Django's Smokehouse in South Oxfordshire

Great food for our team dinner 😁🍽️ Vicky was a great hostess

Food was excellent. Thank you Vicky and Ryan for a such a friendly service too

Lovely food, great service by Vicky. Really recommend for evening out.

Incredible food. Great music. Great place. Our server Ryan was amazing and incredibly helpful. Made a great meal out for my birthday. Thank you Ryan.

Great service, fast. Vicky and Ryan were great.

Vicky and Ryan was very polite and quick with our orders. Was a good laugh

They put a tip into the bill automatically, it’s very cheeky, we were going to tip but that made us not want to cause it’s assuming,at the end of the day this is England you get a wage. Also had a comment from one of the staff telling me what to do with my food, kind of felt unnecessary.

Actual, proper smoked meats. The real deal, I've had such awful experiences chasing the flavour of proper American BBQ and this is the closest I've ever come in the UK. Superb.

A big thank you to our waitress Kateryna. It was an incredible evening!

Great food, great service in a nice venue.

The food was great, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was perfect to make our little family date night perfect! We will 100% be returning and would reccomend to all oir friends and family.

Really love the food. Ryan customer service was A+. Excellent service

Beautiful food. Me and my partner shared 3 small plates and then had a burger as well. Everything was delicious and well cooked and flavoured. Burnt ends were incredible!!!!! Service was also 10/10, Ryan was attentive throughout, couldn’t fault him.

Very tasty foods with excellent service. Many thanks for all the staff with their high standard of service.

Extremely friendly and accommodating staff.

Nice food and reasonable priced

Thanks to chef James, Danny and Adem . Food was amazing !

We hired out the upstairs for a private function and the staff were brilliant, they were extremely accommodating. From the emails to the bar staff, brilliant service, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much, we will definitely be back and using their services again.

Lovely servers Ryan and Vicky were very helpful and courteous, and the food was great

Ryan the bar manager made my birthday!!! He is the best and would definitely come back! Thank you Ryan!! Great bottomless brunch - highly recommend!

Vicky has amazing customer service

We had a great evening at Djangoes. Our servers Ryan and Vicky were fantastic, we ordered the all you can eat wings and they made sure we had wings either in front of us or on the way. They also made sure our Django Mango’s were topped up too. Thank you.

Staff lovely and looked after us wven when i asked for the air con fan to be turned dows as Sat right under and was rather breezy. Food good as always

Another amazing meal at Django's. Our server Ryan was amazing, polite and happy to go above and beyond to accommodate our requests.

Yummy food and great customer service. Served by Ryan.

Ryan and Ben were great and warm hosts. The portions are good value for money.

Django's is new in town and quite a different atmosphere, which is nice. The atmosphere is comfortable, music adds well and fun. I do like the bar, it's quite pleasant to sit there. The wine list and drinks is different to other restaurants in town. I tried the Temperanillo, Suavignon blanc and Spanish Blanco. The food menu is a typical smoke house but does have some lighter snack style Leo, is an amazing cocktail Mixologist. Every drink is presented like a picture. The best Margarita I have tasted. But, her own creation is the Fusion Confusion, try it. George is the latest mixologist, his jalapeno margarita is an incredibly amazing taste. I go here often to chill and relax. The staff are really great and like a laugh, which is good as so do I. April 25. I enjoyed an Unlimited Brunch which is a feature event. The atmosphere is fun and chilled with music of the event, so lovely.

Food was absolutely outstanding! Friday chef James cooked food just like it should be . Chicken moist and flavoured! Do not change chef! Katrina is really sweet!

Good food, good service, Ryan gave us a warm welcome and sound menu advice

Came in for bottomless Wings night! Vicky was great! We will definitely be back

Had an amazing very attentive server (Vicky). Had the wing Wednesday deal which was lovely, as stated previously, Vicky was very attentive and came by to ask for our next sauce selection when we were on our last wing. Food was amazing, the base wings were crispy and well seasoned. The sauces you choose were also lovely, me and my partner would prefer if the wings were tossed in the Buffalo sauce and then we got the sauces to dip on the side but was still good either way. We also had the smokehouse platter, everything was amazing. As we like sauce with our food we wish we got a little more or perhaps a sauce caddy on the table with a selection of sauces but besides that the food was 10/10. Great food, great atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff.

