    A focus on the incredible wines from Tenute Orestiadi, Sicily. A young company that vinifies the best grapes grown on the island: from the Belìce Valley to the slopes of Mount Etna with the aim of tracing routes that unite the people of the Mediterranean. Known as the crossroads of the Mediterranean and with influences from Italy and Spain but also Arabia and Africa, Sicilian cuisine is a veritable melting pot of flavour. Guests are invited to arrive from 6:30pm for a 7pm start. Due to the group nature of the evening we are unfortunately unable to delay proceedings for late arrivals. To see the menu or for any dietary requirements please contact Andrea on info@thewhiteoak.pub

    Have been looking forward to eating at the white oak for some time so booked a table well in advance. We arrived 15mins early so got a drink and my booking was confirmed so we waited and then when ready I was told the table wasn’t ready so 20mins later still no one came so again went and looked for someone and finally we went to the table no apologies for the wait or lack of updates we where given the menu and specials list so I chose the pork and my partner the lamb but was told the lamb had just finished by the table in front had just ordered the last one which would not had happened if we had our table at the time booked.we did enjoy the food we had very good and plenty but we felt let down by the service as after we finished took ages before anyone came to us to clear the table and offer us deserts such a shame as the pub is fantastic but I booked it for our anniversary and felt I had let my partner down but she did enjoy her food.

    Had a great Easter Sunday lunch at The White Oak. Service, food and experience were fantastic. The team actually forgot our starters completely - these things happen. But they dealt with it promptly. Travis, our server was brilliant. Highly recommended and we will be back.

    The roast beef was excellent; moist and cooked perfectly for my tastes (medium). The accompanying vegetables were also delicious and well presented in side dishes.

    Staying in the area on holiday and booked Sunday lunch. Food was very good and service excellent. All roasts were well presented with choice of vegetables and Yorkshire puddings. Seconds on request. Roast potatoes were outstanding. Lovely puddings and coffee. Would recommend.
