There’s a particular pleasure in watching cricket unfold over a long afternoon with a pint in hand and a crowd around you who actually understand the game. Oakwood Hotel shows cricket live in The Pub, just outside Gloucester in Twigworth, a short drive from Upton upon Severn.
Test matches, T20 internationals, The Hundred — we show the major fixtures on proper screens in a room built for exactly this kind of long-form viewing. The Pub has the character of a genuine local rather than a generic sports bar. We start screenings on time, keep the sound up, and the kitchen runs throughout play.
Cricket asks more of a venue than most sports — a session can run for hours, and we’ve built the offering with that in mind. Our drinks range spans cask ales and lagers through to wines, spirits, and a full soft drinks selection.
Expect sharing boards, proper burgers, fish and chips, and lighter bites for anyone who just wants something to pick at between overs, all drawing on Gloucestershire produce where we can.
Cricket screenings tend to gather groups — a cricket club’s own social, colleagues after work, or friends who’ve turned a fixture into a standing weekly meet-up. The Pub handles larger groups comfortably, and it’s worth booking ahead for a guaranteed spot. For bigger gatherings, our occasions and events team can help.
Guests coming from Upton upon Severn for a big fixture sometimes prefer not to make the drive home after a long day of cricket. Our rooms are available on-site.
