Cafe at the Old Flight House in Cherwell - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Sorry, how much? A BLT, a piece of cake and a can of drink for £17.50 and that’s with a 10% discount for takeaway. Can’t say I was surprised when the staff were saying it’s not very busy. I guess I should have looked at the menu before I ordered so only myself to blame.

A surprisingly excellent cafe ! We enjoyed the best bowl of soup with warm French stick. Thai carrot soup, creamy and imaginative with a hint of chilli. Beautifully presented , generous portion and very delicious and warming. Menu is all very tempting, large jacket potatoes with unusual fillings, Mediterranean vegetable tart and salad and delicious looking toasted sandwiches wraps. Steak sandwich looked excellent too. Don’t mention the cakes ! Didn’t try but they looked delish. Worth going to this enjoyable antiques centre just for the food. Staff really friendly and helpful, lovely service, nice cutlery and surroundings. Can’t wait to go again.

A great place to visit with good food, coffee and cake. Friendly, staff, and service. A great place to visit with good food, coffee and cake. A walk around the antique shop is a bonus.

My first experience of The Old Flight House was in February this year…wow!! then last week at the beginning of March….it is impossible to explain just how beautiful the building is…with an air of bygone days…spacious with a real mix of stunning furniture, vintage, and cabinets full of delicious silver and jewellery…the antiques on display in room sets, were a joy…it’s l lovely to see old buildings preserved and reused.the cafe first rate…lovely food, sumptuous cakes and brilliant service…I shall certainly return for a third time very soon,,…..

Always nice fresh and tasty food from gorgeous salads to toasties and burgers with friendly service. Great place to visit to browse antiques then a bit of lunch.

Popped in to visit yesterday with my little boy and my brothers - what a delight! Friendly staff that made us feel welcome and really delicious food. Looking forward to a return visit; thank you!

A lovely venue nestled inside an antique shop. Friendly staff and excellent food combine to make for a brilliant experience, we go back time and time again and it never disappoints. Well worth a visit.

what can I say me and my partner came to browse the center which we did buy many items and decided to stay for lunch and do more browsing after. Must say the food is absolutely delicious and a great selection as well as a special board.it caters for all.

Been here many times, and as always today's visit did not disappoint. Excellent, hot coffee and delicious,fresh cake. Friendly service too. Thank you.

Firstly, I'd say the food was comensurate, with the prices, ie high prices with good quality food. The salad was a bit over-oiled ! CUSTOMER SERVICE Waitress (clerk 01) - "that's £17.....cash or card?" Customer - "please?" Waitress - "yea !" Customer - "you mean £17 please?" Waitress - "yea" Customer - "Are you going to say £17 please?" Waitress - "yea - cash or card?" Gave £20 note....... Waitress - "£3 change" Customer - "Thankyou ?" Waitress - "Yea" Customer - "You didn't say 'please' or 'thankyou' during the entire transaction ? Waitress - "oh" Waitress - "have a nice day SIR" Customer - "no need to be facitious, I only asked why you never say 'please' or 'thankyou' " Waitress - rolled eyes & carried on polishing spoons. The problem is, that no matter haw good the food is; if the customer experience is disrespectful, then they'll never reach the next level. They tend to forget, that the customer is number 1 !! No customers = no business / no job / no wages Customer service needs improvement, as an absolute MINIMUM, a 'plesse' & 'thank you' would go a long way.

It is just such an interesting outing and we had very good and reasonable snack type but great tasting food and wine in a Quirky atmosphere. Having been to the Oxford arms in Kirtlington two days before where it was £13.50 for a 125ml glass of Sauvignon, and £120 plus for two lunches, this place is a bargain.

I took my friend here for lunch. Nice walk round and lovely setting. Sandwiches were goods and chips amazing! Service excellent

Called in on our way from Poole to Leeds. Do this instead of the lousy motorway services. Stopped here many times before and superb as usual.

Have visited now on numerous occasions over the last few weeks with different friends. Lovely light menu, reasonably priced and such friendly staff. Will be back again with more friends!

popped in for a quick breakfast before looking around the antiques shop. had lovely crispy bacon sandwich, nice teacakes.

Interesting and lovely selection of treasures beautifully displayed . Delightful experience browsing in an imaginative setting to hunt for unique and special antiques. Something to delight the eye at every turn . The café is well worth a visit tempting selection of cakes . We opted for the cream tea which was delicious . Tasty warm home bake scones with lashings of cream and jam . Very enjoyable experience

Been here lots of times for coffee and cake and lunch. Food good. Sadly coffee and tea from a machine not proper coffee and water not hot enough to make a decent pot of tea

Lovely decor and atmosphere but food extremely over priced, never got my drink, no hesiatiation in refunding but won't be back.

