Missing the homeland, or just after an old-fashioned pint at old-fashioned prices (and perhaps a game of darts)?

Opposite the Crown House, east Oxfords Irish social club (see Shamrock bar, below), the Swan is not for the faint-hearted - but once adopted by the publicans, youll find it warm and friendly.
