Had a couple of reasonable pints in here the other day, lacking in atmosphere, and whilst i appreciate and like the unusual decor i do feel it could do with a good clean. I noticed a sign proclaiming "for sale" so hopefully things will improve.
There were only three ales on, but space for ten, that speaks volumes

The back room is my favourite bit of this pub. It's cosy and full of musical paraphenalia. The guest beers we've had have all been fine. Although in general I'm not a GK fan, this pub seems to rise above its association.

Well, it used to be (pre GK) a wonderful pub. Now - well, hit and miss. Rather expensive (even for Oxford) and you never know if there are any guest (ie non GK) beers on at all. Certainly wouldn't be in my top ten of Oxford pubs let alone POTY.

A bit disappoinitng to be honest..didn't realise it was a GK house until I saw the limited range of ale on offer. Had the sole guest beer on offer which was drinkable but can't say this pub deserves it's place in the GBG... there are far better places in Oxford that aren't in it than this.
