Quod Brasserie & Bar in Oxford

Pre-theatre dinner. The place was buzzing at 530pm on a Friday night with no spare tables - lucky we had booked. The service was fast and efficient but not rushed. We had super mocktails and then pizza and salad which was freshly cooked and tasty. Definitely be back.

The Quod has one of the best food in Oxford but it is very very noisy. Give up if you have hearing aids you have no chance, you cannot hear across your own table. We have been twice in a week and the second time asked for a quiet place..... there isn't one! Not sure about range £10-£30 more £20- £50 I think we will wait for the summer and sit outside next time.

Well located for central Oxford. Lovely Christmas decorations. Excellent service, offered tap water as we sat down, good selection of dishes. Sunday roast pork was delicious.

Otelimizin girişinde olan bu restoranın kahvaltısını deneyimledik ve çok güzeldi. Çok şık bir şekilde Noel için dekore edilmiş. Personel de güleryüzlü ve yardımsever.

Excellent Afternoon Tea, food was amazing and really good service. The restaurant was decorated beautifully with lots of tasteful lights inside and out. I can't say enough about the service, it was so good. I thought overall it was a fantastic experience and great value for money

Wir können das Restaurant gut empfehlen. Das Lokal befindet sich zwar im touristischen Zentrum von Oxford, liefert aber eine gute Qualität. Das Essen ist gut, die Bedienung schnell und freundlich, das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist auf einem guten Niveau.

We went in a family group of 8 to celebrate an 18th birthday, the service while we were there was great, attentive and discrete. The food was okay, some dishes better than others with the mushroom ravioli being very salty and the filling dry and tough. It was a missed opportunity for some nice touches given we were sharing a special event with Quod - a recent visit to Six By Nico for a birthday received free prosecco and a little card saying "Happy Birthday, thank you for sharing it with us" which is a lovely touch. The main disappointment came due to us leaving behind a specially printed place mat and drink coaster for the birthday boy, with his picture and "Happy 18th Birthday" printed on it with his name - so clearly a possession made especially for the event. When we called and visited the next day to retrieve it, we were told "You left it, so we binned it..." thankfully it wasn't a wallet then??!! A shame the attentive service was so short lived, especially as they had our phone number, or at least could have given us 24 hours to claim it.

There were 9 of us. Staff attentive. We ate on a Sunday so all the adults had the Sunday lunch. Enormous Yorkshire puddings! The food was tasty although a couple of us found their food a bit cold, staff replaced with a whole new plate of food. Bit disappointed with the coffee, it was bitter, and one was cold, but was replaced. We were given a discount on the bill, so kudos given. We were a large party so I know it's difficult to get everything served quickly. The staff were lovely. Oh, and one of the youngsters had a cold pizza, that was replaced also. Would definitely recommend. Two of us travelled up from the Kent coast and the others from Cheshire, for a family reunion. We had a ball, weren't rushed and generally looked after very well.

Good food, however the staff seemed unfriendly. When we were seated, the server didn't offer us water like other customers. We had to order water, and of course they brought us bottled water, instead of tap water, which they offer other customers and for which we would have preferred.

Saturday 21st September We had an amazing time here! The food was delicious and the service was fantastic! I ordered a chicken salad and did not like the dressing that it normally comes with, so I asked for a balsamic vinegar dressing. However our server recommended another one and omg it was absolutely fantastic! The service was a personal/ tailored service for each table. He genuinely cares about the needs of the customer. Fabulous. Unfortunately I did not get there name, but have the receipt - hope the name on the receipt is correct. Server: 789 Stojancho Table: 33/1 Terrace Thank you for a lovely experience!!

Great valentine's night out with my wife! Good atmosphere with great singing and piano playing nearby - a mixture of modern and classic jazz songs. Scallops and lamb cutlets with bottle of wine were brilliant!

Stopped by for a lovely cocktail back on Valentines!! And the music was great too, especially loved when the singer started Skyfall.

Absolutely fantastic from booking to departure! We booked Quod to celebrate our daughters 21st birthday with grandparents on 28th Feb 2024. We were 9 people and enjoyed the set menu a few bottles of wine, coffee and our own birthday cake they kept hidden until we were ready and then they lit the candles and presented it to her. From the moment we arrived and appointed our own waitress we were taken care of so well. Nothing was too much trouble and all our requests had the answer “yes” . We had such fun and felt so welcomed and well catered for. We feel so lucky to have chosen Quod for such a special celebration so Thankyou to the whole team for making it so perfect !

