“Price is what you pay, value is what you get” Lasagne with a price point looked attractive but the end product was very disappointing - lacked substance, too much liquid and if I’d been asked to identify it as lasagne I would have failed. Also the waiter kept hovering around us waiting to clear dishes and indeed asked my companion whether he had finished when clearly he hadn’t. Coffee cups were not allowed to linger - my cappuccino should have been piping hot - it wasn’t. I come to this restaurant 4x pa, will now to look elsewhere within Woodstock. A shame

The service and food were spot-on. We ordered from the daily specials and we were not disappointed. The tiramisu for dessert was light and flavorful and quite possibly the best I've ever tasted.

We didn't book ahead but were still warmly welcomed and shown to the last remaining table, a window table for four. The food recommendations were spot on and our request for a slight modification for one dish was happily accommodated. I ordered the Pan-fried Sea Bass which was tender and full of flavour. The Penne Arrabiata had just the right level of heat, the Veal Saltimboca was cooked to perfection, and the Canneloni was piping hot and meaty. The desserts we chose were beautifully presented and a delicious finale to our meal; a light Tiramisu, a slice of Limoncello Cheesecake and an Amaretto Gato, each just indulgent enough but not overwhelmingly rich. Every member of staff was very friendly and attentive and we had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Booking recommended, even on a Monday!

I stumbled upon Brothertons after a tour of Blenheim Palace on my way back to a friends house. Choosing to sit outside in the courtyard area, the service was great from the two young staff. The food was very fresh and enjoyable and the wine fresh and crisp also. A great choice in Woodstock if you’re looking for something other than English pub fare.

We arrived after making a reservation and we were asked to wait. The table they sat us at was dirty so not a great start. This restaurant was not as good as we expected. We ordered calamari to share and a couple of pizzas. I would say these were just average and nothing special. The cheesecake also was more like cream and overly sweet. Also if you do go here avoid the toilets they were absolutely awful and need a damm good clean.

We were a table of 8. After an hour our starters came, they were fine. We waited ages for drinks and when the mains finally arrived they were overwhelmingly disappointing. The steaks were like leather and one was returned as a regurgitated mess of gristle. (I explained I wouldn’t be paying for it and it was removed from the bill) The lasagne was dry with barely any filling. One guest commented to the table ‘I’d be ashamed to serve a spaghetti bolognaise this bad at home’ Veg was a mush of water. The parma ham on the pizza was so thick it was like chewing on dried jerky chunks, he was having to take it off and cut it up with a knife and fork before reassembling the pizza. Pasta appeared to be the cheapest value range with very amateur sauces. Staff were young and cocky, they had no idea which steak was which, although it made no difference because the were equally terrible and overcooked. Cutlery for 8 was literally thrown in one large bundle on the table with a loud crash by the young man. The young lady gave me the same attitude my teenagers have given me at home, I gave her the same one I give at home too! We decided not to gamble deserts and instead went to Co-op to buy tiramisu and profiteroles which we took home and had with a cup of tea. We paid the nearly £400 bill at which point a young lady mentioned to my daughter that she thought we all intended to leave a tip! She replied with ‘I'm afraid noone was happy enough with their meals to do that’ We are usually very good tippers. During the meal I used the lavatory to find a previous occupant had clearly been unwell. I decided it was a really unpleasant site for other guests and so as discreetly as possible I approached a lady behind the bar, she scowled at me and dismissed me with a hand-wave and told me to go and tell my waiter. I didn’t do this as I didn’t like to think of my waiter scrubbing the toilet during service. However much to our dismay, as we were chewing on our terrible food two members of staff individually approached our table announcing loud and proud that they had cleaned the toilet and gave their apologies for the mess. The whole experience has left us confident in knowledge that we will not return.

Wife wife and I spent the last weekend in Woodstock. Of three restaurants we tried out BB's was bar far the best in terms of choice and quality of food, service and value for money. We both had specials for our mains, pork medallions for my wife and sea bass for myself, both were cooked just right. Good choice of Italian wines. All in all a very enjoyable dining experience. Will definitely return when we next visit Woodstock

Staying locally for a few nights, we were looking for something a little special and we came across Brothertons Brasserie. We hadn’t booked but it was early and our table for two was easily accommodated by the very friendly and helpful waitress. Our table was upstairs and we were immediately brought the menus. The hardest part was deciding what to have, but we decided on the Veal Milanese with spaghetti and the Veal Saltimbocca. Both were absolutely sublime, could not fault them, so tasty and perfectly cooked. Dessert was equally as delicious, we had tiramisu and Amaretto cake😋 amazing! The staff were all friendly and helpful. I just wish we lived nearer so we could return! Highly recommended!!

