8.0“Friendly b&b for a visit to Banbury”
+Staff were very friendly and helpful but were unclear what to do when we said the room was cold. Great location and lovely room. Despite some negatives if I visited Banbury I would stay here again.
−Unfortunately because the room was cold we couldn’t use the shower. They don’t provide breakfast but left instant oats in the room, which wasn’t very pleasant to eat. A breakfast bar would have been better.

7.0“Very welcoming and with plenty of charm but would not recommend in a heat wave”
+The location was convenient for taking a stroll through town. The staff were very welcoming and the pub itself was very nice.
−It was unfortunate but in the very hot weather the bedroom was like an oven. There was very limited ventilation and keeping the small window open meant that we could hear everything going on in the courtyard below. I could not recommend this as a place to stay in hot weather.

9.0“Comfortable and quaint rooms”
+Lovely, quaint and comfortable rooms in a quiet corner of this town centre pub. Loved the provision of instant porridge for breakfast 😋
−Loved the mood lighting but could have done with brighter central light (minor issue unless needing light to put makeup on).

7.0“Spacious pub bedroom for overnight stay”
+Spacious double room with ensuite bathroom, and friendly helpful bar staff on arrival, in good location in Banbury.
−Not the pub's fault, but the bedroom was extremely hot as the night I stayed we were experiencing another UK heatwave, and so the one fan provided and one very small window did not lower the temperature in the room much. I knew breakfast was not served, but surely a pot of instant porridge, in July, could have been substituted for perhaps a cereal bar? Also not even a small bottle of water was provided - during a heatwave. The lighting in the room was poor. Finally, I did know in advance that parking was not guaranteed, but it was annoying to have to drive down the road to a public car park, instead of having a reserved overnight guest space in the pub car park (there are only 2 or 3 guest bedrooms).

10.0+Stayed here one night (31/07/26) and it was perfect! Amazing pub! Beautifully decorated. Friendly staff on arrival and girls behind the bar were lovely thoughout. Great pints! Food was little pricey but very nice. The room was really clean and just lovely. The live music was fantastic! Loved it! Had an amazing night here with my wife, thank you.