I had phoned up a month before to book a traditional high tea as we were celebrating our granddaughters 21st as she is studying at oxford university we thought it would be a nice place to visit, I explained ideally what we would like and my granddaughter was vegan and I wanted it to be special as it was a very important day. On arrival we were ushered quickly to a table the restaurant was busy with people having main meals I couldn’t see anyone having afternoon tea. The waitress came and offered us a jug of iced water, left us with a menu for the cream teas ,and then disappeared, when she came back she didn’t make any reference to what we had booked or to any reference to our celebration it would have been nice to have had a pleasant comment regarding the occasion we were celebrating, she just took the menu and asked whether we wanted tea and coffee no mention of what the traditional high tea consisted of for that day and the fact one of our requests was a vegan one even though this had all been stipulated when booked. When the traditional high tea arrived it was rather underwhelming to say the least there was 4 very small dainty finger sandwiches 1 plain 1fruit scone 1 pudding and 4 tiny cakes, two of the sandwiches had sliced cucumber on and the other had ham on. It would have been nice to have had a few more dainty sandwiches, we had said when we booked we would have liked cheese, and egg and cress as well as ham which are basic ingredients after all we didn’t expect a couple of sliced cucumber. The scones were the best part with the cream and jam, but the rest was very disappointing, also we were not made aware that there were refills of tea and coffee until I requested another pot of tea. No information was given about anything that was on the menu. We have had many cream teas but I can honestly say we have never experienced anything quite as poorly executed as this was, needs to do better!

Une soirée d'anniversaire en famille très réussie ! Un délice dans nos assiettes, un service impeccable malgré le monde attablé ; professionnel, souriant et attentionné. Une addition très correcte, bref "what else " ! Pour notre 1ère soirée à Oxford et nos retrouvailles de 6 mois avec notre fille, ce dîner restera un excellent souvenir. D'ailleurs celle-ci, qui ne connaissait pas encore votre établissement, y reviendra avec joie avec ses amis du campus EF. Au plaisir d'y revenir, Bien chaleureusement,

Obviously on the expensive side but good food and excellent service. We came to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Had the special scotch egg and falafel for starters, and ribeye steak for mains. With a couple of cocktails. Our waitress (from Namibia / South Africa) really made our night. Friendly, funny and honest.

We visit probably four times a year to meet up with old friends. Every time we visit the ambiance and overall experience is great but I do wish you’d change your menu. We’ll be forced to eat elsewhere soon as we’ve just about eaten the whole menu now - sea bass, risotto, tagliatelle, cassoulet, pizzas, spatchcock chicken to name but a few! All tasty but we’re a bit bored after probably 3/4 years of the same. Sorry!

While the service and ambiance at Quod were lovely, our overall experience did not quite live up to the restaurant's reputation or price point. Highlights: Service: Friendly and attentive staff made us feel welcome and comfortable. Ambiance: The atmosphere was pleasant and lively, perfect for a casual dinner with friends and family. Lowlights: Food: While my husband enjoyed his dish, mine and my daughter's were underwhelming. Monkfish Special: Disappointed by the abundance of chickpeas and lack of monkfish in the special. Ravioli: Lacked flavor and had a watery sauce. Sides: Arrived late and the broccoli was overcooked. Desserts: Average, with the pear pavlova falling short of expectations. Overall: Despite the positive aspects of service and ambiance, the inconsistent food quality and high prices make us hesitant to return in the future.

I went to Quod recently for a nice evening out. The burger was lovely and the atmosphere was great despite there being a lot of people. The duo of singer and pianist playing a series of love songs, and really improved the atmosphere of the room.

Had a fantastic meal in this place last night , The food was fantastic and serve was on point !! Loved the surroundings and the light piano background music was fantastic , it really added to a great night !

Service was good, i had the octopus starter it was very nice and sea bass for main, very very nice, my partner had rhe fillet steak and he enjoyed it, he had it with mash it was very creamy so if you like that about mash then i definitely recommend the price is also reasonable, and the restaurant itself is really nice, the only downside is we had to park 15 minutes away but as we have never been to oxford before it was nice to walk and explore, the restaurant was fairly busy but the wait for food wasn’t long, definitely recommend

Fresh simple food cooked to its best. Nice for a romantic evening in Oxford without the kids. Really enjoyed the seafood

Sensual service, excellent food served hot,perfect size of portions, fair prices. Super nice atmosphere.

Reasonable choice on the menu and well prepared food is in nice surroundings. Would return for the food but not for ridiculously priced £10 per pint! Criminal, nearly twice what the tourist trap pubs of Oxford charge.

We have eaten at the quod before and decided to return to celebrate my birthday. I found the food really nice. However, I was unable to eat over half my main course due to feeling anxious because of our server. They were very blunt with us, and not friendly at all. At some points when taking our order, they actually laughed at my partner due to something he ordered. My drink was cleared with no offer of a new one - which i did want however it was impossible to grab our servers attention after they swiped the finished glass. They seemed generally disinterested in us, perhaps as we are a younger couple? When adding a 12.5% service charge, the service should be 100% (i say this as a server myself). When clearing my half eaten plate that i couldn’t eat due to loosing my appetite because of the server, there was no question of whether the food was okay - (which it was, but really this should be checked if half the plate is left). I didn’t want to make a fuss and we paid the service charge ontop of the £120 bill despite the bad service. Then, to top things off, as we were leaving my partner accidentally got in the way of our server. They then gestured at him, saying “excuse you”. This is what i feel is completely unacceptable.. as a server myself i would never speak to a customer this way. At that point i really wished we hadn’t paid the 12.5% service charge. So, the food was lovely as always, however the poor service is enough to make us not return.. a regular customer lost.

