The Bear Hotel in Wantage has overlooked the historic Market Place since the 16th century and was a staging point for travellers for hundreds of years. Today it is a hotel, bar and restaurant with 34 en suite rooms, serving coffee and tea in the morning, real ale in the evening, British food, breakfast and Sunday lunch.
It has function rooms and hosts weddings, christenings and parties, with menus shaped around each event rather than fixed. There is free Wi-Fi and sport on TV.
