ABOUT

A neighbourhood pub co. founded in east Oxford with the Rusty Bicycle, followed a couple of years later with the Rickety Press in Jericho. Having created a proven recipe for great community centred pubs, the company has grown to nine venues, five of which you can find in Oxford and one in Witney. Dodo create awesome neighbourhood pubs where you can walk in anytime with friends and grab a great pizza or burger and a drink or two.

Read about the Dodo story on the Independent Oxford blog.

Leo Johnson Dodo pub co

It all began in 2009 when two friends decided to take on a down-and-out boozer that stank of stale smoke, wet dog and looked like granny’s living room. We quickly realised that creating friendly neighbourhood pubs where locals can walk in anytime and grab an honest plate of food *& drink is where our heart is at. 15 years on, we’re still independent and self funded. We have nine community driven pubs that are rooted in their neighbourhoods and we still love what we do: we hope you do too.

– Leo Johnson, Co-Founder

“Dodo Pub Co. has been a firm family favourite for years. We’re forever bouncing between The Rickety Press, The Rusty Bicycle, and The Up In Arms — and on Sundays, we’ll often end up having lunch in one of the three. Each pub has its own charm, but they all share that same welcoming, laid-back feel that makes them such a big part of our family routine.”
