Deddington Arms Hotel and Restaurant in Cherwell

Rooms was OK. Food was really good

Lovely visit. Solomon, Kim, and Rosie were professional, polite, and marvellous. Food was wonderful. Huge portions though. Lovely dinning room. Easy to book. We will definitely return. Thank you

Food was tasty, service friendly. Mac n Cheese a bit runny but tasted good. Ham, egg and chips lovely. Generous portions.

Lovely old coaching inn in a quaint Cotswold Town. Nice friendly atmosphere and staff. A lovely breakfast to start you up for the day A good sized room but only down side was being 6 feet I had to duck down when having shower. Definately would and will return.

Stuck in the dark ages.. Kitchen closed on a Saturday afternoon

Nice place to stay, food good too.

We had a great stay on both occasions. Staff really friendly, amazing food and plenty of parking spaces. We will come back next year.

We stayed here on a two night Travelzoo deal which was good value. The room we stayed in (no 14) was adequate but a little tired and would really benefit from a refurbishment. The bathroom in particular, although clean, could do with updating (the shower wasn’t great!). On the positive side the food was really good. We had an evening meal on our first night and it was excellent. Nice dining room and good service. The only thing that annoys me is they add on 12.5% service charge. I don’t mind tipping for good service (and usually do) but I don’t like it when a set amount is added to the bill. Breakfast was good with a choice of cold starters and a choice of hot food cooked to order. The staff working on both mornings were friendly. In summary I would give 3 stars for the room and 5 stars for the food, so overall 4 stars.

This is a lovely place to stay, definitely recommend it and as a bonus it is also dog friendly, without having to pay an astronomical fee. Surprisingly it is a budget hotel but this does not effect the quality. It is clean, with the room having everything that you need. It is situated in a lovely village with plenty of places to eat, however food is served here, which is great quality. The breakfast is on an order basis for the hot side and a selection of cold items to enjoy too. The lady who worked on the breakfasts was lovely (sorry did not get her name), she was so welcoming and friendly it made our breakfast experience even better. Definitely would return here if visiting this area. Don't change this is perfect!

Struggled to pay for the room on arrival at 3pm as reception was closed , finally paid before we checked out the next morning bit even that was a struggle to find someone who could take the money But apart from that, the room was big and comfortable. Breakfast was brilliant and a big shout out to the Bar staff who were very helpful throughout and suggested the best way for us to get to banbury

Used this place as a stop for the blenheim game fair.freindly staff.nice food but not much choice.nice location but not much going on in Deddington.would stay again.

Lovely location in a quaint village setting. Welcoming staff. For us, close enough to Silverstone Circuit to make a weekend away for MotoGP.

Stopped for a bite to eat had some really good gluten free fish and chips.

Arranged for an Afternoon Tea for myself and a large group of friends at the Deddington Arms Hotel. Arrived slightly early which did not cause any problem. Excellent selection of various sandwiches, cakes and of course scones with jam and cream. Tea and coffee served thought our meal which was complemented by 3 different cask ales. Served by very friendly staff so professionally. Will definitely return for future for maybe next time an lunch or evening meal.

We visited the art exhibition and decided to stay for lunch. Nothing was said to us about a wait but we waited an hour from giving our order to the meals arriving. The waitress, after we asked how much long we had to wait, was very apologetic but by then we had “lost the will to live”. Our daughter is a vegan and there seemed to be nothing totally suitable for her. She opted for a vegetarian option. Unfortunately when the meals arrived all three were not really worth the amount we had to pay. The fish and chips were extremely greasy and the ham, egg and chips were ok! Couldn’t fault the staff and the service from them but I’m afraid we won’t be visiting again.

Great hotel that offers value for money a great bar and restaurant as well

uncomfortable mattress terrible sleep great water pressure and hot shower

Came for a last minute dinner on a Friday evening and was able to get a table last minute which was great. All our meals were excellent - the fish pie was very tasty and the kids raved about their children’s meals - fish and chips and burger and chips - both looked excellent. The bread and butter pudding was also fantastic. Was sorry not to see it on the menu when we returned a couple of weeks later. Excellent service and friendly staff. We rebooked for a larger family gathering following our lovely dinner, the food was very nice and service was excellent again. Food arrived quickly (although kids meals arrived with starters). The only minor negative was the cappuccino crème brulee was runny instead of set, but it still tasted very nice!

