The Angel and Greyhound in Oxford

We booked a table as we were excited to see the changes made. There was no reservation however, we did not want to stay as it is now a sports pub with large screens and very noisy. Gone is the lovely comfy seating area at the front and the wonder photo of the organisation pub is partly hidden now! We shall leave this place to the students. Sadly

Unbelievable pub! Hard to find pubs like this in Oxford. Beer selection was great and all the staff were informative and helpful. I had the chicken burger which was the best I’d had in a long time. I’ll be back for sure!

Good music to add to atmosphere.

Stumbled upon this little gem whilst looking for parking in Oxford. A really excellent selection of Ales & Ciders all served by lovely, smiley staff. With a gorgeous pint of Porter & a packet of Pipers crisps for £5! It would be rude not to have more than one & we will obviously be returning very soon 🍻

Wow, love this place! Came back after a year and it’s completely changed from when it was under Young’s. Now it’s full of life, with amazing wall paintings on the building and such a happy, welcoming vibe inside. The food is delicious, went on a monday and my friend and I got the 2-4-1 and had really tasty burgers with really good quality and fresh ingredients. Staff is also super kind and patient even though it was a busy night. They definitely have the best beer selection in Oxford with over 40 beers to choose from and they offer tasters. Definitely worth a visit

Great atmosphere, lovely staff that went above and beyond to accommodate my allergies. Jade was particularly helpful. Will definitely be returning upon my next visit to Oxford.

We didn't stop. It was too noise

Top place, good atmo, lovely vibe, Johnny is also an incredible bloke, rest of the staff are great too.

Increíble pub, una gran selección de cervezas y sidras. Estábamos sentados afuera en el jardín de cerveza y es encantador con calentadores sobre todos los asientos que nos mantienen calientes. ¡Además Johnny es un Ledgend absoluto!

¡El recién renovado pub naranjas y limones es absolutamente fantástico! El personal es increíblemente amable, acogedor y servicial, haciendo de cada visita una gran experiencia. A mis amigos y a mí nos encanta venir aquí: la comida no solo es deliciosa, sino que también tiene un precio razonable, y ofrecen una impresionante selección de bebidas, tanto en el grifo como por la botella. Un saludo especial a Johnny, que ha sido especialmente útil y un todo - alrededor de la leyenda! El pub tiene un ambiente cálido y acogedor, por lo que es un gran lugar para cualquier ocasión. Además, sus ofertas estudiantiles son una gran ventaja! En general, es un pub de primera categoría que marca todas las casillas. Muchas gracias chicos!

Super expensive for poor portions! One caesar salad (literally two leaves with little chuncks of grilled chicken and a lot of mayonnaise) nearly 16£!!!just insane!

Visited in the evening of 24 Feb 2025. Bar staff more interested in chatting to each other than serving me. No visible bike parking out the front. Little atmosphere. Didn't eat and won't be going back to try. Note that a lot of reviews here are about this pub's much better predecessor - the Angel and Greyhound - so don't be fooled by any reviews before 12 Feb 2025 as they are about a different business with a different name. The Oranges and Lemons opened on 12 Feb 2025.

Great atmosphere and really great service. Johnny was outstanding.

Otras cosas aparte del nombre han cambiado; ahora hay 3 pantallas que muestran el fútbol en lo que es una zona bastante pequeña. Cuando visitamos las 7 pm el ruido era estupendo incluyendo música de pipa tan fuerte que no podíamos hacer conversación. Le pregunté a dos de los jóvenes si era posible rechazarlo un poco, pero obviamente no lo fue. Obviamente, los comensales/bebedores mayores no forman parte del plan para el futuro de este pub. La comida era buena y el personal amable, así que extrañaremos venir aquí.

First time visiting after being recommend by a friend, really lovely atmosphere. We were served by Jade, super friendly and couldn’t do enough for us! Will definitely be going back soon!

Wow what a pub. This place was awful under youngs, over priced no atmosphere and really poor staff. What a breath of fresh air, a great menu open bar area amazing refurb watched the football in on the tvs just allround a brilliant pub. This new company and the friendly new staff have changed this pub for the better.

A spacious pub with a warm, wooden interior. Very good beer too. The best thing of all are the welcoming, friendly and approachable staff; great service. Thank you

Cracking pub. Great selection of beers, great staff and a very cosy pub with a nice traditional fire. I believe they are closing in January for a refurb, can’t wait to see what’s install and return

Portions sizes were pretty poor for how much we payed. There was no cauliflower cheese. So we were offered a half pint. But the Portions were so small the free half pint didn't make up for it.

