"We explored Woodstock on a Thursday and dropped by the Woodstock Arms for drinks. Impressed, we booked a table for lunch the following Sunday. Our Thursday visit was delightful; the bar team were excellent, and the food looked appetising. However, on Sunday, despite being shown to a different table than booked (initially not a concern), our experience took a downturn. Ordering starters took approximately 25 minutes. We opted for the Cheddar N’duja croquettes and Fried Whitebait, both delicious. After another 30 minutes, we ordered mains, specifying rare and medium-rare for beef. When the dishes arrived, both were presented as rare and medium-rare, though my rare was more akin to well-done. Upon notifying the waiter, one plate was taken away, and the barman later explained the beef was cooked sous vide, limiting the degree of doneness. We opted for a whole roast chicken instead. The chicken, presented on a platter, and so followed several more platters of roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, and vegetables. The table was full of platters of food, leaving us nowhere to put our dinner plates to eat. At this stage we requested condiments and cutlery, and that the gravy was missing. Despite asking for a larger table, we were given an additional bar table to put the platters on. The carving knife and fork provided were not fit for purpose and the knife was blunt, making it hard to carve the overcooked chicken. By the time the chicken was carved, the rest of the items were all cold. When we pointed out the issue to the waitress, there was a lack of apology or concern. The entire meal was sent back. The barman apologised again, offering additional items, but we had reached our limit. Despite poor service and substandard food, the bill lacked any adjustment or removal of the gratuity. We paid the bill, deeply disappointed. Reflecting on the experience for a week, I decided to write this review, hoping they elevate their standards."

Always a fan of this place, frequently visiting on each trip to Bicester Village. Great, fresh food with that “country” feel. Warm and cosy surroundings. Friendly, professional service. Recommend a visit next time you’re in town. Service: 5 Location: 5

We've had two dinners here recently and both times something went wrong, first time was the waitress's error and the second time our meat was not cooked properly. This has been so disappointing as I used to love the Woodstock arms and the food used to be amazing! The best thing about the Woodstock arms and the saviour of both our nights is the amazing service provided by Layla one of the waitresses there. Each time we had an issue she helped fix it and made sure we were well looked after and happy! Our experience there would have been very disappointing without her.

I find it hard to recognise some of the previous reviews as being about the same pub! We had an excellent two evenings here. The staff were wonderful. Very attentive, welcoming and professional. Also made a nice fuss of our dog. There was a lovely atmosphere and we went on two different evenings once for drinks only later in the evening, and the following night for dinner a little earlier in the evening. The pub decor is quirky and cosy. The menu has a good range of choice. We tried the feta and green bean salad, cottage pie, blade of beef bourguignon and it was all hot and delicious with good portion sizes. Was it pricey? Yes, but no different to every where else of this quality these days....

Fantastic pub with gourmet favourites with a twist like spinach gnocchi, fish and chips with housemade tartare sauce, bangers and mash and personal favourite, sticky date pudding. Great spot for a cocktail or pint as well as having some special 0% cocktails like NeSpresso (non-alcohilic espresso martini) or a Nojito (non-alcoholic mojito). If you're visiting Woodstock, this is a must visit!