Room was very tired, black mould in bathroom. Food was excellent

Great restaurant with tasty well priced food. Room was very tired but fine if, like us, it was just a brief stop on a longer journey. Cleanliness of the room was very poor with a lot of dust on surfaces. Bathroom was particularly bad with a floor that clearly hadn't seen a hoover for a long time. The shower curtain rail was not properly fitted and kept falling down which was wasn't much fun. Staff were lovely.

For a restaurant said to have AA Rosettes the menu was somewhat lacking. I had a Halloumi Burger, which was OK, though the fries were a bit over-cooked. My friends had Salmon and Liver, both pronounced OK but not memorable. I finished with ice cream, which was fine; they both had Creme Brulee and found it "unusual". Not a complement. Was delighted to find a Hook Norton beer on offer and in good condition, though the price was decidedly high. Service was good.

Stopped at the Deddington Arms on my way back from Oxford. Lovely little place, warm with a nice open fire. Welcoming pleasant staff, nice pint of Hooky and a good sized bowl of chunky chips. Would recommend.

A great place to meet friends over a glass of wine, tea/coffee. Very reasonable breakfast menu.

What a cool little place. Keep it up!

Needed somewhere to stay whilst travelling solo and have often passed this place thinking it would be good to have the opportunity to stay. Not good enough to want to come back sadly. Room was a bit pokey and meal didn't quite work. Food I expected to be better. Felt a bit abandoned in the restaurant - asked three times for a drink which never arrived but was added to the bill...

The lack of choice for vegetarians on the lunch menu was extremely disappointing. We won't be visiting again.l

I met a friend at the Deddington Arms for lunch today, we used to meet here a lot as it’s half way between our homes and they used to do an amazing fish finger sandwich, (sadly not anymore!) We had coffee when we arrived, a black coffee and a cappuccino. My cappuccino had lots of froth and chocolate, great start…but it soon went downhill, the coffee was bitter, and tasted just like a filter coffee. We ordered a sandwich each and a portion of chips between us. We were charged an extra £3.12 service charge on top of the menu price for the food. I didn’t even get a receipt for the coffee to see if a service charge was added. When I got back to my table I checked the menu, it does say in small print that a service charge is added….Pretty disgraceful, surely a tip should be at the customers discretion? The sandwich menu was very limited, just cheese for vegetarians but it looked good when it arrived, the bread was nice and thick cut. However, the chips were nasty… they tasted greasy with a funny after taste, we think the oil must have needed changing. We ate a few drenched in salt and vinagar but even that couldn’t mask the strange taste so more than half were left. All in all nice bread but the rest very average. And the surcharge added to the menu prices automatically is wrong wrong wrong! I leave a tip if I feel the service deserves a tip,

Fabulous 2 night travel zoo deal at this lovely hotel. Immaculate bar area with roaring log fire and Christmassy atmosphere. Both our evening meals and breakfasts were amazing. Compliments to the chef. Really lovely service from all the staff and exceptional attentive friendly table service from Judith. We really enjoyed our pre Christmas break thank you 🎄😍🥂

Met up with the family for a Saturday lunch and just very underwhelming. I had a tuna baguette and very much like the par baked baguette you can get with little flavour. Most of the other meals where on the same level, disappointing. Nice selection of beers but served far too cold but perhaps just a very cold cellar? The restaurant was very quiet but on the positives the pub is nicely decorated and the service was friendly and pleasant. Would not rush back

Location is great, near the A road, but not on it. Parking too is excellent. Our bed was large and comfortable, and there’s loads of very hot water. The breakfast is perhaps the highlight – a perfectly sized, cooked and presented Full English. However the whole place is tired, and in need of a good refurb. The electrics are dodgy! And you can’t plug your phone in near the bed, a modern day must have. Dead bulbs, chipped paintwork and dusty surfaces point to poor maintenance and upkeep. And the bar – well just to say go to the Red Lion across the square if you want a friendly buzzing pub that serves decently priced food.

