Copper Kitchen in Cherwell

Lively food as always. Great people

Great service from all staff, welcoming us in and regularly checking on us throughout our meal. Food was exceptional and we will definitely be visiting again soon!

Four of us went for a birthday meal. Never been before so was really looking forward to it. Really disappointing!. The steaks that we wanted weren't available, only ones available were of course, the most expensive!. Starters (bbq chicken thighs) was tastless. Then had to wait for over 30 minutes for our mains. Steak was the worst I've had anywhere. Sadly very disappointing and won't return.

My partner and I came here for our first time for double celebration! Anniversary and sold our house. Staff were very friendly and welcoming on arrival. Service was excellent. I had a steak with mushrooms sauce, sautéed mushrooms and chips and it was honestly the best meal I've ever had I a restaurant. It was all cooked perfectly. My partner had the burger and he thoroughly enjoyed his. Desserts I had chocolate chip brownie and my partner had sticky toffee pudding. Food was outstanding. We were the only ones in the restaurant at the time but we liked it as it wasn't to noisy another couple did come in later. It's really lovely and romantic. The chef came out and spoke to us which was lovely . Overall, great experience. We will definitely become there new regular customers 😀

One of the best restaurants in Bicester. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Definitely recommend. We will definitely revisit

Copper kitchen is a hidden gem just short of a 10 minute drive from Bicester Village. At first you may think it’s an ordinary pub but it’s much more than that. When you walk in you are welcomed by the warm atmosphere created by not only their decor but their lovely staff! The food was delicious, warm and met the standards of the name! We went their for my mums birthday and the owner had emailed me ahead of time to ask whether we would like to have a birthday banner hung up for her which I thought was a lovely touch and even better made my. Mother smile as it was the first thing she saw when we walked in. We were the last ones to leave as you are when you’re celebrating and the staff were lovely and asked us how everything was, how our days were and wished us the best time for the rest of our stay which really rounded up our experience and felt to us it is a very family friendly place to have found in Bicester!

Phenomenal food, service and atmosphere! The food was delicious (highly recommend the homemade beef burger). Amazing service and a lovely, calm environment. Will be back very soon!

Been here with my wife and kids. The food was amazing, we ordered the prawns for starters and sea bass as a main course paired with a glass of fine white wine. Excellent service and a very nice atmosphere 10/10 would recommend and bring back family and friends

Braise Shoulder lamb was excellent that we had to reorder second round! Confiet duck was great as well. We really enjoy the food here. The place is clean and the service is good. Would go back again.

Compliments to the chef! The lamb shoulder was our absolute favourite. As well as incredible food in this quant restaurant, our waitress Mia was not only friendly and warm but you can see also takes great pride in her job - showing a deep knowledge of the menu and she was spot on! Would highly recommend this place - deserving of 5 stars.

Lovely neighborhood restaurant! The owner who is also the chef was very friendly and accommodated all of our dietary restrictions. The sea bass and rib eye were really tasty. Would definitely come back again!

Loved it! We booked late because parking is not the best we were a bit late for our booking, everyone was lovely about this and put us at ease immediately. The lovely waitresses were very attentive but not pushy, and the owner even came and had a chat to us just before we left, as we were the last to leave.

Amazing food and really lovely attentive lovely staff!! One of the best restaurants in Bicester by a mile. Absolutely recommend!

Really enjoyable visit, great food and excellent service! Would definitely visit again when in Bicester.

Great food with a good choice of starters, mains and desserts. Service was quick, good and friendly. A very nice atmosphere and all round experience. Definitely one to return to.

We had a Fantastic meal, we booked last minute, but was very impressed by both the food and the staff., who were very friendly and helpful.

We popped in for dinner before driving back to London after a shopping excursion! The team were amazing and so friendly and the food was amazing and the service was with a smile! Seabass was sensation and the linguine is probably one of that I have eaten! Thank you so much! We will be back again soon hopefully!

amazing food with amazing service!! everyone is so kind and welcoming, food was cooked to perfection! me and the family absolutely loved it!

