| Moved up to Oxford this summer and was soon recommended to head over to The Trout ... and I loved it! Been back again and again ... taken friends, family and clients there and have never been disappointed. Great selection of ales - I've enjoyed Oxford Gold, Purity UBU, Sharps Doom Bar, Tribute and they had Hobgoblin in for Halloween ... obviously they care about their ales! Food has always been great and the service is what I wanted ... friendly and efficient but without making me feel rushed. Great place! Great team!! richardrealaledrinker - 5 Nov 2010 12:00 |
| The food is reasonable, if overpriced but what really lets this place down is the service. We arrived at 12:00 on Saturday for a family lunch and were quickly ushered to a table as they wanted us 'out of the way' because it was busy and we were clearly taking up valuable real estate. What proceeded was shambolic. It was nearly an hour before our order was taken and then nearly another hour before the first course arrived. All in all it took them nearly 4 hours to serve two courses - we gave up on desert as we had better things to do. Beer was OK but this is not really a pub, it's a restaurant and a badly organised one at that. Avoid. centrpoint - 31 Oct 2010 14:24 |
| Dreadful place! - another example of an genuine old pub that's been gutted and replaced with fake 'old' decor, so that it looks like every other fake-old pub in every other town. For the first time I can remember I felt underdressed in a pub! - or should I say "pub", because this is really just an over-priced restaurant for the local monied classes and tourists. They should stop the pretence and take the pub sign down outside and rip the bar out to put more tables in. Shame because it has a great riverside location. discerningdan - 18 Mar 2010 21:43 |
| I don't feel I can add anything to the three of four reviews below. A real waste. thomashenry - 1 Jul 2009 13:37 |
| I arrived at this pub having walked 20 miles of the Thames Path. I was expecting an old fashioned riverside pub with character where I could rest my weary feet and have a few ales in celebration. Boy was I disappointed. On entering the place it wasn't at all clear whether it was a pub at all - you had to search to find the bar and if you didn't intend to eat there was very little of a welcome. The one ale I had was OK, but nothing special. Certainly there was nothing to persuade me to stay. alexw123 - 22 Nov 2008 17:38 |
