St Giles' pub dating to at least 1695 where Thomas Hardy drank and another meeting place for the Inklings. The wood-panelled interior and small rooms maintain a traditional Oxford atmosphere. GBP 5-6 per pint with standard pub fare.
Less crowded than The Eagle and Child, making it easier to secure a table in the atmospheric front bar.
