Yahoo News The pub near Coventry offering Sunday lunches with 'bottomless' roasties
A well-known pub near Coventry has been praised for offering 'fantastic Sunday lunches'. Customers have praised The Oak pub in Baginton for an 'extensive' Sunday lunch menu that has 'delicious' options for everyone.
Pubgoers have given praise to the Baginton boozer for 'unlimited' Sunday roast toppings as well as 'great service'. The Oak has a 4-star rating on Tripadvisor, with other ratings including food (4/5), service (4/5), value (4/5) and atmosphere (3.5/5). The eatery also has a 4.1-star rating on Google reviews.
One diner said: "The food was excellent. The roast dinners had a good quantity of quality meat and I like the idea of 'bottomless roasties, Yorkshire puds and gravy' great for those with an appetite but not overwhelming portions for those without."

The pub is near Coventry Airport. For those looking for a mini-break, there are 'modern' rooms in the annex.
Staff say all the Sunday roasts at The Oak are served with buttery mashed potato, British roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and rich beef gravy, alongside roasted carrots, parsnips, and glazed broccoli. What's more, they include unlimited top-ups of roasties, Yorkshire puds, and gravy - so it sounds like a case of what's not to like?
There are six choices of meat to choose from: sirloin of beef, loin of pork, hand-carved turkey, lamb shank, triple roast, or mushroom Wellington for those who are vegetarian. The pub also serves kids' roasts with the same options, starting from £7.

A diner said: "The Sunday lunch was lovely, the Yorkshire puddings were great, the portions were amazingly big, and the unlimited Yorkshires/potatoes/gravy was a great offer. The atmosphere of the pub is lovely, especially with all the plane-related decor."

"But I was impressed by how quick and friendly the service was. The menu was varied and we all found something we liked to eat. It was worth the wait and it was tasty and the portions generous."
