Duke's Cut, Oxford

Visiting Oxford to meet a pal, I had to find a pub showing the England match at short notice. This pub fitted the bill perfectly. Four pleasant pints of Guinness and good atmosphere, friendly barmaid, even a piano in one of the bars.

The Dolphin Inn, Bishampton

re-opened at christmas 2008, visited today; very impressed. Nicely done out, busy, interesting fireplace, good range of ales. Didnt try food but it smelt good, as i suppose it always does.

The Wheatstone Inn, Barnwood

It has had a recent make-over which is all very well, but in my opinion it is struggling in the kitchen department. At a meal for 8 recently, 3 meals had to be returned to be warmed up, and others' potatoes were hard. Visited just for a drink the other night and as I was being served I witnessed another diner return her meal saying various items were stone cold. Hope it manages to sort itself out. Rating reduced by a couple of points.