Went for bottomless brunch with a couple friends, great food, nice drinks and attentive staff! Would definitely recommend and will be back again

Vicky and Ryan were amazing , nothing was to Much trouble , always checked on us and Filled up glasses amazing service

Absolutely delicious! This was my first time at Django's and I will definitely be back. Cocktails (at Happy Hour prices too - bonus!) were so tasty, and expertly prepared by a super friendly Ryan. And Vicky, our waitress, was very polite, and knowledgeable regarding our queries on the menu. The food was amazing - the meat was tender and flavourful, the fries were crispy but not tough and seasoned well, and the mac and cheese was peppery and had the right balance of cheese sauce to pasta - it was just all so yum! Highly recommend.

Ryan provided a great service, was lovely, friendly and helpful

Thanks Danny for the lovely food. Place is fantastic, food is amazing and the service was excellent. Definitely recommend.

Food was absolutely amazing, and so was the atmosphere. Our server Ryan was extremely helpful and made sure we had everything we needed all throughout the night. Will be back soon!

Great food and exceptional service! Thanks to Ben for looking after us, we weren't the easiest guests 🤣

The same scam as Frankie & Benny’s Bad Quality at a high quality price. The service and the premises very nice.

Excellent service from Ryan. Absolute star, was very friendly and professional. Highly recommended.

Fantastic service, delicious food and nice atmosphere. Vicky, Danny and James were great 😃 highly recommended

I ordered a Smash Beef burger, and honnestly it's probably the worst burger I ever ate. The quality of beef was disgusting, there was a lot of nerve and the texture was not pleasant. For 16 Gpb I was expected a good quality of meat and not a frozen one. Never again for me.

DO NOT USE THIS RESTAURANT FOR YOUR UBER EATS DELIVERY. RYAN TOOK ABSOLUTELY NO ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE DRIVER EATING MY FOOD INSTEAD OF DELIVERING IT. NO REPLACEMENT OFFERED. VERY UNHELPFUL AND REFUSED TO CALL UBER EATS

I remember when Djangos opened a few years ago - BBQ is my bag, so I was quite excited. I've been several times since then, and am pleased to confirm that it lives up to my expectations. The food is great (can highly recommend the beef short rib) and so are the cocktails (which you can usually get as 2-for-1). Service has always been great as well. I've noticed that they've made a few tweaks since they opened, all of which have improved the menu/experience. If you haven't checked this place out yet, then you should!

Food was tasty and well presented and the service was excellent.

Fantastic food, delivered hot by a really amicable guy.

Fantastic food, the 14 hr cooked brisket was amazing. Great service. Will definitely be back.

Always a great meal here, been so many times, staff are very welcoming and efficient, would definately recommend.

Good food. A little on the pricey side, but it is worth it in taste.

I went to this restaurant/bar with my wife and 8 month old daughter and I was thoroughly impressed! The food was great, drinks were refreshing and fun, and the atmosphere was awesome! I wasn't expecting to find such a great BBQ place in didcot England but it's one of the best I've ever been to personally. Huge portions and incredible staff that made us feel immediately welcome. We even got some suggestions for traveling around the area and help navigating public transit! Overall just a great experience that I couldn't recommend more, our server Vicky and the bartender Ryan were so helpful and nice it felt like we had gone to a friend's house and not a restaurant

Update: They've changed the menu! The wings no longer come tossed in sauce, which is an absolute shame. Now, they're supplied as a dipping sauce, which means you get less sauce per wing. Our visit today was disappointing with core flavours of sauces also changed, the korean bbq is now more like a capital spare rib sauce, the spicy mayo isn't an ounce spicy, this coupled with poor portions of sauce which adds to quite a greasy experience. The wings cooking was more varied, from perfectly done to some pinker than ideal. From my previous post, I would have gone back, and I did (many times), but since the menu change, quality drop, and inconsistent cooking, I'm afraid I won't be rushing back anytime soon, as the appeal has gone. Old Review (5 star for reference): Unlimited wings on a Wednesday - yes please! Not only can I not recommend the Buffalo and the Korean BBQ wings if you're not afraid of some spice, its worth thanking Quinn who looked after the table, incredibly attentive and kept us well fed and watered. We'll definitely be coming back soon!

Always have a great time when visiting Djangos and the food always seems to be getting better. I encourage everyone and anyone to try the burnt ends!

Amazing food. Vicky was absolutely fantastic. We will be back

Really enjoyed our meal, staff were lovely and the food tasted amazing! It was my partners birthday and they very generously gave him a birthday brownie. Would definitely go back.