Arrived with a group of 10 friends on a bike wanting to stop for a coffee to be greeted at in the Car Park by a lady who said that we could not park our bikes up against her wall as it is blocking the car park. She then intimated that as we would not be buying any antiques we were not welcome in the Cafe and she suggested that we went to the Milk Shed down the road. Guess what, we took her advice and went to the Milk Shed. You know what they say about 1st impressions I would not go back here for a coffee nor would I consider going back to buy any Antiques. Out of the group of 11 what is to say that if we enjoyed the coffee we might have a walk around and come back later with the car ... How very short sighted.

Friends invited us to join them to 'check out' this stylish venue.We were dropped off at the main door and, though we saw a sign for a car park at the rear, the driver discovered that, like the front one, the rear car park waa full. A spot was found on a nearby roadside.Meanwhile, inside, the three passengers' table search was a little challenging too. The venue is clearly very popular so, if time is of the essence, avoid visiting during peak times!Café staff were accommodating and courteous. The lunch wraps and salad were tasty and there were plenty of lovely items on the walls of the café for those eager to start the browsing/shopping part of the outing.After lunch, we enjoyed a leisurely look/walk around the antique, vintage, and interiors items attractively displayed around. The nonagenarian in our group managed the walk around the slightly uneven flooring. The washroom facilities (toilets/WC) were easily accessible and in good order with a delightfully zesty liquid soap!We spent about 2-3 hours there. It is conveniently located 5 minutes or so from junctions 9 and 10 of the M40.I recommend you visit The Old Flight House with enough time to park, lunch, browse and buy!

Lovely setting , good service . Ordered a ploughmans but got a sourdoughi roll with grated cheese and pickle . and a little bit of lettuce with too much vinaigrette dressing on Not what I expected . No choice of breads other than sourdough. Found it a bit heavy .

Visited here after reading reviews and was not disappointed a fabulous place to meet for lunch or coffee and cake. Lovely food and seating area surrounded by a lovely environment to browse and buy if something catches your fancy. Whilst it was busy we were still able to park in the rear car park

The cafe is a nice addition to the Bicester area, and is a little quieter than other nearby cafes. A good place for coffee and cake - cakes are a little average, but are fresh and have plenty of gluten-free options. The service can be very slow depending on the staff. It is frustrating that, despite being a small cafe, the staff put 'reserved' signs on the tables furthest from the counter after lunch to stop people sitting there. While we were in the cafe some new customers asked what time they were reserved for, and were actually turned away because the staff would not open those tables (rest of the cafe was full).

Came here as a recommendation from a friend. We found the car park easily (one behind and one in front) using the postcode from the website. The place is clean, much bigger than expected and full of antiques! Loads to look at, like walking through a museum. We didn’t purchase anything but saw a great range from clothes, lamps, old suitcases, sport memorabilia and jewellery. The cafe itself was large and was no problem finding a table. Tea, latte and 2 slices of cake was £11.50. A little over priced but cake was yummy. Free WiFi in the cafe. Loads of food on menu with gluten free options too. Vegetarians would be fine to eat here too. Overall a nice place to go out for the morning.

Super food and staff. Above all, the large room with plenty of table space and nice décor, the chance to browse the antiques for sale as you wait for your order, makes this a very pleasant experience. A terrific place to visit and one which I will be repeating.

What a find! What a revelation!The owners, Sally and her husband, have created THE most exceptional restaurant / interior design / antiques oasis!The exquisite decor both elegant and shabby chic, the food nothing less than 5* dining and the ambience simply sublime.The staff are warm, welcoming and extremely helpful.This is an absolute must if you are looking for something extraordinarily unique.We will be coming back and most definitely spreading the word.

Stopped at The Flight House at the end of a long drive home looking for lunch at 2.00pm on a Sunday. The cafe isn’t set up to do a Sunday roast but we both chose burgers, I went for the chilli burger option. We did have to wait a little but there is a whole antiques centre to browse while waiting so that’s not really a problem. The food was very nicely cooked, well presented and plentiful. The chilli burger was at the spicy end of my pallete but better that than being bland. The chips were perfect and my salad was dressed with a tasty vinaigrette. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit.

I tend to come here with my mum. We lime to spend some time looking around the antiques and collectables and then have a spot of lunch at the cafe. This time I had the sweet potato soup and mum had a toasted sandwich. We were very happy and will be visiting again.

