Yes… it’s AI 😂 We haven’t suddenly filled every table with people dressed for December in the middle of August.
But there is a reason for the hats and scarves*… our air con is working overtime ❄️🧣😂
So while it’s too hot outside, you can still enjoy a delicious Royal Oak meal in cool comfort inside.
And of course… John still managed to make an appearance 👀😂
📍 The Royal Oak, Orpington
🍴 Good food. Cold air. John included.
*hats & scarves not necessary - it’s not that cold!