Myself and my husband went for lunch during a day out before Christmas. We hadn’t pre booked but we were able to book a slot online for 1145. To give us more time to get there, we decided to phone ahead and see if we could be accommodated at 1200. We were disappointed to be told that this wouldn’t be possible and were also told by the female on the phone that she couldn’t honour our 1145 online booking either. The booking was still available online, so we chanced our luck and went anyway. To our surprise, there were only approximately 6 tables when we arrived and were greeted with the option of picking any table we liked. We had a fabulous experience and loved the setting and the food. The service was also amazing! The restaurant did get busier but there were still empty tables when we left, so it felt very much like the female we spoke to on the phone was trying to avoid taking more bookings.

Food was very tasty and portions generous. Waitress was very friendly and the service was excellent. Having an allegen list would help significantly for those with food allergies such as myself and give diners more comfort on what dishes and what dishes don't have certain allergens. Restaurents can't just rely on staff knowledge as they do make mistakes like we all do. Also the allegen dish flag system on dishes that many restaurents use would be helpful. Certainly more expensive than last time we ate here a year ago. All said it still has a magic feel to it at Christmas time.

We had a fantastic meal in this lovely restaurant. Excellent quality, value and service. Highly recommended.

We dined here this afternoon for Sunday lunch with our daughter . The place was busy and buzzing. Loved the interior ambience. Food was wholesome, tasty, well presented, good portion size and reasonably priced for a city centre restaurant. Friendly and efficient service from Virgillio, our waiter. He even indulged last minute request for birthday candle which came on a scoop of ice cream with writing . Thank you

Five of us sat ideally on a round table served by a very attentive server, Alesia. Alesia looked after us well and knew exactly what we would appreciate from a customer point of view. Making sure we had our toast to accompany our different breakfasts to making sure the water was still hot for the cups of tea. Without feeling of being rushed out (in fact we were there for a good few hours) Alesia was quick to serve us. We had a great day out and can hug my recommend the Quod for service, quality of food and a lovely environment too.

A lovely afternoon tea with friends at the beautiful Quod in Oxford. Stunning decor, a lovely atmosphere and attentive staff. Excellent quality food, and far more than we could eat … cake box taken home for devouring later!

Such a lovely vibe in the restaurant, busy, vibrant and cosy. We went for afternoon tea and had the wonderful Vanessa wait on us, food was great, service was fantastic! Thank you, we will be back!

I myself have worked in hospitality all my life and know a thing or two about a good food and service. Quod is one of my all time favourite places to go for a meal or a cocktail. The menu choices are so diverse that even snobbiest of snobs will find a dish they will like. And then there’s always the specials and fresh oysters. The location couldn’t be better and the interior design is very classy. The service from Maisy was 1st class! Thanks and see you soon

We first visited Quod almost 12 years ago, and it has been a regular location for meals on our visits to Oxford . We went on Friday to celebrate our daughter’s graduation. The restaurant was full, but that did not impact the service or the quality of the food , both of which were excellent as well as a very nice wine. Over the years there have been little dips, but to maintain the standard overall is sone achievement . ( Our waitress had been working there almost as long , that says something about them as an employer in a market place where tenure is short)

This restaurant is fantastic. In a beautiful setting, with a delicious menu and fabulous service it is a must visit if in Oxford. It offered a wonderful buzzy atmosphere with a delicious and comforting menu. We enjoyed lovely cocktails and service was second to none. I look forward to visiting again.

Absolutely most amazing Sunday lunch could not fault it, can’t wait to return ,every element was perfect 😍

Such a lovely early evening meal which was a treat for us and our children (11&13) on our last night in Oxford. The food was perfect as was the service. We will definitely visit again when we’re next in Oxford.

This was a lunch for nine. The waitress Vanessa was great, really helpful and friendly. They didn't seem to mind when two of us were three quarters of an hour late, and didn't insist on the others ordering. The food was very good, including the lunch set menu, as was the house wine. We were there for several hours, and were never hassled about the table.

Brought crab not pork starter. Eater was not allergic to shellfish but I am.Service charge automatic. Never ok. I left a tip not realising until afterwards.For quality of food a third too expensive.Would not go again unless could not get a booking elsewhere

Recently enjoyed a birthday lunch here. We are mainly vegetarian and found something to suit all of us.it was very busy on a Saturday afternoon and sometimes difficult to get waiting staff attention. All 3 staff in our section seemed to be 8 months pregnant..just an observation but felt sorry they had to work so hard on a hot day.it was very noisy and I didnt feel entirely comfortable with so many people. I think outside had been booked by a wedding party.when making the booking I had to leave a credit card which is understandable.

Booked here for family whilst on a weekend trip to Oxford. A great restaurant in a good location. Lovely interior decor and buzz. All of us enjoyed the food, asparagus was amazing as was gazpacho, fish and pork tagliatelle. Good portions for each. Watertight service from our very attentive waitress. All in all a great find and there are many places could learn a thing or two as to how to do things like this place .

Booked for a family of four. Called ahead to see if we could go early for drinks, but told no availability. When we got there for the booked time, a good number of tables were empty - guess they didn't want the cocktail income we spent before hand (Folly cocktails recommended!!!). Did have some cocktails here and they were excellent Espresso Martini recommened.Food was good with no complaints, though a medium steak was definitely on the rare side. Not sure the price/quality ratio is right though.Live piano music was great - lots of jazz staples!! Atmosphere was really good and as the place filled up, there was quite a buzz.

