If you are looking for a charming little gastro-pub in beautiful surroundings set in a building with charming rustic character, this is the place for you! The attention to detail is absolutely excellent at the inn and you really feel like a valued customer when you are there. The staff are extremely welcoming and knowledgeable on the options available as well, so cannot praise them highly enough. Unusually for a place like this, there was an entire separate vegan menu - something I always appreciate! The food was generally very high standard, though the dessert was not to my taste personally. The facilities were extremely clean and generally my partner and I found the whole experience exceptional. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Oxford!Thanks so much for your kind review, ou have summed us up rather nicely! Glad to hear you appreciated our lovely vegan menu,it is so important our vegan guests are well catered for. We very much look forward to seeing you again soon.

Great place to bring a dog, park just around the corner. The food is good and reasonably priced. Staff are friendly however the surrounding tables didn't get cleared until people actually sat on them.Hey Jessica,Sorry about the table situation! We're usually super on it with clearing tables but it may have been quite busy and we haven't yet tended to it yet. We hope to see you again soon

I googled best pubs in Oxford and decided to book this one, Iâm so glad I did - excellent fantastic place! It is set in the beautiful Oxfordshire village of Toot Baldon. It overlooks stunning views of Oxfordshire countryside. Everything from the welcome the service and the food was absolutely fabulous. We ordered roast beef, lamb & chicken. The roast potatoes were excellent and tasted home made the Yorkshire puddings freshly cooked and crispy. The meat was cooked to perfection. The vegetables were unbelievably nice too. My only dislike was the parsnip pure - Unfortunately my husband was looking forward to the cheesecake but they had run out, it gives us a good excuse to come back when visiting our daughter who is at university in Oxford - our lunch was Absolutely superb we will highly recommend to all our friends and family. I want to Thank the manager, I didnât get his name but he was from Russia for great service & look forward to visiting soon!Thanks so much for your feedback and so glad you enjoyed your visit, sorry that we were out of cheesecake, and yes definitely gives you an excuse to come back soon, we look forward to seeing you

Perfectly cooked (medium rare) steak served with delicious sides, including some of the best cabbage I've ever eaten. The vegetarian platter was equally impressive! Prices are very reasonable considering the quality (and quantity) of food. Warm, homely atmosphere and a perfect spot to share a tasty meal with friends. Very glad to have found the Chester - I'll be back. :)

An honest pub in the community of Florence park.
Reviewed By Marek T
We had heard good things about this Hampstead-style upmarket bar/restaurant, all happily confirmed during a spontaneous trip to Oxford. Great food promptly delivered, and a friendly atmosphere which made for a very pleasant experience. Caters for vegans, vegetarians & flexitarians as well as carnivores. Lovely selection of real ales and ciders. Is it enough reason to move to Oxford? Probably!

The home of CRAFT Burger Oxford in Headington. Serving up freshly ground burgers daily, in an awesome environment and by some great people!
Reviewed By SB01
Discovered this unassuming restaurant while looking for somewhere to eat near Oxford Brookes Uni. From the outside it looks nothing special, and the interior is kind of industrial, but it serves amazing burgers, all made on site. There is a long list, including beef, chicken, pork and veggie, all served in a nice brioche with an excellent selection of sauces in the build. I had the Al Capone, which was panko coated chicken, with mozzarella, pesto and bacon. Fantastic. Nice sides including slaw, various fries, salads etc. The bar has good beers on tap and in bottle. They run on a skeleton crew of staff, but our server was very efficient and relentlessly cheerful. They also serve weekend brunch, which no doubt is frequented by hungover students.Hi SB01!Thank you very much for taking time to review your experience at C.R.A.F.T. We work really hard to offer the best food in the best possible environment, so I am happy to see that reflected on your last visit. I made sure that your server got the recognition he deserved. Can't wait for you to come back and try more of our deliciousness!Best wishes,James

GLUT is a new, independent start up restaurant serving sinfully good homemade American comfort food to Oxford!
Reviewed By jim2424
The service was fine. The waitress was pleasant enough. The restaurant was relatively clean, but it's really a borderline fast food restaurant, in my opinion. The burgers were good. Not great. They did have gluten free options for those who have the allergy. For a quick bite. Yes, it's a pretty good burger.

Thanks to Trip Advisor reviewers for recommending this lovely restaurant. Chose starter and main from set menu; leek and mushroom in pastry then the trout and peach Melba for pudding. Highly recommended especially if you walk there along the canals on a beautiful fall evening.