Very disappointed with this place. Rude staff especially the bartender

Since the change of ownership this lovely old style Oxford pub is surprisingly on a race to the bottom, it’s not to late to save it ! Start by Listening to your customers would help

The worst place in Oxford. Despite having a reservation, we were turned away and told to just sit in any place until someone else turns up with a reservation (???) the staff is so rude. I came here to celebrate a big day - but their behavior was so rude it was hurtful. They need to do better, at least have some manners in how to talk to someone.

Great beer, good food, very helpful staff, lovely atmosphere, excellent pub.

Excellent pint of IPA and seats available on an evening. Result!

Disfrutamos de nuestro tiempo aquí mucho! Nuestro grupo de cinco personas pasó por el puente después de un recorrido a pie por la Universidad y fueron recibidos con un personal acogedor y un ambiente acogedor, con espacios acogedores tanto por dentro como por fuera. Este fue el segundo día de cinco días en el Reino Unido, y a medida que probamos más pubs, el consenso entre nosotros fue que este fue el mejor de nuestro viaje.

Ok, la comida, pero sosa, llegó bastante rápido, sin embargo, las mesas eran pegajosas, los baños eran muy malolientes y sucios. El servicio era otra cosa, comida puesta en la mesa, sin contacto visual, nada dicho. Platos recogidos nada dicho, dijo cocina había cerrado a las 7. 45 si queríamos postre. Eso fue todo. Wow!

The Sunday roast was really bad I’m afraid to say. It’s been on my mind all day as to how bland and dad it was. Frozen food coked at its worst. Very unhappy 😫

La comida aquí es terrible lo peor que creo que hemos tenido en un pub. No hay habilidades culinarias aquí si es que tienen alguna. El puré es duro con si acaso mantequilla en él media zanahoria cortada longitudinalmente y dura como una roca Extremadamente básico aunque el costo es alto. Toma una copa allí pero no te molestes con la comida

Never been before although go into Oxford regularly. A gem, good food, atmosphere & great welcoming staff. Definitely will be back.

One of the nicest pubs in oxford! The owner is lovely and the place has such a comfortable vibe to it. They also run a pub quiz once a week which is fun to go to.

A huge place! We were on a Monday night and ale was only £3.50 then The bartender gave us a taste of the beers before we chose. The food is delicious - one of the best pub experiences we've had in Oxford

Great pub with an interesting history

What shame. The Angel has changed hands Although the staff are still lovely and, untill they pull it all out, it is comfy and attractive. However the delicious Sunday lunch has disappeared. The food used to be fresh, interesting and hand prepared. It now seems to be out of tins and pre-prepared and frozen somewhere hundreds of miles away. That would be fine if it wasn't so expensive!! Very sadly, I would find it very difficult to recommend a visit now

Un pub con un ambiente relajado con personal que está tan dispuesto y capaz de ayudar. Nada era demasiado problema para ellos y eran muy amables, amables y profesionales. Tuvimos un almuerzo dominical para 20 personas de todas las edades, gustos y necesidades. Todos fueron acomodados sin ningún tipo de alboroto o molestia. Pudimos disfrutar de nuestro día en un espacio privado que nos permitió movernos y conocer a la familia. Pre-órdenes funcionó un placer. -Muchas gracias.

Great service, good food and excellent atmosphere

Great food, lovely staff, good drinks recommendations!

Nicely appointed pub. Good beer, good food. Outside drinking areas back and front.

Great place, good food, staff very helpful. Would highly recommend.

Took a group of elderly people for lunch. We were made very welcome and served very well. The food was tasty and hot and reasonably priced. Only problem was that there is no accessible toilet on the premises but arrangements has been made with cafe a few doors away.

Booked the Angel and Greyhound for a private event and the staff could not have been more helpful. Nick was so accomodating with the food and drink, really excellent communication and follow-ups. I cannot recommend booking this place if you want a friendly, easy and tasty garden party.

Ambiente muy agradable y comida deliciosa. Realmente apreciamos el servicio prestado por gente joven y amable.

Very pricey £6.70p for a pint of larger.

Stopped here for a quick lunch with the family. Amazing dog friendly environment, great service and very tasty food. Our dogs even got some complimentary beef which they enjoyed. Definitely will be back.

