Really friendly great staff & amazing food and drink selection- the only flaw is that it can get a bit busy (you can only order food at a table). Will definitely recommend!
Couldn't have picked a better place to book for our party! Lovely staff, lovely place and a great selection of drinks. We were made to feel so welcome and can't wait to come back!
Friendly, chatty knowledgeable staff, great selection of real ales & gins! Would recommend will visit again x
If you like drinking quality beer, and fancy drinking something out of the ordinary, in a place that is purely about the beer, then this is for you. Facial hair not esssntial.
Great beer, great atmosphere, great staff and even got us a taxi! Would recommend. Thank you!
Great bar....brilliant selection of Keg and Cask ales as well as wine and ciders. Nice vibe and booths where you can sit. Didn't sample the pizzas however looked fantastic and definite Beerd food. Sadly there was a group who were loud and obnoxious which did spoil the vibe however no reflection on the bar.
popped in yesterday afternoon on the fly .. had a pizza it was extraordinary ...
best pizza ever ...
cant wait for our next visit ... outstanding ... a must do if your in town
Friendly staff. Good beers and mulled wine. Highly recommended. I would definitely return on my next visit to Oxford.
Really nice pub nice music and the chips were one of the best I’ve had
Great selection of beer and food 😎
Speedy friendly people.
Fabulous pub. Very friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere.
We will be back ! X
I'm Italian and I must say: your pizza is great!!! Nice place and good beers! Well done guys!!
This place has done it right.... Good beer, great pizza..what more do you need :). We went to Oxford for the weekend and ended up in here both days :).
Great selection of craft beer, both cask and keg, Siren including and great authentic Italian pizza.
Recently reopened after a long hiatus, 6 ales a couple of ciders, and 30 + craft taps, you really are spoilt for choice here, more contemporary than before. Gone is the bench seating, and replaced with high stools. Hate high chairs in pubs, stools though, that's cost you a ⭐, nobody feels comfortable perched on a stool, especially after a few beers.
Great bar with 8 hand pull and 30 taps of ale, cider and lager. Nice old pub with nice decor in suiting with the pub facade.
Lovely pub with a real local vibe despite being right in the centre of Oxford! A great amount of options from staple beers like Moretti, Guinness and Amstel contrasted with an array of craft beers and ciders. The Fruju is definitely recommended for fruity IPA enjoyers. The bartender was lovely and let us try a couple of beers before deciding on what we would order.
There's a selection of games - cards, uno, backgammon etc. We enjoyed a bit of improvised 2 person poker.
Real homely vibe, would definitely visit again when I'm back in Oxford.
Another re-discovered gem. I remember this being the old West Berkshire Brewery pub back in the day. It was good then, now it’s stepped up a level. Great selection of drinks, the food looks amazing (annoyingly already eaten!) and the chap behind the bar (on his own!) smashed it. 👍🏻Knowledgeable and friendly and in complete control. Well worth a visit! 🍺
If you like a big range of cask and keg craft beers, this is the place for you! A beautiful long bar topped with a great range of cask and top taps, with an impressive row of at least 30 taps adorning the tiles on the back wall. Beers for every taste including sours, stouts and double IPAs. There's also some more well known top-tap lagers and ciders on offer too.
Staff are really friendly, the vibe of the pub is really nice on a Saturday, relaxed but bustling - sound track was a great mix of 80s, 90s and 00s+ pop, indie and rock.
They do vinyl requests too!
Great to see this old pub reopened after such a long time
Really friendly staff who helped us plan for the half marathon, delicious food and they gave me a Bao bun to try for free. The whole pub had a lovely atmosphere. We will be back!
Nice pub with good selection of beers and snacks. Seating at small tables or in cubicles. Order food at the bar. Menu is compact and food quality is good, servings are European sized and staff is friendly. Music on the Thursday evening was 80's soft rock. Nice relaxed place.
Popped in on their reopening weekend. Tried some of the taster plates they put out. Chicken wings were amazing. Massive variety of quality draft products, definitely spoilt for choice. Staff are friendly, chatty and knowagleable. Will definitely be returning..
Great pub lots of nice people and great music
Visited here on re-opening night in July, very good beer selection and the manager and staff were very friendly. One of the top places in Oxford to have a drink.
Update: Apr 2019. Reopened. Good selection of beers from their own brewery, guests, local beers and, one of my favourites Mena Dhu.
Refurbishment is in keeping and had brought back booth dividers. So far so very good...
Great, changing selection, range of beers. Friendly atmosphere.
Great drinks selection since relaunch. Knowledgable staff and lovely atmosphere. A real diverse craft beer pub that Oxford was missing.
Saturday night was rocking. Great music, great sing along, decent beer. Atmosphere was electric.
Wow!! Loads of great beers … great music on the turntable !! Great boozer!! Lovely staff !!
Really nice pub. Great beer selection and good food.
We've been coming here for a while, enjoy the atmosphere and the range of beers. The pizza is an added bonus. Beers from Siren, XT, Wild Weather on tap, large selection of cans in the fridge. For me, a non craft drinker there is always a decent lager, Sagres, Kosel and Mahou have all been on tap.
Nice selection of English beers and lagers, although a little bit pricey. We went just before the theatres were finished and it was easy to find a seat and table. But, as soon as the theatres finish the pub becomes packed, so be prepared!
Best pub in Oxford!
People should definitely pop in The Grapes to get a taste of great beers and drinks!
The best experience with the best personnel in town! Young people with lots of kindness and fin to share with customers!
