The Wheatsheaf in Oxford

Ah, The Wheatsheaf – it's one of those pubs that just hits the spot, you know? From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, it's got this fantastic old-school charm that's perfect for sinking a Guinness on a Sunday afternoon or getting stuck into the jukebox and pool table on a Friday night. The bar staff and the crowd of regulars really make it feel welcoming, like you're chatting with mates rather than just grabbing a drink. Prices are fair, which is always a win, and it captures that genuine Oxford essence that you'd expect from a tucked-away spot. On the flip side, it's a shame there's no food on offer, so you might end up heading out for a proper meal, and with doors not opening until the afternoon, it might not suit everyone for an early session. All in all, if you're after a solid, no-fuss pub with a great vibe, it's well worth a visit – just go in with realistic expectations and you'll have a top time.
