  • Oxford Good Times Guide
    GOOD TIMES GUIDE 2014 This guide offers you some suggestions of places, which I think are above average and worth checking out. I hope that it will act as a starting point for your adventures in Oxford, as you discover the many other good venues nestled amongst the dreaming spires. II CAFES 1 A selection of the most worthy joints in which to get a quick refreshing drink or bite to eat. RESTAURANTS 4 More serious food for a full-on meal. Split into three sections: Oriental, Indian, and European. SANDWICH SHOPs 8 Tasty lunchtime fodder to set you up for the afternoon ahead. PUBS 9 Reviews of some of Oxford’s most notable drinking establishments. SWIFT ONES 11 Brief thoughts on a few more pubs. KEBAB VANS 13 Gourmet foodstuffs for when you’ve had a few drinks. BARS 14 Cocktails-a-plenty in these funky watering holes. CLUBS 15 Suitable venues for anyone wanting to large it. CINEMA 16 Hollywood blockbusters and independent films. THEATRE 17 Professional and am-dram productions. OTHER STUFF TO DO IN OXFORD 18 Other stuff to do in Oxford An exciting bonus section so you know what’s so special about Oxford. The museums live in this section... III CAFES THE MISSING BEAN TURL Street The Missing Bean has anything you could ever want (except alcoholic drinks). As the name reveals the place is mostly about coffee, but they also have good sandwiches and cakes (try their raspberry and white chocolate muffin). At ‘the Bean’ – as the more verbally lazy have come to call it – (mostly) experienced baristas will serve you up a flat white while playing funky tunes on the stereo.
