New tenants from 22 January 2025 (had been closed temporarily on 6 January 2025) with the food offering being restored from 29 January 2025. The details are from the previous tenants and are subject to change.

Cosy low beamed 16th century pub tucked away in the back streets of Watlington. Pleasant lounge bar with old tables and benches and candles. The food offering is branded as Mayfu (modern Chinese cuisine) which is also available to take away - please telephone to book a table (optional) or for the takeaway.
