While the staff are very pleasant and polite they are clearly lacking from training and spent more time at the bar flirting with the barman than paying attention to the diners. We sat in the room next to the bar which felt like an overflow room, cold dark and empty. The food was flavoursome and presented beautifully however my pork belly was dry and over cooked. The gravy was like water. No one came to check if the food was OK or any problems both in starter and mains. Even when collecting the empty plates no one asked if everything was OK.

Nice pub with good staff. However to charge £20 for a Sunday roast then only serve 2 fairly thin slices of beef was really poor. The vegetable portions were small too, but they then try to hide all this by serving an enormous Yorkshire pudding. That makes the plate look full but costs them next to nothing. All in all pretty disappointing and the only reason it scrapes a 3rd star is because the staff are very nice.
We had a wonderful Sunday lunch at this restaurant with exceptional service from our waitress. Thank you! The food was delicious and we enjoy coming here frequently. It is a family-friendly place where our kids feel welcome. We also appreciate that it is dog-friendly, especially with Tula the pub dog around!
We had a fantastic evening of dining and drinks at this charming countryside pub! The bar had a warm and inviting atmosphere, and we were treated to exceptional hospitality all night long. Thank you, Oxford Arms, for a wonderful experience! Book a table now
What a fabulous pub for Sunday lunch! Between us we had delicious roasts with all the trimmings (extra gravy too as it was so scrumptious! The pub atmosphere was delightful and staff very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!
This was my first visit to the Oxford Arms since the change in ownership. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious meal and excellent service provided by the friendly staff.
Lovely village pub, friendly bar service. Such a shame that the pebbled garden area is littered with dog excrement. Spoilt the whole visit.
This gorgeous village pub has great service, friendly staff and the roast beef was delicious, best Sunday lunch I’ve had in ages!! Book a table now
