Oxford Road Cafe in Trafford

Absolutely a good place for sandwich in Oxford. They offer such a charming and generous baguette experience. I recommend the chicken Tarragon. This place I will definitely come again to taste other flavors and combinations.😁

Best sandwich place in the county amazing prices and great service

As all other cafes were understandably packed we decided to give OFC a go (rather reluctantly as the last meal I had here a few years ago wasn’t great). It filled a hole, but I would say the quality of the ingredients were not good considering the prices. Eggs were over cooked with no runny yolk (meant to be fried), therefore were pale and a bit sad looking. I assume they were just sat under the hot light for ages. All the hash browns came out different colours due to cooking time and the “toast” was bread, completely anaemic with no colour at all, I doubt it had even seen the grill/toaster. Although it didn’t taste awful, it was incredibly underwhelming especially when prices are taken into account. Shame as I was hoping that this time it would have been different. Certainly won’t be in a rush to return. Service was good, and the staff were attentive and happy which is great to see. Maybe the cafe is taking on too many tables for quick turnaround? Seems to be the case as the quality of the food has definitely suffered.

I’m happy to wait for good food, but the poached eggs with my guilt free bacon and eggs were overcooked. For a restaurant serving brunch surely well cooked poached eggs should be a basic requirement. Service was mixed, friendly welcome, long wait for food and then one of the waitresses was more interested in chatting to her friends (who were eating at another table) than attending to other customers. Hopefully this was just a bad day.

I’m just visiting Oxford and I got a delicious loaded baguette for only 3.50! I highly recommended this spot

I took a trip into Oxford with my partner for valentines today and we decided on finding a sandwich shop vs a fast food franchise. I found this company through Google maps and I’m glad we found this gem in the covered market because it was just what we wanted! We were warmly welcomed and the lady was extremely chatty and friendly, just what you want. The food was really good and very fairly priced. We’ve found a gem in the covered market and will be coming back in the future! Make sure to get there early as she had only 1 baguette left but that was no bother as I enjoy a panini!

Great choice of food. Nice atmosphere, busy (which is always a good sign) staff really attentive and knowledgeable about the different foods on offer. Would definetly recommend Oxford Road Cafe

I have eaten at The Oxford Road Cafe so many times, always excellent food & fantastic friendly staff. My favourite cafe!

Simple, old school place, delicious and generous fillings, great price. Friendly.

Delicious breakfast! Great staff and location! Would definitely go again! We had the veg breakfast and the Anna’s breakfast. Both perfectly crafted.

Fantastic little cafe, friendly service and great food, what more could you ask for? We had brunch, a mix of beef brisket, crispy potatoes and a poached egg, panini and a bacon and avocado sandwich. Will definitely be back again!

Amazing value and service. Always very friendly and the food is great.

As always, brilliant service, smile, and welcoming. By far the best sandwich shop in Oxford City Centre. My go to is a Tuna & Cheese baguette and it's always fantastic. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Best sandwich shop in Oxford. And lovely owners

I don't know what her problem is but the white lady at the counter gave me a frosty stare and then quoted me the wrong price for a Tuna baguette. She was very chatty/ warm before I ordered. Racism? I won't be coming back.

As others said, this is probably the best sandwich shop in terms of flavor and value for money. Highly recommend if you like high quality, tasty and cheap food. The owner was a very cheerful and helpful person as well.

Eggs benedict sent back as the white on the eggs wasn't cooked Came back white of Eggs cooked but yolk rock hard Inedible Service by kids and apart from the girl taking the order wasn't good

Best place in Oxford for a baguette, and I may stand by that comment even without factoring in the price.

Quick service and great baguette. Nice for a quick stop and the portion is quite generous for the cost.

Really good value for money for a freshly made baguette sandwich, especially at the moment.

I visited The Oxfordshire Cafe last Friday, I was served by Gina. Gina is brilliant and her knowledge of the menu is fantastic! I have allergies and intolerances, I have coeliac, I am vegan, I have an allergy to milk, nuts and an intolerance to tomatoes therefore I am not the easiest of customers. However this was no problem for my server or the head chef Adam, they both went above and beyond for me. Adam took tomatoes out of produce for me and they both checked the ingredients for me on all the sauces to make sure it was suitable for me to have and Adam actually made me a sauce from scratch that again was suitable for me ……....how amazing is that! All the food is made fresh and really is stunning! Thank you very much to all the staff at The Oxfordshire Cafe, especially to Gina and Adam. I had a lovely experience and the food there is delicious! I highly recommend a visit.

