"Arrived at 2:30pm, ordered and paid for food and then waited 40 mins before discovering the order had vanished. The pub was empty and no one checked on me in that time. I was refunded, but the response 'Sorry we don 't know what happened ' bugged me, as if the whole thing is mysterious and food sometimes arrives, sometimes doesn 't who can tell?! The Rusty can do things well in the evenings and I had a good experience recently (I guess it 's a shame we feel compelled to leave reviews for the bad experiences, not the good), but I would stay away during the end of the the day shift."

Good atmosphere, both inside and in the garden. Enjoyed a Dodo burger and chips which were well cooked. Excellent selection of beers and ales. Highly recommended!

This pub is excellent. It has a relaxed atmosphere and quirky interior design. The staff are very helpful and they serve possibly the best pizzas ever. They also have a good selection of drinks. I highly recommend this place!

I had an amazing experience at the restaurant with the incredible 'Seoul Bird' chicken burger, delicious rosemary chips, and tasty pizza. The service was fast and overall, it was a great experience. I will definitely be back in the future. View menu

Great place, can't imagine not having it nearby! My favourite pub in the area. Great fries, pizzas, burgers. And you can reserve tables if and when you're having a get-together. Secondhand books with a bit of masking tape with your name act as the reserved signs. I had Tennyson and Dickens. Top marks.

Super nice homely pub. Staff are excellent! I was just passing through the area after reading reviews of where to get a nice pint and some grub and the rusty came up. Glad i visted this place. Lisa and Jamie were charming and caring, made my Monday blues into Monday woohoos. Will have to come back for their street party on the 29th.

This neighborhood pub is a gem. With outdoor seating that provides shade in the afternoon, it's the perfect spot to relax. They have a fantastic variety of beers and food, including tasty burgers and delicious pizzas. Their weekday special of £5 margarita pizzas is a steal, and the pizzas are made with fresh ingredients, a great sauce, and a tasty sourdough crust. View menu

The pub is a nice place to be, and it's always busy. I'm not a fan of their beers and this place has some horrendous examples of shrinkflation. The dodo burger is now basically a slider for £11.50, on its own. The £4 slaw, was barely a couple of tablespoons. I understand that we are now paying more for food, but I take issue with leaving hungry and still paying a fortune.

Continues to go downhill, sadly. The chips are just rubbish these days (old, stale, chewy, no rosemary any more) and the whole meal rarely seems worth the price, especially with a standard lager being £6.50. So, more than 20 quid for a basic burger n chips with a pint? Hmm. I won't even mention the £3.50 coleslaw. Cabbage, carrot, onion these are luxury foodstuffs these days, and only the wealthy deserve to have them...

"I've been going to Oxford for 3 years now and in that time to be frank struggled to find a decent go to restaurant. I can now say with delight i've found my destination. I present SPICED ROOTS a little caribbean culinary gem. The fresh perfectly cooked food is absolutely delicious and gives off that home cooked by mummy vibe and is beautifully presented. The chilli and garlic prawns had my eyes closed Mark Weins style (if you know you know) so juicy with an incredible depth of flavour, the Trini doubles not only were seasoned to perfection they left you wanting more and the Jerk chicken spring rolls were an absolute triumph. For mains we had the ackee and callaloo Jerk Tempah (vegetarian) and the Jerk chicken. Both came with rice peas, plaintain and salad. Not only were the portions huge the flavours of both dishes were just mind blowingly delicious. Then we embarked on dessert and had the beautiful spiced rum cake and a selection of 3 home made ice creams namely Coconut, Guinness and the old Caribbean favourite Rum and Raisin, all recommended by the owner. It's at this point I feel compelled to speak about the rum raisin ice cream. I've eaten this ice cream on numerous occasions at numerous locations in Jamaica over my many years and I tell you no word of a lie this was hands down the best rum and raisin ice cream I've ever tasted, it literally left us speechless. So to summarise, this place has great food, great music, great service and a wonderfully charming owner who's totally invested in serving great, incredibly tasty, authentic Caribbean food clearly prepared with love. What more could you ask for. Fair to say it was meant to be. Uncle Jay."
