The White Hart in Oxford

Visited here earlier this month, food was amazing and the staff were very welcoming. Wide selection of drinks as-well .

WONDERFUL INN/RESTAURANT.WOULD RECOMMEND.VARIETY OF REAL ALES.FRIENDLY STAFF AND VERY EFFICIENT. GOOD FOOD. DOG FRIENDLY.

Ordered Goat cheese pie with mash and gravy. Honestly the food was okayish. I didn’t find it amazingly scrumptious. Outside seating area is nice though.

Hidden gem in Old Headington. Fantastic food and service. Our familie's favourite.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Food and service are consistently great and this is now my favourite restaurant in Oxford.

Lovely summers evening drinks with food it was last min idea and was glad we had drunks amazing food and service was top Lovely young man max was excellent all rhe staff was lovely top service recommended highly shall be going again very soon...nachos us a must WOW rhe best weve had ever....x

Excellent garden pub. Exceptional BBQ ribs, really excellent pie. Excellent service.

We always enjoy our visits here, yesterday was up to the standard we've come to expect. Willow made some wonderful drink suggestions, that lemon spritz was delicious.

Post Wedding BBQ was held here after my nephews nuptials and it was brilliant. Our party was a mix of meat eaters, veggies, vegans and kids and all were well fed. We ended up staying all day in the garden as the weather was lovely and the atmosphere great. A large party of Irish, Scottish and English folks, there was a lot of drinking and singing done but the staff were good natured and attentive and helpful despite our descent on their wee pub. A few people had pies and burgers in the evening also and commented how good they were- alot of choice for non meat eaters. I'd recommend the White Hart though it is certain to be quieter without us 😊

Beautiful pub. My new favourite 😍

We have our BBQ here every year. Service is amazing. Dan and Adele especially are really easy to organise events and are extremely helpful on the day. Food is always amazing and we will definitely by using them again!

Very Tasty vegan chicken pie, one of the best I've ever had. Tasty mash and veg and good selection of drinks. Also a very nice beer garden in the summer. Friendly helpful staff on Thursday evening

Small but perfectly formed menu, great portions and decently priced with good service. A slight gripe is that the Steak & Kidney pie, though well filled and tasty, was either slightly overcooked or warmed up - the pastry seemed a little dry.

Favourite pub in Oxford, in a lovely part of Headington. Beer garden is a hidden gem and the pies are amazing. Will definitely be returning!

SLOW SERVICE 40 MINUTES GET THE PIES AS ORDERED.PIES GOOD BUT A LITTLE OVER PRICED. ONLY WITH A FEW OVEN CHIPS AND PEAS..BIG DOWN SIDE WAS 10% SERVICE CHARGE ADDED TO THE BILL. MUST HAVE MISSED IT ON THE MENU? WILL NOT BE CALLING AGAIN.

Table service and lovely pies!!!

Had so many great days and nights in the WH back in the 90s, great pub great food great beer.

Best pub in Oxford! Great food, always welcoming, great garden!

Stilton burger is best burger I have ever had. And I have had a lot of burgers. Keep it up. I'll be back. Ales are also good, and good guest beers. Beautiful garden, authentic front end, was frequented by famous philosophers like Stuart Hampshire and Isaiah Berlin.

Great pies. Good beers. Nice beer garden. What more can you ask from a pub?!

Really great food especially the pies

we love this place! We are currently in hospital with our baby… We try once a day as a family to get out and have some normality by having dinner Together, one of our nurses suggested we try Here it didn’t disappoint. We walked through your door and were greeted by two young members of staff, young lad and a girl (Sadly, I didn’t get their names) They made a fuss of our little boy constantly interacting with him and trying to make him giggle. when ordering the girl made incredible recommendations, my dad ordered a pie and couldn’t decide between chips and mash. She straightaway said I wouldn’t want to miss out on our mash. It’s incredible she wasn’t wrong. I’m always incredibly indecisive. I have three things I couldn’t choose between so she help me choose by saying again what I should go for. I went for the halloumi burger and it was delicious. Our baby is now weaning. He even approved the mash potato so it’s a win from us. We live far away when we discharged. We will most definitely make a trip again staff the food the atmosphere our 2nd to none. We attended on Thursday night whoever the girl was she deserves a real pat on the back to our little boy enjoyed the interaction with her and as he’s living in hospital this really meant the world to us!!! If we could give you 10 stars

