This year’s Spring Pub of the Season has been awarded to the Spire & Spoke in Watlington.

Landlord John Riddell (pictured with branch members Sue and David Cooper and Mike Marr) was thrilled to be presented with the award and continued to say “Thank you for awarding the Spire & Spoke the seasonal award, such and honour! As you know I am proud to show case the wonderful locally brewed ales in South Oxford and surrounding counties. There is a wealth of brewing talent in our area resulting on some exquisite and sometimes thought provoking brews.”

”I have found in the last five years that stocking local breweries has been both financially and culturally beneficial to both parties.”

Many congratulations to John and his team, and we hope for continued success at the pub where the pizza and cakes are just as delicious as the well-kept ales!
