Details

A stone's throw from the lively Cowley Road, The James Street Tavern offers a welcoming, refurbished space with a trendy-yet-cosy feel, complete with bare brick walls and exposed pipework. It’s known for its decent ales, beers, wines, and cocktails, alongside a food menu that has previously featured crêpes and burgers, and now serves award-winning Pieminister pies daily. The venue boasts a gorgeous and plentiful outdoor garden, a tranquil escape with a new wood-panelled Pavilion with a retractable roof, perfect for gatherings of all sizes. This spot has a history dating back to the 19th century and was notably revamped in 2019, aiming to be a safe and enjoyable destination for both locals and visitors.

The James Street Tavern is a hub for regular entertainment, ensuring there's always a reason to visit. Guests can enjoy Oxford's longest-running comedy open mic night, live music on weekends, and open mic sessions on Sunday afternoons. For those who enjoy a quieter activity, there are board game clubs on Sundays and the Cuckoo's Nest Film Society screenings on Tuesdays. The tavern also supports local artists, hosting regular art classes, workshops, and art markets typically held on the last weekend of the month, showcasing paintings, prints, jewellery, and more. With its friendly atmosphere and diverse events, it’s a true local gem.
