As visitors from Oxford we left the choice of venue to our 92-year-old host. She got it it spot on. There was no trouble parking in the huge car park of an ancient building with all the nooks & crannies, beams & uneven flooring anyone could hope for. A good old village pub full of atmosphere and original features. My eye was immediately taken by the row of four hand-pumps at the bar (taps for the modern beers were on the other leg of the compact 90º serving area) covering a range of Marston's ale;. Breakspears' Oxford, Wainwright's Lake & Courage Directors included, so a hard choice. Mine was a well-kept pint (curse drink driving laws ). We ordered food at the table from a good choice, although just the haloumi burger or curry for the veggies. Being a quiet Tuesday lunchtime it came relatively quickly and all at once. Served politely and attentitively it was a sight to behold: generous portions, well-cooked and delicious. Only one of us managed to clear our plates due to the amount stacked on them. Sadly, no room for desserts. The prices were very reasonable too and that made for a good value meal. Very satisfying all round. Next time we'll have to come for beer and desserts in the sunny garden. It's good to see that an ancient village establishment can retain its character while becoming a genuine gastropub.
