Beautiful pub! We came in for drinks after a meal elsewhere but wish wed booked here. Its the exact pub vibe you want for a lazy Sunday. There are separate sections for drinking and eating, all decorated really nicely. I cant say much about the food as we didnt eat but the selection looked great.

We were looking for a pint after our visit to Blenheim Palace, so we walked into Woodstock and found the Kings Arms. Its an inn, restaurant, and pub. We just stopped for a couple of pints so cant say much beyond the pub, which is very quaint and traditional and doing good business for the middle of a weekday afternoon. Good beer selection and good service.

Lovely pub, expensive drinks though. Didn't eat or see any food but for a treat it would be worth a visit. Lovely toilets....

Lovely decoration - the ladies bathroom is a must-see! Would love to see some non-salad veggie options on the menu, my Asian tofu salad was very tasty but could have done with a warm dish on a cold night :)

Great breakfast. Nice large rooms. Staff friendly and helpful. Don't go when the fair is on, 3rd to 5th October this year, too noisy.
