Not really sure if this is a pub, bar or restaurant. Seems to all be going on at once. Staff were really attentive, polite & chatty, that's definitely the big positive! We both had starters & a main with a pint each. Was quite shocked when the bill came to £85, included a £7.50 service charge. I paid because the staff were the positive.

Half a pint of beer which was shockingly bad & half a pint of cider £7.95 Should be ashamed Terrible , not the staffs fault but I don’t know how they exist in this climate.

Top bar with amazing cocktails. However, not sure what type of bar it is. Didn’t eat here but had great drinks. But at one point it’s dinners only and then all of a sudden it becomes a city cocktail bar. However it isn’t large enough to cater for both. Decent place over all.

Went here for drinks in November 2023 and again in April 2024 on our holidays. The drinks are of high standard, as are the staff. They are attentitive to detail with cocktails and shots. The atmosphere is lively compared to other places in town. A quick nod to Dave the waiter who dropped us off in November back at the Golf & Spa Hotel when we couldn't get a taxi. Thanks again. Will definitely return on our next holiday!

I don’t like giving negative comments but I can only be truthful.My wife and I called in for lunch following the reopening of indoor service. We were really looking forward to going back - as we’d been before and enjoyed it.To begin with, the staff were spot on - as previous!My wife ordered the soup and I ordered a burger. Unfortunately, after shortly tucking in to the said burger. It wasn’t cooked fully, so I asked for it to be cooked further - which was done without question.It was returned and I tucked in. However, there was just something about the taste which just didn’t seem quite right - but still plowed on. We’d had a busy day, and were in bed by 9.30 pm. It was at 11.30pm when I woke and was sweating profusely. I realised I was in trouble, and without going into detail, I had the most terrible upset stomach.In hindsight, I wish I’d just returned it and switched to another dish. My burger was unquestionably the cause as I’d eaten nothing at all that would cause this.I will go back but maybe not to eat a burger!!

Had the Christmas lunch for £10. I'm usually disappointed with a Christmas meal out but this was really good . Turkey was thick slices with stuffing, pigs in blankets, lots of fresh vegetables, jug of gravy, the only thing missing was bread sauce. I will be going again.

Ate here on a Friday evening, chain at the door stopping people coming in, screen between tables that were too small so not sure why bother? Ordered a starter and a main (food was ok) when we had finished the main course we asked the waitress for another drink and said we needed 10 mins before we looked at desert. She returned to the table and said we could only order a drink if there was a food order, which was strange because we had just eaten 2 courses and were having a break before dessert! We decided not to bother, the Manager came over and said he wished he could serve us but it was the rules. I understand that rules are rules but at least get the Staff to explain this when ordering, there were a couple of Lawyers on the next table who said, we should have just left a few chips and said we hadn't finished, apparently that's ok.It was a real shame, especially as we went to the Blue Boar the following evening who had all the COVID procedures in place, everyone well spaced out and no pressure to order food when ordering a drink between courses. A totally different experience, following the same rules just with some common sense applied (surely If I say can we have a 10 minute break, I'm signalling that we haven't finished?

There are two types of pubs in the Cotswolds, those who target the tourist trade, and those where locals go and tourists are welcome. B+T is definitely the latter. A pub enjoyed by locals and offers a welcome to visitors alike.I've been to B+T a lot lately, for breakfast, whiling away an afternoon meeting friends over a bottle of wine, to an evening meal and cocktails. All first class.The pub has introduced a one way system inside to create space. When you arrive you are met at the door, taken to your table where table service is provided. I can't fault the service or food and drink I purchased.I highly recommend the B+T breakfast.

The flatbreads were so heavily coated with flour on the underside that they were virtually inedible and the toppings were scant were very little flavour. Soup of the day should have been renamed Basil and Tomato. Even if the food had been better it was still pricey. The staff were friendly, toilets clean and Covid restrictions well adhered to.

The menu is great with lots of vegan options (the Bang bang cauliflower is delicious), great service and they have made a lot of effort going above and beyond to run a safe space with one way systems, making an effort not to touch cutlery, proper spacing etc. Also great service and lovely staff.

We had an overnight stop on our way north in Chipping Norton and booked B&T purely based on the number of veggie options on the menu. The staff were extremely friendly. it was our first meal out since restaurants and bars have opened and it felt very safe and well organised. The pescatarian menu choices were so appealing that we ordered 4 of the starters and adapted a main course and shared it all 'tapas style between us. Not one of the dishes was disappointing. We had a couple of hours' slot and because the service was so good we didn't feel at all rushed. It was a very pleasant meal and experience.

