DrinkPub
Turf Tavern
A well-hidden pub, but also well known by locals. Good range of beers. Nice beer garden with coal fires where you can roast marshmallows on chilly evenings in spring and autumn. This ancient pub (a favourite with Inspector Morse) is an unmissable Oxford institution that many consider to be the best pub in the city — in the summer watch out for drenched students enjoying the end of their exams. Pint >£5. Famously the location where U.S. president Bill Clinton "Did not inhale" marijuana during his time at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar.
