About our tenth time for breakfast! Speaks for itself. As vegetarians it's hard to get a great breakfast but the veggie maxi skillet is unreal. This visit it was peak! Seemed to be more cheese than usual, which was a major positive. Great place and great staff, would definitely recommend.

Great service and lovely food in a relaxed and sophisticated environment. Outdoor lighting unfortunately wasn’t turned on so we where left reliant on the couple on the next door table to turn on heating lamp just to get some lighting. Fortunately they were happy to keep doing so, as heater was on a timer and kept turning off at regular intervals.

I have been coming to the Green Oak for a number of years. I am delighted to confirm that after a period of mediocrity it’s now firmly back in the great category. Regularly meet up with old work colleagues who now seem to favour the Green Oak for our get together. Food is of a good standard consistently, but the real USP is the staff always a different person but always the same outstanding service friendly welcoming warm. Whoever is responsible for interview and selection well done, don’t ever drop your standard it’s what makes the difference.
