Hotel with bar and restaurant
The actual 18th century coaching inn was demolished in 1772 and another inn built on the site in 1840 - the Flying Horse, for H & G Simonds Brewery of Reading. It was sold in 1891 and completely rebuilt in 1899/1900 to a design by E. P. Warren in 17th century style and renamed the Eastgate. It was regularly frequented in the 1940s by CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien who were dons at Magdalen College across the road. Enlarged in the 1960s it is now a 4 star hotel and restaurant but has a bar with some beer from kegs.
