First built in 1820 and rebuilt in 1879, this is a rare Victorian pub in the city centre. There is a single narrow panelled room, with the bar on one side and seating on the other. The glazed timber screens have been removed to give more room. In the entrance there is some original tiling, mostly obscured. After being run by St Austell Brewery for a while the pub reopened under West Berkshire Brewery ownership in April 2019 but the brewery went into administration. Now in the hands of an independent pub company and boasts 40 keg lines, 6 casks, and 2 ciders. Oxford CAMRA City Pub of the Year 2025.

Historic Interest

Victorian, still with some original features.