My mum and I booked here for lunch while in Oxford as we were going to stay at the Old Bank Hotel but didn’t due to a 2 night minimum stay.The staff were very friendly when we arrived and sat us straight away. Our table was by the stairs to the bathrooms which wasn’t ideal but not a big issue. Our waitress Maisy was fantastic, super helpful and friendly! I had a milkshake which was delicious followed by the duck which was spectacular. My mum had the ravioli which I tried and was amazing too. The menu had so many great options and every meal we saw go past looked amazing!Definitely worth a visit if you are in Oxford.

Great food, delightful friendly service but our waitress could have done with a notepad! Really accommodating to personalising dishes to suit our individual tastes. Good ambiance, super clean.

The atmosphere and customer service was excellent. The food was rather average, not what I was expecting for the price. The drinks were over flowing with ice and very little drink. Moved to a different venue for dessert !

The fixed price lunch menu is a bargain for the quality. Generous wine measure by the glass. Good acoustics and no background music which was nice. Clean toilets. The only negative was that the doors were open to the terrace which made inside draughty.

Ate from early evening fixed price menu. Delicious fish dish, perfect sized portions for older children, lovely window - and sympathetic social distancing measures

I had lunch here with some girlfriends on the 15th May The food and service was very good - delicious risotto and chocolate pudding. We had to eat outside due to the pandemic. The outside awning protected us from the worst of the weather but they could have put on the outside heaters as it became chilly - that was the only downside. Hope they do retain the outside covering but perhaps it would be worth investing in something more permanent which could be opened up on sunny days...

We had been looking forward to a meal at Quod for a long time. Despite booking weeks in advance, our only option was a table in the courtyard. Passing through the restaurant, the whole place felt like we had caught the tail end of battle late in the afternoon. The waitress was quite rough and we certainly could have done with the tall heaters shown on the website. However, blankets were brought and food arrived promptly, still warm. It was tasty, although some starters such as the asparagus were a bit light and the artichoke salad didn’t have enough of its key ingredient. Main courses were all good and warm - we had a range from ravioli to lamb chops. Ditto with deserts.I think the staff were exhausted from working too hard - clearly too many covers in one day. It’s been tough for the hospitality sector this winter and I can understand they want to operate at full capacity. Sadly we didn’t feel special in our scaffold-clad courtyard.Resist the temptation to have cocktails - ours arrived with the starters which rather spoilt the spirit.

Good food, excellent staff, but quite noisy. The menu was interesting, really enjoyed the oysters and my wife and adult son devoured the desserts. Breakfast was also brilliant

I first came here at Christmas for afternoon tea. I enjoyed it then so I thought I’d try tea. Three courses for £21. I had pea soup (nice but not enough), chicken thighs, potatoes and kale (nice) and rum and raisin bread and butter pudding (good). The waiter even charged my mobile phone. A tasty, good value lunch in a lovely city!

OK I start with what went wrong: the table. Eating outdoors in England you risk that it may be a bit cold... so I called a few days in advance to ask for a table in the more protected section of the - beautifully set - terrace. I was reassured of my wish and even apologised for being a pain, but guess what? We had one of the few tables located in more exposed area, with no heaters. Our waitress did all she could to make us feel comfortable so thank you again, although a change of table was not possible on a busy Friday evening.Oh well! Maybe we expect too much not having been out very much for the last year or so.The starter I chose was very tasty but a bit "heavy"...I didn't expect so much creamy filling when I ordered the scallops gratin. That's just me having an idea of what to expect though so I am not criticising how it was done, it was very enjoyable.The main was perfection! Cod fillet which couldn not have been tastier, softer, larger or better presented, with surprisingly good roasted fennel and a delicious delicate sauce. The best meal I had in a long time - OK I haven't been out much lately but hey this was an amazing dish. Worth going back for.And the atmosphere here at Quod is always a key part of the dining.I was too full for desserts - I wouldn't have known what to choose from the tempting selection on the menu! - but I stole a huge spoonful of my husband's ice cream and it was scrumptious. Proper gelato - trust me on this one, I am Italian.Thanks to the staff, looking forward to coming back again.

It was our first time visiting Quod and we will definitely be back! Virgilio was very welcoming and helpful throughout. Quick and amazing food. The risotto was our favourite (pea and goats cheese). Best service we’ve ever had. Thank you!

We booked ahead for breakfast/ brunch having seen good reviews. Staff were fairly unfriendly and made us feel uncomfortable. Ordered a side of ‘bowl of fresh berries’ which was small for £8 and the fruit was not particularly fresh- strawberries were mushy. Also, my partner’s plate was dirty. The food was nice but we were looking forward to more for the price/ reputation.

