The best restaurants serving British food in Oxford South East

Difficult to know where to begin - a hub of effortless cool and unpretentious loveliness for so many years - host to great music and exhibitions - with a wonderful buzz and fab staff - and social hub for groups from armchair philosophy to scrabble. Will miss it hugely and only wish the landlord would rethink. Huge thanks and appreciation for many memorable times.

Friendly and warm place. Will be coming back when next in Oxford. Also super dog friendly!

9/10 times a very good place to eat, except when you are fed a rubbery sausage that is unable to be cut with a knife and leaves you on the toilet. Cool atmosphere, I recommend.

Had the best time karaoke-ing!! The staff were so lovely and the atmosphere was fantastic :)

Lovely atmosphere, lovely staff and great location

Traditional village pub. Good atmosphere.

The staff were really nice and friendly. When I made several calls beforehand asking questions about the booking process for our Christmas meal, the person I was speaking to was really friendly and thorough in their explanation. The seating was nice and comfy although it wasn't exactly the best for our group to be divided on three floors (then it changed to 2 then back to 3). Food was lovely as well. Really lovely evening. Slightly bemused at being told from members of my group that there was a "Resident Crackhead" in the male toilets eating a sandwich.

10/10 service , friendly staff and excellent atmosphere, would absolutely recommend for a night out

Saw a gig here. Loved it. Such a great atmosphere. Small intimate, atmosphere. The place rocked

Wir übernachteten hier, wurden sehr freundlichen empfangen, bekamen ein schönes Zimmer, hatten einen netten Drink am Abend. Das Fenster konnte nicht ganz geschlossen werden....die Nacht war trotzdem ok, obwohl die Lage an einer Kreuzung laut hätte sein können. Das Frühstück war dann leider sehr enttäuschend: wir bestellten von der Karte Tee, Cereals und Eggs Benedict. Der Tee wurde gebracht, nach ca 20-25 Minuten bekamen wir die Eierspeise und fragten nach unseren Cereals: Die kommen jetzt, das muss immer zusammen aus der Küche kommen???? Das haben wir beide (mein Mann ist Engländer und ich reise über 50 Jahre lang dorthin) noch nie erlebt, dass die Cerealien MIT oder NACH der Warmspeise serviert wird. Wir bestellten somit die Cereals ab, denn dann wären die Eier kalt gewesen. Wir ernteten jedoch nur einen unverständnisvollen Blick! Nun gut, wenn das dort so ist! Die Eier waren gut!

Such friendly service! I enjoyed the Christingle seasonal pie with peas and mash. It was the perfect meal for a cold, drizzly day.

Last minute decision, googled restaurants nearby and Joe’s stood out. Menu varied enough and not ‘fancy’ We arrived with swarm greeting and shown to a table. Nothing rushed but service was good.I can recommend the Lamb and Sticky Toffee pudding , my husband the steak burger and cheese cake. Nice atmosphere and reasonably priced. The ‘parking’ was not as identified on my google map but behind the M&S food hall. Apart from that hiccup a really nice evening out. The waiting staff were amazing! Well done

Travelled up from South Wales to visit family. Booked here for lunch and we weren't disappointed. Lovely service, impeccably clean & lovely food. Thakyou for a lovely experience. Would definitely recommend this pub.

Attended for an event - just there for the day. Lovely interior decor.

Lovely pub, the gnocchi was really special and good range of beers
