I would highly recommend this pub for anyone who's after consistently fantastic food, great value for money, superb atmosphere, good music, unpretentious, friendly staff, and if you're into sports...even better! Their food is of extremely high standard for a pub, and I would especially recommend their burgers and pies. They are MASSIVE and you get a huge share of chips. Their sunday roasts are really good too and clearly popular as every time I have been there the place is packed and almost everyone's having one of their sunday roasts. L, 27/10/07 This is a great find. A pub that caters well for it's locals but also for the student population of Oxford. If you like to watch sport, chat to friends or have some good food then this is for you. There's standing room at the bar, comfy sofas, a couple of booths, tables and a newly refurbished outdoor seating area that's undercover. Staff are young chatty and friendly and add to the overall atmosphere of the pub. They have managed to create a pub that is neither old and stuffy nor too like the chain bars. It lies somewhere inbetween with a unique character all of its own. The food is good quality, classic pub grub that has been brought up to date. The Sunday roasts stand out for the local area. Woody, 17/10/07 Great pub that doesn't get the recognition it deserves. It's kind of like a down-to-earth, less pretentious All Bar One on a small scale. Good burgers and Sunday roasts, friendly staff, small but cosy patio garden at rear for summer and flat-screen TV at rear for sport. Only minor gripe would be the slightly drafty front bar area that lacks a little character but overall a quality pub that is deserving of high praise. Joe B, 14/03/07 Our sports team goes here for food and beer after we finish. It is really a nice pub, great food, good sports screens that are not too overbearing, and very friendly staff. Really top place. Tom, 12/10/06 What a great new/refurbished pub on the Oxford scene! Excellent staff, very comfy booth and armchair seating. Excellent food. A real gem near busy Cowley Road. 16/09/06 OK, so I have to admit that I never went there for a pint under the old management so I can't compare BUT as far as today goes it's brilliant. Friendly, good looking staff who are always ready and waiting to fill up your pint glass and seem to change your ashtray at least every 4.5 minutes. Great selection of beers and spirits. The main bar is full of sunlight, clean and well laid out with lots of big leather sofas surrounding widescreen tvs together with big country-kitchen armchairs and tables. If you want to sit in the garden, there are no dodgy smells or noises. So long as the British weather permits, you are bathed in sunlight almost all day and there are plenty of benches to sit on. The food is FANTASTIC. Every Sunday sees everyone who knows about it, pouring in for a sample of the vast and delicious menu. service is prompt, the food is always served hot and to top it off the prices are more than reasonable. Would definitely recommend. Loz, 21/08/06