My girlfriend loves the duck confit with the Argentinian Malbec! I always get the filet steak and mushrooms. 🥰 it’s divine and cooked to perfection don’t sleep on this place!

The food at Copper Kitchen is always very good. The staff are welcoming and the restaurant looks clean and well organised. Since the restaurant opened, the seating area has expanded, which is testament to Copper Kitchen's success. This is either the best or joint-best (nod to Denis) restaurant in Bicester.

We really enjoyed our dinner here. The steak was a bit over cooked but still tasty. The fries were delicious. Very enjoyable. We also had a vegan friend who was able to get the pasta dairy free which was really nice.

I visited again and the service was warm and friendly, I requested for extra mushroom to my American Breakfast and I was given, mushroom was juicy and the meal tasty as usual, I had a pleasant day with the company of my friend. The atmosphere was also nice, as it happened to be my birthday 🎂, I enjoyed the meal , the atmosphere and the service rendered. Would definitely be visiting soon.

We had dinner at this restaurant yesterday and it was great. Being a local Bicester resident, we've not visited restaurants on this side but we were glad we visited. They offer a great locally sourced 3 course menu for dinner but we went for 2 courses only as we were heading for a movie. I ordered the meat of the day which was steak with spinach which was great. My better half ordered the fish of the day and they were nice to customise the dish so she could have the salmon with beans and potato. The food arrived fairly quickly and the taste was great. The staff were excellent and surprised me for my birthday with an Eton mess dessert. Would visit again and highly recommended!

First time there would go back again would recommend it if your in the area.

Lovely meals cooked with care. Reccomended for a couples evening out 😊

Visiting friends in Bicester and needed early dinner before heading home. We arrived about 5.30pm. Friendly staff and between the 3 of us we had duck and fish dishes. All were perfectly cooked and very tasty. The panne cotta was delicious ! Had a lovely chat with the staff about how Bicester has changed. We used to live there. An excellent meal, highly recommend.

The chicken was probably the best I’ve had all year. My daughter had a burger and it was pretty special too - they know how to cook and prepare food to perfection here, it’s not your every day meal. Worth a visit!

Delicious food. Waiting staff warm and friendly.

Lovely place. Staff very friendly and attentive. Good atmosphere. I had confit of duck leg with dauphinoise potatoes, red cabbage and courgettes. It was fantastic. I first went here for lunch and unfortunately they are only open for dinner at the moment. We will definitely be going back.

Very much enjoyed the food, the service and the atmosphere at Copper Kitchen, I was not hugely hungry so did not have a starter, just a main and it was beautiful. Grilled chicken breast with gnocchi in a blue cheese, kale and pepper sauce. I asked them to go easy on the blue and that request was granted with a smile- fresh and made to order-nice! All of the staff were so friendly and personable and there was plenty of choice on the menu. We will definitely be back

Absolutely delicious food, perfect service and highly recommended.

I struggled to find the dishes that were gluten free despite having requested this on booking. I was told it wasn't a problem as they had plenty of choice. Their menu should be updated to include allergens and the staff should also be trained. Most of the starters were on toast but they didn't have gluten free bread! I had venison steak in the end but it was tough and grisly. Panna cotta was the only choice for dessert. Very disappointing.

We were here with family and all of us enjoyed the food and service. I had the beef fillet steak and the squid starter which were amazig. I reccomand this place if you are after some good food and service.

Lovely little place, very well decorated and very welcoming. Had a quick dinner before catching the train and lucky we did as it was really really nice, reminded me of some French bistros. Definitely worth visiting

cute little restaurant the duck dish was delicious the night we went they did not have several items on the menu which i thought was poor for a saturday night. its quite an expensive menu and i dont agree with the high charge of service charge (around £6) service was average by young waitresses i would prefer to tip at my own accord happy with the food we had that night

We were visiting Bicester and after the shopping we got hungry and wanted to eat somewhere different from the shopping centre. One of the staff members recommended Copper Kitchen and it did not disappoint us at all, old rustic building, young polite staff and very good food. I had the lamb steak that was really cooked well and the vegetables were absolutely tasty, where as the others had chicken, duck and goulash which they enjoyed them very much too. We surly will be back here when we visit back again.

