Three Pigeons

The Three Pigeons is a beautiful 17th-century thatched coaching inn situated in Banbury town centre, which having been purchased by private owners underwent a major renovation to a very high standard after many years of neglect at the hands of a major pub company, reopening in 2012. Four handpumps adorn the bar, serving a selection of local and national ales (two regulars and two changing). There is also an interesting menu of high quality food, and three luxury bedrooms make it a good base for a relaxing break.
