The Royal Oak is a popular gastropub which serves cocktails. On Sundays it is very busy due to the market on Columbia Road. Children are welcome and no-smoking tables are available upstairs. There is also a small courtyard.

The Royal Oak London Reviews


Very bad service - Rude staff, average food.

We walked into an empty restaurant and were made to feel unwelcome right from the start.

After an average expensive meal, we were hustled out for the next unlucky suckers.

Very bad show for what is simply a gastropub.

They include service in the price, shame they don't include it on the night.

Unfriendly service, decent food - It's a shame about the snobbish wait staff here, but maybe it comes with the territory in trendy East London.

Felt like our business was not appreciated in this large, wooden-clad, trendy pub full of fashionable posers.

One would think for a £35 average meal per person the service could be a little more helpful. The food was nice though, and the drink selection extensive.

A flowery roast dinner - Had an almost perfect Sunday here last weekend. SPent the morning mooching around Columbia Road flower market and Spitalfields, then had a lovely boozy roast lunch here. It's c. £12 for roast beef and the food is really good, nice quality meat and equally yummy sharing platters for starters and calorific puddings. The service at the bar can be a little slow, but then it does get mad hectic come 2.30pm when the flower market shuts up for the day (hint - buy your flowers then, they're knocked to about 50% off!). Great mix of pple too, from locals, to trendy types.

Great on sundays. - The Royal Oak is a great pub - all dark wooden interior and as you'd expect from a pub on Columbia Rd there are loads of flowers and foliage in the small courtyard out back.

It gets a bit manic on a Sunday what with the flower market and all but the roasts are to die for. In the week its great for a quiet glass of wine and a chat with your mate - oh and smokers take note - they have the most adorable outdoor back room.