Breakfast/brunch was hot and delicious. All the food we got had very high quality ingredients and you could really taste the difference. Lovely little extras like pesto which you don’t find everywhere, 10/10

Been here lots of times best breakfast in Manchester the owner is very polite and so is the staff I could not recommend a better place to eat.... The best way to explain is breakfast made by a chef not by dave who's 69 still hungover

Really, really tasty comfort food at a very reasonable price. Super friendly staff and a very welcoming place to eat. Loved it!!!

Busy Saturday morning but staff were attentive and friendly. Evelyn really helpful in taking our orders and patient with me being fussy about my breakfast! Meals were perfect, service quick and coffee outstanding. Fantastic meal thank you all.

What a place! Unreal food, super friendly staff, plenty of options for all dietary requirements. Really fantastic place.

We came with family on the opening night, this diner is going to be a real asset for the town. I had the butter wings, Halloumi fries & tato pops oh & the beef doughnut all delicious xx 🤤🤤🤤🤤

Since moving to Altrincham 2 years ago, Oxford Road Cafe has been my go to for a breakfast. The menu is extensive with options for all allergies (my mum is celiac and they do a banging GF french toast) but my favourite is always the Brisket Hash. As anyone who has visited will know, the service is excellent and the staff are always so friendly, nothing is ever too much for them. Visited last weekend for the launch of the American diner and it did not disappoint! Went for the 'Go big or go home' because I'm a big eater and thought I could easily tackle it by myself. Brisket donut, Half rack of ribs, onion rings, chips, hot wings, coleslaw and I upgraded to add the burger aswell. It was absolutely amazing. I barely finished it all but the quality was on point and the food was fresh and you can tell the chef's had put alot of effort into everything. If you haven't visited yet, you're missing out. Plus it's dog friendly! Can't wait to go back and try more of the Diner menu

Me and my partner visit a lot for morning coffee and a bite to eat, but today, WOW… we arrived to be told just sit where you like, we then waiting a good 7/8 mins to be slapped the menus off the next table, we...

I have been coming here since day one. But in recent weeks it appears there are different staff at weekends. Not sure if Mr Hanson the owner does not work weekends but the kitchen has no clue on how to prep and cook basic staples....

Great place to have coffee and a catch up with friends. Atmosphere is lovely and the staff were fantastic. Particularly Emily who served us our meal and also took my take away order. Always smiling and professional a real asset to the Oxford Road team....

Visit was a busy Saturday morning. Staff welcoming and friendly. Ordered coffee and scrambled eggs which were fantastic. Staff attentive and helpful even as it was busy. Wonderful quality all round.

Food is tasty, I ordered a club sandwich which was over £10, and it arrived with the tiniest amount of meat on it, less than 1 rasher of bacon and the smallest piece of chicken. It was basically full of lettuce and mayo. Really disappointing,...

Just had a delicious meal at Oxford Road. The food is tasty and fresh. Staff very pleasant and fab atmosphere. Will be back.

Makes a change to find a fantastic place to eat, staff are so friendly and helpful. Best place in Cheshire

Had a lovely breakfast here with my husband the service was amazing everyone was so friendly and happy to serve and the food was amazing. Can't wait to go again.

Have had breakfast here before, pre covid. This year it was not as good as it was, probably due to cost of living. Smaller portions and on the edge of expensive for a cafe.

Found this cafe on Tripadvisor,used the place before we went to old Trafford for the cricket. On entering in is very clean and food is excellent to,when in the area again will certainly use again

Service & staff were excellent made me feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble on top of this the food was fabulous freshly and cooked just to my liking there coffee Has great depth of flavour all served to me on there garden terrace.

I'm reviewing Oxford Road Cafe as a veggie with a penchant for a good hygiene rating...Oxford Road Cafe has an FSA hygiene rating of 5 and a menu with a superb range of veggie (and vegan) friendly options. Today we both had the veggie breakfast...

Best value lunch in Oxford. Large baguette with generous fillings for £3.50.

Wonderful breakfast - happy to make changes. A huge range of options available; great quality! Happy, friendly service and nothing too much trouble.