Deeply disappointing. Had lunch there in the summer and were delighted so booked for dinner. Slow. Maybe best to stick to pizza and pasta. Saltimbocca floating in the juice of a ratatouille isn’t a good look. Calamari Fritti accompanied by a dressed salad, pub style, with red onions similarly. Their plates are too small so everything looked just piled on. 0 out of 10 for presentation. Better consideration should be given to what goes with what and veg not of the diners’ choice should be served on a separate dish. Both of us have lived in Italy and have learnt to have minimal expectations of provincial Italian restaurants. Sadly, not even these we’re met. Lots of people appear to like the restaurant. Unfortunately we are not amongst them. Another one not to be tried again.

Really disappointing meal for my mums 70th birthday. Some members of the family had travelled an hour to get to the venue to help celebrate and the whole experience felt rushed with one main member of the team, an Italian man, rolling his eyes and getting short with us when we hadn't decided on whether we wanted deserts or not. We ordered mains as soon as arrived as no time to look at menu before 3 times the man had come and asked what we wanted, the mains turned up within 5 mins and th fish linguine was cold and my husbands spaghetti was soft, both meals looked and tasted microwaved. We had no time to enjoy relaxing after the mains were whisked away as soon as the cutlery hit the plate and then the water requested desserts straight after. We were in and out in less than an hour. As soon as desserts came , the bill was presented without us asking. All in all, awful microwaved, rushed food that was expensive for what it was and impatient service.

After reading the many positive reviews we decided to eat here whilst staying in Woodstock during our 25th wedding anniversary weekend and we were genuinely looking forward to sampling some authentic Italian cuisine,however the reality was hugely disappointing and on this occasion reading the negative reviews would of given a true reflection of our experience we were about to have. It’s fair to say that the evening started really well , we were greeted with a very warm welcome and seated at a lovely table for two in the corner all very romantic, trouble is that is were the positives end. The starters arrived and were average at best with my prawns having lumps of uncooked/raw garlic in the sauce and my wife’s sardines completely under seasoned and lacking any taste. Despite this as we were both quite hungry so finished our starters hoping it was just a glitch and the mains would make amends. How wrong were we!!!! Both the swordfish my wife ordered along with the specialty chicken in white wine and sage sauce I had were appallingly cooked with no care given to how both plates of food looked or tasted. My wife’s mains had In excess of fifteen olives thrown on top of the fish along with a tinned tomato ratatouille tepid roast potatoes that had been re-warmed and probably cooked the day before and crunchy stemmed broccoli. My chicken breast looked and tasted like it had been boiled as opposed to seared in a hot pan and was covered in a gluppy sauce that resembled wall paper paste it was obvious these relatively basic dishes were beyond the chefs capabilities. At this point we just wanted to get the bill and leave the restaurant realising we had made a huge mistake and in hindsight should have booked a table at the pub around the corner serving small plate tapas. After telling the waiter/manager how disappointed we were in the food we made a quick getaway (it’s also worth noting our bill was reduced to reflect this,so they did at least have enough good grace to acknowledge this). To sum up if you are looking to eat an authentic Italian meal I would avoid this place like the plague.

Overall the restaurant looked lovely and had a great vibe. I booked on line and popped my head in on the day to check my reservation was there. I was very surprised at the reception I got not what I would expect no smile or welcome. I put this to one side and looked forward to our evening. We were greeted warmly and showed to our table. Our server was a senior man and it felt as we did not order a starter we were treated poorly the wine was just dumped on table! Not opened or even confirmed what we’d ordered. There was no upsetting of olives or bread or anything to make us feel welcome. It seemed to be an effort to serve us tbh. The food was plentiful and served very quickly. 5 of 6 dishes were good but seafood pasta poor, no sauce really. We didn’t say anything as by then we felt prickly and just wanted to enjoy the evening. We weren’t offered coffee or anything after almost like they wanted our table. Overall good value tasty food, nice ambiance spoilt by service. Shame

Repeat visit & nothing like last time. We sat outside & the setting was lovely on a warm summer evening. That's the positive. We had booked for 7.30 but didn't get any attention for over 20 minutes. The waitress took our order for wine but said someone else would take the food order. Again, a long wait for the wine,at least 25 minutes, which was very warm when it finally arrived. We were left to open it ourselves & the waitress left to get us some ice & Iced water. Never did get water delivered & I had to fetch ice myself from the bar! A while later, the same waitress came back & took our food order even though she had said before that she couldn't, and of course, it took ages for starters to arrive. The Bruschetta were not bruschetta. We were served slightly toasted cheap sliced white bread with chopped tomatoes & olives with an overpowering amount of dried oregano. They should be ashamed to call it Italian food We ate some as we were very hungry by this point but left half. The waitress didn't look surprised! Oh well ,we thought, at least we have the pizza to look forward to..... it arrived quite quickly & looked good. However, after a couple of slices, we had to give in. We both left over half. So much salt - just awful. No comment again from the waitress as she took away the full plates. We asked for the bill immediately. 3 hrs of my life & over £80 I won't get back. We had booked in advance for another night but quickly cancelled. The waitress was very nice & doing her best but clearly a lot of training needed here. If you want to see well trained staff with good pub food- go to the Punchbowl.

