Jolly Farmers - Oxford

Amazing pub old beans open fire. Also LGBT and shows LGBT pubs can be old traditional pubs with oak beans and great beers etc without adhering to any stereo type.

We received a very friendly welcome at the restaurant, which is housed in a charming building. The selection of drinks was excellent and we appreciated the helpful advice on what to order. The location was great, and it was surprisingly peaceful for a Saturday afternoon at 4pm.

Lovely place, and the staff are very well organised if anything spills it's picked up immediately BUT as it's advertised online and outside the venue as having an open fire, we were distraught at being told especially on a very cold Winter's night that only sometimes is it lit dependent on how warm it is inside. We were cold and other pubs light their fires regardless. Other than that it's great

It was so delightful to discover a quaint pub in the heart of a bustling city, just a short walk away from all the noise and distractions, where there are no TVs, music, or arcade games! This charming, traditional pub has cozy seating and friendly bartenders. Thank you for a wonderful evening with delicious drinks and excellent service.

This is a lovely place, which has become something of a second home since I discovered it a couple of years ago. The building is a beautiful quirky old place, the staff are marvellous; kind, friendly, helpful, very efficient, and keep an eagle eye on things so that nothing goes wrong. A great eclectic collection of books to read if one is on one's own as well as a range of board games, and I have met many new friends there (the staff have become good friends too), and there is a great atmosphere. I love Sherlock the Bassett Hound when he makes an appearance too! A really nice mixture of types and ages of people, and a remarkably friendly atmosphere that makes it more like a lively and very good country pub than most town pubs. Pleasant background music but not too loud so conversation is easy, all too rare these days. A relaxed, welcoming, place and highly recommended.