A favourite haunt of mine as the staff are lovely and the food is great. A lot of choice and always of a high standard. Can get busy no matter what day so go with this in mind. Always antiques to look at if you have to wait. Very limited car parking. Good for disabled as you can get in and out without any issues at the front of the building and also all the way round the antiques which are always fun to nosey round. Great place if the weather is abit dull and wet. Not really ideal for young children but they are welcome

I was lucky enough to be taken to The Old Flight House recently for Afternoon Tea by a friend. It is such a lovely place, a real Aladdin's cave of antiques or every nature and to top that, a wonderful café. I have since taken family members a number of times for lunch as could not wait to show them. It is now a firm favourite place. Highly recommended.

We went in for a warm drink after a local walk. The staff were friendly; service was swift. The display of items on sale gives a buzz and a sense of style. Strongly recommend a visit to see whether it’s style appeals to you.

The old flight house is an eclectic mix of antique shop and cafe/restaurant. It calls itself a cafe but the food served I think makes it restaurant level, and oh the food is lovely. I opted for a Korean Kimchi burger ( yes you don't see that every day) and as a lover of Kimchi was not at all disappointed with my choice. My wife also had the same but her accompaniment was skinny sweet potato chips as opposed to my chunky chips. the food could not be faulted it was fresh and delicious.

Nice antiques centre with numerous display sections and a good café. Problem with parking, spent good 20 minutes trying to find a space.

Lovely little place. Great food but very busy, at times you may have to wait for a table but it'll be worth it.

We had a delicious lunch at this cafe, which we did not expect. I love the way it is set in amongst the Antiques. Lovely food and very pleasant, friendly staff.

Este es un bonito, elegante, bien organizado centro de antiguos con un café ligero y bien ventilado. He tenido unas cuantas sesiones de café y tarta con las chicas y todos muy contentos. Yo diría que es más ese tipo de café de uno de los niños. El centro antiguo tiene algunas unidades agradable con algunos artículos interesantes, algunas de alta calidad y cara y otros más en la línea de lo que está disponible en la mayoría de los centros de antigüedades. Un poco de joyería para la venta y un montón de muebles pintados a tiza, etc. shabby chic pero bien. Es bastante grande, así que hay mucho para recorrer. No obstante, a veces el personal puede ser un poco de calidez y un poco 'grand' con los clientes. Los propietarios deberían abordar este ya que pueden hacer a pie (me iba a parar para el almuerzo, pero decidimos no hacerlo después de algunos servicio regular en el centro). Me compre un estar y realmente aprecio un buen servicio, ya que pueden hacer o quebrar mi día de trabajo. Así que, en general, recomiendo una visita, algunas cosas interesantes para la venta aquí, el café parece mayormente ocupados así que supongo que la comida es buena, pero no esperes demasiado de una bienvenida.

Si estás visitando la antigua/centro de clásicos es incorporado dentro y es muy agradable.

The atmosphere is always lovely, food is good especially the salads, quick service and friendly! Always busy, and theres a reason for it!

Visitamos el café al comienzo de nuestra tarde de curiosear por tesoros en el centro de antigüedades. Qué delicia! El menú estándar pensada para todo tipo de gustos y presupuestos y la pecials' en la junta eran una delicia. Había mucha variedad para Verduras con ofertas imaginativas que comenzó el deliciosos simplemente elegir qué. No tome mucho tiempo para la comida para llegar y no nos decepcionó. Las porciones eran generosas y la comida estaba maravillosamente preparada y presentada. La comida estaba caliente, aunque el pipping de la temperatura un poco baja para nosotros, recuerda llevar una chaqueta o un sweater en los días fríos.

Buena comida en oferta. Rápido para servir y una gran relación calidad-precio. Malo es que estaba muy ocupado el día que fuimos y que no habían regresado a ajustando así todavía bastante pocas cosas y bandejas de todo el lugar. Aparte de eso. Recomiendo

Encanta comer aquí. . . Cambiar con frecuencia y ofertas siempre hay algunas interesantes opciones para vegetarianos

Called here with family for a light bite and having a food intolerance I usually find very little to eat, but this café provided a delicious lunch - one and a half rounds of gluten free bread filled with bacon, brie and cranberry with chunky chips which were really tasty. A cheese scone and an apple cake eaten by my companions were equally delicious. There were lots of interesting specials on the board which I might be tempted to try on a return visit. However - the tea consisted of a large wide topped bowl cup with a tea bag in the hot water - not what I was expecting, with a little dish on which to deposit the used tea bag. I would have preferred a pot and a proper tea cup not a cappuccino coffee cup as the tea quickly went cold.