Visited for breakfast on the 1st May, we were served by Virgilio, exceptional service throughout! Was super helpful and smiley throughout our dining experience, nothing was too much trouble! He made our days :)

Had some amazing food at Quod this week. The terrace is beautiful and covered overhead, so it doesn't matter if it rains. But it's entirely ventilated and still outdoors which is great. The food was absolutely sublime, and, after informing the staff that I wanted to order a dish without the dairy-based sauce, rather than just withold the sauce, the chef impromptu made an alternative dairy-free dressing to accompany the dish. These are the things that make you remember a dining experience and tell your friends. We'll be back, thanks for a lovely afternoon, Quod.

Ok this is my theory: when you have a quite big restaurant that serves many tables it can become formulaic and uncreative; but when the pandemic has forced you to only open your terrace to a few tables, it’s more like cooking for family - you want them to love the food, you’re trying to impress them and you want them to come back. I’ve always loved the Quod as a great place for drinks, not necessarily for dinner, but I have just been surprised by a really delicious meal. Really. Delicious. I mean memorable. I’m sorry I didn’t take photos before I wolfed it down - but for the record the starter was the pea, lovage and straticcielli risotto and the main was the roast fillet of red gurnard with jersey royal potatoes and samphire. I’d never had this rather scary fish before but it was perfectly cooked and delicious. Words cannot describe the fresh loveliness of the risotto. The terrace looks fabulous on a late spring evening. Get in there while it’s still great!

I went to Quod today for lunch with my 2 children as it was my son's 23rd birthday. We chose this particular restaurant as we really liked the look of the outdoor seating area and with Covid restrictions meaning we have to sit outside at the moment, this was an important factor in our choice. They have done a great job with plenty of (inobtrusive) heaters and quite a bit of cover so even though it was pouring with rain, we felt warm and cosy at our table. Our waiter was great, really helpful and attentive and the food was excellent. We were all really impressed and would definitely go back again. The set lunch was really great value too. Sadly the kids decided they preferred the a la carte but that's presumably because I was paying! Highly recommended.

After visiting this place a couple of times for drinks only, my boyfriend and I decided to try it for lunch. Our waiter Virgilio was extremely nice and really helpful, I am vegan and he politely guided me through my options, he did everything to accomodate my requests. I decided to go for the baked farinata and the aubergine risotto, I was really impressed, especially with the starter: a simple but full of flavour dish. My partner went for the set lunch menu with chicken liver as a starter, lamb for main and butter bread with ice-cream for dessert, he was really pleased. We also recommend this restaurant for the atmosphere and the cocktails (my favourite one is the pink grapefruit margarita!).

It was so nice to be back at Quod & discover the amazing courtyard area! What a treat it was, we had a lovely table, the atmosphere was relaxed with a great buzz. As the courtyard is very protected from the elements, no one got cold, in fact many of us took off our jackets! Service was swift & attentive. The food was just amazing, had I forgotten how good it was before Covid, or have they come back better?! Presented beautifully, and in our party we all had a variety of dishes & everyone was happy with their choice. Have already booked a return visit!

Whether it was the pleasure of being back for lunch at Quod, the lovely warm, spring day, being able to sit outside on the terrace without blankets or heaters, the very good food and excellent service or a combination of all of them, we had a great time. Food was as good as ever - one of us had the good value set menu and enjoyed the salmon rillettes followed by the chicken and bacon roulade, another the delicious octopus and then the fish of the day, monkfish with lentils and samphire, which we all reckoned was excellent. I took advantage of the new asparagus and hollandaise and then a modest pea and wild garlic risotto, which was very well made and very satisfying. Too full for puddings apart from some ice cream - again very good - and coffee. We drank good prosecco. Lovely attentive and prompt service.

We had brunch on the terrace. The restaurant looked lovely as we walked through, the terrace was very nicely presented and covered over for outside dining, and the toilets were absolutely immaculate. The service was acceptable and the food was acceptable, I've experienced far better of both but on the whole we were pleased with our visit.

Excellent food and service and wonderful festive atmosphere. Having a live lady pianist was such a bonus - she played jazz and Christmas classics. Just loved it!

Enjoyed a special night out with our teenage daughters. Food was delicious and it was lovely to have some great live piano playing too!

We had a great evening here. Xmas decorations are pretty, COVID measures are great, but above all the service and food were first class. The cod with fennel was perfectly cooked and the sweets exceptional. Our Latvian waiter (sorry didn’t get his name) was top quality - knowledgeable, attentive and professional and such a lovely guy. Thanks, Quod for a perfect evening

Me and a friend visited for afternoon tea during a shopping weekend. We dined on Friday at 3pm which is when afternoon tea starts.The restaurant felt very Covid safe with seperating screens and distanced tables and all staff wore see through masks which made it easy to hear and understand them. All staff we saw were efficient and polite.We went for the Graduation tea which came with a glass of champagne and we started with a cocktail. Everything was amazing - the drinks good and food very tasty, especially the warm scones. Fantastic value for money and we had some leftover food boxed up to take out. We weren’t rushed and had a relaxing time.Would definitely visit again.

We visited on a Saturday night and even though it was fairly busy inside Andrea our waitress was extremely attentive and let us relax and enjoy our meal (we weren't constrained to a time for our table). I had Octopus to start which tasted delicious and you could tell all the food was of high quality. Andrea really made our night special and was very accommodating to our request to move outside for the final hour after our meal.

