Best KPortal Reviews
Pop in for a quick drink four beers one red wine and one ale I had a ale the glass was discussing and the toilets well I've never seen or been in one so dirty I was shocked the whole pub just felt dirty
Friendly music pub with nice ales and a good choice of other options. Gigs in the upstairs room most nights include music, comedy, talks, and more. Downstairs back bar has open mic, folk, and similar. Courtyard back garden provides the perfect chill space between bands. Essential stop off for anyone exploring Oxford's Cowley Road music scene.
The man at the bar seemed to think that it was OK to have a conversation instead of taking our order. Also there were a total of five drinks on tap, none of which were ales (just lager or cider). The epitome of oxford, supposedly high class and intelligent, but really socially stunted, incapable and inadequate. I bet I get a message from management from management saying "please contact us directly", ignoring Google's policy.
The Port is one of the best there ever was. Great live music and an awesome vibe! Catch an event or just go with some mates, it's an Oxford classic.
Awful burger the bun was charcoal black when I sent it back I was asked ‘do I not want it toasted?’ And no apology they sent the same split cold patty back in a new bun that to be fair wasn’t burnt but for £11 burger and small chips I expect much better. My last review here was 4 star which I’ve had to change to 1. Such a shame, place seems to be going down hill food wise. Would no longer recommend eating here. Also my pint was 3/4 full with response and service I got over the burger I did not feel comfortable even asking the moody barmaid to top it.
This pub no longer does food. Only takes card. Nice small music venue. A bit chilly
Saw some live music here. Three bands put on by Devine Schism promotion. The bands we saw were great, but the venue is small (perhaps 50 people max) and it was incredibly hot and stuffy as there was absolutely no ventilation. Sadly this marred the experience (needs sorting).
Port Mahon was always a great pub, with live music and lots of space to hang out and dance but now its Corona time so its not really the same and before it was 5 stars, now its 4 because of few things, they dont serve food and would have liked that, they cant wait for you to finish the drink and go away, feels unfriendly. Overall its a nice pub but not so much now.
