Oaks Restaurant in Vale of White Horse

Very very cute little tea room, really enjoyed our visit for tea and scones. Such an authentic British experience. Tried to go back when we were in bibury the other day but found that it had closed permanently? Such a shame, I hope all that ran the place are doing well and it opens back up one day!

Had a lovely comfortable overnight stay at the Ferryman and a fabulous evening meal in the restaurant with friends. I would recommend this as a must stopover for Thames Walker between The Trout at Tadpole Bridge & Oxford. The staff/owners were so kind and attentive and made these sections of our walk very special.

Food took a long time to come, had to ask. When it arrived majority of plates were wrong. Had to return two plates and one had to be returned 3 times. Service was awful! Food was tasteless! Yorkshire Pudding looked more like a pancake! Will not be returning. Whole place looks rundown. Tables and bar sticky, carpet looks faded and worn.

Been here many times - great staff and food very good - gets very busy so best to book if you want a specific table - some of the lighter bites excellent at lunchtime- good wine selection

Had a Sunday lunch for 2, my wife had previously been and rated this village pub part of the Greene King group. In a way the pub is traditional with a bar, restaurant layout but with a COVID canopy with booth style tables. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The draught beer on offer was a Greene King summer brew and a guest ale from Hardy & Hansons, Old Trip. Very reasonably priced at £4.80. We both had a roast, I had beef and my wife pork. My beef was plentiful but a little chewy but wife’s pork was good. The roast potatoes were very good and the vegetables were plentiful if a little soggy. There was a good sweet selection I had the apple pie with custard which was alright. I don’t know why there haven’t been any recent reviews but based on this visit I won’t be rushing back, sorry.
