Komakino . left this review about The Shakespeare
Probably the roughest of the estate pubs that surround Bicester's town centre. A large two-roomed affair that appeared to have people dining to the right and the left being kept solely as a bar area, although the size of the place gives off more of a social club vibe complete with tatty carpet. There's an annex out back which holds two pool tables (one blue baize, one purple) and a PL match showed on various screens. Ales limited to Sharp's Doom Bar and Atlantic, and despite the basic surrounds, the two bar ladies provided affable, smiling service.