Had an enjoyable family evening at Bitter and Twisted to celebrate my daughters 19th birthday, more for the company than the venue. Was great to be able to eat out after such a long lock down. We are v difficult as all vegan and some gluten free but we all found something to eat, albeit limited choice. Food tasty if simple only issue was over zealous waiting staff who insisted on ID for my 19 year old daughter to have a glass of Prosecco. The law is clear that you need only be 16 to have a drink with your parents while having dinner. We offered a soft copy of her passport but the waitress refused to even look, v poor customer service and ultimately cost the bar the £30 we were about to spend on the bottle.

I went to the Bitter & Twisted today, the last time I had been in there it was the Bunch of Grapes! Chippy was still quiet but my spirits were raised when I popped in the B&T. They had sensible but not prescriptive arrangements for social distancing. I was given a warm welcome and the full English was fab. Never bet against Britain and its great pubs even in these mad times.

We stayed in Chipping Norton for a couple of nights last week and we always like to try different places to eat. After looking around the village we decided on this pub. Good choice. The menu is varied and the food was great. I had half roast chicken which was the biggest I’ve ever had (and I often have this at eateries). I was told it would take about 25 mins which I don’t mind waiting when they tell you in advance. It was worth waiting for, it was delicious. My husband had the scampi and that was good to, in fact I’ve never seen a scampi meal with so much on as usually you only get about 6 pieces of scampi on a plate! Also the staff were lovely which made it a very enjoyable evening. I would recommend anyone giving it a try if in the area.

I love the atmosphere and the cocktail menu. Food is ok, sometimes better than ok, and always reasonably priced. I have always been served courteously and promptly, whether as a couple, family or group of friends. A really lovely cocktail menu means that even if we are eating elsewhere, I am tempted to pop in here first and sometimes even afterwards as well. It’s two minutes walk from the delightful Chipping Norton theatre so it would almost be rude not to... the creamy cocktails are better than any dessert in my opinion! My kids live the burgers and fries and there is always a good specials menu.

We visited on a Sunday evening around 5pm. I had the Sea Bass, my wife had a Pizza. Both meals were excellent. We had a couple of drinks each and the bill was just under £50. We left at around 6.30. By then the place was almost full with some people waiting for a table, so go early. Good food, good service and good atmosphere. We will return.

Very friendly staff but disappointing and below average 'pub grub'. I ordered a vegan burger which was tiny and most of the plate was full of fries. My starter was ciabatta and hummus which was bland and again disappointing. I wouldn't return as despite the lovely staff, the food was below average. Friend ordered different food but had the same opinion. 3 stars are for the friendliness. Food would be 2 stars.

My husband and I were having a few days away from home visiting the Cotswolds and we found the restaurant by chance. We ate here on what we thought would be a quiet Monday night but the restaurant was very busy with pre theatre diners and there was a lovely cheerful atmosphere. My sea bass fillets with char grilled broccoli were cooked perfectly and my husband tucked into a very large portion of carbonara with plenty of smoked bacon. The two staff on duty coped very well with the number of diners and always looked like they were in control and not stressed. Around 7.30 the restaurant all but emptied and we decided to stay for dessert. The warm chocolate brownie with ice cream finished off the evening very nicely. Top marks to the chef for our marvellous meal and ten out of ten for the excellent customer service provided by the young waiter and waitress who were on duty that evening. We would not hesitate to recommend the restaurant to friends and family and we hope to return in the near future.

We were staying at a nearby hotel and thought we would call to view the menu. When we first went through the door, we were in an unmanned hotel reception. We followed the noise of people talking to the bar where we ordered a pint of larger and a glass of Zinfandel. Unfortunately the bar staff wasn’t sure what Zinfandel was! Once this was sorted we took a seat. The room was lovely and warm with an open fire.

We needed to eat early on Saturday prior to a concert at 7pm. This was one of the few places in Chipping Norton open for a supper at 5pm.

Having lived in the Cotswolds for nearly a year, I finally visited Bitter and Twisted after hearing about from a foodie friend. And...first of all, what a Menu! So many options and so many vegetarian ones, so a big bow for that. I had the baked camembert with olive and rosemary flatbread and tomato chutney - just to write that I am drooling, it was absolutely amazing. Then, as if I wasn't already absolutely full, came the Moving Mountains Vegan burger with sweet potato friends.. and again, a 10/10. I'll be back for more and will spread the word as I always do!

We stopped here for a light lunch, ideally a sandwich or small snack. The outside appearance is inviting, and inside a lot of care has obviously been taken to modernise. Our only criticism is the overwhelming prevalence of high tables, benches and stools - not to easy to get onto. There was a good variety of food in the menu but e were disappointed in our desire fir a light lunch. The only sandwiches available came with a cup of soup and chips. Hardly a light option.