Great location. Covid compliant. Friendly, attentive and knowledgeable staff. Decent menu, food was well presented, very tasty and reasonably priced. Faultless service. Would definitely return.

Really like this brasserie on the High Street. Nice, friendly staff. Quick service and very nice food. Worth checking out if you are in Oxford. I had supper and breakfast here on a weekend trip.Good!

Great location with an exceptionally high standard restaurant finish. The Afternoon Tea was very good value. The only thing that stops this being 5 stars was the slightly uninterested staff but otherwise a great experience and would come again.

Whilst walking around Oxford my girlfriend and I were looking for a place to grab some lunch, and stumbled across the old bank hotel, after a look at the menu we were convinced. The food was fantastic, and my girlfriend very much enjoyed the basil daiquiri, which was delicious. The highlight however was the service, unfortunately I cannot remember our waitresses name, however she was Eastern European, with dark hair, nothing was too much trouble, she recommended dishes and cocktails to try, and have some great tips about where to visit in Oxford and the surroundings. As and when we’re back in Oxford we will definitely return, and hope to stay at the hotel also.

A lovely setting in Oxford but tables are very close to one another even in 2020?We visited for just drinks which were a little on the steep side but the food looked good but never felt much of a friendly or welcoming atmosphere on arrival so wouldn’t rush back.

We stopped off in Oxford as it was mid-way for us. We were looking for a nice place to enjoy an evening meal. It was a Saturday evening as well and Covid was lurking. We arrived at the Quod Restaurant. It was extremely busy but a table was found for us almost straight away. The rest of the evening was just a brilliant experience. All of the staff were very busy but also very attentive. The food was hot, tasty and served on time in spite of how busy it was. We were very lucky to be able to get a walk-in table on such a busy evening but it was certainly worth while. I would certainly recommend it, no question. Thank you for such a lovely evening.

We were three adults and a baby who had late lunch on Saturday The restaurant was busy which was lovely to see at last. The food was excellent and the service absolutely outstanding and attentive at all times. Highly recommend

We wanted to pop in somewhere for pre-dinner drinks (we had booked in for a meal elsewhere on this occasion). We had looked at Quad prior to coming to Oxford so we asked at the door and we were told there was a garden area behind where we would be welcome to have drinks without eating.There were 3 or 4 tables of people outdoors similar to ourselves. Service was very good and the restaurant looked lovely as we left ! It was a little cool for drinks outdoors, we just had the one and moved on, but it just happened to be a cool breeze that evening - they had placed rugs outdoors if people wished to use them ! May return to dine in the future, and the drinks we had were very nice.

We visited Quod whilst in Oxford for a 4 day break. It was our last night so we wanted something a little special and Quod didn't disappoint. A Lovely big airy restaurant, great decor with a buzzy atmosphere, without being too intrusive, social distancing is being observed really well here too and everything was sparkling clean, with attendants in the toilets keeping an eye on things. We had the best waitress in Andrëa, she was attentive without being overbearing but also a lot of fun, you could see how well she got on with her customers by the way they interacted with her, even asking her to be part of a group photo at one point. Our food was really good, I had the Goats cheese starter which was so good but quite large, my husband had the Beef Carpaccio which he said was also very good. I had the Duck Leg for main, one of my favourite dishes and the chef very kindly swapped out the Celeriac for creamed potatoes, it also came with braised Red Cabbage, absolutely sublime but so big, i couldn't finish it unfortunately, nor could i manage a pudding, but I was very happy with what i'd eaten. The cocktails are really good, with a nice selection and some signature ones which makes a nice change. We were in the restaurant for 3 hours and didn't feel rushed at all, Andrëa actually informed us we had the table for the night and just to enjoy and take our time, such a rarity and not just in these times. I would highly recommend Quod if vising Oxford, we had a fabulous evening there and would definitely book again when we return.

Visited with friends early Saturday evening. City centre location and last visited a couple of years ago. Large glass frontage is inviting as were the staff. Excellent atmosphere but still with good Covid measures. Food menu had excellent choices along with some specials. We all had 3 courses and all were excellent. Wine was good as was the service. Excellent in every way

Acabamos de comer en Quod en Oxford como parte de un fin de semana. Muy buen restaurante, la comida era excelente, buen ambiente y muy buen servicio, nuestra camarera, Vanessa, fue muy atenta y tuvo una manera agradable, una experiencia muy agradable y lo recomiendo encarecidamente si se hospeda en el área de Oxford.

Tuvimos un almuerzo maravilloso en Quod. El servicio fue impecable y el restaurante en sí tiene un gran ambiente. Nuestra comida era perfecta, teníamos pescado y obviamente estaba muy fresco. Los camareros estaban muy bien informados sobre la comida y pudieron dar recomendaciones. Todo excelente.

We had an awesome evening tonight at Quod. Andrea was so warm, welooming and funny and nothing was too much trouble. From the Bloody Mary’s where we were asked for our spiciness preference from 1-10, to our beautiful risotto where we were accommodated with our wish to add Salmon and mushrooms. Thank you to Chef George for amazing food and to Andrea and the team for awesome service which was so attentive yet considerate - you made it a memorable evening.

