King's Arms, Grade II listed pub in Oxford, England
The King's Arms stands at the intersection of Parks Road and Holywell Street, opposite the New Bodleian Library in central Oxford.
The establishment dates back to 1607 when Thomas Franklyn obtained a license to open an inn named after King James I of England.
University professors conducted academic tutorials in the back bar until 1973, when women were first permitted to enter this previously male-only space.
The pub operates daily from 10:30 AM to midnight, serving traditional British food and maintaining a selection of cask ales throughout the year.
Local stories suggest that this pub, owned by Wadham College, contains the highest concentration of academic intelligence per square foot among global establishments.
