Recently burnt out after a kitchen fire. Don't go looking for beer or noodles anytime soon.

Now closed and being turned into a Wagamamas. No great loss looking at the place.

A town pub for local Oxford people so no need for posh students to bother thankfully.

No wonder the Oz Bar is quoted as being 0.0miles away from City Tavern seen as they are indeed the same place.
Rumour had it when Oz Bar changed into City Tavern two years ago it was because it had a bad reputation. City Tavern now has a bad reputation.
Beer is the standard chain affair. I seem to remember they had a poorly kept hand pull: pride?
Always packed for a cheap meal and a pint or three during the football/rugby/cricket.
Viewed as a pub to go and watch sport by students and somewhere to sit and drink all day by the indigenous population of oxford over 50.

Beer good. Sports on the somewhat overpowering TVs, which a good proportion of the customwers seemed to be glued to, but there are a couple of sofas in the back where you can escape from all that (but not the loudspeakers, which are everywhere, which is a pain in the a*** if you're trying to read something that isn't in English).

Not the best pub in Oxford for beer but they do put on a good variety of live music upstairs and it was nowhere near as grim as some reviews I've read suggested.
