The Hollybush, Witney
The Hollybush is a modern dining pub in the Oxfordshire town of Witney on the edge of the Cotswolds. Part of a small group of independent pubs with includes The Horseshoes, the pub is owned and run by a young local team Luke Champion and Alex Vaughan who have cut their teeth in hospitality in London and come back to their home town.
Set in an 18th-century building with low ceilings and original beams; you'll get a good welcome, excellent local food and thoughtful wines and local ales. New head chef, Simon Bradley, has joined recently and creates inventive menus which are big on local seasonal produce. Bread and ice cream are all made at the pub. You’ll find reliable pub classics as well as more ambitious dishes.
The large outside space has plenty of tables as well as four luxurious dining houses for small groups - all fully heated and decorated with bespoke furniture and original art.
