Welcome to Jude the Obscure pub, a family-friendly spot with delicious dining and a welcoming charm in the heart of the Oxford suburb of Jericho. Our pub originally opened in 1871 as The Prince of Wales but we earned our unique name almost 30 years ago to celebrate the local associations with Thomas Hardy's literary classic. Book a table and enjoy a dish from our pub food menu or treat yourself to a drink from our well-stocked bar, with a generous array of beers from local craft breweries White Horse and Siren, as well as our popular house brew Obscurity. We've got TNT Sports and Sky Sports showing the latest action, plus our huge beer garden is a gorgeous spot to seize the summer sunshine, with heated shelter if the weather takes a turn.
Join us for all the footy action across all the leagues, from the Premier League to the EFL, WSL and European competitions, not to mention all the internationals too!
From fruity cocktails to crisp ciders, our spring drinks are strictly here for a good time, not a long time. Swing by and sip something seasonal while the sun's out.