Cuando visitamos Oxford, decidimos probar el restaurante Quod para cenar y no nos decepcionó. El servicio fue educado y eficiente, todos los campos y el vino eran deliciosos, recién hechos y bien presentados. Un buen toque fue el postre presentado con Feliz Aniversario escrito en chocolate en el plato, una velada agradable.Nuestra recomendación: Vale la pena una visita

We had dinner at this restaurant beautifully finished, tables were each shielded with a glass seperating panel. Staff were Very efficient food was delicious.

Un amigo y yo que visitamos Oxford durante el fin de semana reservamos el té de la tarde. Tuvimos la suerte de conseguir una mesa junto a la ventana para poder ver el bullicio de Oxford mientras se ponía el sol. Una reserva a las 5 pm probablemente ayudó, ya que el restaurante no estaba demasiado lleno. La comida que se servía era abundante. Nuestro encantador camarero preguntó si queríamos uno o dos, definitivamente consideraría el tamaño de las porciones al hacer el pedido. Sin embargo, él amablemente empacó algunos pasteles sobrantes que pudimos llevar a casa a nuestros hijos. El ambiente era encantador y disfruté del recital de piano hasta altas horas de la noche. Estamos particularmente impresionados con las medidas de Covid implementadas. Las pantallas brindaban una sensación de privacidad / seguridad, pero el espacio seguía siendo luminoso y aireado. Muy bien diseñado y creo que debería convertirse en una característica permanente.

Been several times before and you just never fail, excellent quality of produce, brilliantly cooked and served piping hot. Staff are keen to help but also not in your face. I would recommend Quod to anyone and reasonably priced too. Loved my visit.

Llegamos a Quod un martes por la noche y el restaurante estaba lleno de gente. Tiene un ambiente encantador aquí, muy cálido y acogedor, pero espacioso y elegante, con una combinación de colores rica y sofisticada, techos altos e interesantes pinturas que recubren las paredes. Definitivamente no se siente como un restaurante de cadena, sino algo mucho más especial.Aunque llegamos un poco temprano, el anfitrión amablemente hizo algunos arreglos para que pudiéramos sentarnos inmediatamente. Debo señalar aquí lo bien que lo ha hecho el equipo de Quod adaptando el espacio del restaurante a las nuevas pautas de COVID-19; aunque estábamos sentados a lo largo de la pared trasera del restaurante, había una pantalla perpleja que nos separaba de la mesa vecina, sin restar valor al ambiente del restaurante.Nos atendió un caballero educado y profesional (desafortunadamente no entendí su nombre) que tomó nuestro pedido rápidamente. Las bebidas salieron casi de inmediato, y la comida siguió poco después.El menú en Quod es sustancial sin ser autoritario, y variado de la mejor manera, con deliciosos especiales del día escritos en la pizarra del restaurante. Me parece que Quod no presenta una cocina en particular, sino que toma influencias de diferentes partes del mundo, como Italia, con las pizzas y los tagliatelle.Mi madre ordenó los tallarines con ragú de cerdo, salvia y limón. El ragu no fue tan espeso como se esperaba, pero este desafío a las convenciones fue muy bienvenido. Parecía estar perfectamente dividido (un tamaño generoso, pero no ofensivamente grande), y mi mamá informó que era fresco y más ligero que su boloñesa normal.Yo mismo pedí el filete de bacalao con hinojo asado, pero rechacé la salsa de mantequilla de cebollino. Al parecer, la cocina decidió reemplazar la salsa con una fuerte llovizna de aceite de oliva virgen extra; supongo que esta decisión se tomó porque los chefs supusieron que el plato sabría demasiado seco de lo contrario, pero realmente no soy un fanático del virgen extra. aceite de oliva ya que lo encuentro demasiado picante. Aunque hice todo lo posible para limpiar la mayor cantidad posible de aceite de oliva del plato, desafortunadamente se quedó. El filete de bacalao era de muy buen tamaño y extremadamente tierno, y el hinojo también estaba bueno, pero la llovizna de aceite de oliva me lo arruinó, me temo.Junto a mi plato principal, también pedí ratatouille y patatas fritas caseras. Me sorprendió gratamente encontrar ratatouille en el menú, ya que pocos restaurantes sirven este plato que realmente disfruto. Una vez más, la guarnición estaba en porciones perfectas y la combinación de verduras que aparecía era diversa y variada, pero cuando llegó a la mesa estaba mucho más fresca de lo que me hubiera gustado. El camarero, sin embargo, tuvo la amabilidad de llevarlo a la cocina para calentarlo a petición mía. Fue interesante; solo cada cucharada de pisto estaba deliciosa, y una de dos cucharadas también sabía. . . ¿vinagroso? Era muy extraño cómo tomaba una cucharada "buena" y luego otra que también sabía. . . ¿ácido? Yo tomé la mitad y luego mi mamá disfrutó del resto.Las patatas fritas caseras fueron la estrella absoluta del espectáculo. Había visto una mesa adyacente ordenarlos y se veían tan increíbles que supe que TENÍA que tenerlos. De hecho, eran increíblemente sabrosos; perfectamente gruesos, esponjosos por dentro, dorados y crujientes por fuera, y muy bien condimentados. ¡No podía tener suficiente de ellos! (También debo señalar aquí que las pizzas que vi llegar a otra mesa cercana también se veían INCREÍBLES, es una lástima que no estuviera de humor para pizza esa noche)Mi mamá luego terminó la velada con ciruelas escalfadas y sorbete de ciruela como postre. Creo que esto fue una decepción para ella; ella informó que era fresca, pero desafortunadamente bastante insípida.Si mal no recuerdo, creo que la factura total por dos agua del grifo, dos platos principales, dos guarniciones y un postre ascendió a poco menos de 40, gracias a los 20 de descuento que recibimos con el programa "Eat Out to Help Out". Considero que esta es una muy buena relación calidad-precio considerando el ambiente encantador en el restaurante, la profesionalidad del servicio que recibimos y la cantidad de comida que pedimos. Sin embargo, si hubiéramos pagado 60 por esta noche, hubiera esperado estar más impresionado por el ratatouille y el desierto de ciruelas escalfados, y tal vez hubiera enviado el bacalao para solicitar la falta de aceite de oliva virgen extra. Sin embargo, recomendaría mucho este restaurante, ¡aunque no solo para degustar esas deliciosas patatas fritas caseras! Si me encuentro en Oxford en el futuro, definitivamente regresaré a Quod, pero optaré por una de sus sabrosas pizzas.