Absolutely fantastic, great service and great food and service, will definitely be back asap , thankyou

I used to go to Deddington arms 10 years ago and it was amazing food. But haven't been here for years now. I use the facilities before I went to sit down. There was no toilet roll. So I mentioned to the lady who seated me and she seemed to either not understand and sort of smirked and went on her business. The drinks order taken and then food order. I had mackerel for a starter. The mackerel was hot, had lots of bones and the potatoes salad was very cold and bland. I had to pop to the toilet for 2 mins and came back and they had cleared my table so had to be reseated and a new drink and wait for my Sunday roast. Again I mentioned there was no toilet roll in either loo. It took quite a while for the food to come. It was plonked on the table. No asking if I'd like sauces. The staff all seemed very vacant. Busy but not to be able to read when somebody needs something and when asked their English prohibited them to understand properly. When trying to get the attention of somebody by saying excuse me....... The guy who was on the next table cleaning completely ignored me until I waved and stood up. Food was okay. Meat was okay. The potatoes were either kept warm or reheated and weren't pleasant. The plate was small. I'd seen some other customers near me with huge plates which gave me a good idea of what I might get. I dont usually order roasts. But this sold it to me. £18 for 3 potatoes and Yorkshire pudding, a carrot and parsnip with some pork is not worth it. It was nothing special at all. I then paid and popped to the toilet again and it was still out of toilet roll. Luckily I always have spare but this isn't acceptable. I was very disappointed and years of recommending it. I will now be saying to avoid it. Not worth the money any more. Such a shame.

Welcoming staff greeted the three of us. We all had different mains - chicken & chorizo linguine, spiced salmon, burger - which were all great. Two deserts - coffee and Baileys cheesecake was excellent. Eton mess - ok. Reasonable prices, pleasant bar area and attentive staff.

Attracted by the offer of a cream tea, we visited this hotel for a three nights stay. Our room was comfortable and our welcome was warm. Parking on-site was plentiful. The cream tea, scones, were delicious and the restaurant was exceptional in that the choice of breakfast fare whether a continental breakfast, cereal or a full English was requested. Our full English arrived promptly each morning and they arrived quickly and hot. It was perfect every morning with gluten free toast as requested. On the last evening we enjoyed a meal in the restaurant with wine and were not disappointed. Portions were generous and everything was cooked to perfection. 'Angelo' prepares a mean Irish coffee. Our waitress, Adele, assisted by 'Soloman' each day could not do enough to make our stay a success. I would recommend this hotel as it is placed mid-point between Oxford and Bletchley. In addition, the bus to and from Oxford leaves from almost outside the hotel. Leave your car for the day?

We've had a wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable two nights stay. The hotel is very comfortable and very nicely furnished downstairs with and open fire in the bararea and a large attractive restaurant. Meals were excellent snd plentiful with a good choice on the menu. Our rooms were very comfortable and spacious with the essential tea and coffee and an informative Welcome Pack. Staff were very helpful and attentive and always on hand, giving excellent service. We've had a great, relaxed two days here and would fully recommend a visit.

Enjoyed two meals here whilst staying…good food, especially breakfasts. friendly staff. All prices seems reasonable.. Busy on the evenings, this is always a good sign.

I have stayed with your hotel previously 3 times in the past and have always enjoyed my stays. However on my trip on 30th Sept to 3rd of Oct I was given the four poster room despite the fact I booked the Premier room. I...

Stayed here for 2 nights to take advantage of deal which incuded tickest for Blenheim Palace House and Gardens. 2 nights B+B, £25 dinner allowance for one night pp and two tickest for Blenheim £230 excellent value andlaso good beer

We found this lovely place when looking for somewhere to eat on a Monday evening as most places don’t provide food.. Staff were very welcoming.. we ordered fish pie and also fish and chips. Didn’t wait long for food which came piping hot and delicious.....

Had a wonderful couple of days in June at the Deddington Arms hotel. The room was clean and spacious. There was a wide range of dishes for breakfast and evening meals. Situated in a quiet village

If you dislike or have an allergy to Garlic do not come here. My partner and I went to have Sunday lunch today only to be told that not only the Roast Beef and Roast Pork were cooked with Garlic, the roast potatoes were too....

We felt welcome from the moment we arrived at reception until the morning we left. This was our 3rd visit to the Deddington Arms and as usual the staff were friendly and efficient. There are rooms on two different levels so stairs are not a...

Really good early evening Dinner they wernt serving food when arrived so had a drink and waited. Waiter was nice enough to let us order early and it was worth it, shared the short rib pancake rolls and they were delicious. Both went for the...

