Food excellent, as was the service. Very good value for the quality of the food and wine. Came with my 80 year old mother who found the acoustics a bit tricky, not least as a very loud party at one of the tables. I thought it was fine! The waiter was friendly, helpful and attentive. Will definitely lunch there again.

This is a lovely venue - I come here once a year. The menu is good, not too long but with options for all. Very fresh, great salads (always a good measure of a place!), super for light eats as well as bigger dishes. We had halloumi fries (delicious), crabcakes with courgette fries (also very nice), a baked camembert (very well presented and lovely too) then a combo of Jude ice creams and sticky toffee pudding - both great. Both members of the Front of House team were mega friendly and helpful - both lovely people.

The staff were very pleasant and were obviously working hard. The octopus starter was fine but the ‘special’ Cornish rack of lamb was disappointing considering the price(£30)and the vegetables were lukewarm. Having waited far too long for our main course I reluctantly ate it anyway as my stomach thought my throat had been cut by this stage! Not sure that I’d choose to eat here again despite having been happy with the food in the past.

Great pub/restaurant next to the Church Green in Witney. It's a really nice setting, especially in fine weather. Service was excellent & the food commendable. The belly pork was so tender, the tempura prawns perfectly crispy. I had no complaints about anything at The Fleece which was provided for a very enjoyable meal and experience.

Really lovely experience and fab food. Friendly, polite and attentive staff who made a big fuss our dog which she loved! Delicious vegetarian food, slight mix up with one deli plate but quickly and apologetically rectified, with no detrimental affect to the dining experience. One of the best meals we have had in ages. Thoroughly recommend the tempura courgettes with parmesan and truffle dip...

I was looking for a venue to celebrate my Birthday outside of Oxford. I am very fond of Witney & particularly love the area around Church Green. So The Fleece appeared to be the perfect venue . I wasn’t disappointed. We were fortunate in so much as it was a glorious sunny day & we were able to have pre lunch drinks outside overlooking the green. There were six of us and we were impressed by the friendliness of all the staff in a very relaxed atmosphere . We all chose Roast beef & weren’t disappointed , I am famous for my roast dinners & this certainly was as good . There was a nice gesture when the waiter came round with extra roast potatoes & Yorkshire puddings. I can highly recommend The Fleece as a relaxing , friendly place to visit. Living in Oxford it was refreshing to visit a place that isn’t hostile to cars. There is even free parking!!!

Came here yesterday with friends for lunch. I've eaten here before. Staff very pleasant, polite and attentive. I ordered chicken schnitzel which was very good.. The soft green salad was unfortunately way too oily and you need to be a bit more generous with your fries. My husband and our friend had the steak pie which they said was very good but again, hardly any fries, not enough mash, or vegetables. These are grown hungry men not 12 year olds you're feeding. Our friends son had a burger which looked really underwhelming. My husband left feeling still hungry, we didn't have dessert because we had one waiting at home. The atmosphere is very pleasant , the staff are lovely, but please, you need to up your portion sizes. Potatoes don't cost much ! In the four or five times I've eaten here I've found it to be slightly hit and miss. It's not exactly cheap either which is fine, but I was a bit embarrassed my friends were still hungry afterwards. All in all, 6/10.

Took the day off and my wife and I booked lunch at The Fleece. Always had good service and high quality food at this restaurant, but sadly not this Friday lunchtime. Long delay in receiving our pre-starters, then one of our starters was forgotten and the other, a chicken and ham terrine, was delivered but too infused with lemon oil to taste the chicken and ham and was therefore sent back and taken off the bill. On a positive the mains which were Beef and Ale pies were very good. Did not enjoy our lunch experience on this occasion. Need to up their game as loyal customers will be lost!

I enjoyed my meal with my friend. The risotto was a little bit stodgier that I would normally like but it was still enjoyable. My mini dessert with coffee was the highlight however. I probably wouldn’t visit on a Friday during school holidays because the restaurant was very busy and loud. My friend is elderly and wears an hearing aid and the background noise interfered with her comfort. But she said she has visited on a day when it wasn’t so busy so I would probably choose the day more wisely in future. But overall a good experience.

Disappointing food from the specials board. 2 of us had a goats cheese orzo dish which we both thought was flavourless apart from an overdose of black pepper. Undetectable goats cheese, lots of stringy mozzarella. Nice friendly service but cutlery was smeared with finger marks. Not up to its usual standard.