I don't know but there is nothing to complain! Normally people are nice to you if you're nice to them... But anyway our first experience was amazing and we felt welcome. Great value food was really yummy. We eat burger... delicious! Nice staff helpful and friendly. Of course this is not Michelin Star Restaurant but this doesn't matter...So don't be afraid of anything... nice Ambiente and good food!Enjoy!

Such a shame.We came for an Afternoon Tea, the menu does state 'Afternoon Tea' but when trying to order one we discovered they don't actually do it - only cream tea and individual items. The kind waitress said she'd see if there was anything they could put together for us, as she emerged from the kitchen (with the answer being 'No, Sorry.') Kitchen staff loudly declared 'We're not the Grand Cafe!!' It was evidently aimed at us. We were in shock, the waitress was mortified and apologised profusely, returning to the kitchen to let him know we'd heard him. Considering the menu boasts of an 'Afternoon Tea' section I don't think it's a ridiculous request to inquire if they actually do one. His rudeness was totally uncalled for.Following that my food was forgotten - I had to chase it up after my friends had finished, the staff couldn't recall what I'd ordered. Then a rather burnt toastie was finally brought to me. Very true it's 'Not the Grand Cafe' as he couldn't even make a toastie without burning it. Very disappointing as it's a beautiful venue, was just such a poor experience here.

We had a late lunch in the Cafe at The Old Flight House today and what a Super meal it was. We both had meals chosen from the Specials Board, they were special! The Figs wrapped in Palma Ham with Cheese, just superb, plus skinny fries. We are regular eater in the Cafe and it never disappoints. Great food, good value and friendly staff.

We had a delicious lunch - the spinach/ mozzarella balls and the fig/ Parma ham specials. We often stop here for lunch and have never had a disappointing meal. Plenty of inspiration and temptation in the gift shops surrounding the cafe! Allow a good 2 hours to look around.

Service was good and friendly. Nice atmosphere. Comfortable. Food good but tuna fish dry and over cooked. Salad good.

Excellent cafe within an antiques warehouse. Really nice freshly made to order sandwiches, baguettes, toasties, light lunches and cake. Good selection of hot and cold drinks. Has indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be a bit limited at times.

I have driven past this place many a time and decided to pop in at the weekend with my wife for a browse around the shop and lunch. The café is light and airy and has a very pleasant atmosphere, with quiet areas or tables closer to the antiques and bargain hunters.The burger I had was very tasty, better than many I've had in gastro pubs, not fussy, just very flavoursome and executed well. My wife was breastfeeding during our visit and we were made to feel very welcome, the staff making sure she had water to remain hydrated when feeding, a nice thought!

Good choice of food and beverages. Friendly staff and good food. Service is normally quick although it can be very busy. You may have a problem finding a free table at peak times but you can pass the time looking around all the antiques and collectables. A very interesting place to visit.

I absolutely love the Old Flight House, if you love shabby chic, rustic and antique pieces then this is the place for you. They also have jewellery and some vintage clothing.The cafe is really nice and has a lovely outside seating area. The selection of food and cakes is excellent for a battery recharge before continuing with your shopping.

Tucked into the back of a vintage/antique emporium The Cafe at The Old Flight House provides a delicious menu for lunch which can be eaten at tables inside or in the courtyard. Service was quick and friendly and we went back several times!

We visited here for a light lunch which we had to order ourselves at the cash desk. The customer service of the gentleman who seems to be in charge here is somewhat questionable. During our recent visit, the food arrived quickly and was fresh and tasty providing good value for money. BUT the general hygiene of the surroundings within the cafe is worrying and certainly doesn't appear to match the five star hygiene rating being displayed on the notice board. The floors are dirty and look like they haven't been washed in a long time and the tables have failed to be regularly cleared and wiped. I can't help but think the owner who regularly peruse the flight centre observing the calibre of customers ought to give the cafe a much needed deep clean!

We were staying at the nearby Bignell Park Hotel in Bicester and after reading good reviews thought we would visit for lunch. We had read there was an antique goods business inside but were amazed at the size of the place which was full of the most interesting antique, vintage and modern items displayed fantastically by the dealers. We made a couple of purchases before heading for lunch. The cafe is beautifully presented and the food is amazing and great value for money. Great range of dishes as well as beautiful cakes and scones. A great find and we will definitely be back soon.