Found this by chance when taking a country route from the Cotswolds to Cambridge. Lovely meal. Still serving at 2pm. Good choice on the menu. I had poached salmon and my husband had mussels. Quick service. Very friendly.

We had a particularly good sandwich lunch here today - it certainly has the feel of a place that cares about food. Recommend it! Worth having a stroll round the village and the church too.

Lovely menu choice and good size portions. Wonderful breakfast too with lots of choice. Eggs Royale are too die for

The three of us had a delicious meal earlier this month, one lunch time. We each had something different, the mushroom risotto, lamb pie & myself THE most delicious liver. All cooked to perfection and with delicious vegetables. Great service too. Cannot wait to return...

We've just enjoyed a lovely lunch here. The choice was great, the food couldn't be faulted and was beautifully presented. The staff were all very obliging, this was especially appreciated as we messed them about with the time, half of our party being one hour...

Had a 2 night stay here in October with friends, the rooms were fine, a bit on the small side, but clean and comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised with the restaurant in the evenings, every dish we tried, we found to be very good and...

Stay overnight. Food here is excellent. Wife had fish and I had the healthier steak and ale pie offering. Both were excellent. We were pleased to say there was also plenty of veg which isn't always the case at some places. Highly recommended

Ate here on first night of our 3 day stayVery busy restaurant Had a very good birthday mealPlease update your menu online to match the menu at the tablePrices online were somewhat cheaper than what we paid !!Also, we are all aware of the difficulty in recruiting staff in these difficult times but please give them some form of basic training before you let them face the public when pulling a pint of beer, it was so embarrassing watching the young man struggle

We visit Deddington Arms hotel and Restaurant via Travel Zoo offer. Very good value for money however we expected the hotel rooms to have been refurbished. However they had not been refurbished and are in desperate need to be. The standard of cleaning was very poor.Lovely towels, bedding and a comfortable bed. The manager tried to accommodate us and gave a bottle of wine with our evening meal. The food was excellent and the restaurant looked like it had been refurbished. All staff friendly and professional. The only thing I would suggest is to encourage guests to wear a mask when helping themselves to breakfast at the self service area. This was a concern to us and our friends especially when covid numbers are going up.

First time out out for many months and this did not disappoint. I chose mackerel with a mild curry sauce as a starter. Mackerel had beautiful crispy skin, perfectly cooked and the sauce complemented it really well. My main was belly pork served with creamy mash. My request for gravy was was honoured, also delicious. The best crackling, golden and crispy, on the outside of the pork. Melting tender meat and buttery smooth mash all contributed to me being very, very happy. Couldn’t find room for as much as a small lump of cheese afterwards.I would highly recommend.

We were booked for two nights for B&B. The pub itself is ok. The dining room is the best decorated room in the whole place and isn't reflected in the guests rooms. Our room was outside and up a stair case in the 'new' part of the hotel. The floor near the wash basin in our room (No:23) was boiling hot. Our friends were staying in the room downstairs and their room was like a sauna. In fact, it was so hot that they changed rooms! We were told it was hot water pipes running under the floor and not underfloor heating but in the height of summer this was unbearable. The room itself was ok could do with a bit of TLC but the bed was ok and there was hot water. The breakfast was good as was the sunday lunch we stayed for. The room was cheap and to a certain extent you get what you pay for!

We had our dinner here and was really nice,and they looked after my grandson well to,was nice and clean and airy for sitting in to eat.

We stayed here for a 2 night break and I was amazed at how great the food was.The waiting staff were helpful and charming.The only criticism would be the saucers of prepacked sauces on the table which seemed out of place in a restaurant that produced food of such quality.

We arrived on a very wet day and the hotel looked gloomy and dull also the room had little colour. However the staff more than compensated and were very helpful. The food was superb without breaking the bank and served in a professional and friendly way in these very trying times.

We have just returned home from a wonderful Sunday lunch prior to lockdown hitting us on Thursday. Everything about it was First Class. 5⭐️. Staff and Service, Food and presentation it was 100% Excellence. Thankyou to Matthew and Angelo for making out lunchtime so memorable.