A loverly meal great host and a good atmosphere 👌 👍 👏a lovely place to be

The White Hart is a hidden gem in Headington, Oxford, tucked away in a corner of the small borough. Came here for a Sunday Roast and had the roast beef. For the price £17.95, the quality and quantity of the food was exceptional, and service was quick and attentive. The roast beef came with cauliflower cheese, roasted parsnips and carrots, one huge Yorkshire pudding, a large quantity of veg hidden under a tender slab of beef. Was very happy with the meal and impressed with the management of the staff and vigilance. Only down side was the potatoes were rock hard and couldn't cut into them, so unfortunately had to leave them and would have liked more gravy but other than that our experience was superb and defiantly recommend.

Friendly pub with a very good pint of Guinness (best in Oxford!) and lovely staff.

Great value and a lovely pub. Will use again. Staff are great

Very nice pub with friendly staff. The food was very good. Fitted us in at very short notice. Only downside parking can be difficult. Would certainly go again if in the area.

I really suggest to go in this pub to try the traditional pie; they have a lot of delicious pie and good beer! The staff Is really kind, everything Is clean and the price are onesto! So, if you go to Oxford, you Need to try this pub!

Very decent local. I like their nachos washed down with tiger.

A very nice old pub. I only stopped here for a drink but they had a good selection of beers and a really nice atmosphere.

Lovely cosy old pub in Old Headington. Really nice food, service and atmosphere.

Couldn’t fault it - made to feel welcome as soon as went up to the bar, was offered tasters of the beer and the food and service were excellent.

Best pie I've ever had. Staff super friendly and great beer selection too, will be coming back for sure

Went Xmas eve friendly staff excellent service serve delicious pies here definitely best pub in Headington oxford love the atmosphere in here

As usual wonderful food, beer and service

Very nice service. Booked for my work’s Christmas lunch and we were very well served. The variety on the menu e good and decent price.

Nice traditional village-style pub with iron stove fire. Lovely staff and environment. I had the chicken, ham leek pie which was good. The food presentation could be better, it was plopped on top of an excessive mound of mashed potatoes. Otherwise a nice lunch.

Had the wild mushroom pie with mash. It was wonderful!

Fantastic service, warm and welcoming. Delicious pies 👍🏼

Great local pub, friendly staff, great food. Warm family atmosphere.

Always a lovely time here, always a great selection of drinks in a beautiful old building.

Ce lieux est le MEUILLEUR lieux sur Oxford je crois que je n'ai jamais vu mieux même ayant voyager dans plusieurs pays et plusieurs villes. Les serveurs sont sympa, accueillant, bienveillants et efficaces et les décoration sont magnifique. L'ambiance est MAGIQUE et il y a que de la bonne humeur 🥰😁

Great atmosphere, such a friendly team and 'pies to dies' for...

The proper traditional pub you're looking for.

Splendid old fashioned pub with great pies. The garden is beautiful and a must to visit in the summer. Been here many time and always happy to come back.

Always a warm welcome at this treasure of a pub. We're so lucky that we live in walking distance. Service is excellent, definitely worth booking if you want to eat. Food is always good and plenty of people visiting so there's always a nice atmosphere. Prices are what to expect in Oxford for a very well run pub. We like the pub garden in particular as we stop off during our dog walks.

Lovely rural pub, pleasant and helpful staff. Nice food and a gorgeous pub garden! It’s a shame they don’t have a car park as trying to find appropriate parking where you don’t have to risk a ticket was difficult but I would say it’s worth the trip and maybe a little walk depending on where you park.

Krásný zážitek v typickém anglickém pubu s krásnou, stromy stíněnou zahrádkou. Dal jsem si žebra a byl jsem maximálně spokojený. Manželka měla salát caesar, který nebyl top (opět potvrzení, že doma umíme lepší), ale snědla ho s chutí.