We were recommended this place and it is well worth a visit for not only do they serve delicious light lunches, but also cakes and scones. There is also the opportunity to explore the Aladdin 's cave of antiques and collectables, well set out and keenly priced. The downside for me was that when we ordered a pot of tea for two, the tea arrived in two cups filled with hot water and a teabag of good quality. However, it would have been so much better if the teabag had been in a small teapot particularly as £1.75 seemed a bit over the top for a cup of tea. Perhaps I am being a little picky, but it did spoil the experience for me. My husband raved about the warm scones with clotted cream

The cafe in this place is lovely and the cake is to die for. So, surrounded by all the nick knacks you could ever throw a stick at and arranged in themed areas from dealers. We've been a couple of times and enjoyed the experience, but always come away with collectables we didn't know we needed and in some instances didn't even know existed.We'll be back!

I've waited 20 hours to leave this review so that it was considered and not just an over-reaction. Yesterday (16.6.16) I took my partner and daughter for lunch at the Cafe at the Old Flight House, on the menu was an Haloumi Salad with PINE NUTS, my daughter has a sever allergy to peanuts but can eat other nuts safely, including pine nuts so that was ordered.When the salad was presented it was covered in nuts - but DEFINITELY not Pine Nuts..when the waiter returned with our other dishes we questioned him as to whether these were pine nuts (being fairly sure they weren't) but were told "Yes, they are pine nuts", I asked him to be 100% certain and he said he'd ask the 'chef' - sure enough he came back and said "No they were substituted - would you like another one"This could have been a VERY serious issue if none of us had been paying attention and would have resulted in possible hospitalization, luckily it didn't.Other than an apology from the waiter, who then really added insult to injury by saying, and I quote "Of course we can't guarantee that our dishes don't contain nuts" although there was NOTHING to state that clearly my reply was to suggest, quite firmly that the menue Specials Board should NOT have shown pine nuts in the first place and that it should be immediately removed.I was extremely disappointed that not a single senior member of staff came to see us (and I know for a fact that at least one of the owners of the Old Flight House was there because I saw them) to apologize.This is a SERIOUS failing and I would urge anyone visiting this cafe to do so with extreme caution. Because of this incident and that fact that other than a waiter, who had clearly been dispatched to try and appease me, made an apology we will NOT be returning here again - and I am local so may well have done. The management need to get a grip on this.

Three of us visited The Old Flight House at Weston On The Green and had a Super lunch. A Massive, home cooked Lasagne, a Chicken Burger and a Caesar Salad. All lovely, well cooked and tasty. Excellent staff and service. We will be back!

Wanting a short trip out and fed up with yet another visit to a garden centres, a friend suggested a place she had recently visited, "a lovely antique place with a cafe". I'm not a huge fan of antiques, but thought it worth a try..On arrival my first impression was that I would be hard pushed to spend 30 minutes there. 4 hours later............. I spent some time browsing the different retail nooks and crannies and enjoyed a lovely lunch in the cafe. The menu was perhaps a little limited, but everything was beautifully presented, plentiful and delicious. By 12.30 it was full and there seemed to be many locals there, always a good sign. And I even spent a fair amount of money on trinkets, candles etc. All in all a very pleasant way to pass the time.

Lovely place. A really nice antiques place, but with a fantastic cafe buried within. Great choice of cakes - we had 5 different ones, and they were all amazing. A bit pricey but worth it for the quality and taste. Oh and the coffee is great too.

I visit this place regularly as I live nearby. I almost always buy some little trinket from the antiques units. There is always something new to look at as turnover of stock is fast. I also always have lunch there and have not yet had a bad meal. My favourite is the goats cheese, bacon and avocado salad - always freshly made. Service in the cafe is not always particularly friendly, although that is certainly not always the case. I would definitely recommend this as a great place to visit for a morning/afternoon and for lunch. NOT a place for children however.

My gran had good things to say about The Old Flight House so me and my mum decided to go with her to check it out. There was plenty of seating when we arrived at about 12.30 (Wednesday) but about an hour later the cafe was full. I opted for a ham and cheese baguette which was really tasty with REAL strong cheddar. The bowl of chips were cooked perfectly. Only complaints would be no salad garnish and no pots of tea. Interesting antique centre too.

A lovely meal and a lovely place to wander around, lovely atmosphere and a great find, been back many times, and would highly recommend !

Always enjoy having a mooch around the Old Flight House which always end with a cuppa and large slab of cake in the cafe. Hot food is also good, though maybe slightly overpriced?? Lovely surroundings, definitely worth a visit.

