The Star is at 21 Rectory Road, Oxford OX4 1BU. Across Magdalen Bridge, St Clement’s and Cowley Road have independent restaurants, music venues and pubs. Magdalen Road and the streets towards Iffley add more cafés and places to eat. There is plenty here for an afternoon or evening away from the centre.
Food service can differ from bar hours. Look at the current menu and ask about tables before coming with a group. The pub can also confirm garden access, dog policies, children’s access and allergy information.