Fantastic food, great value for money

Fantastic place for all your sandwich needs

Went there for a birthday treat lunch with my son. I had pancakes with bacon and maple syrup and he had steak and eggs. Both were delicious and we had a mojito mint tea and fruit smoothie as well, which were great. Service was good...

Best lunch stop in Oxford. The food is always fresh and it very tasty. I strongly recommend this place

Good sandwich. Has a very nice chat with the lady making it. Very friendly.

An absolute gem of a find. The baguettes are amazing. The bread tastes freshly baked and has always been warm. The ingredients are all fresh. For a morning treat, highly recommend the breakfast baguette. Word has quickly spread around my office, and now we all head there for a Friday treat. It is also great value for money and much cheaper than elsewhere in Oxford. The owner takes the time to chat with the customers but there is never a long wait. Excellent customer service. It is hidden at the back of the Covered market, and is worth searching for the next time you are there.

Rachel and family are extremely kind and attentive staff Their products are fresh and local The pricing is very competitive, great value for amazing fresh food You won’t find cheaper or fresher in town

my favourite sandwich shop in town. Great quality and always fantastic service.

Lovely little sandwich shop in the heart of the covered market. Keema toastie was amazing never had this anywhere else and will def have it again Staff were lovely and friendly so nice to have a baguette shop in town. 10/10

I've been eating here for around 7 months now.. 4-5 days a week! And the food is absolutely out of this world! 110% every time! And the service is phenomenal! Such a lovely family that own it and they look after so many! Amazing place would recommend to all!

When ever i’m working in Oxford, i always try to get to The Oxford Sandwich Company! Great staff serving great food at great prices! Be sure to check out the lunch time specials too!

Absolutely brilliant little place if your I the area a real rare find! I don't know any other place that has some of the items from there menu. A "keema tostie" or "dahl Wednesday" or example! tasty. Well priced and extremely well run by the owners great service and perfect atmosphere highly recommended

I was in Altrincham recently for my car service. I walked up to the Oxford Road Cafe for a lunch. I have been there before for a brunch but this time I ordered steak strips with a garlic based sauce and sweet potato fries. The place was very busy so I had a long wait (25 minutes) but when the food came it really was delicious. The service was very friendly and the cafe has a real bounce about it. Highly recommended!

This place never fails, food is spot on and consistent, service always good too! 10/10. Would choose here over anywhere else locally!

We called in to Oxford Road Cafe for breakfast on Saturday 23.10.2021 on the recommendation of one of our party who had visited previously and what a treat of a place this isThe young staff waiting tables are happy, smiley, courteous and very welcoming and after a very short wait our menus arrived, our drinks order was taken and served with our food order following shortly afterwards. We went for two fresh orange juices and a pot of tea for one and the mini breakfast (with our own slight twist on the items included which were very easily accomodated with no inconvenience), the pancakes with bacon and blueberries and the French Toast. It was difficult to pick from a very full menu with lots of very tasty sounding optionsThe food came piping hot and very fresh and tasty. If I had a criticism it was with the French Toast dish which was, literally, one piece of French Toast with a small pot of fruit coulis and a small pot of maple syrup which was all very tasty but seemed a small portion for the price so, perhaps, two slices of French Toast would have been better and/or some summer fruits. None of this detracts from the quality of the food, however, which was to a very high standardThis was a really pleasant way to spend a Saturday morning with family and friends and we all agreed that this was certainly a place that we would return to and would highly recommend. It's a really cool, trendy venue and, certainly, a very popular cafe and rightly so

Went for what was supposed to be a quick spot of lunch. Waited over 40 minutes with our waitress serving everyone else around us whilst we waited, only to find out she hadn't taken our order. We upped and left. Honestly wouldn't bother with this place again.

Consistently great service and the best breakfast in Manchester. Really appreciate the extra mile in service they provide- particularly today, when the cafe was full- thanks

Went to visit following a recommendation from a friend and wasn’t disappointed. The salad boxes are great value for the size of the portion. The service was great and will definitely be visiting again

Excellent brunch / lunch, myself and my son lovely last treat before school tomorrow. Amazing first visit ! We will be back with rest of the family. A credit to your kitchen staff excellent, hot tasty beautifully presented. Front of house lovely, polite and fab service. Thank you

The Oxford Road Café is a a really solid choice for breakfast/lunch in Altrincham. You can park in the nearby Sainsbury’s and walk there in 30 seconds - ideal. The menu is extensive and caters for absolutely everyone and the staff are attentive and knowledgeable. My only criticism is that it can get very noisy when full, so I always ask if we can sit in one of the upstairs booths.

