The Angel, Witney

Half timbered and dark wood and plaster interior with traditional pub furnishings, this is bigger inside than you'd expect as it goes back for a long way. The décor is the usual traditional pub mix of old photos, prints, plates nic-nacs and less traditionally some racing tickets and a big screen with Sky Sports. This is on even during the popular Sunday night quiz (with the sound off). The counter is in a corner at the front with 2 T-Bars and four handpumps, the ales from the Marston's stable, including, Mansfield, Brakspears and Angel Ale which I take to be a badge engineered Marston's beer. The Old Empire I enjoyed was extremely good, as was the service from the tottyilicous staff.
