The White Horse, Oxford

I also found the staff to be very nice to deal with, helpful, assertive and chatty - a rarity in this day and age.

The White Horse, Oxford

My girlfriend and I visited the White Horse on the 3rd of January and had a very enjoyable evening. The pub is a lovely old-world pub with a classic dark-wood, quirky, low ceiling interior plus a lovely snug at one end of the pub.

My first pint of beer was cloudy, but I later found that the barrel had gone. My second pint was much better. The selection of beer was excellent and I also found the food to be very pleasant.

Overall a definite pub for anyone to visit.

Went in today and service is fairly abysmal. The lady who served me walked off after doing the first drink of my order and didn't come back for nearly 10 minutes, by which time I'd had my order completed by someone else. There was only IPA and Bombardier on tap.

The food took 50 minutes despite it being fairly quiet and my girlfriend's medium-rare steak sandwich was quite well done.

I won't be going back in a hurry.
