We moved back to Mentone 15 months ago and the Royal Oak is just around the corner. We come here almost weekly as the meals are consistently excellent and the service warm and welcoming. As seniors, the meals are of a generous size with the vegetables well-cooked and varied. We usually have the roast beef or pork (thick slices), fish and chips or lamb rissoles. When we also have soup it's always hot and tasty. For many years we went to Highways at Sandown (Melbourne Racing Club). The décor here may not be as stylish but who cares if the food is ten times better! We've eaten at many top restaurants and clubs over forty years (even run our own at one stage), so we feel qualified to make judgements. For great home-style cooking we'll certainly frequent the Royal Oak as often as possible.
What a freshen up!!. Sam's the man, this venue manager is piloting the Royal Oak through exciting times. New look, fresh vibe and bringing this iconic venue into the today space. I'll be back!
Value. Front bar $10 meals, all the time - can't complain about that. They have about 12 different options. The Parma was great, good size. The rump steak was also good value.
There is also a bistro inside with a larger menu, kids menu and desserts.
Love food .nice friendly staff.had nice rump cooked lovely.back gain
Really good food and lovely staff. Double beef burger yummo
Lots of off street parking. Pub food in a very cozy, clean bistro. Popular gaming venue. Menu choices were varied, seniors meals were a bargain, starting at $12 for a single course up to $15 for 3, including a $2 gaming voucher. Relaxing evening meal, will visit again.
Great pub for a cold beer and chicken Parma
For the time we went there at 130am from hospital for a cheer up it was great. Quite but friendly and security was helpful and made us 2 lattes each with real milk. That was a treat. We stayed till close and also won so added bonus. All in all we will go to the Royal again. The Refurb is happening in March now due to building delays we were told.
So my main 5 stars are for supplying a great atmosphere and secure environment. With a welcoming intro...♤♡◇♧
