A night of loving niceness happened at the Tap Social this weekend. Everyone had a fabulous time dancing to the vinyl selection of SkyLarkin hosting Reggae Redemption. The staff really are a lovely, friendly and positive team of servers who always contribute to making Tap a great place to visit, meet friends, make new ones and have the best time. I look forward to partying with you all again real soon. Thank you so much 💗

Lord of fun. The staff is accommodating and cheerful and the food very good. There were 14 of us and everything was delicious. The second round of bloody Marys was surprisingly... sweet (?!?), but it did not matter much by then

Tap Social is one of the best venues in Oxford by miles. Staff is always lovely and very friendly + relaxed and chilled. Drinks are great if you're into drinking and their events are always top class. Can't recommend them enough so just go and see for yourself.

Honestly have visited many times because I live in Botley and there's not much else there. The music is always far too loud, you have to shout even far from the speakers, and the own-brand beer is uncomfortably heavy. I appreciate what they're doing but it always leads to a disappointing night out. Love the artwork tho.

My number 1 favourite place in the whole of Oxford by a long way. Incredible beer, excellent prices, authentic quirk and most importantly smiling staff that are a pleasure to be around. They hold events of every shape and size from Wrestling to Morris Men. It's a great hang out spot that's somehow cosy yet has loads of space. Don't get me wrong, it can get a bit chilly in the winter, and the parking is a little hazy, but you'll soon forget that. This place may be single handily bringing the community back to Oxford. So stop paying for overpriced pints in pubs that all look the same and have nothing on. Go experience a friendly little slice of home.

Monday Dead Leg Comedy nights are a great mix of established and open mic comedians, with a core 4 comedians who host the night and also act as the house band, its been great to see them develop a cool repetoir of tunes (60s/70s/alt/rock/punk/metal/allsorts). A real cosy night with the added bonus of great beers, ace cocktails and fresh cooked pizza.

Went here for a gig (as part of the band) - really friendly and helpful team, great beer and pizzas. Location is really odd - as someone unfamiliar with the area, I wouldn't expect a venue at the back of a village industrial estate next to the A34 to even exist. Let alone be an excellent destination! But it is superb and well worth the trip.

Strange experience. I went to a comedy night there. Paid to watch an American jew come to a Christian kingdom to attack the Christian religion. Quite strange considering the millions of Christians who died in the war fighting the nazis which were killing Jews. I have started writing my own stand up comedy routine mocking Judaism using historical facts regarding their religious origins going all the way through to when the people of Egypt rose up and kicked the hyksos out of Egypt which is when the hyksos then went on to become the Israelites, and finishing with punchline that even though they have their own religious state now bought for them by rothschild, they still insist on subverting Christian nations. In all good comedy clubs soon. That aside, venue was alright. They sell pizza. Bar staff were good.

The Tap Social is a great place in the Botley area that is really trying to do something different, and at the same time adding a great option to the entertainment options in the area. The beers available are really good as you would expect from a micro brewery, the space is open and huge and never feels overly crowded even on bust nights. There is also a permanent Pizza option now in the evenings, which is delicious with a proper woood fired oven. There is also plenty of parking in the estate should you need it, though cabs also come here to do pickups and drop offs.

We held my husbands 50th birthday party at The Blue Boar, Wantage and The Vaults mobile pizza van provided us with 80 artisan pizzas in 2 sittings, 40 at 6pm and 40 at 9pm. We weren’t ready to have 40 pizzas at 6pm but this wasn’t a problem for Kev and his team, who happily agreed to move the first sitting to 7pm. The van was parked up close to the pub and the pizzas were all cooked fresh at each sitting. We had 5 different varieties of pizza and they were amazing. We had friends who aren’t local who all told us how delicious these pizzas are. They’re not your bog standard pizzas, they really are something special. Thanks Kev and team. We’ll be coming for bottomless brunch soon.

Decent kebab van, friendly guys working there, they always remember my order even if I haven't been for months. Chicken kebab is decent quality, cooked fresh, good portion sizes too. Chips are not that good. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.