This was our first visit to the Café at The Old Flight House at Weston-on-the-Green and we'll definitely be back. The menu had a great variety of meals to choose from so there should be something to please everyone. We had the Goats Cheese, Avocado, Bacon & Spinach Salad and it was fabulous. We parked around the back of the building and walked through the outdoor eating area, which is yet to be spruced up for warmer weather outdoor dining.The variety of Antiques, Vintage, Paint, & Interior items for sale in the individual areas make great browsing for a wide variety of different items to furnish your home or garden.

I regularly come with friends to wander round the antiques and stop for lunch. I always seem to have spinach salad with goats cheese which is esquisite but lots of other good choices. Service is good and great venue. I highly recommend it

A lovely place to go for a coffee or lunch with the added bonus of having lots of individual areas selling antiques/vintage/French flea market finds.Well worth a visit.

We visited for breakfast. The cafe opens at 1000 and we were there by 1030. It was unfortunate that it had been a very cold night and there were heaters but it was still very cold. We were not inclined to remove coats and scarves. There are 3 choices for breakfast, bacon sandwich/roll, bacon & egg sandwich/roll and ham,egg & chips. However there is a reasonable choice of food on the rest of the menu which was available if we wished. We had a bacon sandwich and a bacon roll. Both okay and served quickly, in a friendly manner. Also had English Breakfast tea. We felt that £1.75 for a teabag in a cup with hot water was overpriced. We had a second cup each, therefore £7.00 for 4 teabags - Ouch. Why not serve tea in a pot? More water, same teabag, customer getting 2 cups and a value for money feeling.Afterwards we wandered around the antique units. A lovely place to browse.

I went here after reading a review in the Oxford Mail on how they had just got a new chef and were specialising in freshly cooked food. We've been quite a few times now for lunch. The food and service are excellent and the restaurant is spotless. It's a great setting in the antiques shop too and good for a bit of browsing of the antiques afterwards. But to be honest, we go because of the high quality food. Car park is a bit small at the front but always find a space at the back on the road quite easily.

Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch with a friend here recently. The menu is interesting and the daily specials board offers a range of tempting dishes. Everything is made from scratch, freshly in their kitchen. Good quality juices, teas and coffees are on offer. The service is excellent and the cafe is very clean. A browse in the antique centre after is a must!

We went there for lunch when visiting friends in Bicester.The outside is very unprepossessing, and the car park was full. We were able to park in the street, but the area was quite crowded. Inside, however, is lovely. The cafe is well laid out and attractive and there is more than one area with tables. You go to the counter to order and pay, and then food is brought to you. We had to clear a table to sit down, which is always a black mark in my book.We decided on salmon from the specials board. It was 1 o'clock and the salmon had run out. We then decided on the tart from the main menu, but that had run out too. In the end we both had the stuffed chicken breast, also from the specials board. It was very nice, well cooked, and a generous portion, so no complaints with the food, but as the cafe wasn't full we were quite surprised at how much had already run out.The prices are about average for a cafe of this type, perhaps slightly cheaper than some of the places we go to.After we had eaten we went to look at the 'antiques'. It is an amazing collection, attractively displayed in a number of areas. Every time we thought we had seen everything we found another area. We thoroughly enjoyed browsing, but didn't buy anything.If we lived locally this would definitely be on our list of places to go for lunch.

This is a great place to eat and drink............good value, interesting and I would confirm all the postive points. I had the chicken special......delicious.You will have to take your own newspaper though but there are hundreds of home magazines to look through.This is "no kids" place not like the Cow Shed close by which gets overrun especially in school holidays.

I took my mum for lunch here and was pleased that there is ample parking around the back as she's not too steady on her feet. We spent a while wandering around the lovely antiques and gifts before settling down at a table. It was clearly very popular and busy but the service was first class and very friendly. We both had lovely toasted sandwiches but I kind of wished I had just gone straight for a slice of one of the delicious looking cakes on display. A treasure of a find. Will be back soon!

Tucked away in the Oxfordshire countryside, I wouldn't go just for the cafe and probably wouldn't go just for the amazing stock of vintage and antique objects. The mixture of the two was just perfect though. We had coffee, then a good look round before going back to the cafe for a delicious lunch. Looking forward to visiting again!

Just popped in for a look and ended up having a wonderful lunch with my daughter having bought a bedside table and blanket box. wonderful surroundings and excellent service even though they had a large group in for lunch.

