The Royal Oak is a typical none descript high street pub in the centre of Radcliffe with what looks to be quite an old building with previously mentioned leaded windows. Sightly less enthusieastic
than the previous reviewers experice I'm afraid as i thought the interior was a tad bland as the result of obvinumerous mini refirbushments over the years. Where the pub would have been many sepperate rooms these are all knocked through but still partitioned by the presance of obvious retaining walls that allow it to feel somewhat still partitioned. The dining room to the left did seem slightly better furnished but with precisely 0 diners in it did notreally help.The decor is nothing special with hard floors and standard fixtures. The beamed celing has been hideously white washed unfortunately.

The numerous hand pulls on the bar sadly only had Landlord and Harvest pale doubled up so we opted for one of each which set us back a hefty £7.70 which I consider a tad excessive for this region.
Neither beer really excited with the Pale a tad better kept that the labdlord but neither warranted a second pint. Overall a fairly drab town pub that only had a dosen customers on a Saturday evening. With a bit of money and some TLC this place could be good, sadly it just seems to be ticking over at the minute but the presance of real ale is somewhat redeeming
