A much nicer environment?

According to a poll published in the licensed trade publication, The Publican, this week, 61% of smokers think bars and pubs are nicer without smoking, with 90 per cent of non-smokers agreeing.

However, the survey also showed non-smokers have not increased their “going out” behaviour as much as anticipated before the ban was imposed in July.

In a previous survey in May, 47 per cent of non-smokers indicated they would go out more often once the ban came into force - but only 32 per cent now say they actually have done so.

In other findings, 56% of non-smokers believe that bar staff appear happier since the ban - well you must come down to the Royal Oak and check out our bar staff! We're happy now - and we were happy then!

The Oak offers a pleasant smoke-free atmosphere - but for those who must, our extensive outdoor seating area allows you the chance to socialise and smoke in comfort.

Come along and see us this week - we've a great new specials menu - and we've live Bluegrass on Thursday evening.
