 Tucked snugly away down an
unadvertised,
unassuming, narrow
alley in
central
Oxford,
is the Turf
Tavern, one of Oxford's
oldest and most famous Taverns.
Steeped in history and tradition
dating back to the 13th century,
the tavern's low ceiling,
exposed brickwork with timber
joists provide our
visitors with a warm, friendly
atmosphere in which to enjoy
real ale and draught
cider. Outside there are
also comfortably secluded courtyards. Tourists
and students flock to the Turf in pursuit of "an
education in intoxication" (the tavern's motto). In
the 17th century it served as a
malt house and in the late 18th
century it was transformed into
an
inn, under the name "The
Spotted Cow." It took its
present
incarnation in 1805, when it
assumed its current name.
Since then we have had many famous visitors
including C.S. Lewis,
T.S. Eliot and, of course,
Bill Clinton during his days
as a
Rhodes scholar. It is argued that The Turf is
the pub in which
Jude Fawley's drunken
Latin
rant takes place in
Thomas Hardy's book
Jude the Obscure. The Turf
Tavern's crowd, atmosphere,
and
history make it a
'must visit'
watering hole for anyone in
the area. We are notoriously
hard to find but worth the effort! |