Amazing food, would recommend all day if you like smoked meat.

Imagine it’s your first day on planet Earth and you've never had a real burger. You go to McDonald's, maybe you think it tastes okay? Real BBQ is all about the low and slow. It takes time to smoke meat to perfection. This requires time for the smoke flavour to develop and the collagens to break down to give that juicy, melt-in-the-mouth texture and flavour that only good BBQ has. Unfortunately, this place does not offer this. It's fundamentally lacking in smoke, and the meat has been cooked fast & hot, so it's essentially roasted meat pretending to be BBQ then covered in sugar. Management, please take notice. Once you get the meats right, it's all about the sauce. Your sauce size and flavours are a joke. Also, FYI, Garlic aioli must actually contain garlic and taste of garlic. So, if you think McDonald's is the finest cuisine that mankind has to offer, then you're going to love this place. As a reply to the owner’s comments: Unless you fundamentally rethink the restaurant’s cooking style, then I will not be returning. Zero bark development on the meat, limited smoke penetration with limited smoke taste. Extremely poor range and tasting sauces. Next, fix the sides. BBQ is also massivly the sides. Southern Style coleslaw, pickles, mac and cheese, potato salad and beans, they all need to taste as good as the mains. Unfortunately, your side menu is mostly about deep-frying cheap ingredients to fill plates. One last point, pulled pork should be succulent, moist, and indulgent, it should make you smile and want to shake the chefs hand. So don't get pissy because someone with a half-decent pallet that knows BBQ points out how disappointing your restaurant actually is, so up your game and fix the problems.

Had a great time! Cocktails are delicious and Ryan, the bar manager, was attentive and really made our experience.

We had a nice evening at Smokehouse. The staff were fantastic, we had great service from Ryan and the blonde lady (I'm sorry I didn't get a name!) Who were very friendly and looked after us well.

Shocking how highly rated this is, I can only assume this is the first time anyone in didcot has been to a bbq restaurant. Bad food and bang average cocktails probably made from pre mix. We did wing Wednesday and they are flavourless frozen wings deep fried with almost no meat on so you just end up eating deep fried batter all night - I wouldn’t be surprised if I was eating pigeon wings. No cook should serve plain flavourless wings with a dipping sauce on the side. The whole menu is likely cooked from frozen. Save yourself the trip and go to burnout bbq in Oxford instead.

Great evening out with family, food was amazing. The flavours were strong , and tasty, but not over powering, meat was very tender, fell of bone, very happy, friendly staff. Good mix of cocktails and amazing food. Will definitely come back

Staff are amazing. Great service. So friendly. Food was amazing too.

delicious burger and loaded fries!

Really great service from Ryan! Great food! Great cocktails! Will be back for sure!

Atmosphere was quiet but peaceful. Only couple of issues was, it was awfully cold i ate my whole meal with my coat on and the price was a little expensive for what you got on your plate. But the food was delicious although the pork was a little spicy for my liking the burger was delicious though. Will return. Put the heating on 🥶

I had a fantastic experience at Django's! The food was absolutely delicious—perfectly smoked meats with deep, rich flavors and tender textures. Service was top-notch; the staff, especially Ryan, was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The only downside is that it’s a bit on the pricey side, but given the quality of the food and service, it’s well worth it. Definitely a must-visit for BBQ lovers!

Nice staff and great food. I've been to a few smokehouses that haven't managed to get the food as good as this.

Fantastic meal!! Great food, and service. Ryan was brilliant - thank you! :)

Great service from Kateryna and the rest of the team, had a good night!

Excellent burgers and loaded fries - would definitely recommend.

Excellent evening for my son’s 18th. The food, the wait staff, the attention to our table, our order checked as it arrived (it was a large order), all perfect! Would highly recommend and we will most definitely be returning. Thank you for completely embarrassing my son with a surprise candle in a dessert and getting the entire restaurant to sing happy birthday to him. 😊 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all day long!!

Amazing food, definitely coming back!

Ryan and Danny were a pleasure as always, bottomless wings are definitely recommended!

Excellent food and service. Our bartender Ryan was the best

Had an excellent dinner here, really recommend! Ryan was a particular hightlight

Had a lovely time. Excellent service and cocktails. Thanks to Ryan and Quinn from Djangos!

