Feeling hot, hot, hot? From sunny mound strolls and historic Castle events to fresh iced treats and golden hour al fresco dinners, here’s everything that’s hot this season at Oxford Castle Quarter.
Too cool for school
The summer holidays are fast approaching, and the pressure to keep little ones entertained all summer long is heating up. But fear not! Oxford Castle has you covered. Bring the family along on a daily guided tour, see if you have what it takes to become a saviour of the realm at Knight school, or join our Shakespeare festival for a live showing of Twelfth Night, Much Ado About Nothing or the Merry Wives of Windsor.
Fresh flavours
Summer has arrived at Jericho Coffee Traders, and it’s shaping up to be a tasty few months ahead. Hit refresh with a range of epciality iced coffees, treat yourself to a moreish sugary treat or grab a tasty toasty to enjoy on the mound while overlooking views of Oxford.
Ahh, al fresco
July is here and sunset hour is stretched into the late evening, making Slug and Lettuce the perfect place to snap some cute pics and dig in to light bites with your besties. Just grab a seat outside in the quarter and try some of the brand new summer dishes on the menu, including dreamy brunch quesadillas, loaded fries three ways, mexican chicken burgers and brand new pancake stacks.
Sun-sational strolls
There’s nothing like a stroll around Oxford Castle’s gardens at the height of summer. Bring your favourite people for a sunny stroll and maybe even do some wildlife spotting on the mound (it’s known to be home to beautiful butterflies and a whole ghost of colourself wildlife).
