About us
Dating from 1242 The Bear is the oldest pub in Oxford and a real hidden gem, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the High Street. Students, locals and tourists drop in to enjoy a great pint of real ale and good, home-cooked food in these historic premises. Our historic pub in the centre of the ancient city of Oxford makes us a great place to hold a birthday celebration, wedding reception or even business meeting or work event. If you're looking for venues to hire in the Oxford area, you won't do better than our traditional country pub, with a fresh, home-cooked menu, great real ales and a warm, friendly welcome.