Kasey is the best barmaid in Oxford and hosted our family at White Hart with class! Highly recommend for those with discerning tastes.

Excellent pie and mash, and a lovely beer garden!

We always have our department parties here

Good food especially pies. Service quite slow when we visited. Good range of beers. Comfortable and welcoming.

Will be going back to check out the rest of the award winning pies! Delicious Surprisingly big garden too Staff weren’t exactly rude but I wouldn’t describe the two that served us as friendly either

Bar staff slow and quite oblivious to any sense of urgency. Ordered a Guinness and it wasn't left to rest: The basics are being overlooked here. Didn't eat and wouldn't eat since the initial reception gave me the impression I could be waiting a very long time.

5 we had a very good meal and a good evening join in the quiz staff were good and the food was 10/10 excellent from dave /trevor and serena well done DAN AND CAROL SEE YOU SOON DAVE FROM KINGS ARMS BUT LEFT NOW ..

Would be nice to have the tables wiped in the garden otherwise very good food and service

Great pub food in a scenic location

The best place I found around JR hospital until now too have a recovery after a hard shift truly appreciate

A lovely place to grab a pint or a plate of scrumptious food. Would definitely recommend coming here! Service was wonderful and they were happy to host a party of 12 at quite short notice. Thanks!

They have my favourite beer! Longhorn. Thumbs up

A quaint pub right beside the hospital. Wonderful place to read a book or have a chat with friends. Highly recommend the outdoor garden, if it’s sunny.

What can I say first visit to the pub and the food was more than amazing simply the best comes to mind. Thank you will be back again

Good food and choice (pies are the speciality), probably one of the best hidden beer gardens in Oxford. Friendly and efficient staff.

Big up my guy Dan Smaje. The club sandwich went hard.

What a lovely place, food spot on staff and landlady brilliant

Very good pub... cozy nice beer nice beer garden.. good friendly staff... can't complain about anything.. it's a good place to have a pint in the sunshine..

I had the steak and stilton pie with mash and peas. The pie was okay the silton was Very overwhelming the mash wasn't the best at all the peas and gravy was nice. The service was okay until she asked how the food was and me and the group I was with told them about the food they didn't seem to happy with the comments as one of the party had chicken ham pie with chips and left half. The beer garden was lovely busy lots of tables.

Lovely place. It's difficult to understand from outside how spacious the pub is. There is a wonderful garden area at the back. Indoor and outdoor seating both available. One of the few pubs in the locality. And the locality is beautiful. It's on a beautiful stretch of road. I liked the ambience. Decent crowd. I tried their craft cider which was delicious. I haven't tried the food but my friend says the pies are yummy. So, definitely will try that next time.

Me and the misses had pie chips and peas, pie was very very tasty. Staff polite and friendly, a proper pub with proper good beer too.

Pies overcooked, not worth £16 ++each and bill of £220, 6 adults 4 children

Lovely place! Delicious Roast Lamb!

Really good food! And good service

Lovely pub with a:great selection of beers. We did not eat there so I can't comment on the food but it looked good.

Amazing pub the food was amazing especially the ribs me and my family and friends had an amazing time eating in the beautiful garden there is nothing I can say that would make this place any better definitely want to go back

Incredible garden, not only large but a real sun trap. Decent selection of beers on tap and great pies. Small inside if the weather isn’t so good and hard to park nearby as there’s a lot of permit only areas.

Friendly staff good range of beers nice beer garden to the rear

We had our engagement party at the White Hart at we couldn’t have asked for more. Dan was very helpful answering my questions whenever I rang and Lucy was so helpful on the night, she organised everything for me and was so accommodating, even letting me play my playlist through their speakers. The sharing platters they made for us were perfect & nothing was too much trouble. We couldn’t have asked for friendlier staff or a nicer atmosphere for our party.

Nice pub, food was good! Went on a Wednesday evening and should have booked actually as it was quite busy!

Great pies . Great service.....and the club sandwich is huge ! Eaten here many times now

Have usually visited in the summer for the beautiful gardens, but found out it's also great for a warming pie on a rainy evening. Recommend!

