Welcome to the Akeman Inn
Named after the ancient Roman road upon which it resides, The Akeman Inn in Kingswood existed as a coaching inn for 200 years, until the mid-19th century. Situated between Bicester and Aylesbury, this substantial building offers a lounge and bar area with a range of comfortable seating options and open fireplace, a modern restaurant with timber beams and an open kitchen, views of open countryside, and ample parking.
We serve a seasonal, Mediterranean-inspired menu based on sustainable, quality ingredients. Traceable from farm to fork, our meat and poultry come from British farms, our eggs are free range, and our fish is responsibly sourced from suppliers approved by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). An extensive range and variety of dishes are made in our open kitchen, which features a charcoal-fuelled Josper grill, while our trained pizzaiolos freshly prepare and cook Neapolitan pizza in our bespoke wood-fired oven.
Sympathetically designed, and with the low timber beams intact, our lounge and bar area provides a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, from coffee brewed with Rainforest Alliance certified ThreeSixty Rainforest Blend, to the finest Dom Pérignon. A range of lighter nibbles such as Halloumi chips, pork belly bites, and Focaccia Al Aglio are served all day.
In our car park you'll find a Vehicle Charging point provided by Pod Point making The Akeman Inn the perfect pitstop for both you and your electric vehicle.
The Akeman Inn proudly sponsors our local Westcott Cricket Club.

Acorn Pubs
Acorn pubs are a collection of 10 pubs, 6 of which offer bedrooms, which sit primarily in the home counties. We could be described as ‘modern pubs’, with an extensive range of draft beers, wines and cocktails with a great menu of freshly cooked Mediterranean-inspired food, which centres around our wood-fired ovens and charcoal grills, using traditional cooking techniques and sustainably sourced produce.
Our buildings range from modern to historic, all rejuvenated into contemporary spaces that fit the needs of the communities they serve.
Whether our customers are catching up with friends over drinks, treating the family to Sunday roast in our restaurant, or escaping for a couple of nights to one of our hotels, we pride ourselves on offering the perfect, quality environment to suit, and warm, friendly hospitality.