What was supposed to be a fantastic family lunch was completely left wanting due to the terrible service. Starters arrived and were well received. A slight mix up with one but this was resolved quickly. The main course arrived and everything went quickly south wards. Cold food. 25 minutes between first main being delivered to the last. Cauliflower cheese sides came out too early or too late. Loads of errors despite a 5 day pre order. Very poor.

Needless to say we won't be coming back. Shame as we liked it but can't have that again.

Came for lunch with new work colleagues. Waited around 45 minutes to be served, first 3 people served, then a few minute wait for the next two, then around a 5 minute wait for me (didn’t appear overly busy!). My salt beef brioche was appalling - a basic brioche burger bun containing 2 tiny slices of salt beef and one large piece of fat (you can’t put that on a bun by accident)…..oh yeah, and a lovely star anise too! All of this accompanied by some barely luke warm oven-like steak-cut chips! I know I should’ve complained but I was with work colleagues during my first week and didn’t want to be ‘that guy’ but I certainly wouldn’t come again and wouldn’t recommend!

We stayed in a front facing room. It was a little noisy with people chatting outside The Fleece, but it was quiet from 11pm and we enjoyed a good night's sleep in the comfortable room. The restaurant was busy at Sunday breakfast but the service was efficient and cheerful. There is a good choice on the breakfast menu and we enjoyed smashed avocado on toast with kombucha and coffee. A nice building in a great setting and well recommended.

Very good service, good mains and puddings. My issue is the crab starter @£12.50. Living on theYorkshire coast at this price you would receive a crab shell full of meat with a side. Here at best it was three teaspoons of mainly mayo with what I assume was crab meat, 4 apple matchsticks, 4 slithers of salmon and a sprinkling of cucumber cubes. Brought the issue to staff and was assured that my main course would be more substantial(meat pie), not the reply i was expecting. Sent an email to Peach Pubs on how did we do site but had no response. Just took the edge off a reasonable meal, albeit chain food. Try Three Horseshoes in Witney as alternative

Service was really good, food took a little longer (20 mins) because one was fish - we were told. Attention was really good, we were never left waiting. The quality of the food was very good and a good selection. I have to say Darcy deserves special mention, - it's the small things that make a difference. Couldn't give a specific dish - they were all good.!

I met friends at lunchtime, We all ordered different things, my friend had chicken Schnitzel , which was large and accompanied with fries and rocket, Parmesan and garlic parsley butter., I had the vegetarian celeriac and sweet potato pie, on spinach and beetroot. This was very tasty, quite petite but it was swimming in beetroot and it would have been lovely to have had some seasonal roast potatoes, it is from the ‘Christmas dinner menu, in lieu of having a special vegetarian dish on the blackboard. It was lovely But at nearly £16 I feel this is a bit steep It is vegetables!! Very nicely prepared but I would have expected £10-£12 pounds maximum, I’m not really complaining, it just feels too much. Especially since Braised Beef Pie snd Fish and chips are £16

Having read previous reviews I was looking forward to a family lunch here as The Christmas lunch was offered as a feature. The turkey turned out to be a rolled joint, not slces of meat from an actual bird, overcooked and extremely dry. Could not eat it as it stuck in my throat. The Yorkshire puddings were good though although the roast potatoes were black. Not up to standard at all. The staff however were friendly and helpful. Won't be planning a return visit even though it is situated on the charming and picturesque Church Green.

The Fleece is located in a beautiful quiet area and has a lovely ambiance. Great for business meetings, romantic lunches, fun lunches and for young parents too. Lots of rooms round the tables and plenty of room on them as well. The staff were really friendly and attentive and were happy to help with my request for extra gravy which was very much appreciated. We both enjoyed our starters very much - the crab & salmon salad was by all accounts delicious (no brown meat which is a big plus) and my duck "scrumpet" was very nice. It consisted of breast meat rolled into a sausage shape and then breaded and deep fried. Jolly nice if a bit bijou. Main courses - the shrimp burger looked very nice and freshly made. As they only had one available, I went for a beef and ale pie. It was very good & served with a dollop of mash. Probably better on a cold day rather than a very hot one! I had a "smidge of very nice chocolate brownie" plus ice cream with my pot of tea which served me very well. The "smidge of goats cheese" was quite enough for my lunching companion with her pot of tea. Overall - a very pleasant (if a bit warm but that was the weather at the time) visit, will be back in a year's time!
