The New Oxford, Bexley Square, Salford, M3 6DB in Salford

Old school favourite of a place. Nice bar staff.

Best pub in Salford. Great cask ale

Janey Mac that's a pricey Guinness.

Brilliant place for meeting friends. Drinking and being merry

Very tasteful refurb, still a superb selection of beers, but please turn off the screens when not in use. TVs are ruining the social fabric of our pub world.

The bartender with long hair and a beard provided a disappointing experience. His demeanor came across as unprofessional and rude, which negatively impacted the atmosphere. I hope management addresses this to ensure future patrons feel welcomed.

Spoilt for choice of beer here (and also Sports channels) - check the boards to see what’s pouring. If in doubt the knowledgeable bar staff will assist. Well worth seeking out - only 5 minutes from Salford Central.

Great pub, with a big selection of Belgian beers

Fantastic pub. Extensive back bar with lots of whisky, multiple guest ales and some of the best Guinness you’ll find outside of Ireland (although the head in one of my photos was slightly to big, it was still superb). Sport on the tv, but doesn’t distract from the craic. Staff always quick with their service. Really good.

Lovely place. Friendly staff. Toilets were very clean. Some wicked memorabilia. Decent Guinness.

Proper old school British pub with history and atmosphere.

Great long weekend in Manchester, ended up here every night. Great choice of tap beers and others.

Super fun atmosphere with lots of locals and music.

Great selection of real ales. Massively refurbished earlier this year, it's very stylish and modern niw but still feels like an authentic pub.

One of the best pints of Guinness you will find!

Went I at a dinnertime quite very smart inside and very attentive bar staff. But a little on the expensive side.

Service and quality all good - but very expensive compared to similar in the area.

Maybe, the only pub in Manchester that has weissbier. The atmosphere was great, but I can't talk about the food, as I didn't get any. The live performer was great 👍

Cracking pint and love that they still do deals and offers (Guinness and an Irish whiskey, what’s not to love?).

Great pub a must visit , plenty of choice

Stopped off for a nice IPA. Dog friendly too so a nice half hour spent. Bar staff nice and friendly which is always a bonus.

This place was recommended as somewhere to find Belgian beers in the area. When opening the door I was surprised to find this is a proper raw locals pub, complete with DJ and birthday party playing pop music, with locals handing out birthday cake! Enjoyed the DJ shouting out my 10% Belgian beer. Surprising, yet charming.

Lovely traditional pub in Salford. Amazing selection of beer from keg cask and bottle. If you’re into belgium beers you’re in luck. Friendly service. Outside seating. A short walk from city centre. Recommended. 🍻 🇧🇪

Best selection of continental beers in Manchester both on draught and bottle. Huge selection of all spirits. Great variety of bar snacks. Lovely big beer garden in a nice area.

Great selection of beers and wine. Knowledgeable staff and a friendly service

Visited as part of work event which was interrupted by rain! Great guiness, also many special ales including Erdinger dunkel! Plenty of screens to watch sports. Good old fashioned atmosphere retained. A top boozer but keep it quiet we don't want everyone marching in!!

Great pub,bar staff pleasant and helpful.

Very good bottle selection, friendly atmosphere

Great pub, lovely clean and tidy with good service and a friendly. More importantly the beers are great, great variety. I really enjoyed the experience.

We didn't eat anything. Ali is a place with a beautiful garden for sitting on the square! The staff is extremely friendly

Good feel to the place, nice atmosphere. Authentic with good character.

Really lovely pub, especially since the renovations! Unfortunately the prices make me wince and wonder it pubs will be around much longer. A fair few of the beers on tap are between £7 & £7.50 a pint

Great pub with great choice of ales and craft 🍺 🍺 🍺

Lively atmosphere and staggering range of beers to choose from. Well worth venturing out from the centre of Manchester to visit it.

