Gets a bad rap because it's student infested at peak times - and these are the kinds of students who attended Radley and Stow to boot - but it's not too bad in an 'if you are an avid fan of Cold Feet' sort of way - so, tasteful with a couple of decent but predictable beers on tap - Brakspear's and London Pride on this occasion and the food - I once tried a pie - more than passes muster in a city where pub food generally outstrips that on offer at restaurants.

Proper relaxed pub with comfy sofas, very agreeable food, decent cider, friendly staff. We like. el_capitano - 6 Mar 2011 14:07 |
Good location between town and Cowley / Headington, but don't go out of your way. The Star around the corner is better. plymouthpirate - 5 Dec 2009 12:28 |
Mitchell and Butler venue that has had the M&B retro/gastro makeover, like many of their venues that were formerly run as 'Scream' joints. As such, you know what you will get - a decent range of lager, creditable range of real ale, and a pretty agreeable ambiance. I'm fairly partial to this line of pubs; they are certainly a vast improvement over the 'Scream' atrocities. thomashenry - 24 Dec 2008 11:02 |
The new Cape of Good Hope is a nice place. While it is a little generic in its interior (new bar cum pub cum wine bar) it is a nice refit and the bar staff are nice, attentive and attractive (not that it really matters). A great selection of world beers, especially good seing some more Belgian and Bavarian beers on show than the usuals (try the Paulaner Pils). Especially good on a Friday when the crowd is of all ages, friendly and usually up for a good night both in and out. Moose82 - 10 Oct 2006 17:15 |