My review dates 2025 Alas, my review needs changing. It was my last time going to Django's and I'm a bitter about writing this... They have changed the way wings are made and in all honesty, it just feels lazy. For example, the wings starter was the Korean BBQ Sauce, they used to be marinated in the sauce with sesame seeds and spring onion. Now they serve the chicken wings plain (overcooked) with a little pot of sauce for you to dip in.... No seeds, no spring onion, just plain wings. I loved those wings and honestly its lazy but is what it is. It was a good ride, after a few years going there, I must say goodbye forever. My review dates 2024 Will never stop going here, I live in reading which is a bit of a journey but don't not care. Food awesome, prices are well worth the amount and quality of food, staff are lovely and atmosphere great, will 100% recommend this to anyone, They also listen to feedback from customers. A while back they very few cocktails on the menu, they asked for feedback from customers and after reading reviews, they have a whole list! Super rare for a restaurant to listen to it's customers, I love it

I had a lovely first visit to Django’s. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

Quinn & Ryan gave us a fabulous service today, the food was delish and the cocktails were yummy.. such a great atmosphere in the restaurant we really enjoyed the playlist.. thanks so much we will be back soon xx

not only was the food was amazing but Ryan and Quinn gave amazing service and the best music which created a great atmosphere!

This was our first visit and we were very impressed with the service, quality of food and value for money. Cody was very attentive and friendly. Would highly recommend 😊

Restaurant with two seating areas on ground and first floor, both with a bar area. Kitchen is at the back on the ground floor with service window looking into the main restaurant area. Toilets situated upstairs. Service was quick, food also came quickly. Burnt ends are a must to order, absolutely delicious. Main was 2 seasoned chicken legs on the bone (would have liked this specified that it would be served on the bone). One was perfectly cooked and the other very dry so quality was unfortunately variable. Loaded fries tasty but not enough of them compared to the meat on offer, portion was far too small. Food was very enjoyable despite those smaller niggles. Cocktails without alcohol are always unfairly expensive but the cocktails with alcohol were well delivered and a good range of drinks on offer. Regular deals throughout the week, lots of offers to take advantage of and worth researching before you go. Overall a good night out and I'd go back again!

Good food. Arrived in good time. Great service. Thank you Ryan.

Great food, great place. Thank you to Ryan for excellent service!

A little hidden gem! Food was amazing, service fantastic and great price! Danny cooked the most delicious roast, and Ryan was fab, thank you so much. Would definitely recommend.

A young lady i heard be called Quinn served me and my friends. She was so lovely, funny and on top of all orders and drinks! I was never without a drink at the bottomless brunch. The food was so good! Burnt ends (amazing) burgers (cool me down).

We visited djangos on valentines night and it was amazing, the food its self is probably up with the best meat I’ve ever had! The service was great and no complaints, if I had one negative it would be that the upstairs is abit tight in terms of tables but apart from that we will definitely be going back!

Food and cocktails were amazing

over all food was great my only thing that would have made it even better was some kind of sauce to go with the short rib meal maybe some kind of gravey as an option but was still great

Had a wonderful family time, hoping to come soon

Have eaten here before and know they do amazing roast dinners! Have come out for Valentines Day impromptu and are not disappointed at all. We went for the normal menu and cocktails. The food is REALLY good, the service is EXCELLENT, the atmosphere is warm, friendly, inviting, good music, honestly, This place is so good!

Nice place, nice staff, and nice food!

We had a lovely meal here for my daughter’s birthday. The food looked and tasted brilliant and the kids menu went down very well for our younger family members. Staff were accurate and helpful. Will definitely come again.

Amazing food, fantastic service. The waiting staff were quick and looked after our group amazingly. Special shout out to Caoimhe who went above and beyond for us.

I visited django with three colleagues for dinner, and it was a great experience. I had pork ribs and it tasted awesome. The staff was very friendly for foreigners and gave us some recommendations.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch. Food was fantastic. Ryan gave great service and the cocktails were delicious. Will definitely be coming back.

Food was amazing and the atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. Quinn and Ryan were very helpful with recommendations and quick with services. Food was top tier will be returning

Thank you for being so kind to the store staff. Pork dishes are delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Had a lovely smoke house burger. My servers were Quinn and Ryan and they were very welcoming i wol lcome again.

Good allergy options, meat cooked incredibly well, and child friendly!

More people need to know about this place! (Or maybe not 🤫) Kateryana and Ryan were great, very well looked after. Cheese sauce on fries is highlight
