Very popular corner house at the top of Edgeley's shopping street. A very thorough re-modelling of the interior took place in early 2022. This saw the removal of the central bar and thus the original floor plan of two rooms. The bar is now sited on the right-hand wall with this facing a large, comfortable room. A quieter snug-like area at the front provides respite from the hubbub of normal activity. This change also meant that cask ale returned to the pub after a long absence. Two football teams are based at the Royal Oak, they are looking for darts and pool teams to play out of the pub too. They have live sport on TV while a DJ and karaoke will entertain you from 7pm on various days. Real fires and roast chestnuts will feature in the winter months. Match days can see the place rammed, so it's worth knowing when the Hatters are playing at home.
