Our old-world pub perfectly blends tradition with contemporary comfort, making it a cherished spot for locals and visitors alike.

We’ve been making memories since 1656 – and we’re still the place to be for all of life’s unforgettable moments (whether pre-planned or wonderfully spontaneous).

Pop in for a quick drink at the bar, settle in for an afternoon of people-watching on the terrace, or tuck into a meal shared with your favourite people.

Serving up the best dining in Oxford,  from lunch and dinner to seasonal specials and proper British Sunday roasts, there’s always something worth savouring.

Vicky and the team look forward to welcoming you soon.

Rugby, proper pints and plates piled high with the good stuff.
If you’re looking for the best place to watch the Six Nations 2026 in Oxford, you’ve just found it.

Here at the Plough Inn we do the Six Nations the way it should be done – no fuss, no gimmicks, just great rugby, seasonal British food and a pub atmosphere that feels like home.

Join us at the Plough Inn as the world’s biggest football tournament takes centre stage this summer. We’ll be showing all England matches live, plus the crucial knock-out games as the drama unfolds.

Whatever the occasion – from big birthday bashes and work dos to festive get-togethers and everything in between – we know how to throw a proper party.

Our cosy pub spaces are perfect for mingling, feasting, and raising a glass (or two). Whether you’re planning a relaxed catch-up with friends, a full-blown celebration, or your office Christmas party, we’ve got the food, drink, and atmosphere to make it one to remember.

Looking for something more private? Our upstairs spaces can be hired exclusively, complete with your own bar and all the trimmings.
