There was a running joke in our family for more than 6 years, that despite several visits and…read morenumerous walks-past, I hadn't enjoyed a pint at the Rusty B. I first came with my husband and sister-in-law years ago when I was expecting, enjoying the ginger beer, the ample space, and not much else. I had it on my list when visiting again, but never made it inside. Finally, this trip, I got several pints, a couple of pizzas, and a burger, too. Order at the bar (note that there are £5 burgers on Mondays! and monthly specials for the burgers and pizzas), and pick your spot. I enjoy the little huts in the back garden, past the creepy cupboard (which is handy for threatening misbehaving children), but with so much space in the main room and the lovely outdoor tables, practically every seat is a good one. The burger was quite good for the price. The portion on the sweet potato chips was quite generous, and they were lovely and crisp. I enjoyed the pizzas - L'Ala Falco with sausage, onion, fior de latte, the June special with chorizo and corn, the margherita, and the kids cheese - nice crust with just the right amount of char and chew. Looking forward to more visits and pints in the future! 2019 Reviews #24

I'm surprised this place hasn't had more reviews. It's an utterly brilliant little pub in a…read morefast-improving part of Oxford. It's run by a couple of young men and they bring a true dedication to this business. Fabulous range and quality of beers and excellent, simple food. In times when other pubs struggle and go out of business this place is thriving and deservedly so. There are a number of these types of pubs that have appeared in Oxford These places have a good clientel who enjoy the atmosphere and the banter. It's like the re-invention of the pub with all the bad old thuggish bits taken out and the wonderful traditional bits kept in. This will be the saviour of the British pub which is otherwise under siege on all sides.

They have a good selection of traditional pub food on their menu and are owned by the Hungry Horse Chain, so if you like big portions this is the place for you, prices are also very reasonable and value for money.

The…read morefood was exquisite and the presentation was wonderful, nicest belly of pork I can remember eating. Typically smaller portions but very tasty and filling. The desserts were awesome and the hot chocolate fondant was ever so light, creamy and rich. A good selection of wines and all other drinks from the pub served by staff who couldn't do enough for us. Extremely busy and a good idea to book as I don't think there are many restaurants of that standard in the area. Quite a few certificates stating that they are in the Good Food Guide and Michelin Guide etc.

Having spent the previous night at what I considered to be a 5-star establishment with dining to…read morematch, I was somewhat underwhelmed by both here at the popular Rose Revived Inn. Bordered by the Thames River on one side and a somewhat busy road (for the area) on another, The Rose Revived Inn's riverside dining atmosphere is pleasant, pretty even, though I was underwhelmed by the meals I ate here. Still, with little competition in the immediate area it's easy to see why they remain a draw. Most who dine here won't also be staying the night but I did. The room was clean and nice enough though very small. Air circulation was unmanageable as the window proved quite difficult to open and the location of a provided fan was inadequate in helping to move the air around in a satisfactory manner. There's not a whole lot of choice in this area, for either lodging or dining and, as a result, I'd call everything provided by the Rose Revived Inn "good enough".
