A little bit about us…

Each pub has its own story, character, and loyal locals, but they all share the same welcoming spirit. Whether it’s top-notch sports screenings, quiz nights, or DJs keeping the party going, there’s always something happening. At most of our pubs, you’ll find proper pub grub – with big, juicy burgers and classic fish and chips being firm favourites. And when it comes to pouring a cracking pint, we’ve got it nailed. We serve up real value, a great atmosphere, and a pub experience that’s worth every penny. The Oakwood is a fantastic community pub with a large sports area, benefiting from a wide range of facilities, from two pool tables to the quiet restaurant. This pub is always running local events and showing a variety of live acts. We also show a wide variety of football and horse racing.