We love Oxford Road Cafe. Great food and great service. We try other places in Altrincham but always end up coming back here. Keep it up!

Went here for lunch today. Their Welsh rarebit is the best. Mustard etc in the mix. Two poached eggs perfectly cooked on granary. DELISH. A large pot of tea. HEAVEN. Brilliant service. brilliant wonderful staff. All the terrible restaurants could learn from this eatery.

Popped in for lunch with my fussy 12 yr old. Had a wrap (bacon, brie and cranberry) which was great, and the BEST chips! Quick, no fuss, great food!

Best sandwich shop in Oxford. The roast chicken baguettes are becoming legendary

I visit here regularly with my son for breakfast, we both look forward to it and it was one of the things that we were looking forward to as reopening happens. It hasn’t disappointed. It’s great to see the same friendly staff serving the excellent food. The Covid restrictions are adhered to but not imposing. Well done Oxford Rd

Lovely baguette, good value for money, very friendly service

We have seriously missed this place! Gorgeous food, so fresh and tasty and just fantastic to be back. Still a great range on the menu, lovely staff and apart form the social distancing it was like covid had never happened. Top place and so consistently fabulous

The new Owners are lovely .. the sandwiches are well priced and packed with filling.. Hot food changes daily and sweet treats made daily .. Banana bread is the BEST.

Just had a takeaway. Chicken burger and burger with fries. So delicious. Arrived hot and all fresh. Thank you.

Family of 5 had a burger takeaway. Everybody said what great burgers and chips! Ordered online for collection which was straight forward and allowed to add or take away items with ease. Selected time to pick up and completed order. Within 2 minutes had a polite call asking if they could push back 15mins, I much prefer to be told than get there and have to wait. Collection was on time and as usual in these times COVID measures in place. Price was reasonable and the portions a good size for a hungry family.Highly recommended.

Excellent little baguette shop. Plenty of variety for all taste buds at a very reasonable price. Friendly staff. Will be visiting again.

Love ORC. Food is always tasty, fresh and beautifully presented. They do takeaway as well as eat in, and we regularly get lunch here. Plenty of options on the menu, friendly staff, excellent quality food, good value for money, highly recommended.

I am so happy this place exists- the staff are excellent - my dog is allowed to come ( they are very nice to him) and the food is delicious. I personally would sophisticate the boa buns up a bit I feel like my katsu chicken bun needed a bit more excitement. I would probably add a little more verity for healthy sugar free drinks too like maybe a Kambucha ;) or bring the smoothies back tho. Still - a great place to eat.

We visited the cafe on Saturday and it was very busy. Service was a little slow but when the food came it was worth the wait. One of the waitresses apologised for the delay, which we appreciated, even though it wasn’t anything she could control. My son was really happy with his lunch and that is always a sign of approval. It was our first visit and we will return but maybe at a different time. Thank you.

Love this place and first time back since covid. They have taken some table out, have a text system to let you know when your table is ready. Food seemed even nicer having had a few months away. You will not regret a trip here I can assure you of that!

Came in for breakfast, friendly service and sat down immediately. The venue is small though so a table is not guaranteed at busy times. The menu is huge and breakfast is served all day. I had an omelette with peppers and ham which was lovely, just right. There were plenty of other options on the menu. The value is good although not great and in particular, the size of my coffee for what I paid for it was quite a lot. Still good overall though and a great place for breakfast.

I took my family for lunch to celebrate my nieces 18th Birthday. The staff & food were excellent, fantastic menu . I asked if they would mind if i brought a birthday cake along & they were more than happy to oblige. They brought the cake to the table with candles lit & sang happy Birthday .

We often visit ORC on a Sunday morning. We were so excited when we heard that they were opening for collection and delivery. We have collected breakfast every Sunday since and it has been to the high standard that it always is. It is always piping hot and the portions are huge. Thank you for making our amazing weekend breakfast ORC!

Just had a delivery from Oxford Road Cafe, the food was absolutely delicious, fresh so tasty and lovely sized portion. Definitely recommend.

Freshly made sandwiches. Great choice and good service.