Great pub. Amazing selection of beers and lagers. Table service outside when it's nice. Set in a very historic area. A pub not to miss If you visit Salford

I do like the refurbishment as its not only re-oriented the bar area as well as creating a more stylish interior. I like it. Anyhow, still keeps a great range of beers and a fine selection of bottle Belgian beers.

Somehow never been in this pub before, despite only being a few minutes walk round the corner from my work. Turns out it’s great! Great beer, staff, fixtures and fittings etc. Cheers!

Busy pub located in a nice little square with loads of outdoor seating.A good selection of ale is on offer if a bit on the pricey side, would visit again though.Also live sports on the telly.

Fantastic Bar, great atmosphere was staying in a hotel locally nice little find Great Gin choices

Staff very friendly Lovely Atmosphere

Nice refurbishment and great selection of Cask ales 🍻👍

Great boozer. Excellent selection of drinks. Nicely renovated. The solo staff member was outstanding at a busy time. Guinness and a rare dram for £10 is a good deal too.

Looks great after the refurb. Great section of drinks, convivial atmosphere!

Recently had some renovation work done and the results are very pleasing on the eye. Fantastic selection of beer and very friendly service. Fantastic location in Salford, well worth a visit, you won't be disappointed.

The best pint of Guinness outside of Ireland!

Heard they serve the best Guinness in town. They do! A lovely pint of Guinness and a packet of Guinness crisps. The place has recently been redecorated and looks great. Staff were good too

Lovely traditional pub for beer lovers. 15+ casks and kegs on at any given time.

Absolutely appalling customer care, in this venue myself and friends have suffered homophobic attacks, predation by old drunken men that are absolutely out of control in the venue and drunks trying to start fights. Avoid at all costs.

Great pub with a fantastic selection of beers. Just closing for a refurb but expecting to be open again mid-Feb. Well worth a visit!!

Pros: Great beer selection! Great location! Dog friendly! Cons: No food - only crisps. Service is geared toward locals only. If you’re a tourist or not a Brit, you won’t feel welcome here. Fruit flies in abundance. Kept swatting them away.

Incredible old-school pub As great as city centres are, I often wish for a traditional pub to have a few drinks. Thankfully someone recommended the New Oxford to me and I'm so glad they did! The New Oxford is the epitome of what a pub should be, great selection of drinks, good craic and welcoming for all. The pub itself whilst small, packs an impressive selection of beers on tap, from a wide variety of breweries, as well as an good selection of Belgian Beers (which are not for me, but it's great to see the offering for an otherwise overlooked beer). The staff were attentive, polite and knew how to pour a proper pint. You can also tell they look after the lines, glasses and kegs, something which many pubs overlook. If you're in Manchester or Salford, I couldn't recommend stopping in for a pint enough - well worth a visit! Keep up the great work!!

Amazing pub for quality beer however £6.50 for a guiness or a staropramen is a bit ridiculous!

Amazing place to drink with friends, lovely staff working there.

Nice little pub with a large selection of beers, especially Belgian strong beers.

Best selection of beers in town

Great friendly real ale pub. Amazing selection of real ales, friendly staff and friendly atmosphere

The Guinness was good, however was a bit pricey!! Historic pub in an old square. Large range of real ales and pleasant enough but wasn't very busy. Think maybe would be busier if not so pricey!

Busy Friday evening session. Pub eas buzzing. However, only one poor barmaid running the entire show. She was working flat out. The range and quality of beers was excellent as always.

Really nice and quiet place. Good selection of Manchester beers.

Judgemental and hostile locals. Posh southerners trying to make my birthday weekend uncomfortable with no reason other than an attempt to grab power from a lonesome yung city kid, aka bullying. Selfish and pitiful really but I don’t acquiesce my power that easily. Furthermore look at their responses to the lowest rated reviews, serious antagonistic issues, serious complex, you’re in salford mate pipe down ya wrongens.

Highly rate New Oxford! Always great vibe and decent prices for the area.

