About The Royal Oak

The Royal Oak in Orpington is a country pub & restaurant oozing rural charm and rustic character. Our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Book a table online and enjoy a spot by our roaring log-fire. Or make the best of the British summertime by eating alfresco in our pretty beer garden.

A little pub history

Our location in Orpington makes us an ideal place to stop for a bite to eat... before or after a long journey. When you stop you will enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of our rustic pub restaurant. We were formerly home to the Orpington Folk Club until they moved in 1965, although the Club still provides entertainment in Orpington.

Make a day of it

Our distinctive looking inn is near High Elms Country Park, a mix of conservation areas, unspoiled woodland, formal gardens, wildflower meadows and nature trails. Down House, the home of Charles Darwin, is also nearby.