My friend and I had booked this hotel with the intention of going in March, then COVID struck. We decided that October would be perfect. We had stayed here a few years ago and it was lovely. However.........The small room had a double bed when I had requested a twin. That was changed to a twin with virtually no gap between the beds, the duvet cover wasn’t put on properly- looked like a crocodile was inside it!-, no sheets on either bed and bedside table stuck in the middle of the room. I went to ask for sheets, a girl arrived with them so my friend and I set about making the beds properly, putting the bedside table between the beds. We didn’t notice until bedtime that there was no cold water in the bathroom basin. In fact it was boiling! Before breakfast the next day we tried to have a shower but there was no hot water in the shower, although plenty in the basin taps. The shower curtain was disgusting. It was absolutely filthy. I wouldn’t have cleaned the floor with it for fear of getting the floor dirty. The windowsill and window frame were also filthy abs had cobwebs and a dead daddy long legs.So, another complaint to reception only to be told workmen had been in the bathroom and were supposed to have sorted the water, and they obviously hadn’t cleaned up after themselves!!! Ummm!!! Who’s job is it to check????????????? After breakfast, the shower curtain was changed but the cobweb and daddy long legs had been brushed on to the floor. Aargh! At no point did I get the impression that anyone cared whether we were there or not. Nor did we feel particularly COVID safe in the bathroom area. Excuse after excuse. Another one was,’ oh I haven’t checked that room yet!’ Then why was it allocated to guests??? The food was fantastic though. That’s the only reason I’ve given this review a 2! We had one meal in our deal, and were happy enough to eat in again the second night. After all the hassle we were told we had nothing to pay. I know this has been a hard year, but it’s been hard for everyone. We don’t ask for a lot. Is a decent, clean room where everything has been checked too much to ask for? This was our first time away for 3 years because we each have ageing parents, so don’t get to see each other much. Can you imagine going abroad and getting this sort of treatment? People who care about their businesses want people to stay and want to make people feel welcome and will do everything to ensure safety and comfort come first. I can honestly say that we felt that neither of these things were in place in the hotel. It really was shocking! Definitely will not be going back. The management should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

Stopped here today 31 Aug for a drink and something to eat whilst out on the motorbike. Excellent courteous service, good menu with range of hot food or sandwiches so we ordered some sandwiches and drinks to eat outside. The sandwiches were larger than expected, doorstep cut fresh bread and really delicious, served quickly with fresh drinks. Couldn't ask for more and will stop here next time I am passing. The indoor restaurant was packed for BH Monday and I can see why.

Great food and pub I have dined here many times (most recently early March) the bar staff are friendly, the Pizzas are highly recommended. The pub its self is very nice inside.

Stayed at the Deddington Arms for a two night stay as part of a special deal that included entrance to a local attraction. What a bargain! The room was clean and comfortable, breakfast and dinner were delicious and all the staff were lovely. We chose Blenheim Palace for our day out and had a fantastic day exploring the palace and grounds. All in all, a very enjoyable break.

Saw a bill-board advertisement for afternoon tea whilst driving through the village of Deddington. Cream tea for £7.50 looked a bargain. On entering the premises and asking for 2 cream teas, the waitress looked at me as if I were from a different planet. Scones? Blank looks. Eventually took the waitress outside the pub and showed her the billboard! After a short while one cream tea arrived, but no tea. Eventually a more knowledgeable waitress arrived, and soon after the tea and the other scones. Worth the wait though!

I booked the hotel as it was central for us all to meet. Lovely rooms, really friendly and helpful staff. As was everyone we met in the village. Great dinner as well especially the puds. Well worth a visit.

Excellent location for birthday and wedding anniversary celebrations. Food and service were really good and the restaurant decor was very welcoming. Pity it wasn't busier

Een heerlijk hotel! Een prima kamer en dito bed! Heerlijk rustig en zeer authentiek! In de ochtend een uitgebreid ontbijt menu!

I have a friend who lives in the village so we've been for lunch a few times together, usually early in the week.The staff are always welcoming and attentive and they have great food choices. I can't recommend their vegetarian bangers and mash highly enough!Thanks for another lovely afternoon.

