Restaurant | Oxford | England | Großbritannien

Traditionsreicher Pub in Oxford

Das "The Trout Inn" in Oxford, England, ist ein traditionsreiches Lokal, das sich als Premium-Pub und Restaurant einen Namen gemacht hat und Besucher mit seinem einzigartigen Charme begeistert. Gelegen am idyllischen Ufer des River Thames im Stadtteil Lower Wolvercote, kombiniert dieses historische Gebäude aus dem 17. Jahrhundert gekonnt rustikalen Stil mit modernen Elementen. Der Pub ist ein beliebter Treffpunkt für Einheimische, Spaziergänger und Touristen, die nach einem Spaziergang entlang des Flusses oder einem Ausflug in die Umgebung von Oxford eine entspannte Atmosphäre suchen. Die kürzlich erfolgte Renovierung hat das Innere stilvoll aufgewertet, ohne den ursprünglichen Charakter zu verlieren, und bietet eine einladende Mischung aus Gemütlichkeit und Eleganz.

Premium-Restaurant am Flussufer

Kulinarisch legt "The Trout Inn" Wert auf frische, saisonale Zutaten und bietet eine abwechslungsreiche Auswahl an Gerichten, die sowohl klassische Pub-Küche als auch moderne Trends widerspiegeln. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das "Spit-Roasted Chicken with Lemon & Garlic Confit", ein saftiges Hähnchen, das mit seiner aromatischen Note und knusprigen Haut überzeugt. Ebenfalls beliebt ist das "Slow Cooked Pork Belly with Seared Scallops", bei dem die zarte Schweinebauch-Kombination mit Jakobsmuscheln eine perfekte Balance zwischen Land und Meer schafft. Für Dessertliebhaber ist der "Melting Golden Chocolate Bomb" ein Highlight – ein warmes Schokoladendessert, das mit Karamelleis serviert wird und durch seine reichhaltige Süße begeistert. Die Speisen werden von einem talentierten Küchenteam täglich frisch zubereitet, was den hohen Qualitätsanspruch des Restaurants unterstreicht.

Historisches Restaurant mit Terrasse

Die Getränkekarte ist ebenso vielfältig und sorgfältig zusammengestellt. Neben einer Auswahl an traditionellen Ales und Lagern bietet der Pub eine beeindruckende Weinkarte sowie eine Reihe von Cocktails, die perfekt auf die Speisen abgestimmt sind. Besonders die saisonalen Specials und die spritzigen "Bubbles" – eine Anspielung auf Prosecco und Champagner – machen das Angebot komplett. Für diejenigen, die eine leichte Erfrischung suchen, gibt es auch kreative alkoholfreie Optionen. Das "The Trout Inn" ist zudem bekannt für seine besonderen Events, wie etwa saisonale Menüs oder Themenabende, die das Erlebnis immer wieder abwechslungsreich gestalten.

Saisonale Spezialitäten im Pub

Das Ambiente des Restaurants ist ein großer Teil seines Reizes. Im Inneren sorgen freiliegende Holzbalken, offene Kamine und stilvolle Möbel für eine warme, einladende Stimmung, während die großzügige Terrasse am Flussufer geradezu dazu einlädt, bei schönem Wetter draußen zu verweilen. Der Gartenbereich, ausgestattet mit Heizstrahlern, bietet auch an kühleren Tagen oder Abenden Komfort und lädt zum Entspannen ein. Ein charmantes Detail ist die kleine Brücke, die die Terrasse mit einem privaten Garten verbindet, was dem Außenbereich eine besondere Ästhetik verleiht. Diese Lage am Wasser macht das Lokal vor allem im Sommer zu einem Hotspot für alfresco Dining.

Rustikales Ambiente mit Modernität

"The Trout Inn" zieht eine breite Gästeschaft an – von Familien über Paare bis hin zu Gruppen von Freunden, die hier sowohl zwanglose Treffen als auch besondere Anlässe feiern. Der Pub bietet auch private Veranstaltungsräume, die sich ideal für Feiern wie Geburtstage oder Hochzeiten eignen, und verfügt über moderne Ausstattung wie WLAN und Projektoren für geschäftliche Anlässe. Der Service wird oft als herzlich und aufmerksam beschrieben, was das Gesamterlebnis abrundet. Die Nähe zur Natur, kombiniert mit der historischen Bedeutung – das Lokal wird sogar in literarischen Werken wie Evelyn Waughs "Brideshead Revisited" erwähnt – verleiht dem "The Trout Inn" eine besondere Aura.

