The atmosphere is great. The bartenders and regulars are very friendly and didn't shy away from a random conversation with a tourist. They made us feel very welcome which prompted us to go back the next day. I also enjoyed the food, it was very welcome after a decently long day in Oxford. They didn't have onion rings anymore but compensated with extra ice cream on the pudding.
An historic pub.. now I am worried in case the new owners Firkinise it as in turning it into a monstrous modern gastro pub with large screen tv and other vulgar additions..the pub does not need modernising it is part of Oxford history!!!!!
Shockingly empty at 6pm, but this meant service was super speedy. Unfortunately not a big fan of the Fanta flavour… I fell for the gimmick. Chips have also gotten crunchier I feel which is probably a pro for most people, but I miss when they were very mushy.
Este lugar estaba bien al principio, pero después de que había hecho con lo que pedí, saqué mi computadora. Una hora después, un tipo al azar vino a comprar y dijo que no puedo usar el enchufe - cualquiera que sea la razón de esa regla, claramente no tiene sentido dado que claramente no lo necesitaban y no podían vigilar la política en ningún sentido significativo. Luego 20 minutos después, alguien vino y dijo que no podía usar mi computadora portátil. tampoco tiene sentido dado que había un montón de mesas gratis, y dado que había estado trabajando allí durante tres días antes y nadie había dicho nada. básicamente reglas tontas que hacen que los clientes se sientan inoportunos. no volverá de nuevo.
i ordered a couple of shakes for me and my sister and they were delicious. the lady we were served by was welcoming and made the shakes which looked as good as they tasted. will be coming again
Unfortunately had a really poor experience here. Staff weren’t friendly whatsoever, you get charged more by approximately £1 per item for eating in?? Despite not being given any different service whatsoever than if you were to take it away? School dinner type trays, take-away unnecessary plastic packing. You have to pay extra for soy sauce and wasabi…dirty tables, seats all stained with soy sauce, toilets dirty. Certainly won’t be returning here nor any other Wasabi for that matter.
Went to get a drink from the bar. Person behind the bar tells me, "there's no service here". Confused, I asked them, "this is the bar, isn't it?" They replied, "no this is a sink area" and walked off.
We enjoyed a very fabulous lunch here on our visit to Oxford. Staff good, especially the front of house gentleman. Food well presented and very good. Would recommend a visit but probably make a reservation as quite busy.
The store's website said they had discounts, but the store clerk told me without any explanation that they didn't offer discounts, which made me feel uncomfortable.
Presentation: 2/5
Taste: 2/5
Service: 1/5
Value: 1/5
Overall: 1.5
Poorly executed franchise with staff who are aware website offers promotions withdrawn several months ago yet don’t raise to management, rather insinuate the website and customer are wrong. Totally obsolete customer service.
Would not recommend to anyone.
Nice little pub opposite a lot of busy attractions. I really enjoyed the interior but the tables outside would be perfect in better weather to watch people pass by.
Service was friendly and laid back. Beer was in good condition.