Great Pies, marvellous beers, terrific service. We came as a group of 8 plus a baby and they immediately made room for us. The place is very busy but the drinks and food were served very quickly. As a man with great experience of pies (draw your own conclusions), this was probably one of the best I've ever had. I had the steak and stilton pie. We will definitely come back. Lovely garden too.

Excellent service from the very attentive staff. Lovely food especially the pies!

Lovely pub with friendly bar staff. If you’re going for drinks, you’ll have a great time. The food however was a rip off. The pub prides itself on serving ‘traditional pies’, but for £16 each we were presented with a reheated Pieminister pie (their menus exactly match! - you buy them in supermarkets), oven chips and peas. This feels dishonest.

THE BEST SUNDAY ROAST If you want an example of pure and the Best British Sunday Roast lunch look no further than this beautiful example of a great pub. Staff are wonderful, friendly and attentive. I wanted to Lick my plate !! But remember to book as the white hart is popular and busy . Ignore all the medical chat as it’s the closest pub to the John Radcliffe hospital so inevitably it’s a magnet for all of those wonderful people who work there

Such a well run, attentive pub with a good selection of ales and tasty, if basic (but that's okay) food. Well trained staff who communicate with you!!

The staff member was very friendly and welcoming. However I ordered the ham, eggs and chips with beans. By the time I removed all fat off the ham there wasn't much left to work with. It was also fridge cold together with the beans and Luke warm chips. Unfortunately the sunny side up egg was hard and over cooked. The venue appears to be clean and tidy just so cold. I had no problem parking directly outside the front door for a week day lunchtime trade. I think this would be a good place to visit in the summer when the evenings are brighter and warmer.

Great pub in Old Headington, very congenial, great staff, great pub pies and a selection of quaffable ales from Everards on offer.

Nice atmosphere, and great service. Lots of choices on draft, and the mulled wine was delicious. But the food was wanting and overpriced. These are just frozen Pieminister pies, you can buy them from most grocery stores for £4. Add some peas and mashed potato and this pub charges £15.95. The burger patty fell apart, it was basically just mince, the fish fingers on the bap were frozen, processed, generic ones, and everything was a little salty. It’s a nice pub for a drink, but we probably won’t be back for dinner.

Nice friendly pub, great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning

Local pub with friendly atmosphere

What a good find. Meeting up with friends in Oxford we took a punt on this pub for a Christmas meal. Glad we did, staff and locals super friendly, great atmosphere in there. Adele couldn't do enough for the kids. Food was great, pies very tasty, full roast immense. Had a plum porter on tap, that was good too. Prices reasonable, for a good meal. Thanks for hosting us!

Great food. Lovely space . Super attentive staff. Excellent beers. good prices. Many doggos. 10/10 would recommend. Brillliant.

Nice and cosy pub with sunny garden at the back

Visited this lovely pub for lunch in the garden during the warm summer weather. Heard that they do an amazing variety of pies so decided to return with a friend to try them. We had booked a table, and so we arrived on time, 7pm. Friendly service, and a very short wait for the food. Both my friend and I chose pies, one with salad and the other with fries and vegetables. I had thought that the pies were all home made but I have to confess that I had a similar pie in another chain pub so I suspect it had been bought in. It was ok, nothing special. The ambience was good, the staff friendly, and there was parking almost outside when we arrived so easy to access. I will return but maybe will choose something else next time as the pie offering was underwhelming.

Booked ahead for a Sunday roast. We were served very quickly and the roast was delicious! Very reasonably priced too

We held our son's first birthday at the White Hart after a blessing ceremony at St. Andrew's church and it was a great experience. Lucy and the rest of the staff were great, ensuring that we had all we needed throughout the day and giving us a big space for our guests to mingle. Could not recommend it enough for any event! Thank you Lucy, and the rest of the White Hart staff for a great day!

Very nice please to spend some hours with good friends

Best pies, best garden, best team. Best beer. Our favorite place.

Nice establishment in Old Headington. Lovely garden on warmer days
