Website

Reopened at 5pm on Thursday 5 December 2024 with new licensees (who also operate the nearby New Inn) after the previous tenants left in April 2024. The pub has had a thorough redecoration throughout to provide a comfortable and welcoming interior, if a little minimalist on the furnishings side.

Website, opening hours and basic information have been updated, pending a complete survey. The website reports that the food offering will source fresh seasonal ingredients from local suppliers.

Originally a 16th century coaching inn, with a pleasant low ceilinged lounge bar at the front with a large open inglenook fireplace, and a separate dining room to the rear. There is also an enclosed garden at the back of the pub.

Information for this venue is provided by the South Oxfordshire Branch of CAMRA
