Alfresco Dining and Drinking in the Heart of Oxford
Al Fresco Dining
There’s nothing better than enjoying fantastic food and drink with the sun glowing down on you. We have two dining areas, Cornmarket and St. Michael Street.
Both are overlooked by the tower of St Michael’s, one of the oldest buildings in Oxford, dating back to the Saxon times and nearly 1,000 years old.
Take advantage of the beautiful Oxford surroundings and enjoy our affordable and Michelin Star quality food in our accommodating and beautifully designed outdoor dining areas.
Even when the weather isn’t at its best, we have parasols to help protect you from the elements. So, whatever the forecast, you can arrive knowing you’ll be well taken care of by our considerate staff.
With excellent waiter service on hand and spacious and social distanced seating, we have everything needed to make sure your meal with us is a truly wonderful experience, as well as being safe in accordance with the current climate.

Outside Ambience
Soak up the tantalizing ambience of our outside restaurant. Like the city of Oxford itself, our outdoor dining area is idyllic, with fabulous views and a certain charm that can only be found at The Plough at 38.
Oxford is known for its sociable buzz accompanied with an air of sophistication, so you’ll easily get whisked up in the culture and effervescent nature of the city. As you take a seat you can gaze as the world passes you by and watch the people that truly make the city what it is.
Whatever reason for your visit, we want to have the best experience possible, and we will do everything we can to make your time with us as enjoyable and memorable as possible.
