Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Coach & Horses
Historic Hook Norton pub, but given an unexpected light, modern makeover that actually works quite well and is seemingly popular with younger customers too. Excellent choice from the bank of six handpumps, including the Mild (£4.00) and Red Rye in addition to the expected Hooky, Old Hooky and Hooky Gold, plus Rosie's Pig cider.

A modernised pub/bar of little ambiance,wooden flooring,plain white walls and ceiling with down lighters. Six handpumps offering just a couple of beers from Hook Norton, Best and Gold, also two Ciders, Rosies Pig and Flat tyre Rhubarb Cider. Not a place I'm likely to be drawn back to.

A very silly name for the former Coach & Horses,it's a street corner pub in the shopping area of Banbury ,close to both the Banbury Cross pub and a Banksy replica.There has been a modern makeover internally with a lounge area at the front with a number of sofas,some high tables ,a wooden floor and the bar to the right.There is a raised rear section with a mixture of mainly pine furniture,slate flooring and a bench seat running the length of the back wall.There is a walled courtyard to the side.
A Hook Norton tied house with 6 handpumps drawing two real ciders,HN Bitter ,Gold (decent) with a further HN clip reversed and one pump unused.
Lacking in character ,at least my ale was in decent nick but not a pub that I would place high on a revisit list when in Banbury.
