Bruin Cafe in South Oxfordshire

We were looking for somewhere for a quick coffee before arriving at the nearby Le Manoir. What a perfect little find in a quintessential English village, and most definitely unexpected. All looks fairly new. It’s a modern design with a modern take on their food. Staff all exceptional as was coffee. We had a couple of small snacks, which were both delightful (particularly the scotch egg).

Bagels are exceptional! We have been addicted to salt beef bagel it is to die for!!! Also really tasty cakes, cinammon swirls are very moist and moorish as well as chocolate cakes and pastries. This place is an absolute delight! So glad that now there is evening food on fridays!

I popped into Bruin's while I waited for my tires to be fixed, and I'm really glad I did. The team was super-friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. I had a latte and a pastry, both were excellent. The highlight was a fresh scotch egg, which was the nicest scotch egg I've ever had. I thoroughly recommend Bruin's to anyone, it's just a shame this isn't my local cafe.

Amazing food, great atmosphere and lovely staff. Couldn’t ask for better. So good … even the kids were impressed! We can’t wait to come back!😍

Had their Friday night Mexican takeout. Now I can’t move. Totally awesome, it tasted really good, will defo come again.

Stopped here as was passing through Wheatley. Ordered a ham and cheese toastie. A showstopper. Literally amazing. Will be back!

Excellent macchiato. Delicious cakes and friendly service. Coming back another time for the scotch eggs I've heard about.

A quick snack stop for work and me and my colleagues were absolutely blown away by the service and quality of food at Bruin café. It seemed to be a one-man show and service was still speedy and so polite. I ordered the new York deli sandwich and it was incredible. The bread was really high quality and it was nice and toasty. If I'm working in the area again, I will definitely stop by again.

Oooo, this little cafe is so good. We found them on TripAdvisor and they didn't disappoint. The Scotch eggs are absolutely the best we've ever eaten, lovely crunchy outer and runny yolk, delicious! Fab coffee and lovely cakes. Fortunately the weather was good, and we were able to eat outside as there isn't any inside seating, but that is the only downside. Quite honestly we would have eaten their delicious offerings in the car if we'd had to :-) The guys who run it are lovely too, relaxed and friendly. Perfect

Excellent tasty sandwiches, coffee and cakes all made fresh. Large portion sizes, a sandwich usually gives me two lunches! A Bruins sandwich is now my regular Friday treat. We also had their takeaway Mexican platters last Friday night which were also excellent. Staff are lovely and obviously enjoy what they do.

Great coffee, amazing brownies (the biscoff is incredible) and really friendly service. A must visit

I keep meaning to write a review for this lovely place because every time I visit I want to go straight back and try the things I didn’t get to choose to eat but I’d need a bigger stomach! Scotch eggs to die for, coffee never disappoints and I want all the cake recipes. Thank you Bruins for brightening my day.

Really wonderful place, the coffee is absolutely next level. Made with real care for the process. I had a New York Deli toasted sandwich on sough dough and it was really good. Great ingredients and served with a smile by a friendly face. Would highly recommend and will be back very soon.

One of the best things about moving to Wheatley has been Bruin! It's a fantastic little café with really friendly staff, flavoursome coffee, fantastic savoury food, and enticing sweet treats! Especially for those with a sweet tooth, the homemade cinnamon buns are a must: just make sure you get there before they go! And, if this special is available, their Pecan Mess is beyond words!

Out on the bike we needed a coffee and stumbled on Bruins when our usual cafe was closed. A lucky find and one we will be revisiting. Really good coffee, so good we had another, and a cake.

Small, friendly and welcoming cafe with amazing food! It’s clear that the owner cares deeply about the quality of the food and drinks he serves and the cafe has a lovely warm and welcoming atmosphere. The coffee is a must buy! It’s so good! The food was delicious and with two young kids in tow the pulled pork bagel, the triple cheese bagel and sausage rolls was devoured in silence (Always a good sign) and given the thumbs up by two of the world’s harshest food critics! We also had cakes: - and were glad we did! The hot cinnamon rolls with topping and chocolate brownies were out of this world! We will be back!!

Took my Nan into the village for a coffee this morning. Lovely coffee and delicious brownie and the man working in there was lovely. Very friendly.

Local village cafe on the high street. Very friendly barista who was lovely to talk to and made a fantastic cappucino, (Oat Milk available!) A great selection of homemade pastries and cakes. I'll definitely be going back, and would reccomend this cafe to anyone.

Perfect coffee, scrumptious pastries, lovely home-made soup and tasty pies, can't wait for your return!

If you enjoy good coffee, this is. A place to visit. Delicious sweet and savoury baked goods. Selection from Gatinau Oxford, Barefoot Oxford and in-house homemade and homemade soup. My favourite is oat milk latte plus roobios tea sometimes. Not to mention how friendly the...

Great coffee at a sensible price, a friendly relaxed atmosphere and all very welcoming. This looks like it is now in the hands of some enterprising fellows and I will definitely re-visit on a regular basis. I didn't look at the menu but everything on...

Since this cafe changed hands it has really become my favourite place for a very good coffee or marvellous lunch. A different soup every day, and a very good range of savouries, cakes and biscuits. Nothing is too much trouble for these very helpful young...
