As well as selection of real ales and ciders: they have a Big Stage, professional sound system set-up with on-site sound technician. All quality (mainly local) musicians.
Active Campaign
The current owners of the pub have decided to retire in June and are required to give the village the first opportunity to purchase it and its entire site under the terms of the ACV (Asset of Community Value) order secured by the Tackley parish council. This Community Group has been formed to negotiate with the owners of the Gardiner Arms, to purchase the pub for the village, to be run as a community pub. See the group's website for more details.
