The Bear & Ragged Staff

Great location. Clean, cosy, good service. A bit pricey.

My second meal here in recent months and my second fantastic experience. The food, ambiance and staff are all top notch. The team were happy to accommodate my party's accessibility and dietary needs, service was quick and the team made some great recommendations. The food was fabulous, my chicken schnitzel filled most of the plate!

Lovely village hotel with cute rooms. Dinner in the restaurant was great too.

Very nice food,helpful waiters,great service.would go again. Only problem a bit off the beaten track from the Campsite we were staying on. Food & drinks: I can really recommend the steak n ale pie.

This pub is fantastic! I had the vegan burger with marmite onions , and it was delicious The dining room and beer garden were very welcoming, and the staff were exceptionally friendly too. Plus, they have the biggest menu of Alcohol-Free drinks that I have seen in any pub. I think, this is my new favourite watering hole! Food & drinks: Great vegan burger and alcohol-free drinks menu.

We decided to visit The Bear and Ragged Staff for a leisurely lunch this past Friday, and we were thoroughly charmed by the experience. We opted for the Fish and Chips sharing platter for two, and it did not disappoint. Different types of Fish were perfectly battered—crisp on the outside and succulently tender inside. The chips were golden and well-seasoned. The Chips were in fact blooming amazing, a perfect complement to the Fish. The ambience of The Bear and Ragged Staff adds to the dining experience with its quintessentially British, cosy pub feel. It's an ideal spot for a relaxed meal in a rustic setting that feels both welcoming and steeped in tradition. The staff at The Bear and Ragged Staff were not just friendly and attentive, but they also created a warm and inviting atmosphere. Their prompt service and genuine care enhanced our visit, making it a truly delightful experience. John popped over for a chat, and we booked the Fire and Fish BBQ in July; I am bringing friends, so the four of us are looking forward to that. We left with plans to return, excited about the potential for an even more delightful dining experience at The Bear and Ragged Staff.

Feels more than just a pub. Always great food!

We had a great experience staying here. Very helpful, friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble to accommodate the perfect stay. Delicious food, in great surroundings. Room was lovely. Definitely returning at some point.

We chose to stay here the night before our trip into Oxford. The food was delicious, and our stay was super comfortable. A very enjoyable stay. We are now curious to visit other Peach pubs following this experience (and hopefully one day return here). Rooms: Cute, rustic feel to the room we stayed in, with a nice modern bathroom and a super comfy bed. Food & drinks: We enjoyed a superb quality dinner prior to our stay - We ordered the pie and the pork loin, both of which were delicious! But the dauphinoise potatoes with wild garlic was to die for! Excellent! Noteworthy details: Staff were absolutely lovely, with Giancarlo and Ronan giving us everything we needed for our dinner and stay.

Friendly staff in Ye Olde building. Food & drinks: Restaurant and bars
