The Chester Arms is one of those Oxford pubs that already knows exactly what people come for. This independent, family-run neighbourhood pub is famous for its steak platter, but the wider appeal is just as strong: hearty pub food, vegan and vegetarian options, a small sunshine terrace and a Sunday roast worth travelling for.

For dog owners, it feels like a proper destination stop after a walk rather than a filler venue between plans. Easygoing, well fed and full of local affection, it has all the ingredients of a reliable favourite.
