This was one of the best Sunday Roasts I have ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection. I look forward to returning next time we visit the area

Such a lovely place to enjoy a good beer on a cold and wet evening. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting together with the usual great service by a dedicated team of staff. Landlord Jimmy is currently on holiday and he was definitely missed this evening. See you all very soon 10/10

Wow!! Just wow!!! After months of saying that we needed to visit we finally came in for a roast today, all I can say is yes, it is the best roast in oxford, in fact the BEST roast I’ve ever had anywhere! Big portions, fresh vegetables and the most amazing cauliflower cheese! The staff were lovely and friendly and very welcoming, if you haven’t tried here I would 100% recommend.. the complimentary after dinner shot is also an amazing gesture!! Looking forward to coming back 🙂

Discovered by chance while walking the dog. Everyone was very friendly and polite, nice atmosphere. Great beer garden and the food was excellent. There are also vegetarian and vegan dishes! Unfortunately we didn't discover the pub until our last evening in Oxford. Otherwise we would have come more often. Just around the corner is a large green area with lots of sports opportunities and exercise for the dog.

We were bought here for a Sunday roast to celebrate our 21st anniversary and I must say this was the best Sunday roast we’ve ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection! The parsnips were lovely and the plate was piled high with meat, potatoes and veg. My husband isn’t a fan of roasts but this won him over and even he wasn’t grumbling! After our roast we rolled ourselves into the back garden and sat in peace and quiet and relaxed with a drink. The garden is a beautiful little haven. Will definitely be back again.

Always my favorite place. I've been visiting the marsh harrier since 2021 and i wouldn't go anywhere else. The food is UNREAL (especially the sunday roasts) and everyone i've introduced to this pub says the same. No complaints. The garden in the summer is so beautiful, especially with their new bar!

Me and my partner went for a Sunday roast today which was lovely. When we were almost finished with our food the server came round and removed our plate of sauces and immediately set it down on a table next to us who had just received their food…without changing the contents of sauces or teaspoons…then continued to do it again with another group. For a pub that has lots of potential, this unhygienic turnaround was very disappointing.

We were staying in the area and found this after some searching and decided to check it out because of the pictures of their outdoor area. We were immediately greeted and asked where we wanted to sit and given menu’s/instructions on ordering. We got some drinks, burgers and fish and chips. The service and food was excellent, everyone was attentive and the experience was nice. They had a huge TV outside with the football game playing with a nice vibe they created with their set up. Loved this place.

A wonderful time had by all. We had Sunday lunch. The food was wonderful. Served quickly. A choice of lamb, beef, chicken or all three. Everyone also gets a Yorkshire pudding. We spent the afternoon sat in the huge garden at the back. Well spaced out tables. The atmosphere was wonderful. We sat at the back under the willow tree. Wonderful. Jimmy, the owner is a saint. He really wants you to enjoy his hospitality. The warm welcome and brilliant staff make for an unforgettable experience.

Have passed many times wondering about the claim of being the “best British roast” and now I have been - I think it’s a fair claim! Busy as expected on a Sunday but they managed to squeeze us in without a booking. Lovely service from all of the staff. Went for the lamb roast and it was absolutely delicious, each bite was packed full of flavour. Generous portions, I couldn’t finish it all. (The photo doesn’t do it justice as there was even more lamb under the Yorkshire pudding) the tiniest criticism I have was that the cabbage lacked in flavour, but honestly this is as close to perfect as you could get for a roast. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back!

For me, the key to a good night out at a restaurant or pub or similar organisation is firstly the personnel and secondly the quality of the food and drinks. In this instance, Leo at the bar was outstanding. A wonderful host, prompt and efficient and witty and extremely gracious and warm. Good on 'yer, mate! By the way, the chips he served us were among the best I've tasted anywhere, any time.

We decided to pop down for Sunday lunch so glad we did it was honestly the best Sunday lunch we have had in a very long time. The restaurant was packed but they made the service look so efficient, we both ordered roast beef and did not wait long for it to come there was so much and absolutely delicious. The staff are just so lovely it was just a pleasure to be there. The cucumber and rose gin was just yummy am on the search to buy a bottle now. We loved it so much we have just booked for ten of us for my husbands birthday. Thank you all for such a fabulous afternoon :)

Ownership of this pub changed a few years ago. As someone who rather hoped a new landlord would do something significant to the place, in 2023 it still seems in a weird limbo. Its still a good pub though with a large garden area out the back. Food is good as is the beer selection. Perhaps if it ain't broke...

Staff and general atmosphere great. But, the fish and chips I had was awful which is why I left behind most of the frozen chips and the limp, damp batter, even the peas were old tasting as was the portion of small fish (not cod). There are chippies nearby which eclipse this at half the price and they use actual real potatoes to make real chips, come on why is this so hard!? Don't mind paying a bit extra if a meal is good but not if it's just cobbled together from frozen ingredients and then they have the audacity to charge £17 pounds (some of us know how to cook you know). Really poor meal at any price. Everything else is fine and lovely garden.

Update to prior: nipped in with the dog and a friend after my previous visit on the same day. Service was quite possibly the worst I've ever received, point blank refusal to offer a taster of a second ipa after trying to decide which of the options was more palatable. Would strongly recommend you dont set foot through those doors. Just popped in for a quick drink, really lovely garden. Didnt eat so cant comment regarding food menu looks good and will be heading back to try especially the Sunday roast.

Staff is welcoming and nice, beers and drinks in general are a good deal. Food is not up to any standard. The "fresh dough wood stone baked" pizza is frozen and rehited in the electric oven. Tasty frozen pizza, but £10 for it is a robbery. The chicken wings plate (don't remember the exact price, but something like £5.5/£6) consists in 3 flavourless chicken wings and some arugola in the middle. Won't eat there again and don't recommend it. Very pricey for the quality and amount of food. Pretty disappointed.

This is a nice little pub tucked away in Oxford. We went there for an after exam lunch with 15 to 20 ppl. We got there a bit early which stressed the owner out to begin with. Once tables were clear they were promptly cleaned and we were seated. The food came out nice a quick and was OK. The dessert looked good. But there was a lack of gluten free or dairy free dessert.

An accidentally long walk ended here and quite frankly we'd have eaten anything at that point. We were however very glad we collapsed on the doorstep as the Sunday Roast was excellent. Exactly as advertised, not overly fancy, just a wholesome, hearty Sunday roast with several options and very large portions (special mention to the generous gravy pour, something often lacking from a pub roast these days). Very nice selection of beer, too.
