Boswell's Cafe in South Oxfordshire

Great food. Great serves. And smiles from all the staff. Trainee on the coffee machine and served a great Latte. Thank you for starting our weekend with a full English breakfast

We go to Boswells regularly, the staff are always lovely and the food is usually good. Unfortunately, today, my partners ham baguette was seriously substandard. We understand the cost of everything has gone up, but when you pay £5.60 for a ham and pickle baguette, you kind of expect there to be a reasonable amount of ham to pickle ratio. Come on guys, stop being stingy with the ham - said by a good veggie who had an egg baguette.

Great spot and friendly. Milk jugs don't look clean but I assume they are. Very nice breakfast and coffee.

Great all day everyday. Lovely staff great food. Very welcoming. Perfect for bringing all the family to or just a quiet coffee on your own.

Popped in for a sandwich, coffee & cake. The staff are friendly , make you feel very comfortable. Choice of meals & sandwiches very good. Could do with a bigger selection of cake. But what they do have is excellent.

Great little cafe all round and not over-priced. Nice change to have traditional light and freshly prepared options that the ubiquitous establishments don’t offer. My new go-to place for a quick bite.

I ordered an all day breakfast and cup of tea at this nice establishment. The service and food were of a good standard. I found it to be an enjoyable experience and would eat here again if in the area.

Exellient food , waiting time was minimal and staff were friendly and attentive without being over bearing

I went here for a group breakfast a couple of weeks ago and the experience was tremendous from start to finish. Toni, Paul, Angie and Gemma looked after us and ensured our breakfasts and drinks arrived on time. The food was delicious and provided a great start to the day. All members of the group enjoyed the experience! I would really recommend Boswells as they are adaptable and can work with groups like ours which were above 20 people.

Absolutely brilliant. Came here in a big group with no fuss at all. I had the American breakfast and it was amazing, and I know that the people with English loved it too. All in all great service, food, and experience.

A lively and welcoming cafe with reasonable prices and tasty food, would definitely recommend if you need a lunch/snack in didcot

Over 25 minutes waiting for a baguette, were not that busy but there is a line of how long a person can wait for such a simple baguette especially when on a lunch break. They were not even that busy. Glad the 2 ladies behind the counter found it amusing. Had to leave empty handed and with an empty stomach. Shame.

Our first visit to Didcot and to Boswells. Loved our coffee so decided to return for lunch. Great food and lovely friendly staff. The restaurant was clean and spacious. It was busy with a great atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

We visited for breakfast today for the first time in a few years! The food was epic, probably the best English breakfast in Didcot!

Boswells in Didcot is the best of its kind in the area by a long way. I'm a regular, especially when visiting mine and my partners family. I've never had a bad experience here, and their coffee and cakes are to die for (I'm a little biased towards the carrot cake). The team, especially new starter Courtney are lovely, polite service with a smile even on busy days is what makes this place great.

This has become our Saturday morning breakfast treat. Food is great and good value for money and the staff are excellent. I asked the waiter last week what it was like to work there and he said that he loved it and it certainly shows.

Have been going here fairly regularly for several years mainly for a weekend breakfast treat. Food excellent value and staff very friendly. Would highly recommend

I have had to sign up to trip advisor purely to leave this review. I have worked in the hospitality trade for over ten years now working in hotels across the U.K from London to the Lake District and finally Oxford. I am extremely conscious...

The staff are so friendly, the food / drinks are great. Service is the top quality that you would expect from such a well known established company.

Why oh why can't they wash the milk jugs out. Is there a secret wish to pass food poisoning on to their customers. In this climate it should be of prime consideration let's see what environmental health make of this. There are better places to...

To be fair we came on a bank holiday Monday which was the end of the eat out to help out scheme. The place provides standard quick food shame it didn't arrive all together. Wonder why no one wants to have veg with their meal...

So happy Boswells is back open, love having breakfast there on a Sunday. The food is so scummy and great value for money. The set up for social distancing is brilliant, screens between customers and staff, head visors for waiting staff. Everyone there are so...

Was watching the place the other day while waiting for friends, debating food, and noticed no one had cleaned the outside tables ( I was there for around 20 minutes and there was quite a few staff on - not busy too). When I walked...

This is a friendly little cafe/restaurant serving up very tasty meals. The all day breakfasts are very good.There is not a huge selection of food but what they have is very good.

I came here yesterday with my mum for a spot of lunch they diddnt have the sandwich i wanted but they were lovely enough to make it we had 2 pots of tea a chicken salad mayo sandwich and a tomato cheese pannini, plenty of...

I enjoy coming here for coffee/ tea and a cake. On a hot day, like today, the air conditioning is a must. It feels like a happy, spacious place. I like their range of smoothies, and the carrot booster was delicious. I also appreciated being...

We popped in here for a drink and a little something. We've been several times before and have rarely been disappointed - the only times we have been is when it's too crammed to get a table. This time we just got hot drinks (a...

Was intending to order the fishcakes but previous diners had cleared the allocation. Ordered smoked salmon pate which was delicious. Ths tea was served in a teapot with a basket containing leaf tea. Absolutey flavoursome unlike the usual cheap tea bags that some establishments like...

Had a meal with wifey before going to the cinema just across the road. We had sausage, egg and chips. All very well cooked fresh to order. Sausages were very nice. Very friendly staff. The best cafe in Didcot near to the cinema.

