Superb - the cakes are expensive but the standard is on a par with the best in Paris. You will find most of the usual Parisian patisserie favourites and a full range of croissants and breads. Personally I'd prefer if they also did the lemon tart but without the meringue on top, but everyone has their favourites.

Poor service, too busy to be bothered with a glass of water and when it was begrudgingly provided after my wife had to go and get it we got odd glasses and soap scum in one of the warm drinks.

For my daughters 40th birthday party I ordered three cakes from Gatineau in Summertown… Chocolate Framboise, Larieux, and Tarte aux Fraises. They were delivered the following morning well in time for the party, and looked absolutely amazing! “But how did they taste?”, I hear you ask! Well, I have never seen cakes disappear so quickly, with plates and forks licked clean! They were superbly delicious! Well done Gatineau, and thanks from a very pleased dad. Xx

Best pastries in North Oxford. Ordered a savoury and sweet pastry - faultless. Coffee wasn't great though and hopefully that will improve (server argued with me about that they thought a flat -white coffee was and how everyone else in Oxford was doing it wrong).

I went twice for coffee and cakes. The French breads and cakes and chocolates looked amazing but the coffee was not up to the same standard. I had an abricotine(?) which was fabulous - very crunchy pastry with soft gooey apricots inside. The other cake was disappointing - I think it was a rum baba but it did not taste remotely alcoholic and was very small and bland. The coffee was in a very small cup and was pretty tasteless. It was made by a young man who was having trouble working the machine - maybe he was new. They said they were a bakery not a coffee shop and it showed - but perhaps they should look into improving the coffee side of their offering to match the great bakery selection.

We had our fourth visit to Gatineau this morning, & wished we had heard of this place sooner. The staff are super warm and friendly, and have made us feel so welcome every time we come. We have sampled many of the Viennoiserie (croissants, pain au chocolat & raspberry creation) for breakfast and they were gold standard. The patisserie were so beautiful to look at, and even more beautiful to eat. You can taste the quality of the ingredients that they are made with, we can’t wait to try even more. The sandwiches were delicious, thick crunchy bread, enveloping salty salami and sour cornichons, transporting me back to France. They have little bags of treats like madeleines, langue du chats, and florentines that our friends have been very grateful to receive. We couldn’t recommend this place enough! Although this place is 50 mins drive from our house, we keep finding excuses to return! Don’t leave it as long as we did to visit! Tres Bien!

Tuve el Biskelia, el Cheesecake de grosella negra y la Tarte au Citron. ¡Me apresuro a agregar que los compartí con alguien más! La Biskelia estaba deliciosa, pero podría haberlo hecho con un poco más de sal. Me encantó el Cheesecake de grosella negra, aunque personalmente me hubiera gustado un poco más de acidez. La señora a quien compré los pasteles no me entendió cuando le pregunté si la Tarte au Citron era esencialmente un pastel de merengue de limón, parecía pensar que no lo era; Le pregunté si era merengue en la parte superior y ella dijo que no lo era, pero que era una crema. Así que cuando lo mordí y encontré que era un merengue suave, supongo que me decepcionó un poco que fuera más familiar de lo que esperaba, aunque ciertamente no me decepcionó la calidad, que fue excelente.

I love the pastries and baguettes at Gatineau, their pain au chocolate is divine and their baguettes are by far the best in Oxford, but why oh why can't I ever get a decent coffee here? I've had coffee made by four or five different members of staff over the last year and not one can make a flat white that doesn't taste watery, bitter or, on being asked for a stronger/less milky coffee, one so excessively strong that it's undrinkable. Gatineau now uses coffee beans from Missing Bean and so I thought 'perfect, my favourite coffee combined with my favourite patisserie' but they don't know how to make it. Please employ an experienced barista, buy some modern coffee cups and customers will appreciate a 10/10 experience on both fronts.

Oxford is lucky to have chef-owner Herve Gatineau and his patisserie in the Summertown suburb, just north of Oxford Center. I love his individual vegetarian quiches: zuccini & goat cheese, spinach walnut & stilton, cherry tomato & cheddar. Superb quality. Take away 2 quiches from Gatineau, a bag of organic baby leaf rocket salad from M&S; across Banbury Rd, with Waitrose spiced & herby yogurt & green harissa dressing, and you have a great meal. Reserve your quiches if afternoon visit. Closed on Mondays. Gatineau is a wonderful half-hour walk from Oxford Center along the Oxford Canal which is peaceful and green, exit the canal at Elizabeth Jennings Way bridge which is labeled, and follow it east to Banbury Road. Enjoy. I love Oxford.

Nice food which is why I return but virtually every time I have I wonder why I do because the staff are not welcoming bordering on rude!I keep thinking maybe its a one off but seems to be the same 90% of the times that I've been in there. Seems to me that staff need to work on their customer service skills on all customers not just regulars.

This is a patisserie in the French tradition. There is a sidewalk cafe outside too, though I have not used this. The artisan bread is what I go there for mainly, particularly their campaillou countryside bread, made with a mixture of white and wholemeal flour. It is airy and tasty, with a good crust, an excellent complement to a sharp cheddar. Well worth cycling quite a few miles for, even in the rain.

Very nice cakes and fair enough bread (but a limited range) and all quite expensive - worst thing is the ridiculous set-up where you queue behind people wanting the full café service while all you want is a loaf. It seems generally on a Saturday morning to be full of bien pensant punters who imagine they are doing something rather St-Germain-de-Pres when in fact it's just a Summertown shop. They work hard but need to think about segregating different kinds of customers and having more than one till.

I had several items here and it's one of the best sweet spots I've ever visited. The cheesecake was the best I've ever had. Ever. Other pastries were great and the chocolate - superb. The staff is friendly and willing to help you pick out something when you have a tough time with all the great choices. I wish I could have brought some of them home with me but they never made it to the airport! :)

never imagined i would find another great patisserie place after my favourite one Sweet Spot in Sydney.this is a remarkable place where the artisan Herve works with love and dedication and turns out each piece more delicious than the other.it was a pleasure to meet another humble person.

I have been on a few occasions - either to pick up pastries to take home - or to sit on the chairs outside for a la carte coffees! The pastries are top notch!

There is nothing I wouldn't recommend about this place, some absolutely delicious treats here. The staff are always very helpful when I can't decide what to pick!

Amazing pastries, baguettes, macarons and Other goodies. There is often a queues for the *to die for* sourdough loaf (Campaillou) at the weekends.

I am a pain au chocolat addict and this is the only place I will buy them. Everything here is excellent and delicious. I've been getting my fix here for years and continue to make a detour to this side of town. Once you've eaten here you realise that all the other pastries sold in coffee shops don't taste anything like they're supposed to!

We went here for my birthday dinner and the food was really delicious. The servers were very helpful and friendly. I ordered the pumpkin gnocchi and loved it (I wish I had taken a picture!). A bit expensive but a cute, warm spot for a celebratory dinner. I would go again for a special occasion. I do think you need a reservation.

Early Sunday evening meal. Busy restaurant but not full. Took an hour for the main to arrive - others also complaining. Cabbage on Belly Pork was grey and tasteless. Pork tasteless and dry Scallops small and tasteless. Tender stem broccoli under cooked and too difficult to cut with a knife. Very poor show Tip included on the bill automatically which my wife paid against my judgement. Don’t believe in paying for poor service / poor product.

I try to go to Pierre Victoire whenever I'm in Oxford, it doesn't change - in the best possible way. It's a bit like coming home, if one parent was a french chef and the other was a sommelier. Its been a few years since I was last able to get here but it did not disappoint. Had cheese souffle and Moules-frites and both excellent. Attentive service.
