About This Pub

So, if you're after a proper local spot in Oxford, Corner House really hits the mark for a laid-back evening. I love how the staff go out of their way to make everything feel welcoming – it's that kind of place where you can pop in for a quick pint and end up staying for hours, chatting away. The drinks are a steal, especially with pints like Guinness coming in under £5.10, and from the reviews, the food sounds spot on too, particularly those Sunday dinners that folks rave about as being generous and delicious. It's got a great buzz, whether you're there for a drink or some fun like karaoke, and the service is quick and cheerful. On the downside, there was a mention of them being a bit late with bookings, so if you've got something planned, it might pay to check in advance. All in all, it's a solid choice for a good time without the fuss, and I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just take it as it comes and you'll have a cracking night.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • Drinks are affordably priced, like a pint of Guinness for just over £5, which is great value for a casual night out.
  • The atmosphere is lovely and lively, perfect for a relaxed chat or enjoying some entertainment like karaoke.
  • They've got a solid selection of drinks and tasty food options, with Sunday dinners coming in for high praise as proper hearty meals.
  • Service is spot on, with quick and attentive bar staff ensuring you never have to wait long for your order.
Cons
  • There was a bit of confusion in one review about the location, mentioning Reading when it's actually in Oxford, which might put some folks off if they're not paying attention.
  • They can run a tad late with bookings, like for the karaoke room, so it's worth planning ahead to avoid any frustration.
  • The website seems to have some issues, making it tricky to get more details online before you visit.

I didn't have any food here so I can't rate that but Simon and Amy run a very good pub and with Guinness at £5:05 a pint it's no wonder that I keep going back 👍😁👍😁

Lovely little Sports Bar / Entertainment spot in the centre of Reading. They had a good amount of bar staff on meaning there was never a wait for a drink, which is refreshing on a Saturday night. We had the karaoke room booked for an hour and whilst they were running late they kept us informed. The booth was lovely, private and easy to use. No doubt we’ll be back, if I can get over £6.60 a pint!
