Picture the traditional, English country pub and imagine every ingredient needed to justify this classic description.
real ales from the cellar … genuine home-cooking … centuries of history … happy hosts … happy customers … gnarled oak beams … log fires in mid-winter … lively garden in summer … aunt sally … wide smiles … a warm and cosy atmosphere. Welcome to The Leathern Bottle at Lewknor, a village tucked between the Chilterns and the Oxford Plain, the surrounding acres of farmland above and beyond, formally designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A perfect location yet we are barely a minute from Junction 6 on the M40 motorway and the Oxford Tube bus stop. Convenient to reach, easy to find and tempting to visit.
The staff are so friendly and make you feel so welcome. Food is fantastic as well as the service. I would most definitely recommend as I love coming here
We love this pub, it’s nice and local, they do traditional proper food where many others are trying to be too clever and putting off customers by ruining their menus - we’ve stopped going to a few who’ve done this. If you’ve got a good menu then leave it alone! The staff are great, always friendly and helpful. You can’t book tables so get there early on busy days or expect to wait.
This pub is dog friendly, the food is excellent and the drink is reasonably priced. The gardens are lovely (except for the rain when we visited) and staff couldn't have been nicer. Definitely worth a visit no matter the weather (definitely want to go back in the summer) - I guarantee you will want to return again and again.
Nipped in for a quick bite to eat and will definitely be going back. The food was fabulous, the staff so cheerful and helpful and pub beautiful. Loved the warm welcome, walkers dogs lying under the tables and not being able to book a table. Mixed seating on bigger tables means meeting other people, I loved it.
Great lunch with bestie. Food is delicious, service is great and lovely atmosphere. We both had lambs liver with bacon and onion gravy, mash and peas. Absolutely lovely.