Been here a few times now and the more I go the more I like it. I always have the steak and it is always perfectly cooked, whereas my partner loves the seabass here. I truly recommend this place if you are after some amazing food and beautiful atmosphere.

Very disappointed with last nights meal… This was a little regular restaurant that friends would meet up at for a lovely dinner. Last night was very different unfortunately. We arrived and sat in the back area along with 1 other couple. The young waitress came to tell us the specials which had the steak, spinach and chips which we usually have as it’s so good! After the refurbishment I thought they may have changed the menu a bit but it is still the same (needs changing) so all 3 of us ordered the steak special- the waitress then returns telling us there is only 1 left!!! Reluctantly we reorder 1 steak, 1 confit duck and 1 prawn linguine. The wine we ordered from the menu wasn’t available, so she bought up another one (which was fine) The food took ages considering we were now the only people in the restaurant and when it arrived (one by one with quite big gaps between each plate being delivered to the table) the steak was overdone, so was everything on the duck plate and the linguine was really really spicy!! We ordered coffees, the Irish coffee arrived and was only half a glass?…. Used to love this place but have been really put off now- not sure if it’s under new management or staff?

Great food and great service. Really nice ambience. The only thing that is disappointing is the 10% service charge on every bill. Seems everyone is doing this now. Take it off we are not America. I would always tip if service is good regardless.

A lovely meal, great service and nice atmosphere. What more could you want from a nice bistro. I would definitely recommend this place and I will be back.

Lovely food great staff and lovely surroundings

Had to ask three times for our drinks to finally arrive. One member of staff clearly didn't want to be working. One of our glasses for water had a big chip on the rim. The menus all need updating, they are tatty and have spelling mistakes. The food, however, was great and overall the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere. With a few small touches, Copper Kitchen could be great, but overall the service and having a number of menu items not available, it was a bit of a let down.

Food and service were nice, coffee wasn't good.

First time visiting. We were looking for a quiet lunch with great food and service - we found all that here. Recommended.

Copper Kitchen is a great local independent restaurant which serves freshly cooked tasty food. The staff are very friendly and willing to accommodate the needs of any group. The food and drink is also reasonably priced for a restaurant. I'd recommend it for a leisurely bite to eat.

The most delicious steak I've ever had!

Fantastic place to eat everything was spot on will definitely be going back again and again.

Another amazing Christmas meal for our company "do". Beautiful food as always, great choice for vegans and vegetarians. A cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Excellent customer service as usual. Thank you again for being so accommodating Kushtrim and team. See you again soon.

Cozy but sit at the back of the restaurant otherwise it's too draughty.

A mixed bag. The restaurant is a lovely rustic building, no airs and very relaxed. we found a couple of thing’s disappointing. Two of the group ordered rib eye steak. Both said it was sinewy and somewhat chewy. I was offered a couple of pieces and can confirm their view. Two of us ordered Nepalese curry which was very nice indeed. Served with fresh vegetables and rice all cooked perfectly. The steak eaters ordered a bottle of pinot noir, which is their preferred red. It wasn’t available. Why have it on the list then? I’ve read reviews and had friends report very favourably of The Copper Kitchen but we left feeling a bit disappointed.

I went for lunch the staff are excellent the menu is great value and the food was fantastic well done would recommend to try the Copper Kitchen soon

Today (11 Nov) is the second time we visited for breakfast. We enjoyed the first time as the service was good. Today, the breakfast is slightly different as compared to the first time. The bread and sausages for the full English are different. Portion of baked beans also different. The great difference is the service. Two young servers today. Coffee missing the biscuit, no cutlery till food arrived. No check back and when I paid at the counter, the person who served us was busy texting and the other did not know which table we are paying for. I have to tell her my order. Will still come back but hope the service improves.

A lovely restaurant with some unique food options. Loved the ambience and delicious food.

Rude person who answered the phone hung up twice after my trying to ask for a manager, never phoned before so this to me was just bizarre. rude member of staff needs a lesson in manners.