A group of us were on a super car tour of the area, and Deddington looks lovely. We walked into the restaurant and bar, and whilst my friends waited to order drinks at the bar I went to ask if there was the possibility of a table for 7 - just on the off chance. It was pretty busy, but I could see a few empty tables across the room.I stood at the counter, and a lady was behind the counter (it looked like she was working on someone’s bill). Without so much as looking up - she said ‘I’ll be with you in a moment’. I replied ‘Of course, no problem.’ But a minute turned into two, then three. Still not a further word - nor eye contact. That turned into 5 minutes, by which point I was kind of bemused - it was getting embarrassing as I was literally standing two feet away and had zero response since her initial comment. I could see she was busy, and busily crossing off bits on a bill. Then finally, she stopped writing - and without a word or eye contact just marched off into the distance and disappeared. I kind of laughed to myself, and there were a couple of her other colleagues behind her also at the counter. I tried to speak to a man, and said to him (and I was still bemused, it was almost funny) that I’d been waiting 5 minutes for that lady, and she just walked off without a further word. I wasn’t being rude or grumpy - I was just trying to ask the question about the availability of a table. However, this very rude Italian man snapped at me ‘she’s very busy serving the 80 people already in the building - and not just someone who just wandered in the door’. I couldn’t believe the severity of his response and smiled and kind of chuckled, and said I can see he’s busy - but there’s no need to be rude. I wasn’t being rude to him (but was rapidly approaching where I wanted to be). He snapped back that she’s busy and hasn’t got time to talk to you. I said ‘there’s no need to be rude or aggressive with me’. He said again ‘we’re busy - so feel free to leave.’ And he literally pointed at the door. Which is a first for me. I’ve never, ever been told to leave a restaurant in my life. I would strongly suggest that management trains staff how to communicate with customers whilst under pressure. Had either of them said - I’m so sorry, we’re really busy and we don’t have a table or can’t serve you - I’d have accepted that, and gone elsewhere instead - no hard feelings.Instead, he was unbelievably rude, and maddening and unnecessarily hostile. So we went to the next village, and cancelled our drinks and we all walked out. Thankfully their staff were welcoming, friendly and made us feel very welcome. To summarise I can’t comment on their food, or their drinks - but I can tell you that if they’re busy or under pressure you’re going to get rude service. Which is a shame. But at least we’ve now got a lovely place to go next time we’re in the area. And it’s 100% NOT the Deddington Arms that we’d recommend.

Excellent lunch time meal. Staff very friendly and helpful. Chef happy to tweek meals to suit dietary requests. Delightful, informal dining room with tables well spaced and comfortable chairs. Car parking at rear. Will definitely return again.

I'll start by saying this isn't a 5 star Hotel.What you get is super comfy beds,powerful showers large bedrooms with superb food at very reasonable prices.But the Crowning glory has to be the staff.They are a complete credit to the Company.From front of house Lyn to the super helpful Georgie who just can't do enough.If you have a problem it is solved immediately in a polite professional way.I believe a refurb of the bedrooms is on the agenda which will be super.Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and we will certainly be backMany thanks Julie and David

Two nights break at our favourite Oxfordshire hotel. Everything very good value and quality as usual.

Lovely two night break, clean and comfy room, helpful staff, great food. A bonus to have Oxford sightseeing tickets included, definitely worth doing. If I had a complaint, the bathroom taps and grouting need replacing, but the rest of the room was immaculate. I would definitely return. The village of Deddington is beautiful too.

Great atmosphere inside the restaurant, bar not so much ,outside not so inviting, table staff friendly and efficient, meal very good and generous ,overall no hesitation in revisiting , slightly pricey but worth it, senior staff engaged in conversation when leaving so no thank you ,slightly annoying !

Improved since my last visit, seems to have gone a bit more up market with a more extensive menu. We had scallops to start and a pasta dish for mains all of which was cooked well and lovely.

Good no nonsense food, well cooked and tasty. There is plenty of room to move easily between tables. Cheerful and helpful staff. Good disable access and no steps.

Good central place to tour cotswold and surrounding parts of Oxfordshire, nice rooms and comfortable beds, food is very good, would definitely return.

We have been passing The Deddingto Arms regularly for many years and decided to visit earlier this afternoon.

I just don’t know where to start! The poorest customer service I think I have ever experienced!!

Hubby and I stayed two nights at this very popular village pub. We received a warm welcome from Georgie on reception. Staff were very helpful and attentive,

We had a super stay at the deddington arms. We stayed in order to visit Blenheim Palace which is a short distance away and were really pleased with the place. The room was extremely comfortable and the food and service was first class

Stopped here for lunch on a cross-country drive. Lovely old pub. Good lunch options, we had sandwiches which were well filled and accompanied with crisps. Nice clean facilities.