Make sure you reserve a table a week in advance even if you are just going by yourself on Thursdays evenings. Often all the tables are reserved and you cannot find a place to sit.

Lovely little english pub with wintergarden. Loved it.

A party of 4 visited for Sunday lunch. Had been before and were happy with the food so thought we'd come again. However, we were very disappointed with the pork which was extremely fatty and what the meat was tough, the duck was not the best. Also, the greens were very undercooked. Sorry to say we won't be visiting again.

The chicken, gammon and leek pie was one of the best I’ve had. Vegetables were not overcooked and crunchy. Phoebe’s service was friendly and on point. Even better than the 5 star restaurant we went to yesterday!

Great staff and ideal place to watch the football. Food was good quality, very fresh and generous.

Great pub with friendly staff, good position and very pleasant traditional style & atmosphere. Easy to park nearby too. However, the food was very underwhelming.

Lovely spot in Oxford by boating hire, good atmosphere friendly efficent staff good food and drinks selection good value.

Good food and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. You can sit outside, inside and they have beer garden at the back of the pub

Great service from the bar staff really added to the delicious meal in such a lovely pub. Good food, great ambience and well looked after.

Went for a Sunday lunch, had the roast beef and chicken both were very good. Very generous portions, served hot with a delicious gravy. Will definately go again!

Traditional British food of the highest quality, along with exceptional service.

I recommend it to everyone, fish and chips, very tasty 😋

Great friendly service, great food and drinks. A traditional, popular and well-run pub with daily menus. Booking tables advisable at weekends.

We're so grateful to the amazing team here for our brilliant meal and very friendly, prompt service. Our party of six and 12 suitcases were happily accommodated with smiles and a 'nothing is too much trouble' attitude. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday roast and sticky toffee puddings. A quintessential English experience. Sincere thanks from a slightly frazzled group of Aussies 😊

Im confused with all the good reviews in reference with food or they have changed the chef! Dont recommend the Sunday Roast at all the chef needs to discover at least salt and pepper and understand how to make gravy correctly very poor I won’t mention the bland beef and roast potato’s was more like a hospital dinner. It would have been better to pour water on the Sunday roast than use the gravy would maybe have had more flavour then. The staff on the front was great and the place was relaxing recommend getting a better chef

Extremely dog friendly which is why I booked it, could not have been more welcoming! Looked inviting from outside, cosy atmosphere, beautiful Sunday roast, worth every penny, would definately return!

Nick and his team did a great job in providing a fab party environment, food and drink for our daughter’s 21st. Really helpful and relaxed staff, delicious party nibbles and the covered garden patio was the ideal space for a party of 25. Would definitely recommend.

Great, good value food and good service.

Great, good value food and good service. The whitebait and the bavette steak were delicious and the portions were a really good size. Delicious!

Great bar, good atmosphere and lovely staff! Their Sunday roast is really good!

Lovely lunch with child and dog here yesterday. Friendly and efficient service, a roaring fire and a good pub lunch. Would recommend to families who want a relaxed meal in an easygoing environment, although a separate children’s menu would make it perfect. As it was, we ordered our child some of the small plates, which she was very happy with. Dog snacks were available, which was a nice touch, and staff were happy to provide a water bowl.

Lovely atmosphere and right for the birthday lunch we had organised. Service was great, and food was hot when it came out to us. Williams definitely come again when visiting daughter at uni next.

Friendly efficient staff. Very tasty food. Very dog friendly, even had drink and treats table service for our dog! ;-)

Nice pub with amazing atmosphere and food, dog friendly as well!

Lovely pub. Friendly staff, good food and excellent service. Very dog friendly. Will definitely be back.

Lovely roast dinner and dessert with lovely staff. So kind to our dog as well bringing him a little snack and some water. Will definitely be coming back:)

The Sunday Roast was just right. We both had the beef. My wife and I are North Americans and old enough to remember the American and Canadian versions of Sunday roast (generally like the English, only without Yorkshire pudding). Lunch at the Angel & Greyhound brought back lovely memories.

Had a wonderful experience. Friendly staff, good food. I left my handbag there and within minutes Nick had phoned to let me know. Thank you for such honesty. Parking can be a bit tricky , but we'll worth it.

Nick was an absolute star. Standing outside in the rain, Nick invited us in and made us feel at home. The food was great and the beer tasty. Clean lines make all the difference. Great experience.

