Welcome to The Old Cross Inn, a beautiful country pub set in the heart of the picturesque village of Aston, Oxfordshire, just six miles from Bicester.

The Old Cross is owned and run by husband and wife team, Alex and Ellie Moran. Our aim is to offer you a true home from home experience, whether you are staying in our newly refurbished boutique B&B, enjoying a pint next to the fire or dining in our 35 seat restaurant.

About us

We are passionate about great food, drink and service and believe that The Old Cross Inn is the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy a wonderful dining experience.

We strive to create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere where our guests feel comfortable and at ease. We know that first impressions count so we have completely redecorated the pub to a high standard. The colour scheme is light and airy, with comfortable seating and plenty of natural light.

We have an open kitchen so you can watch your food being prepared, and our dishes are all cooked to order. We use local suppliers wherever possible and our menu changes regularly to reflect the seasons. We also have a great selection of cask ales, wines and spirits to choose from.
