Nice atmosphere with young ladies behind the bar ordered food come out some young lad with baseball hat and purple hair must of been on drugs went to 2 different tables before it came to mine had chat for 2 minutes at each table on way food came cold by the time it got to my table who interviewed these people hope the new landlord or land lady sort the pub out as it feels no one cares

Been here many times for breakfast, lunch, dinner and just drinks. The food is amazing quality at reasonable prices. The staff are incredibly friendly and fun! Really couldn’t ask for a better local, highly recommend this pub/restaurant.

Myself and friends went to the Midget on Easter Sunday for drinks/food. We arrived around 3pm , The pub was extremely busy -i think due to the bank holiday and football being on TV the bar was very short staffed, only 2 serving on the bar (I felt sorry for the staff working) We ordered food and was told there was an hour wait. Which was understandable due to how busy the pub was , we waited more like 1.5 hours for the food only to be served with a black burnt meal which was sent back to the kitchen are replaced with a cold served meal which was also sent back. I'm sure if the kitchen staff were to probe there dishes before sending out to the table this would have been avoided . I have to say it was a nice atmosphere in the pub but lack off staff over a bank holiday weekend is a managers error!

Waited around 20 minutes for food to come, but reflected that the veg was freshly cooked, plus several other groups had ordered just before us. The meals were hot, fresh, very tasty and generous portions. Besides the usual 'pub grub' there were some interesting different dishes, including Christmas offerings. Staff were friendly. Plenty of seating. Large car park. It is a 'sports' pub with loads of screens - just be aware if this isn't your thing. Though it was very unobtrusive at lunchtime.

Arrived for lunch (having booked online a week ago) to a member of staff who stated he "hadn't been told there were any bookings) and then a woman to say "you aren't planning to wat are you? We haven't got a chef". They had my contact details on the booking yet no one bothered to call and advise. There was no apology only "I've only just got here and been told, nothing I can do". AVOID

A rare sunny lunchtime caught them by surprise, so the pub was busy and they were struggling to provide a full menu. However, the staff and manager were super friendly and went out of their way to overcome their difficulties. Standard chain pub food (when available) but great service. Great outdoor seating in the sunshine.

Had to wait 90 minutes for two meals. The wait was bad, but the dishonesty about when the meals would arrive was the worst. After about 45 minutes I was told the meals were 5/10 minutes away. When I asked about 30 minutes later I was told one of the meals was actually ready, but the we didn't see the food until about 20 minutes later. If the chef had been honest about it we probably would have gone elsewhere. The reason they gave for slow service was that lots of orders came in at the same time. Lots of dinner orders around 7pm, absolute shocker! We did get a refund, and the food was tasty when it came. I've had a decent experience in the past, about a 40 minute wait, so was hopefully just a one off. Maybe better for just a drink, though.

15 members of the MG Car Club attended this morning for their all-day breakfasts and had a great welcome and wonderful service from the staff, facilities clean, food was plenty and so reasonable too, as MG nuts it was lovely of the landlord to bring out the old visitor book going back to 1977 for us to sign, a nice touch by him, and plenty of MG memorabilia throughout the pub. Would most certainly return and happy it is fully dog friendly as well.

Booked a table online two days before. Phoned the pub before we left and was told that food would be served until 9pm. We arrived just before 8:30 to be told that the kitchen was closed. We were planning to have some main courses and a couple of bottles of wine. We've eaten at Greene King pubs many times and it's usually pretty good. A shame.

I used to come to the Midget regularly but haven't been since I moved out of Abingdon about 10 years ago. We came here after a family funeral (booked in advance) and unfortunately my expectations didn't meet reality. When we went to eat the food (that was already out when we arrived) we found that some of the food items were still frozen/really cold to the point that even the least picky of the group didn't want to eat them. When other items on the table had gone cold by the time the last of us started eating it makes me think that the items that were (very) cold by the time we ate must not have been fully defrosted by the time they were placed on that table? I'm also pretty certain that some areas of the pub haven't had a refurb since the last time I was in there 10 years ago.... Sorry - but we won't be back.

I tried the soup of the day and a courgette side dish, and both were simply amazing. The soup was rich and flavorful, perfect for the season, while the courgette side was cooked to perfection, full of fresh taste and well-balanced seasoning. The service was prompt and attentive, and the atmosphere was relaxed, making for an enjoyable experience overall. Everything was well-prepared and exceeded expectations. Will definitely return—an excellent experience.
