About Oakingham Belle
Oakingham Belle is a large pub on Oak Ave in Wokingham, where the waitstaff provide table service and guests can order on their phones. A separate gluten-free (NGCI) menu is written for coeliacs, and the kitchen takes allergies and dietary requirements into account, so meals can be agreed in advance of a visit. Roasts are on the menu, and Sunday lunch is served. Lunch is also available during the week. Sticky toffee pudding is on the dessert list.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the allergy and dietary handling, with a coeliac reviewer praising a separate NGCI menu and a family with multiple allergies describing concerns taken seriously, a chat with the chef and a child's meal and pudding agreed in advance. Close behind is the table service, where waitresses are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and quick, and reviewers call the food delicious, Sunday lunch included. One reviewer calls the sticky toffee pudding divine and another likes the outdoor seating and ordering on a phone. Several describe a warm atmosphere for such a large pub. The one critical review found the Sunday roast meats dry and tasteless, though the vegetables were well cooked, and also faulted the draught beer and cider selection and the sticky tables. Reviewers describe birthday meals handled with care and say they will be returning.

“Went to the Oakingham Belle to celebrate my partners birthday and we had a great experience. Staff were so lovely and welcoming, they were super busy as the pub is huge and clearly very popular, but service was spot on. Carly was fab and couldn’t have done any more to accommodate us. I am a coeliac so always seem to struggle when going to places to eat but here they have a separate NGCI menu which Carly was happy to help me with. Will definitely be going back!”

“Thoroughly enjoyed our evening out. The food was lovely. Our waitress was fantastic. Ellouise was friendly, always smiling, nothing was too much for her. Really topped the evening off having a waitress that you could laugh with and enjoy your evening even more.”

“Had a great visit to The Oakingham Belle. The food and atmosphere were excellent, but what really stood out was the fantastic service. Ellouise was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome throughout our visit. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Globally bit disappointed. Good location, sticky tables (but this is the standard in UK, unfortunately), the roasts had good cooked vegetables but less than average quality meats. Too dry, tasteless. Poor choice of draught beers/ciders Sorry, I will not come again. Too be fair, price was in line with the product. A general pity”