Very very nice food, perfect for a nice meal out. Came to Bicester for shopping but the food has also broadened my horizons. Would highly recommend

Had an excellent evening with friends . Highly recommend this place

The food is so nice... simple but very nice

Delicious food and friendly staff. A really nice place to drop in for dinner.

Had a lovely meal with my partner here the other night. We went quite early so it was quite quiet, but the atmosphere was nice and peaceful. The food was lovely and portion size matched my personal preference - I was full but not bloated and we ate everything on our plates. We had the confit duck and halloumi burger, both delicious! For dessert we had sticky toffee pudding and raspberry panacotta, both great but our fav was definitely the panacotta.

Best meal out in a long time, beautiful setting & such lovely staff, we will be back soon

Great place, lovely people and delicious food.

After seeing reviews tried this restaurant. Absolutely Superb...ambience...food.. particularly service. Will Go again in a flash

The Copper Kitchen is a little gem in Bicester. Nice varied menu. We had beautifully cooked filet steak and risotto served by friendly keen staff. Well done!

Quite satisfied with the quality of the food. We had king prawn linguini, which was tasty, seven fat prawns each!

Great place with amazing food... the staff were super friendly and helpful too. This is a must for high quality food in this area.

Absolutely fantastic. Food was amazing, service was great. Went for the Mrs birthday and couldn't be happier. Worth every penny and will definitely be back.

On Friday night, my husband and I chose this establishment to celebrate our third wedding anniversary, and it turned out to be an exceptional experience. The quality of the food surpassed our expectations; it was simply outstanding. The dishes were prepared with utmost care, ensuring they were fresh and served hot, enhancing our dining pleasure. Equally noteworthy was the excellent customer service provided by the waiters and waitresses. Their professionalism shone through as they attended to our needs attentively and with a friendly demeanor. Their presence added to the overall enjoyment of our evening. We were also enamored by the romantic ambiance of the place. The atmosphere created a perfect setting for our special occasion, and we found ourselves truly immersed in the delightful vibe of the restaurant. Without a doubt, we have already made up our minds to return in the future. This establishment has earned our loyalty, and we wholeheartedly recommend Coppers Kitchen to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience.

Really lovely restaurant. They were out of the Lamb Shoulder when we went but subbed it for lamb steak which we had rare and it was exquisite! Also had a Goulash which too was cooked to perfection. All the staff were lovely and the place generally has a really relaxed vibe even when busy! Will 100% be going again.

Superb food, friendly atmosphere and service. Highly recommend this delightful restaurant.

My first trip here - the food was OK, but small portions and quite expensive for OK I thought. The place is very cute, and the staff were very pleasant!

Great meal in attractive restaurant. My friends had fillet steak, expensive, but they said possibly the best steak ever! I had goulash and that was awesome too. Also great service, with friendly advice on the dishes. Wouldn't hesitate to go back!

Amazing restaurant, really attentive staff and the food was of high quality. One of, if not, the best panna cottas I have ever experienced. Throughly recommend, if just for the pudding.

Awful. Steak was severely over cooked, ingredients aren’t fresh or quality

The food is extremely poor for the price. I ordered a starter of prawns and chorizo for £9.95. This was served in its entirety on a piece of shop bought small brown bread. There was nothing which particularly stood out with the dish at all. For the main, I had a Himalayan Lamb curry. This was £25. The lamb curry itself was very nice & extremely tender. This was served however with a small microwaved veg portion, and plain uncle bens or similar, microwaved rice. For £25, serving a curry with microwaved rice is shocking. My partner had chicken supreme, which was nothing more than a small chicken leg with a side of risotto and cost £18. All together the bill was £75 for a really poor quality meal. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, and it’s probably the worst meal I’ve ever had considering value. On a side note, the waiting staff were extremely attentive & this isn’t a reflection on them at all. Similarly the decor in the place is fantastic which gives the feel that the food is going to be much better than it actually is. James

Visited lasted night and was really looking forward to it. The menu online looked amazing. We've dined out around the world not much in the UK to be honest. But we were really surprised when we ordered the special which was an 8 oz steak and got the bill and was charged £32 when the menu had a 10oz steak for £22. I asked the server and was told it's because it was the special! We were really confused to be honest. Also the special.price was not displayed so maybe we should have asked before but just assumed it's a 'special'. Is the special always more than what's on the menu here and why is the steak a smaller size but more expensive? This definitely would make me think twice about going again. Sadly because the place is simply gorgeous. My starter also had to be sent back because my bread was stone cold and the soup of the day was also lukewarm. We also took our 4 year old daughter and she was ok, she had fries which she was happy with.