Although not a lot of coffee shops in the vicinity. Boswell stands out for quick service, good coffee and a very good standard of sandwiches and hot food.very friendly service as well

This is a nice little cafe close to the cinema complex.The staff are friendly. We only had coffee and a little snack,and it was fine.

I am literally sitting in Boswell’s halfway through my breakfast and felt compelled to write about it. It is nothing short of perfect. Sausage is super tasty and well cooked, bacon nice and crispy just how I asked, wonderfully sautéed mushrooms and crunchy hash browns sitting next to piping hot baked beans. Even the baby in my tummy has happily started to kick in appreciation. Well done Boswell’s, the place looks lovely and the staff are always eager to please.

The Veggie breakfast here was okay, nothing exceptional. The cafe itself is well spaced out and comfortable to eat in. The staff were friendly and the facilities were clean.

A bit loud and service can be slow, but staff all friendly and coffee is always good Shame sitting outside not really an option anymore due to bus route.

We dropped in as had some time to kill in Didcot. We had a cappuccino and a hot chocolate, both were very nice. Lovely cafe inside too.

Gran Café podría tener más opciones de pasteles, precioso para sentarse fuera, el personal es muy amable aunque están muy ocupados.

Prueba a llamar una vez por semana, si puedo. El personal siempre es amable y la comida siempre es deliciosa. Han sido unas cuantas veces con amigos y también fueron impresionados. Nunca tuvimos que esperar mucho tiempo tampoco para mi comida.

No está mal. El personal era amable y simpático. . Pero la gente. son quizás un poco extraño que extraño quizás por los vapores de la vieja estación de energía

Went on a Sunday morning for a brunch. Had a sausage baguette and my partner had a Brie and bacon panini. Could do with a decent sweep up and a clean, it was decently priced for what we had. Staff were friendly and the food was good.

Visited here on a really busy day and had coffee and snacks with my family. The staff were really friendly and didn't seem too rushed, even though the restaurant was extremely busy. Good value for money and recommended.

Busy cafe serving hot and cold beverages, snacks, meals, cakes, sweet and savoury pastries. Seating available in and outside. Dedicated take away counter. Toilet facilities which also cater for disabled. Staff are always friendly. Free WiFi. Runs a loyalty card scheme for drinks.

It's not really a restaurant but if it were it would be a good un. The manager does an excellent job recruiting some top totty and always having a real fun team harmony in there. The displays are always on point and always looks fresh and appealing. The energy of the team even when the place is rammed as usual is to be commended. It's always a joy to visit that place. Give her a pay rise, she deserves it.

Good value for money and always tasty, we sat outside in the sun which was nice we had this option. Food arrived in a decent time and tasted good.

The staff here are so friendly and efficient, place is spotlessly clean. Food is presented beautifully and tastes fantastic. All the staff are neat and tidy and work in a very clean and hygienic manner. Thoroughly recommend this cafe

Visited Boswells to catch up with a friend. Lovely coffee and the food inside the cafe smelt wonderful! Nice bright modern decor too. Worth a visit!

Located in a shopping precinct it is in a convenient location if you are out shopping in Didcot,it is quite a large Cafe with a reasonably large selection of food but for a cafe it is on the expensive side.

The restaurant/cafe looks lovely however it's very expensive, we have been there twice and both occasions have had to send our food back due to it being cold! Tables were messy and staff talking amongst themselves, no customer interaction just what do you want!

We go here frequently for breakfast at the weekend and a never disappointed. Boswell's is busy and popular on any weekday, Saturday and Sunday. It's by no means fine dining, and the backdrop of Didcot is a little depressing, even on a good day. Railway station, power station, army barracks, that's it. I have seen stolen Boris Bikes, 60 miles from their point of origin, ridden shamelessly around the streets by shaven haired thugs. The town is a haven for single mums, hauling double buggies filled with plump olive skinned toddler Chantelles and Jakes eating crisps for breakfast, followed by a Red Bull chaser. The standard dress code is a pasty and grim face, grey XXL track suit bottoms and neck tattoos. These coupled with greasy hair pulled back in a pony tail or bun, and gold effect Argos hoop earrings. You will often see middle-aged mother and daughter in tandem dressed exactly the same way rushing between Wilkinson's and 99p Stores. The heavy smoking, dry-throat, sallow complexioned mum, heard croaking to the podgy teenage daughter that "the Council never done nuffink!" Lunch for them is a Gregg's gravy and pastry slice eaten on the bovine hoof, straight out of the bag. It is not a pretty sight.Right on the corner of the Orchard Centre walking street and just over from Cineworld is Boswell's Cafe. It's well placed to catch passing trade.The food is wholesome and basic, no balsamic dressing here. You order at the counter.What always strikes me about Boswells Cafe is the charm and friendliness of every staff member. They are universally cheery and eager to please. This is consistent in even the busiest periods. It's the main reason we keep coming back. Excellent for a full-English breakfast or coffee and a pastry. There's plenty of seating.Lovely girls who are well trained in customer service take your order and bring it to the table.

I enjoy going to this coffee shop/restaurant as it is easy going and friendly with simple food and great coffee. It is a nice place to get a coffee and a snack and read a book in comfortable easy chairs.

Easy going friendly cafe/restaurant with simple food and great coffee. Pop there for lunch if I am working from home and it easy to waste time reading the paper in comfortable easy chairs.

This place can get very busy as it is pretty large and to be honest, not a great choice of places to grab a coffee or lunch in Didcot town centre. However, whatever we've had has always been reasonable for the price paid (sausage sandwiches in particular very good at breakfast!) and you can't ask much more than that.