Arrived for a 7.30pm booking, for which the staff seemed unaware. Waited half hour before we were offered a drink on a very hot evening, even a glass of water would have been appreciated! No apology for the long delay in service. The jug of water was brought with no glasses which we had to ask for 3 times. Food was of a reasonable standard and came in an acceptable time frame. No salt and pepper on the table, which wouldn't have been a problem if the vegetables had been seasoned. So we took the salt from an empty table, only to have it taken to give to another table. Every table should have appropriate condiments before service starts, any good chef should accept that not everyone likes their potatoes and broccoli unsalted and therefore tasteless. No option to add a tip to the bill on the card machine, and this day and age most people do not carry cash so unfortunately the staff lose out. All in all, a poorly run restaurant with no visible management, especially as there was sufficient staff to cope with a full restaurant, however the staff need adequate training and good leadership.

Good choice of food.We shared a fish platter which was very nice but was more like a seafood platter.Two of us had pizzas which were tasty but the base was difficult to cut with our knives....normally you are offered a stake knife A good meal

Called in by chance and looking at the menu and specials we were looking forward to a lovely meal. We had the shared seafood starter. The presentation was dreadful, soggy lettuce and lots of oil. Some of the mussels tasted off and we didn't finish...

Great atmosphere, attentive and polite staff but the food was very disappointing. Starter was leek and potato soup. Consistency was like water and not a lot of taste ( apart from pepper!!). Had a chicken dish for main course. The brandy cream sauce was tasteless!!...

I despair. I thought restaurants in the UK have moved on but patently not in many cases. The food we had was very bland. I would call it Brititalia ie the sort of thing served up 30 years ago. I had the veal cooked in...

Booked a table for my mother in law for her 60th Birthday. My husband contacted the restaurant to arrange to pay for their meal. The person he spoke to was so rude and abrupt we cancelled the booking and booked elsewhere.

Fabulous food and friendly service. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were made to feel like valued customers. There is a great range of food on the menu, all at reasonable prices, cooked to order and truly delicious. Thank you.

This little restaurant is throughly charming and always has a great atmosphere. Staff are welcoming and fun (likely to sing to you or give you a cuddle). Food is Italian fare and is reasonably priced. Recommend - the pizzas or a Carbonara.

Enjoyed a pleasant evening here. Good honest Italian cooking, very flavourful. The sardines were excellent. House wine OK at £20 but others were overpriced I thought at pushing £40. Not sure why the wide disparity. Also they have only two sittings at 6 and 8...

We visited for Sunday lunch mid August. Restaurant wasn’t by any means quiet but didn’t seem overly busy. From start to finish we received excellent service. Nothing was too much trouble. All questions were answered. Food was delicious really enjoyed every bit, others had puddings which were good too. Al members of staff were excellent and clearly enjoying their work. Beth was the one who served us mostly. She was attentive, kind and extremely helpful. All in all a great visit. Pricing is reasonable, portion sizes are good. Thank you we hope to visit again soon.

Never again! Our starters were average, the ‘butterfly prawn’ was mostly bread crumb and very little prawn and extremely dry. The chicken Shashlick was cooked to almost sawdust, dry and tough and inedible. Why do you get a punnet of salad? It is neither in keeping or in this case edible.

Nice little pub, choice of 8 on draught. Came in just after 9 and the barman said they are closing soon. Nice log fire is always a win.

When a business contact of mine from London told me he would be visiting Witney, of course I wanted to meet up with him. But also I wanted to impress him and show him the best that Witney ha to offer. When I booked dinner at The Three Horseshoes I was confident that my contact would have a great evening, and it was absolutely the right choice. As soon as he arrived he commented on how amazing the pub was, and how he loved the atmosphere and the log burner too. Our dinner was fantastic and even though the place was busy, the speed or service and the attentiveness of the team was brilliant. They were there when we needed them, and left us to get on with our business conversation the rest of the time. For impressing a really important contact from London - The Three Horseshoes was exactly the right choice and what is SO brilliant is that it is also the perfect choice for a quiet pint or to meet up with friends too.
