Royal Oak Hotel
The Royal Oak, a historic pub that has been standing since at least 1799, is conveniently located at the end of Sowerby Street, earning it the affectionate nickname "Top o' the street". This roadside establishment welcomes patrons with an L-shaped bar immediately upon entry. The interior is divided into two sections within a single room. To the right, guests can enjoy a game of pool by a real fire, housed in an original fireplace, adding to the pub's rustic charm. On the left side, sports enthusiasts can catch the latest games on the sports TV, while karaoke facilities provide entertainment for those looking to showcase their singing talents. A pub garden at the back of the premises offers an outdoor space for patrons to relax and socialize. However, it's worth noting that as of June 2023, the Royal Oak has ceased serving cask ale.