Took a long time for initial drinks to arrive. The bottle of rosé wasn't chilled. It then took a while to get an ice bucket. The starters arrived within seconds of ordering, which was way too fast for a civilised Saturday evening meal, unless your American, of course. The two very small goats cheese tarte tatins had overcooked & crumbly puff pastry, making them difficult to eat. Deep fried squid was OK but uninspiring. As our main courses arrived, the fire alarm sounded and nobody seemed to have a clue what we should do. Our waiter told us that it was his first day and that he hadn't been given any training on it. The diners all spent a minute or so looking around at each other wondering if they should evacuate the building until it was switched off. There was no leadership from anyone. The main course pizza was deemed to be OK, my beef pie with mash and vegetables was very good but the small portion looked a bit pathetic on the plate. The additional small pan of gravy which came with it was very average. My wife's ribeye steak was very poor indeed, with half of its 10oz left on the plate in the form of fat & sinew. This was, after a bit of toing & froing with the waitress, eventually removed from the bill. Overall, not particularly good. We won't be troubling them again any time soon.

Great food and great service. In particular, Alice W nailed the service - patient, informative, and excellent in dealing with an allergy.

Fantastic pub/restaurant, delicious food, beautiful location and friendly and attentive staff- what more could you ask for? The squid starter was particularly delicious. Lovely welcome from all the staff and I must say thank you to our server, Xavi, for great service.

We had an excellent Sunday lunch, the food was amazing and the waitress Lucy was engaging, informative and efficient. Highly recommend. Maybe worth parking at Godstow carpark, 4 minutes walk away as Trout carpark very busy.

I had probably the nicest plate of risotto here that I've ever eaten - perfectly cooked, really balanced seasoning, slightly brothy, superb flavour

Enjoyed Sunday lunch with friends. The place was very busy but staff were very calm and efficient. Top marks to our waitress Lucy for excellent service. The food was delicious and we loved the mini desert with hot drink for pudd (also available with a cocktail!) as we were too full to eat a whole one! Thank you Lucy and thank you The Trout. Ps the car park was very busy so allow extra time for parking in the additional car park down the road if the Trout car park is full.

Great Sunday lunch specials of spring hake and lamb rump, and a lovely drinks selection. Was such a pleasure to visit, and our server Kelly was lovely.

They gave us food poisoning. We complained but shockingly they didn't seem bothered. Won't be returning.

Food was of a high standard. Service was prompt even though busy. Good value for money. Table stuck away in far corner was the only thing that could be improved upon.

They have got the location, so don't need to try too hard with the food, and they don't. Had " beef and merlow" pie, with chive mash, just one quibble, no beef in it. A big chunk of pie, looked promising, decent pastry, and good rich flavour, but whole pie had 4 tiny pieces of beef, about 1cm cube each. This pie is designed by accountants not cooks. It was just gravy and pastry. Total value of beef content in the pie, about 30p. For 18 quid, a rip off. I've noticed this a couple of times with The Trout, the 'expensive ' bit of any meal is always in very short supply, eg had cheese and biscuits for dessert a few weeks earlier, loads of crackers and pickle, but 3 tiny bits of cheap supermarket cheese. Also the piped music is absolute torture, volume too high, and music abysmal. Tried it just before Xmas, 5 out of 10, gave it another go this week, 3 out of 10, won't be back

Living in 🇨🇦, I come over to 🇬🇧 every 6 Months to see my elderly parents. With amazing fare, it’s not difficult to make sure we pay a visit to The Trout with each trip. We’re treated exceptionally well …and this last trip was no different. Hanah (our server …and perhaps the manager for all I know), made sure we were looked after. The meals were cooked to perfection and the entire dining experience was lovely. Thanks so much Hanah!

I have left a good bye comment 5~6 years ago and haven't gone back since then. I realised that the new owner replied to my comment and I gave them a try this time. I was impressed by their new refurbished and service. Also there is a lunch set menu with reasonable price. I ordered from the regular menu and chose seafood pasta which is easy to judge for freshness of materials. It was delicious and the pasta was cooked al dente perfectly. I am really happy with their new management and shef. I will go back again soon.
