British Oak Ale House - Sheffield

Came here for Christmas Eve lunch and the food was absolutely amazing, best meal I've had in a really long time everything was so flavourful and piping hot. Definitely worth the money we were totally stuffed at the end and such a lovely atmosphere, lovely way to spend Christmas Eve!

Booked a table in the 'tap room area ' ad the main restaurant was full. Ordered at the bar which was fine, although the gurl serving us was unable to answer any questions about kids menu. Food took ages to come, and when it did they had forgotten one of the kids peas. I chased this up but they took so long to come the rest of us had finished. Same with condiments, only arriving 10 mins after the food. Food was OK but nothing special, service was poor. I only live round the corner but this reminded me why it had been so long since I last ate here, and why I tend to go to craftworks if wanting a drink locally.

Booked a table this evening with my husband and dog. On arrival having checked earlier that it is dog friendly we presented ourselves at the bar. The bar is an area with a tiled floor. We were then handed menus and told to sit where we wanted down the steps into the tap room area. We had booked a table, were not shown to this. No table had reserved on it! Everytime the door opened it was freezing. I had dressed for having a nice relaxing meal and several glasses of wine. DONT offer yourselves as a dog friendly eatery if your not! Now at home British Oak, with a takeaway and a bottle .very disappointing service or lack of it. The British Oak Booking Confirmation (DMN-16840893209)

We booked in last minute. Ordered the pie roast which was one of the best pies I have had, veg was cooked to perfection and really tasty and good old hendo's to go on our pie. Dessert I had apple and ginger crumble with custard just one word wow!! My husband tasted it has he had one in another pub last week and said it topped that by far. Hubby had sticky toffee pudding, good size portions and very nice. Service excellent.

We went in today for the Sunday lunch as it was a special anniversary, the food was cold, I had to find a waitress she took the food bk to the kitchen 5 mins later she bought the food bk it had been microwaved and was soggy and dry we couldn't eat this as it was awful, we were offered a free drink or dessert but refused this and left.
