Narrow, single-bar 1930s pub paying homage to a famous cricketer on its bat-shaped corner chimney stack. It has a friendly trendy-cocktail-bar feel, with comfy squishy bench seats, a real fire, a pool table, nice staff and regular DJ nights on the weekend. On rare party occasions there is also live music. | |

Cracking little pub, fantastic atmosphere and a real hidden gem in Oxford. Good priced drinks and friendly landlord make this an ideal pub for getting together with your mates, and also for pre-club drinks.
OxStudent, 05/08/10 Quiz review: A lively night with a crackling atmosphere, the Cricketer’s quiz (Mondays, 9ish) is run by a number of wise-cracking characters whose irreverent and individual approach gives the proceedings an element of theatre as well as competition. I always seem to end up drinking more than I intended at this one. Extremely tacky and yet strangely desirable plastic type prizes for each round, with a Play Your Cards Right jackpot at the end. Purists may be offended by the trivial nature of the trivia (current affairs rounds seem to stray naturally to the seamier side of the week’s news), but get into the spirit of it and you’re sure to have a great time. Go there with lots of mates and shout at the opposition. Susie Cogan, 08/06/06