Standard statement regarding this and all my reviews: I struggle with the Trip Advisor rating system because it does not provide a particularly granular method or any useful context for restaurant reviews (for example a 5 star review for a burger joint is very different to a 5 star review for a Michelin Starred establishment). In the context of a cafe attached to an antiques centre in rural Oxfordshire my view is as follows:We usually go to The Milk Shed (which is excellent too BTW) when in the area but my wife had heard about this place and we decided to give it a try.Interesting atmosphere due to the fact that the Cafe is part of an antiques centre. Unobtrusive music, friendly staff and a varied menu with decent daily socials combine to make this an excellent experience.Standout dishes were the chicken skewers with chilli, lime and oriental slaw, a suburb spinach bacon and avocado salad and a brilliant Cajun chicken.Chunky chips were a little greasy but skinny fries were sublime!Gives The Milk Shed a run for its money - well worth a visit.

Sat amongst antiques, there is that shabby chic feel to this cafe. The food and drink is good, as is the service. The surroundings are pleasant and this combined with the cafe works well. It is certainly on my list of places worth stopping off for.

Such a lovely place to have lunch and a mooch around all the interesting articles for sale! Definitely would go back.

We've visited on a number of occasions in the past, and found good food in an interesting setting - but a few weeks ago I took a friend there for breakfast and found all had changed. The staff were now dressed in black and the food was simply dreadful.This, I assume, is why there have been no cafe reviews for the last four weeks or so.The 'bacon roll' was exactly that - a budget bread roll, buttered with two pieces of cheap bacon on top on a small plate - for £3.55. The tea was delivered with the tea bag still floating around in relatively hot water and again not of great quality (another £2). My friend had opted for a bacon and egg sandwich - served with cheap bread, and the addition of a poorly cooked clearly budget egg. Absolutely the worst breakfast wither of us had ever had - and I'm including student cooking from my past, using out of date Kwik-Save ingredients.As we sat and tried to make the best of a bad breakfast, a lady with no manners barked orders to the staff around us - treating each of them like servants, and clearly unaware of how badly her behaviour was reflecting on the establishment.Breakfast bill of £13 - ingredients less than £1, rude manager. (Although lovely polite staff clearly aware of the problems).Our advice would be head over to the Milk Shed (although not open on a Monday sadly) - or really do not bother.

Lovely cafe serving what appeared to be 'home prepared' and 'home cooked' food. Beautiful setting ... you'd never think you were just off a busy main road. Lots of parking.You walk in thru some of the antiques which are all beautifully displayed. There are lots of tables inside - amongst the antiques, and more in the garden outside.There is a good basic menu with a specials board - I chose the grilled halloumi, fennel and pomegramate salad - lovely. One friend had the goats cheese and avocado salad which she really enjoyed, and the other a tuna sandwich - which she thought was a bit lacking in texture.Will definitely go back!

What an unexpected delight. The food served in this antiques centre cafe is fresh and tasty. I recommend trying one of the delicious meals from the specials menu. The prices are very reasonable too.

We popped in when we saw reviews on this site as had no idea that it was here and glad that we did. Food cooked fresh to order with reasonable portion sizes and not bad prices for the area. We recommend a visit if you are passing to try the food.Would not want to pay the prices for some of the 'Antiques' though....

A cafe in an antiques centre???? Usually dismal greasy spoon experience but this one is the exception to the rule! Really enjoyed my meal and there were several things I would like to have tried. My husband had boring old ham, egg and chips, all of which looked so good when it arrived I nearly wished I had ordered it too, but when I tasted my lovely (large) salad of goats cheese, spinach and walnuts, I was quite happy with my choice, after all.We were surprised at how busy it was as it is rather off the beaten track - obviously it is well known to those in the area.

Absolutely yummy food! Very friendly and will be back. Next time we allow more time to look around at the antiques. Please try this lovely cafe

Super visit to a really friendly and modern, Vintage and Antique Centre. To cap it all, a really nice cafe/restaurant that caters for all tastes. We had one of the specials and one meal from the menu. Both were excellent and the extra portion of fries were great. I can strongly recommend the cakes, if you have room!! Try the lemon drizzle, it is addictive.

Met up with a friend and this place is half way for us both, I was not sure what to expect being in an Antique Centre, but I wasnt dissappointed, they offered a small but pleasant menu, from sandwichs, jacket potatoes, breakfast and hot meals. The service was prompt and the prices reasonable. That coupled with a pleasant seating area it made for a nice visit.

