Reviews in Oxfordshire

we absolutely love this restaurant and it's friendly staff. birthdays are a special treat and we are always made to feel so welcome. new years eve was wonderful!

The carvery was a really good meal and excellent value for money. The waitress, chef and reception staff were all friendly and helpful. Would recommend a visit, don't think you will be disappointed if you like British food.

This restaurant is in a beautiful off building on south bar street. The interior is somewhat disappointing in comparison to the outside and we didn't feel that the overall ambiance was quite right. However, the staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was OK if a little bland. We think it could have be tastier and the accompaniments to the poppadoms could be improved. Overall a decent but not superb curry experience

nice ambience and interior. good quality food at reasonable price. a pretty consistent 'chain' dining experience and cant go that far wrong. Pizza was particularly nice.

If you like Indian food this is a must try...The food is different from your average Indian restaurant,cooked how it should be with lovely flavours. The staff very helpful and made you feel warm I had to thank him for a lovely meal All I can say is the chef is highly experienced in this field. Highly Recommended It's very good value

It is wonderful place to eat !! Nice setting and wonderful food and good service. The price is just right.

A quaint family run restaurant that, offers a nice variety of Italian food. Specials of the day given to you in person, by the waiter. fresh produce used. Nice pasta and fish dishes. Staff happy to give more information when asked.

Brothertons offers delicious, authentic Italian cuisine and incredibly friendly service in charming period surroundings. I have dined there twice now and both times was very impressed by the standard of both the food and service -Bernardo, the owner, is welcoming and jovial. Granted, Brothertons is possibly fractionally more expensive than run-of-the-mill Italian restaurants, but you get a superior dining experience for your money. Excellent value all round, I particularly recommend the linguine carbonara.

I have eaten at the Jaypur for many years now and have always been impressed by the food, the service and the price. The staff are happy to answer questions and to tailor dishes to the customer's requirements. I can particularly recommend the Chicken Tikka Masala and Biryani dishes. Their butter chicken is also as delicious (and as naughty) as it sounds! The restaurant itself is intimate and pleasant, (although a little dark), the portions generous and the takeaway service is quick, efficient and friendly, and free within three miles of Banbury. Great value for money.

A lovely village pub set in beautiful countryside. A listed 12th century building set into the village church's grounds. Very well-kept ales and great food at a reasonable price. Regularly changing menu which is completely homemade and locally sourced. Welcoming staff and a friendly atmosphere!

The san carlo was a real family friendly place and i really enjoyed it as did the rest of my family. i highly recommend going there for a meal out. The food is amazing! you must try the brussette and the pizzas are great too (although quite large)

Always a very warm welcome from yasmin the owner who spends her time making you feel welcome. Nothing is to much trouble for her or her staff. the food is wonderful and good value. We have had a take away or sit down meal every weekend for 10 years!!!

This was comfortably the worst meal and service I have ever experienced. The meals did not arrive together. The waiter didn't concentrate on getting the order correct - he just didn't care at all. 3 separate steak sauces were only very slightly lukewarm. No apology or apparent interest - after warming up they were barely any warmer but the steak was by now cold. The manager took nearly ten minutes to arrive and although he offered free deserts he seemed to be someone who was fed up with dealing with constant complaints. I will not be going there again.

The manager and other members of staff in this pub are abusive and not customer friendly, it is not worth visiting this pub under its current management. AVOID THIS PUB.

I have just spent a most uncomfortable evening, not to mention a considerable amount of money for an evening at this 'pub' and would ask readers to seriously reconsider before visiting it themselves. A few points... The restaurant was extremely cold. One of our party kept her coat - and boots - on all evening. When we mentioned this to the waitress we were told that other diners would be arriving shortly and that the place would 'warm up soon'. We were charged over £7 for a 250ml glass of average house wine and over £4 for a glass of orange and soda. The food was fairly dire, over-salted and almost all directly from the freezer. From my seat I had a clear view of the kitchens which were, at all times, nothing more than serving areas with absolutely no evidence of food being freshly cooked. One saving grace - as the deserts were all very heavy I asked for some fresh fruit. This arrived and was well presented. On a Monday evening - albeit before Christmas - and with over half the resaurant empty, the only 'choice' was the 'Christmas meal' at over £25. Being part of a small group of colleagues and, being at the Moon and Sixpence as a result of the arrangements of a fellow colleague, it felt very uncomfortable complaining on the spot. This will not prevent me from voicing my concerns to the management at the earliest opportunity

What a yummy addition to East Oxford! Beautifully delicious food at moderate prices, some nice inexpensive wine too. For ladies who lunch there is a menu for £5.95 - main course and a drink (forget about coke - anything - beer, house wine, coffee...... They have a good selection of vegetarian dishes including a stuffed potato pancake which could convert anyone. My favourite main dish is crab, no; chicken, no; prawn, no ..........oh hell! Just go there and try them all and a chocolate pud TO DIE FOR........ ps. Did I mention the flamingos in the women's lavatory...

Food is traditional pub food. Excellent portions and get value for money. Food is really nice and pub is lovely especially now as the fire is always lit and its real. Its cozy and friendly and everyone makes you feel welcome. Highly recommend the homemade chili or steak and kidney pie

Over the last couple of years the Cori restaurant has become our little ray of sunshine. As the English Summers go from bad to worse and the winters get wetter and more miserable, our family has found that a meal at the Cori with Angelo and his family is an ideal tonic. Within minutes of entering the restaurant, a wave of bonhomie washes over you and you feel as if you could be seating in a coast-side Bistro out of the sun with the Mediterranean gently lapping up the beach outside. Nowhere other than the Mediterranean are you given such a welcome. The restaurant's food, which is superb, is matched by Angelo's hospitality and attention to your every whim and fancy. By the end of the meal, with the a glass or two of limoncello consumed, the only downside is that when you walk out of the restaurant it is not the azure blue sea that awaits you but another dismal day in Banbury. We had promised to keep this little paradise to our family, but feel guilty keeping the secret. The Gregory Family
