The gluten-free chicken and leek pie was spot on. A proper find for a coeliac, and no extra charge for the GF menu.

Been coming here for years. The outdoor seating is always nice, especially when you&#39;re just off the train.

The food here is a step up from your usual pub fare. My fish and chips were pretty good, with a decently crispy batter. The service was a bit slow, but everyone at our table seemed happy with their meals.

The lamb and mint pie was good, generous filling. Sat outside which was pleasant. Service was attentive, though there was a bit of a wait for the bill.

Birthday dinner. Staff brought out the cake with candles and sang. Made it feel special for the family.

The cider-battered hake was decent, with a pretty good fish-to-batter ratio. The triple-cooked chips were fine, just could have been a touch crispier for my taste. The whitebait fritters were a nice, crunchy addition.

The drag bingo was such a fun way to spend a Sunday! The host had us all in stitches the whole time. Perfect for a laugh with friends.

George was a star. His wine recommendation was spot on and he kept the glasses topped up. Really made the evening.

Liah and Ruby were so sweet. They just had this way of checking in without hovering, you know? Felt genuinely looked after.

Been coming here for years. Staff always remember my name, ask how the family&#39;s doing. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. Food&#39;s decent, but it&#39;s the people that make it feel like a local spot.

Came for a midweek dinner. The sea bass was cooked nicely, and the veg tart was a decent portion for the price. Service was quick. Felt like a fair deal for what we got.

Nice rooftop for a quick drink. The view over Oxford is the main draw, especially when the sun&#39;s out. Got my pint in a decent time. Perfect for a fast stop.

Been going here for years. The fish and chips is always solid, and the pints are well-priced. It&#39;s just a dependable place for a quiet bite. Nothing fancy, but that&#39;s the point.

Came here for a birthday dinner. The staff were really sweet and made the whole thing feel so cosy, like a friend&#39;s place. That was the best bit. The food was solid, but it was the vibe that stuck with me.

The staff were really nice. They even sang for a birthday at the next table, which was a sweet touch.

Been coming here for years. The bar billiards is always a hit with the kids, keeps them entertained while we eat.

Ordered through the app, food came quick and hot. The place itself is just really nice to be in - good lighting, comfy seats, not too loud. A solid, reliable spot for a casual meal.

Been going here for years. Their sourdough pizza crust is always spot on - crispy and chewy. The weekday &pound;5 margherita is a solid deal, especially with the fresh basil.

Perfect for a pre-show drink with the O2 Academy so close. The garden is large, heated, and stayed comfortable on a chilly night. Exactly what we needed.

Love the Thai food here, it&#39;s a real surprise from the caf&eacute;-style front! The space is a bit narrow though.

The food was fresh and well-balanced, with plenty of healthy options. Good value for the quality of ingredients.

Came for a Christmas work dinner. The Cherry Bakewell cocktail was a standout. James and Sophie handled our large table efficiently. Food was decent, service was prompt. Good for a group booking.

Been coming here for years, and the wine list is always a solid choice. Good value, never disappoints.

The Fisherman&#39;s Cottage is a lovely little spot right by the water. The wooden beams and those big windows looking out at the boats really make it. Just a nice, relaxed place for a meal.

Emma was a great server for our first bottomless brunch. The whole vibe was really relaxed, just a nice spot to unwind for a couple of hours. We&#39;ll be back for sure.

The riverside garden is lovely. The outdoor heaters made it so cosy for a drink.

Been coming here for years, and it&rsquo;s always the same. That&rsquo;s why I keep coming back. The beer selection is spot on&mdash;they&rsquo;ve kept the same ales on for ages, and they&rsquo;re always pulled properly. Just feels reliable.

Birthday dinner for ten in the quieter section. The service was attentive. What stood out was the freshness of the ingredients&mdash;the greens in my starter were crisp, and the fish tasted just-caught. A lovely, simple meal.

Fran and her team are so lovely, really make you feel at home. It&#39;s the perfect spot for a relaxed catch-up with friends. The vibe is just right, not too loud so you can actually hear each other! Service was spot on.