We went to The Old Flight House to look at antique furniture and furnishings for our imminent kitchen makeover and I was very pleasantly surprised to find not just any old café to refresh the clients, but a really good and appealing café/restaurant.My wife had an excellent smoked salmon & prawn 'basket', while I chose a well spiced home-made chilli-burger with French fries. Both included an appealing and well dressed salad. All served in attractive surroundings in the heart of the extensive and eclectic showrooms. Well done !

A lovely little place set in an old flight house were there are several stalls selling antiquities and curios. Absolutely worth a visit. Simple cafe style food but lovely for lunch.

Taken here by my sister who goes there often. We spent ages browsing around as there is so much to see. We then had a very nice lunch and I had a glass of wine. I had one of the daily specials and it was very good.I would certainly return as it is a pleasant place to spend a couple of hours.

My friend and I had a great time browsing (and buying!) curios, and well, you know, "stuff"! So to give you an example.........huge metal angel wings to hang as wall art for her, a couple funky dress of rings for me - the diversity is part of the fun; shabby chic to antique.Chalk paint to scarves and jewellery.We also enjoyed a bottle of wine and a tasty salad in the cafe and some banter with the staff - great fun all round!

It is always nice to meet friends and browse around the antique shop (which can take hours) and then have delicious cream scones for tea

In my last review I said that it was best to go to the Centre when you are hungry as the cafe was the best thing about the place, however, having revisited today I should like to take that back. I had a meal which was adequate, nothing special, and then went back later for coffee and cake. The cake was very dry and appeared a few days old, I couldn't eat it and when there was nobody in earshot I asked the waitress how old the cake was and told her that I couldn't eat it. She just laughed, so on my way out I told the owner that I was disappointed with the attitude, and the cake, and she just told me that the cake was delivered this morning and that the waitress was 'normally' very helpful. It was left at that, without offering to refund the cake, because obviously it was just me being difficult! I had very black looks from the owner's companion too, a very unpleasant experience. Needless to say, the only thing in the Antiques Centre that I might have wanted to buy was not for sale, as reported in my last review.

Lovely cafe with home made food - burgers were great, and the cakes looked amazing too! Great little location inside an antiques shop (definitely worth a look around before or after lunch!).

Interesting little place. You would not think much from the road, but once inside good staff and great food await. This is a cafe in an 'antique' shop so don't expect a great dining atmosphere. We enjoyed looking around whilst waiting for the food to be served though. Also limited menu with burger, sandwiches, salads and the like. But great quality.

I have eaten here a few times and the staff are always very friendly and the food very good. There are always specials and the salmon and spinch tart is a very good choice, it tastes good and looks homemade. We also had the ham, egg and chips, the ham was off the bone and lots of it.There is a good atmosphere as there is always people around looking at the items for sale. It's a great place to meet friends and pass an enjoyable couple of hours and be tempted to purchase something!

We went to the Old Flight House after a really busy day at Bicester Village to have a little rest and some tea as well. It was a sunny afternoon in last August and we found a nice table in the lovely garden. My Lady had the soup of the day and I had one of the best crab sandwiches ever. If your lucky like us you can see some Paras jumping out of a plane obove your heads. What nice day!

A great find. A great variety on the menu and everyone in the party could find something that they fancied. The meals were well presented and everyone was satisfied with their meals. They were tasty and good value for money.The setting in the antique setting was excellent as it extended the time of our visit.

Located in Weston on the green found this on the way to a friends house. Had the cold salmon with fennel and dill dressing with a scrumptious home made cherry Bakewell sponge for dessert. Yum scrum. The specials looked very tempting indeed. Staff were very friendly and efficient.Not only that had the luxury of being able to spend a couple of hours compiling my Christmas list.Easy parking lovely food and stress free shopping. What more can a girl want

After living in the area for many years and always driving past The Old Flight House I decided to drop in for some lunch. Once I walked in I was amazed by the size of the place and all of the magical and fantastic things they have in there. I then sat in the restaurant and had some food. The staff were very friendly and the food was top notch! Especially the chicken and avocado baguette, I'm going back! A really great experience and a great afternoon out!

I found this when looking for somewhere to lunch in Bicester with a friend. Unfortunately the place I chose was closed for holidays (in August?) so we got in the car and drove here.It is actually just outside Weston on the Green village on the way to Oxford. It is however well worth the short trip!!!Nice lunches, homemade cakes, friendly staff, clean, well run place, lots of lovely things to browse round inc antiques/bric a brac etc.So good I went back 3 days later with my husband and he enjoyed it too. We'll be back soon! Don't change anything please:)
