Event spaces
Private Dining Room – Ideal for special occasions, intimate celebrations, and business lunches or dinners, this elegant room offers warm pub interiors and views towards the river. With flexible layouts, it can be set for sit‑down meals, presentations, or relaxed drinks with your guests.
Pergola Terrace – The heated and covered pergola terrace is a semi‑outdoor space that works in all seasons, perfect for casual parties, drinks receptions, and social gatherings by the water. Overlooking the river, it’s a great option if you want an informal feel with fresh air and a lively atmosphere.
Riverside Beer Garden – Our spacious riverside beer gardens are ideal for larger groups, summer parties, and alfresco celebrations with friends, family, or colleagues. In warmer months the garden comes alive with outdoor dining, street‑food inspired dishes from our garden kiosk, and a buzzing atmosphere by the Cherwell.
Whole venue hire – For big birthdays, company parties, and large‑scale celebrations, you can hire The Victoria Arms and its gardens exclusively. Treat your guests to a classic Oxfordshire riverside pub experience with flexible food and drink packages built around your plans.
