Oxford’s oldest-established LGBTQ+ venue, serving proudly for over 40 years. The Jolly Farmers is an old building against remains of the city wall. The superb building dates from the late 17th century but the first record of it being a pub is in 1829. There are two small, low-beamed rooms and a raised area to the rear, with the bar, and a short flight of stairs that lead to a terrace and small garden, now extended. The pub welcomes everybody, so don’t be put off by its LGBTQ+ branding. You can even order your own takeaway food and get it delivered to the pub.

Historic Interest

C17 in origin but restored. 2-storeyed roughcast rubble and gabled timber-framing. Overhang at 1st floor on North.