Was intending to go elsewhere but parked next to this pub, decided to check it out. I was very surprised to receive excellent food and service. Their food was amazingly in great taste and freshly made. The waiter was friendly and kind. We really enjoyed our time at angel and greyhound, and will want to visit oxford again.

Lovely Christmas decorations and nice to see two dogs allowed in there, nice food, nice atmosphere.

Celebrated my partners birthday here for Sunday lunch. Can't praise it enough. Food was excellent especially lamb roast. Nick and his staff helpful and friendly. All in all a brilliant time. Recommend to all.

Great pub but only thing that lets it down is the mountain of steep stairs you have to climb to get to the loo. Sounds trivial but after two trips it’s a pain in the buttocks. I have found myself and friends saying ‘Shall we pop into The Angel & Greyhound? No I can’t face those humongous stairs’. Fantastic staff and good atmosphere but a short stop rather than a place to spend a whole evening.

We are regular Sunday lunchers and this week was as good as ever with friendly efficient service, delicious food and this week the manager/owner would not take any payment for my dessert. Recommend booking as this pub lunchtime can be very busy with many customers enjoying the delicious food, great ales and faultless service. Highly recommended.

I went for drinks here with my friends and the service was great we were served by mione and it was great fun will definitely be going back as the Sunday roast was recommended

Very nice and cozy pub with lovely food. Loved the Sunday roast, we opted for a beef one and a pork one and both were really good portions and delicious. Good selection of food and beers. Service was great, Jason was very nice and helpful. Will happily come again next time we are in Oxford.

Amazing pub, with a cozy atmosphere, Dog friendly! The food is also delicious. The staff are very friendly and its not too busy waiting times for drinks or food. There is Live sport / amazing beer garden which i have visited in the summer months and enjoyed.

They know how to keep an excellent pint of beer! Look forward to trying the food soon.

One of my favourite pubs in Oxford, I'm a frequent customer - welcoming and warm atmosphere - great service - great food.

A lovely evening at this great central Oxford pub, which is traditional yet not boring. A relaxed yet thoughtful menu, with super attentive, friendly & welcoming staff, Jason Scott took great care of us. Highly recommend sitting by the fire, with a mulled wine & sticky toffee pudding.

Had a wonderful family roast here on Sunday. Great food, everything was spot on as usual. Lovely staff, great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

The food was excellent,staff were very busy still the food came out quickly didn't have to wait long and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us were so kind and helpful definitely be comming back again best Sunday Roast ever

Great tasting Sunday lunch but disappointing potatoes and gravy.

Went here for a roast dinner yesterday and almost cried at the price but thought must be worth it. Pub didn't open until 12 as they were running behind? When it came to the roast dinner, it looked delicious. Until I poured what you call a sorry excuse of gravy. I was horrified. It was flavourless. It wasn't worth £19.

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. It was my Mum & Dads anniversary and they kindly left flowers on the table for them. Thank you!!

Vegan roast wellington was a shapeless slop with nothing identifiable in it. Carrots raw. Worst Sunday Roast ever. Staff friendly and efficient. Room nicely decorated for Christmas and set out but cold.

Great little pub with friendly service and solid meals, good value would recommend.

A brilliant pub, all year round. Cosy indoors in winter (especially if you can grab a fireside seat) and there's a very pleasant outdoor seating area for warmer weather. Drinks are reasonably priced, as is the delicious food. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Ten out of ten!

Went with my mum for roast. Lovely day out, open fire and happy staff lovely pub dog also

Great service, Sunday roast and drinks. Mulled wine was lovely. Wife tried mulled cider and had a roast chicken. She said was also very nice. Will return.

Great Sunday roast and great service. Yorkshire pudding was an absolute winner

Great pub, amazing service and excellent food. Very dog friendly too 🐶 I highly recommend visiting!

Really enjoyed Sunday roast dinner! They happily made alterations for gluten sensitivity.

I really wanted to like this place, great location etc but the Sunday roast was just terrible. I’m not generally that fussy but half cooked vegetables and completely bland roasties. Nothing had any flavour at all.. maybe a new or inexperienced cook??

First time at the angel and greyhound - but certainly won’t be the last ! Great service, good food and looked after our little dog !

Didn't eat, just popped in for a pint. Nice pub, well kept beer. Would definitely visit again.