Rather liked our quirky little accommodation located away from the main hotel at the back of the property. The buildings around the courtyard/parking area are clearly old cottages as evidenced by the original front door still there (firmly closed and secured). The room was spacious and we quite enjoyed spending some of the evening sat in our wing armchairs by the fireplace (very atmospheric). Lovely bathroom with a claw feet bath and old fashioned wooden tiled vanity unit around the sink. Lots of fluffy clean white towels and a comfy bed. The hotel restaurant provided good food in a relaxed atmosphere.

Lovely pub. Chatty barmaid. Sat outside in the pretty town but got too hot so had to come and sit inside on the comfy sofa. 🙂

Went here with some friends I had a chicken terrine which was extremely oily and came with I can only describe as like 3 crisps ! At £8 a time it wasn’t very nice.

My husband and I had the specials starter which we delicious. We both opted for mains off of the menu which we good but not as good as starter. However puddings where uninspiring and we ended up having ice cream. I felt it was good value for money and you got what you paid for. Staff were efficient.

a nice setting that serves a good range of excellent food and wine at affordable prices nice place to dine with friends

Visited to meet up with old friends. We had great room lovely and clean. Bar/restaurant was fabulous. Nothing too much trouble for staff. We got great price and 25.00 off per person

Well looked after by all the staff but a special mention for the receptionists. We had a deal which included 2 nights B and B, an evening meal allowance and tickets for a local attraction, all arranged with the hotel, good value. Meals cooked were of a high standard with a decent choice. Our room was very comfortable with space for storage. We have already booked to return.

The receptionist was friendly and efficient. Our room in the annex was very comfortable. It was also very clean which was kept up throughout our stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked and well presented and tasty. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. We would like to especially thank Elizabeth, who served us each morning, for her excellent and friendly service. Thank you Elizabeth. The restaurant had a varied menu but as we were exploring the area we only used it once. The meal we did have was tasty, well cooked and well presented. it is a very quiet location and we enjoyed walking around the village. All in all, a very enjoyable and comfortable stay.

The meals are a tad pricey but we had an allowance included in the deal for staying at the hotel for 2 nights so we had a combination of the lamb shoulder,the cheese tart,the chicken supreme and the beef burger. followed by the pecan pie and amerento pot.

Stayed and dined at the hotel as part of a Travelzoo package. Had dinner on the first night. Was impressed by the quality of what came out of the kitchen: quality ingredients, professionally presented. The food isn't cheap, but it is certainly good value for money. The waiting staff were uniformly pleasant and attentive.

Stayed for 2 nights last month. Accomodation was good if a little bit tired. The welcome in the restaurant was good, and the food was even better. The staff were well trained, and when a table was vacated the next member of the team cleared it regardless of their position. The bar was well stocked and equally friendly.Would highly recommend for a short break near Oxford

Three of us met for lunch here on a Sunday. There's no carvery, but they have a good a la carte menu.The dining room has had a refurb since my last visit. Good comfy chairs and well spaced out tables. Service was good and we all enjoyed our meals. My wife's GF requirements were handled well. Easy parking at the rear.

Stayed in this hotel as part of a food and local attraction offer.

Very nice restaurant, furnishings are well thought out and comfortable , tables are well spaced apart from other diners. service is of a high standard and the meals are very good. In all a pleasant atmosphere and a expierence was had by us.

The booking was easy, the staff were friendly, the pace of ordering and food delivery was just right and the price isn't too bad either. A great meal with friends.

As we were all in town together we decided to have a team dinner.

We have today had lunch with friends at the Deddington Arms. The four of us ordered fish and chips, which was crispy and delicious. However, all four portions were heavily scattered with seasalt flakes. Please - not everyone likes salt (my partner particularly dislikes it) and some people are supposed not to have it because of health conditions (one of us has high blood pressure). Two of us were trying to scrape it off. So please, allow people to add their own, if they want it. Other than that, the surroundings were very nice, and the waitress was delightful, so we shall come again.

The restaurant has a lovely feel to it with very nice decor and a welcoming fire in the bar area. The hake was beautifully cooked and the mackerel was also excellent. A nice relaxed atmosphere and not rushed. The only negative for me was the coffee which was extremely bitter. For the quality of food, very good value. We would definitely return.
