| The last reviewer was spot on with his prediction - the premises reopened last month as a chain Caribbean restaurant. paul_d102 - 24 Nov 2015 15:03 |
| Farewell to the Madding Crowd which closed on Saturday having opened as a new venture in 2002 down an alleyway on the edge of Oxford's main shopping area. Unfortunately the premises were inconducive to a traditional pub atmosphere but a good selection of ever-changing ales and regular CAMRA GBG listings and local awards helped to maintain a steady customer base. However Oxford city centre, which used to be a bit of a real ale desert, has seen a considerable rise in recent times of establishments offering a wide range of ales which has dissipated the level of trade here over the last two years or so. I suspect it is unlikely to reopen as a bar, more probably as yet another restaurant, and I wish the proprietor Charles Eld a happy retirement. yellowfever - 3 Feb 2015 11:59 |
| Still a great pub. Shame it isn't one of the Oxford pubs of the year. Super beer and food. in_the_shed - 31 Oct 2014 20:50 |
| Tucked away in an alley by Tesco local, we circled this pub before we found it. It was worth the effort. A varied clientele and relaxed atmosphere was a promising feel when we entered. The friendly barstaff were fantastic. We stayed for at least 4 pints. Highly recommended. vicpark - 9 Oct 2014 01:08 |
| Surprisingly quiet on a Friday lunchtime, but then there are a lot of other pubs close by. Very attentive and friendly staff and a good range of beers. Trev - 6 Sep 2014 16:08 |