Went today with my son, we both enjoyed a full English, staff were pleasant, the cafe was really busy, people coming and going at all times, worth a visit

Great food but a long wait for a table. Turned up at 1:00pm on Saturday afternoon looking for a table for 5 plus a high chair. We were told it would be 20 minutes so we waited, and waited. It was 40 minutes before a table was available. So by the time we ordered and we’re served it was close to 1 hour 20 minutes after arriving. This is not anyone’s fault - clear success brings problems for the diner!The food is excellent but the table arrangements are geared towards couples not 4+ family groups.

Great food - I got the special of sweet potato waffles with popcorn chicken and bacon which was amazing. So much choice on the menu too (big portions too!). And friendly staff!

Lovely food always served hot and presented nicely. Helpful staff. Good range of things on the menu.

So placed a quick order to collect and as you can see price clearly states for scrambled eggs salmon and spinach is 7.50. I was argued with and told that it's never been 7.50 and then well they don't know what it says on the website. WTF. Not a huge issue but it was work breakfast order so paid some cash and some through myself but just didn't like the way I was spoken to. Food was good.

I go here regularly, once a week at least. Always great quality food. Clean, fresh and great for breakfast lunch or tea!

Been here twice, the first time I thought the food was nice, but the plates and cutlery were dirty, had granola to start with and found spinach in there, went to drink my tea and lipstick was on the cup. We up and left thinking it was just a one off.Visited again last week and offered a breakfast and found a long hair in there. Then the waiter sneezed into his hands and carried on serving plates of food to customers.So all in all the hygiene rating is very low in my opinion.

Let me start by saying I eat here often and that wouldn’t be so if the food and staff were not great every time. I would give this place an overall review of 5 starts as they have a very big menu and do all of it well, and that is RARE!!! Tho this is a Caffe and has a lot of typical caffe breakfasts etc but it has quite a few restaurant quality dishes as well. The salads are great and well thought out, pulled beef on anything is always a treat and the specials use to hit the nail of the head every month! Talking about my most recent experience this afternoon, it was good but not Oxford road usual quality. I love that they have tried to put some more authentic dishes on the menu but serving bao buns with lettuce didn’t quite feel right to me. Especially with hoisin duck. May I suggest serving it with something pickled anything would do but Kimchi has featured in some of the best bao buns I’ve ever eaten( and I’ve had a lott), and even so the duck is mixed with hoisin offering a red hot spicy sauce to go with it even on the side will set these buns apart from your bog standard. As I could not pick between the jerk chicken and duck so I had both. I was less impressed with the chicken and feel it really needs at least a sauce to tie it all together. I think battered deep fried chicken would go much better in a boa bun. The salad that came with it was just rocket on its own and some sesame dressing would of been very nice ! Overall I love it here I just feel these dishes need perfecting.

Popped in for lunch. Great selection on the menu including gluten free. Staff very friendly and helpful.

My husband and I have been visiting here for breakfast for years and it is always absolutely amazing! The menu caters for everyone, with a wide selection of healthy and not so healthy treats. The Eggs Benedict are my personal favourite, poached eggs are perfect every time.

This lovely central hidden eatery is a much better than any of its neighbours for a daytime breakfast/brunch/lunch. Very busy with great food and great prices. Very friendly team. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I love this place.

The best place to get brunch/ breakfast in Altrincham by a mile. Not expensive either and the team are lovely and welcoming.

Loverly lady behind the counter and the sandwiches are fairly cheap, the menu is also pretty good with various of your favorite combinations. I had a BLT today which to be fair was filled quite well bacon was a bit under done for my liking, the other sandwich we had was a chicken mayo slightly disappointed with this one and a bit unfair to say why on here! This is why we gave it 3 stars instead of four

We arrived as it opened at 9am on a Sunday. The service was good. I had the full English, but didn't want the egg or black pudding, so they swapped it out for an extra sausage and bacon. Pleasant staff and reasonable prices

Very nice little cafe in between hale and altrincham. Ordered the Oxford road bacon and eggs and thought it was delicious. The young waiter who served us was very polite and was very kind. My only bad comment would be the menu was sticky but otherwise amazing!

I arrived in the town earlier than expected for a business meeting & spotted this place as an option for some impromptu breakfast.

very good sandwiches and crispy baguettes

This is a fantastic, buzzing place ,ideal for Saturday brunch, which is exactly what my friend and I headed for last week.
