We came here for Sunday lunch, we werenât able to reserve a table as they only allow large groups to reserve. My partner dropped my elderly mother and myself off first then went off to park the car. Whilst we were waiting for him to arrive we perused the menu and my mum decided to have a chicken dish whilst I decided to have mackerel. We chose to wait until my partner arrived to order because we didnât want our two dishes to arrive before his, so 15 mins later he arrives and we all order, 1 chicken and 2 mackerel dishes. At this point the rather unfriendly waitress decides to inform as that because everything is cooked fresh we will have to wait 20 minutes for the chicken to be cooked! For Peteâs sake! If you had only bothered to write that on the menu instead of just telling us now then we could have ordered it ages ago, what is so difficult about writing this down clearly on the menu like they do with soufflés for instance. So we had an excruciating long wait for food which wasnât worth waiting for. Mums chicken was nice but didnât come with anything starchy like potatoes, just vegetables and sauce, our mackerel was cooked perfectly, and a brave choice for a chef to choose to serve a whole fish, but came with raw beans and undercooked potatoes. Also I had to ask the waitress for a dish to put the fish waste on which a good restaurant should give you automatically, and no seasoning on the table either. I was still hungry afterwards but refused to wait any longer to order dessert. Iâm not a fan of these pub/restaurant mashups, I think they rarely work, be a bar or be a restaurant but not both. The ambience wasnât great here either, not very friendly, lots of unaware types, bashing you with their bags and rucksacks, and way too noisy. I wouldnât rush back here, itâs not cheap either, we only had 3 main courses and no drinks and it came to £50 and I was still hungry!

We hadnt been here for a few years so met up with friends for a sunday lunch. Bar staff didn't seem to understand what low alcohol beer was until she moved and we saw it on the shelf behind her. We were handed a Sunday Lunch Menu and assumed this was the only food available; just one veggie option which was gnocci and was the size of a starter when it arrived - which didn't bother me since I don't particuarlly like it but it was all they had. Friends described their crab salad as 'very tired' and one had a frozen hard boiled egg! Apparently some restaurants actually buy in eggs already frozen - but I thought that was just McDonalds! The roast was good though very expensive for what it was and the deserts were great. The setting/building etc is lovely but its a shame about the food - it used to be great years ago.Thank you for taking the time to write your review.This is my chance to respond to you:The Sunday lunch menu is limited yes, if you mean 8 starters 8 mains and 6 puddings minimum limited, when some places only offer this on a daily basis. Our normal menu and specials which we offer 6 days a week is huge, so perhaps you should come to us midweek.Gnocchi is extremely Filling we have found by experience that a lot of it used to come back, but looking at our portion sizes i dont not think it is starter size.Our Dressed crab salad which comes in fresh every morning from Rye... which comes with a decent size salad, if you go to our facebook page or instagram you will see a picture of this salad. In regards to the FROZEN eggs i dont know if you saw our locals board they come from less an a mile down the road from a lovely man called Mr Taylor, i didnt even know you could get frozen eggs.... perhaps you should try frozen eggs then come back to me once you have.You have had your say and now i have had mine.Hope you have a lovely day.Harriet