We really loved that we could all choose 2 different sides - the chilli, salted corn on cob was divine. The unusual green salad too. never thought I would be excited over 2 sides ! Steaks cooked perfectly, chicken moist, lobster fabulous, jerk flatbread great too. Certainly the best place we have eaten in Chipping Norton - can't wait for a return visit.

Have been meaning to leave this place a review because they ticked all the boxes on a chance visit, and I can't recommend them enough. Loved the food and the service - nothing was too much trouble. The best Vegetarian menu I've seen EVER - these people go above and beyond and I will be back for the amazing pasta!

Visited for a quick lunch and enjoyed the vast amount of choice on the menu. As a coeliac I felt normal when ordering my food for once. The portions were large and the food was lovely! Was very busy but staff made us feel comfortable and welcome! Would recommend to anyone.

On the way home from a weekend in the Cotswolds, stopped here for breakfast. What fantastic value, very reasonable size English breakfast for £5.00, freshly cooked, it was delicious, such good value considering what we had spent elsewhere. Lovely clean bar and seating areas. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic little find in the centre of Chipping Norton. Food is fantastic, staff are amazing and super friendly and they have a great selection of wine. I also love their little mac and cheese bites.

Really liked this place, the food is simple - not fancy just standard grub. The cocktails are amazing, a good selection and really well priced. Staff were friendly and helpful. We'd definitely come back.

First time in Chipping Norton and so glad i called at Bitter & Twisted. Great food & drink, very friendly and efficient staff and a fantastic atmosphere! Very busy but wasn't kept waiting to be served. Will definitely come back on my next visit!

After a trip to chipping Norton we decided to get some food, but being a Friday night everywhere was very busy, we stopped by bitter and twisted and even though they were very busy said they could fit us in. Ordered and food arrived promptly and all cooked amazingly. Very impressed with the service as you could see they were busy but didn't rush us and were very helpful and polite.

Can’t comment on the food because we didn’t eat here but I was impressed with the cocktail menu, so many to choose from. Had a passion fruit martini which was delicious! Would definitely return for drinks

Mały lokalny pub w centrum. Jedzenie w wielu opcjach i wariantach. Dość ciasno ale jest szansa na prywatną rozmowe. Dobry burger. Obsługa stosunkowo miła.

We were surprised how busy this place was for a wed at five. However the service was still quick and staff took the time to help. The main menu had all gluten free options clearly marked, however they were not marked on the specials menu, but the waiter was able to quickly check that the dish was gluten free or adaptable. Both enjoyed our meals, I was unable to finish mine as the portion was generous. The other half had no problem finishing his off.

We visited Bitter and Twisted on Easter Monday in glorious weather. We sat in the rear courtyard and enjoyed a superb lunch. The vegetarian choices were excellent and innovative. Accompanied by excellent wine and friendly service this was a lovely experience. Highly recommended.

Good lunch selection. Very nice salads and a good choice of panini. It’s not very clear when you go in what to do if you want to sit inside to eat as all the boards are headed up as takeaway menus. The seating area is really just there to eat the takeaway - so order what you’d like and then take it through to eat. It might be good to make this clearer for customers especially when it’s busy. Overall though the food and coffee were delicious so well worth a lunch stop.

Three phone conversations with the hotel management eventually confirmed that a Sunday roast could be obtained in the Terrace resturant. A table for 7 was booked and confirmed.On arrival the Terrace resturant was set up for a wedding ceremony. No other dining tables were apparent. On querying this with bar staff we were abruptly told "not our problem".Eventually found a deputy manager who set about laying up a dining table amongst the wedding guests ! Meanwhile we tried other local venues but couldn't get in within our timescale.We eventually sat for our anticipated Sunday lunch in a crowded golf club bar surrounded by a multitude of wedding guests.The food was obviously recently pulled out of the freezer, looked and tasted same ! HOPELESS !!We recommend training for front of house management in the art of coordination and courtesy for members of the bar staff.

The food was very good. the decor and place is nice. we were only a table of 6 adults but the food was very very slow to come out. nearly an hour wait for out roasts and 40 mins wait for puddings. the service was good but again we constantly had to ask more than once for things but we would come again ps don’t order the eton mess if you are expecting normal eaton mess. no mention of it being sorbet.

Unwelcoming from the staff. Afternoon tea was limited to one very small pot of tea person with only 4 choices of tea. Egg mayo and salmon in tiny rolls and pureed! One delicious coronation chicken finger sandwich but then an unappetising cucumber and mint one. The rolls were tiny. Scones were nice. Cakes also tiny. People who wanted to take cakes home were provided with boxes meant for wraps. Not value for money and not the pleasant experience we had two years ago.