Great choice of beers, atmosphere and venue

Love this little pub. Nice atmosphere. Amazing range of drinks!

My favourite pub in Manchester, friendly place, nice atmosphere, best one to go for a nice pint!

Far too expensive!! We popped in here for drinks after work. £13.40 fir a pint of Estella and a single gin and tonic! Too expensive for this area. I am a Salfordian and would NOT visit this bar again! We went on to get a drink n the Kings Arns across the road and only paid £10.50 for the same round. Come on New Oxford remember where you are! No wonder this bar was empty! Not recommended. What a shame when this used to be such a good bar.

Been in a around Manchester a handful of times but first time visiting Salford area, old school little pub, great seating outside lovely pint and staff

Fast becoming my favourite pub in Manchester let alone Salford. Amazing cask lineup and the outside seating on a warm evening feels positively European.

A great pint of Guinness (quite expensive though) after a recommendation from Niall, although very tempted to try the many other drinks on offer. Nice seating area outside and welcoming, relaxed atmosphere. It was my first visit but certainly not the last.

Great place with a massive selection of quality beers and a massive outdoor area to catch the sun

Charged me £3.20 for half a lemonade. Challenged them, and they said that was correct. 🤯

Great beer selections in an excellent location!

Great little pub for a few drinks and music on the juke box

Great little pub, surprised by how much choice of beer there was.

Such an amazing seelction of beers particularly strong on belgian

Great place, well kept Ale and plenty of choice, even bottled foreign beers. Staff are friendly and they have a large outside drinking area

Great range of real, cask and bottles with a great selection of Belgian Beers

So many choices of beers great atmosphere

Friday evening drinks. Small pub, but the beer selection is out of this world. Good seating and tables. Proper pub, just like they used to be, and just like they should be. Authentic pub toilets with comedy condom machine - a rarity.

This is a legendary pub that has been part of the Manchester/Salford scene for many years. You won't find a better choice of real ales in the area. Indeed, the Midlands is probably next stop if you want to match it on beer.

Great place, crazy landlord, but quite expensive. Yes it's changed. It's won another award

A great locals place with a beer range better than all in the area. A bonus is its great Belgium beer range - some on tap but mainly in bottles. The rating would have been excellent but for the foul mouthed drunken Irishman at one end of the bar. Losing a star for a customer, you say ? No, he is the landlord.

I was going through an emotional time with my twin sister and then was refused drinks. When I asked why, they told me I was too drunk?? I said bye and the guy with long hair behind the bar told me to ‘fuck off’. Awful service. Will not be returning.

Great pub for craft, Belgian and continental beer.

Called in for a quick drink extremely friendly staff and I had a pint of cider which was well chilled

One of the best selections of beers you will find anywhere in the North West. Great service, plenty of outdoor seating, great pub 👍

Amazing place great bartenders a bar like no other everyone should go there to experience it

Great boozer especially on a summers night

Nice place shame about the prices

Nice enough pub in a good location, had some nice real ales on tap.

Absolutely shocking service, beer was clearly flat and bar staff wouldn’t change the pint, most unusual for this place

Cracking pub with an outstanding beer selection and a decent jukebox too

most extensive collection of Belgium beers ive come across to date

Excellent pub, great staff - welcoming and friendly, good knowledge. Fantastic choice of beers, gins , rum ! This is my favourite go to pub when meeting friends for a catch up , always a great atmosphere!

Great choice of beer very friendly atmosphere and true salt of the earth landlord and managers and team

Had the best time on Sunday 30 April with the amazing DJs on in the backroom!!

Great range of ales in this traditional pub with outside seating area in the historic Bexley Square

Great selection of beer. Including lots from Belgium.😋

Great pub great beer what more do you want

Traditional pub, good atmosphere and good choice of beers, staff are the best you'll get anywhere, brilliant team.

Lovely atmosphere on St Patrick's day
