The Talbot Inn

This was a beautiful, tasteful decorated room, bed was super comfy. It was very clean and comfortable. By far the best I have stayed in while travelling around England, Ireland and Scotland. The bathroom was beautiful. Very cozy and warm. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful, the staff very nice and accommodating with lots knowledge of surrounding areas. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. 10/10 from me.

This pub was welcoming. The menu was varied and the food was delicious. It was good value. The pub was accessible and only ten minutes from the canal where we were moored up. It had nice decor and was spacious. The staff were friendly, cheerful and efficient.

Didn’t stay here but popped in tonight for some food. Staff were super friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. We had a burger, steak and fried brisket with cheesy potatoes - all delicious. Desserts - sticky toffee and white choc Malteser cheesecake - also delicious. Lovely place to enjoy a quiet meal, really nice decor and atmosphere without being pretentious. Will definitely be back to try more and a Sunday lunch very soon. Bit cold for outside seating at the moment but lovely spots when the sun is a little warmer. Thanks for a lovely meal!

I went here with my family for my mums 52nd birthday. The food was amazing. The Panini’s were big and tasted really good. We (my mum and I) had the goats cheese and onion one. My Nan had the small fish and chips. It was massive though so definitely enough for a normal portion. She loved the chips. My Gramp had the special of the day pie which was a lamb one. He loved that it had big chunks of meat and not just full of gravy. He said it was juicy and tender. Best pie he had ever had. My dad had the liver which was cooked to perfection and had very nice sauce. We were so impressed with the food so we all had puddings which were made to order as they were able to take the cherries out the crumble and make a fresh one. It was all to die for especially the cheesecakes 😋😋. Staff were very friendly and the place had a very good atmosphere. This place was recommended by a friend but I will be recommending this place to all my friends. Definitely a place people should go!! Thank you for a good meal, - Jess x

Staff Really Friendly, polite and welcoming, food excellent, room clean spacious and modern, I’ve stayed here on numerous occasions excellent every time I’ve visited, great selection of real ales and some great wines, if your staying in Oxford then this is highly recommended

Really can’t fault this place. My accommodation was tip-top, very clean and stylish. There was a very welcoming fire in the pub itself and both meal and beer were first class. The staff were also very helpful and friendly Would definitely come again!

What a fantastic place to stay. The room was spotless, spacious and warm with everything you could wish for. The staff were some of the friendliest we have ever met, especially Georgie who went out of her way to help us. The breakfast was so good, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs and a full English that was superb. Fabulous fresh coffee too! We highly recommend this hotel to anyone and will definitely be back.

My husband and I went to dinner at the Talbot with some friends and we had a wonderful experience. The venue is beautiful, the service is excellent and the food was gorgeous. My husband and I are vegan and Stewart very kindly offered to make us a beautiful mushroom and vegetable pie! It was so wonderful to see a chef who actually cared and made a huge difference to our eating experience. This very very rarely ever happens when we go out for dinner. Stewart, thank you so much. The food was amazing and the fact that you kindly offered to make us something that was not on your menu is so so appreciated by myself and my husband. Can’t wait to see you all soon.

Great rooms, great staff and great food, excellent choice of beers and spirits
