The Royal Oak, Hardington

Nestled in the heart of Somerset, The Royal Oak – affectionately known as Sonny’s by locals – is a true gem in the picturesque village of Hardington. Once the farmhouse of its namesake, Sonny White, the pub is still part of the White family’s working dairy farm, steeped in Somerset’s rural charm. Whether you’re stopping by for lunch, dinner, or a cosy evening drink with friends, The Royal Oak offers a warm and welcoming slice of Somerset hospitality. This proper country pub is proud to showcase the best of Somerset, with a fantastic selection of real ales, lagers, and ciders, as well as homemade dishes crafted from local and seasonal produce. Seafood fans will love our specials menu, available Thursday to Saturday evenings, featuring fresh flavours that celebrate the region. More than just a pub, The Royal Oak is the beating heart of the Somerset community – a place where everyone feels right at home.
