Pope's Tavern

Going to Pope's Tavern tonight to celebrate my 61st Birthday and looking forward to it!

Get yourself over here NOW!!!!!This beautiful, historically significant tavern has been meticulously cared for by its management. Is it obvious the rooms and public spaces are overseen by an architect? YES! The food? ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Worth yelling about. Gorgeous burrata starter, perfectly prepared fish and lip smacking shellfish pasta fra diavlo. Our only pause was at the cannoli. Not traditional, but still yummy.

Dining in the tavern is like an episode of Cheers- cozy and relaxing. Everyone including the staff simply enjoy themselves. Scott and Jeanne, the owners, ensure that you enjoy your meal. Their made in-house pastas are simply wonderful. You will not be disappointed!

Yummy Italian fare and great service. We had New Years Eve dinner that was quite memorable and delicious. Highly recommend if you are in Oxford.

Great local spot where homemade Italian is served with great pride by the owners. A regular spot for us. The chicken parm is truly amazing. I would eat here before I went to the other Italian place in oxford, if you are trying to decide. Oxford can't support two Italian places so you need to take sides and we go to pope's. They treat their regulars really well. The space can be loud with the tin ceiling but they also have outdoor seating when weather permits.

Very friendly and accommodating owners who are carrying on a family tradition! We had an excellent dinner from appetizer (calamari with marinara sauce was perfect - loved the banana pepper on the side), caesar salad, entrees, and tiramisu for dessert which had to have been the best we have ever tried! Extensive wine list with a great selection. We love Italian wines! As a nice bonus, it was Tuesday night with live entertainment. The acoustic guitarist/singer made it a very special evening.Can't wait to go back!

Husband and I went on a Tuesday night, it was Pizza night but we opted for entrees. The food and service were terrific. There was live music, one guy with a guitar playing popular music. We had a cocktail Attlee the bar after dinner and enjoyed great conversation with local people. Hight recommend. Oxford is a lovely little town. This restaurant is a nice walk through town from the ferry.

We had a nice time (despite Storm Ophelia). High Marks on Yelp.Excellent Innkeepers, fine food and wonderful service, great wine-shop and tavern, immaculate -and quiet (except for Ophelia's howling winds). Not a nicer Early American Inn anywhere we've ever stayed.

Very delicious food. In the cutest town Oxford and even serves as an inn. Loved the environment.

Booked a room for the night. Restaurant and bar was closed, so I had to go elsewhere for food. Woke up to no electricity. Of course, that meant no coffee. Showered and dressed in the dark. Left to go find breakfast and passed the owner on the way out who offered no apologies. The room was nice, but $200 for a pillow and blanket? Far from the experience I expected.
