Any Rs in Banbury? 10:56 - Jan 12 with 3297 views

I’m visiting some friends in Banbury this weekend.
I’ll still be there on Sunday when we play Watford so I’m looking for somewhere to watch that.
It’d need to be fairly central because I’m on the train.

There are around 50 R's in and around Banbury. For two years I sat next to a fan in MU and passed the time with him, commented on play during the game etc. then at one game, one or the other of us mentioned that our journey had been delayed due to heavy traffic at J9/Bicester. This led to the obvious, "so where do you live then?" turns out he lives near Sainsburys in Banbury, about 1,5km away from me. I often see fellow hoops when shopping in our local Tesco too and have had fans come up to me when they see my No. plate to have a chat.

My son lives in Banbury and is not making the game due to the change of kick off time. He says Danny’s Sport Bar and Grill should be showing it (Bridge St). He describes it as nothing special, bit soulless, and he’s likely going to watch it in the Lamb Inn Bicester instead.

Paddy was living in one of the villages just outside, last I heard.

If you want a decent pint, try the range of Hook Norton ales in the Reindeer.

I don't go to pubs any more but I will ask on the local Facebook community group for suggestions and get back to you.
Update: The Swan and The Musketeer have both been suggested. It would be worth giving them a call to make sure before headings there.if

I'd avoid the Musketeer, even if you're just passing and desperate for a wee. The Swan is in town so walking distance to eateries and other pubs.

There used to be loads. When I was a lad, I used to deliver milk to Michael Wale who had a house in one of the villages.

I'm here now.

Thanks for the suggestions, just heading out from the Premier Inn now to check out The Swan & Danny's sports bar.

I was in Ye Olde Reindeer Inn last night sampling several of those Hook Norton ales, very nice.

Still can't believe none of you have invited me round to your house to watch it.