This is a little gem of a restaurant in Bicester. The food was divine. I had the steak and my mum and friend had seabass. All were cooked to perfection. Staff were great and looked after us well. Definitely eat at this lovely local family restaurant. The best in Bicester

Having been several times over the years, I've noticed recent changes. Unfortunately quality has dropped and my steak was over cooked. It was OK, but that's all. I've had comparable steaks in Weathespoons at a third of the price. Hopefully this was a one-off.

The place is nice and clean and the service is kind. Unfortunately no any drink on tap. 😔 My beef burger was perfect, the first place in England I got mustard in it, what was a bonus as I think it's a must. The beef patty melting and moist. Enough for dinner and coming with chips. The chef definitely love to cook here. 👍🏻I believe any food will be good from their menu.👌🏻

We went for dinner last night, six of us and a child. The food was excellent, all six of us were very happy with our choices. Child’s menu not offered, but they cooked fish and chips for her which was well received. The service was first class, the waiting staff were friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere. One small thing, please update your website menu, two desserts that we anticipated were no longer on the menu. Slightly disappointing. Otherwise first class, would definitely recommend and visit again. Thank you.

Really well cooked steak and great atmosphere

Awesome food, awesome servicel. Review from a German stickler ;)

Great food, the chef knows how to cook! Friendly helpful service. I would recommend.

Lovely for a romantic evening out with the other half.

Been here a couple of times. Food is usually brilliant. I had the Chicken Supreme last time which was great and my husband had the steak. The Steak was meant to be medium but was actually well done and wasn't that great.

Excellent food, fabulous wine, convivial atmosphere and very professional and friendly service. Not much else to say really... Except that if they have the pan fried sole for main and the panna cotta for pudding, have them! They are to die for. I strongly advice booking - we saw many would be customers turned away.

Lovely restaurant Great food Lovely service

Love this place!! The Pear walnut and blue cheese salad starter is AMAZING! And the steaks are always cooked to perfection.

Have recently started to eat gluten free. The staff couldn't have been more helpful or knowledgable about what I could eat. I had a choice of a few mains. Chose Chicken Supreme. Delicious! My 6 year old grandson had just what he wanted including ketchup but not on his burger. Charming staff, delicious food, what not to like!

A very pleasant evening with friends. Excellent food freshly cooked to order.

We had a delicious meal on Friday - great setting, attentive staff and most importantly delicious food! We will be back (again!) Thank you

What an amazing dinner . Called In on the way home ordered take away. We had everything to share as the wife is sometimes fussy .We had the blue cheese, walnut, date, and pear with balsamic salad. And mozzarella wrapped in ham in toast and the confit duck with dauphinoise and red cabbage with a side of vegetables. The atmosphere in there seemed to be very good. Staff were very friendly and even got a part cooking lesson from the chef about why he had flame grilled the veg to release extra flavour. And all the dishes were delicious.

Nice food, great atmosphere. Thanks!

My partner and I visited the Copper kitchen restaurant for our Valentines evening meal, it was absolutely delicious, cooked perfectly and the service was first class from the lovely staff Will most definitely be going there again and would highly recommend to anyone

Walked in off the street...was lucky to get table, not so many people were. Food was excellent ...would highly recommend

I would rate food 10 out of 5, service 3 out 5(cappuchino cup was covered in cinnamon and taste from cup to cup differs). I recommend to visit. 🥰

The food was delicious and the service was terrific, I recommend this restaurant for all.

Great food, great service, meat seasoned to perfection.
