The Angel, Bicester

Awful since Mandy left, new landlord unfriendly, and although they still have karaoke on Sunday, it's not a patch on the old nights when Helen & J did it. Don't open late at weekend anymore either, which is the only reason for going there. The new people won't last long that's for sure, with this attitude.

I have to disagree with the negative comments from previous posters, this is a lovely little pub, and what they have done out the back is superb. It is a good place to hire out for private parties. There was one in there last Saturday, and they had a hog roast (which smelled delicious) and a disco (which sounded fantastic - the DJ was playing some great party tunes).

Unfortunately as I did not have an invite I was unable to go in the marquee ( I was with friends in the public area outside) but it sounded like they were having fun.

Inside things have much improved since the smoking ban, but the smokers are happy anyway, as they can sit outside in comfort and even watch the footie on outside screens.

Hi, just wanted to say that I was in this pub last Sunday night and had a great time. They have started doing karaoke in there (which I love) and the atmosphere was superb. The DJ was fantastic and really friendly, he got me up to sing twice although it was busy. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. Not only that but the best singer wins �20 (not me this time - some guy doing Elvis songs - he was good though).

I have been to several other karaoke nights in Bicester and they are not a patch on this. Either the DJ's are unfriendly and patronise you, or there's no atmosphere, or all the other singers are taking it too seriously and are really up themselves. Clearly the agenda at The Angel is about everyone having fun and this was spot on. The highlight for me was 4 guys singing Christmas songs in the middle of August - hilarious.

I used to think the Angel was a bit dull, but this has really livened it up - the drinks are reasonably priced too and the bar staff friendly. I will certainly be going back next Sunday.
