This is an awful Brewers Fayre found next to a Premier Inn, probably one of the few that still lets in the general public. The counter runs across the rear wall and a strip of seating to the right of the entrance is designated as the bar area. The rest of this sprawling pub is for dining. Standard keg was available alongside Birra Moretti and Madri and one of the two hand pumps was in operation drawing Doom Bar. The service was just plain rude from the young staff. I ordered half a generic lager and was beckoned to the till a few metres to the right to pay. Another member of staff then poured my drink and placed it where I was originally standing with no acknowledgment to me, so I had to walk back up the bar to enquire if it was actually my drink. Then after sitting for five minutes at a table directly opposite the bar, right by the entrance, I was asked to move to the other side of the entrance walkway into the ‘bar seating’. There were twenty or so people in here, drinkers knocking back a fair few. So the staff decided to close early ringing last orders at 21:10 with one of them stating that it had been a long day, bejesus woman. This place is on its way out and I’ll be surprised if it’s operating as it is for much longer.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Brewers Fayre Bicester
Utterly routine pub / restaurant beside a Premier Inn on the southern outskirts of town, with bland corporate furniture and décor throughout. The only good point to note is that it does at least still do a cask ale, albeit in the form of Doom Bar (£4.40).

Built on the outskirts of Bicester and a tiptoed glance away from its overrated Outlet Shopping Village, this is a standalone part of a Premier Inn, with the usual Brewers Fayre trappings, although Ringwood Forty Niner on (and Black Sheep Bitter reversed) made a change from the usual Doom Bar / London Pride afterthought. The score remains low however due to the unnecessary inter-staff bickering which precluded me being served - the server very much pissed off as they *had* to serve me rather than his co-workers.
