Welcome

Nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Eaton, The Eight Bells offers a wonderful home from home for locals and tourists alike. Eaton is renowned for its quintessential Oxfordshire charm and its close proximity to the river Thames, as well as easy access to the many neighbouring towns, including Abingdon and Oxford itself.

The Eight Bells is a cosy, friendly pub, offering everything you’d expect from a traditional English pub, including a sumptuous range of bar food, authentic beams, and open fires to warm your cockles on a brisk autumn day or winter’s night.

Eight Bells is a great place to kick back, but its fun, buzzing atmosphere also makes it the first choice for a whole evening’s entertainment. So whether you’re looking for a quiet pint, or a good old knees up with family and friends, The Eight Bells is the place to come.

Tuck in...

Sample our hearty traditional food, including everything from doorstop sandwiches, packed full with tasty fillings, to popular Sunday roasts.

We even provide a full pig roast – either on site or at a location near you – whatever you prefer. We cater for up to 200 guests and roasts can include a real ale bar, a bouncy castle and a marquee. Pig roasts are a popular choice for many occasions, whether birthday party, wedding or corporate event.

Drink up

We have five real ales at The Eight Bells, to give you a literal flavour of local drinking life, and we often host beer festivals.

Enjoy your pint or pinot noir in one of our cosy lounges, or outside in our beer garden. Well behaved dogs are welcome!