Visited this well-presented restaurant with my daughter when bringing her back for her final year at Oxford. Food was genuinely exceptional and the cod was as good as any I have ever had.

Una de las mejores comidas que tuvimos en Oxford (Rissotto, Pork Ragu Tagliatelli). comida sencilla, pero perfección absoluta, ambiente muy agradable, lo cual es difícil en este momento. Nuestra camarera (posiblemente Andrea? Lunes por la noche 5 de octubre) fue una estrella absoluta. . sus recomendaciones fueron acertadas, fue amable sin entrometerse y muy profesional. Puedo decir con seguridad que hizo te evning. El único inconveniente era el precio, ¡pero sería descortés rebajar eso, ya que sabíamos de antemano!

Great location in the centre of the city, amazing service and excellent food and wine, highly recommend for an evening dinner.

Estoy escribiendo esta reseña exclusivamente para la camarera que nos atendió: fue lo más destacado del almuerzo, así que asegúrese de que Vanessa obtenga el reconocimiento que se merece por un trabajo tan excelente.Ella nos cuidó a todos sola, nunca había visto a nadie caminar / moverse tan rápido. Ella estuvo atenta, nunca olvidó nada. Divertida y servicial y honestamente te hizo sentir que nada era demasiado problema. Ella es un mérito absoluto para ti y sinceramente espero que la cuides y la mantengas bajo tu control.La comida era buena, todo estaba caliente y fresco.El restaurante tenía mucha gente allí, por lo que era ruidoso y concurrido, lo que creaba un gran ambiente. Sin embargo, diría que las mesas están separadas por 2 metros. Todo el personal tenía visores fantásticos, lo que significaba que se podía oír mucho mejor.Bien hecho en un almuerzo de boda muy memorable para mi familia.

Tuvimos una cena maravillosa aquí para celebrar nuestro compromiso. La comida no solo era excelente, sino que también tenía un precio muy razonable. Excelente ubicación y nuestro camarero, Nicolai, fue muy amable y atento.

Mi esposa y yo almorzamos en el Quod, seleccionando un menú fijo a la hora del almuerzo con una excelente relación calidad-precio.La comida era deliciosa y bien servida por un personal atento. Esperábamos menos de un restaurante tan cerca de los sitios principales como Radcliffe Camera y Bodleian Library.Mi única objeción es la de las 12. 5% el cargo por servicio es un poco elevado.

¡Este es un lugar animado propiedad de un visionario! . . Visitamos el primer día del toque de queda de las 10 pm, ¡pero el personal fue tan brillante que hicieron que la noche fuera lo más normal posible! . . muy buen menú sencillo y una buena lista de vinos. . excelentes filetes. . muy buen ambiente y obras de arte interesantes, ¡10 de cada 10! . . gracias

Boyfriend took me out yesterday on a date over Quod’s terrace and had octopus, tagliatelle, house risotto and gurnard which were absolutely lovely! Great service, too!

Nice dinner. Staff pleasant and professional. All good and a good dinner. House wine is vary acceptable.

Had lunch here on our first day on a trip to Oxford. Turned out to be a good choice. Food good. Very pleasant courtyard location if you can get a table.Unfortunately it was full and we were inside. C19 arrangements and spacing was good though. Would return next time.

I dont think I have ever been disappointed by a meal here and the last two we had in August were no exception. Really nicely presented and delicious food and very professional and nice staff. full marks

We had a table booked for 6 of us. There were screens protecting the tables from one another, but this became pretty useless as the unmasked waitress was leaning in all over us. We didn't feel very safe at all. It was a shame as the food was nice. Don't think we will be returning for a while.

We had enjoyed a lovely lunch last year when visiting Oxford. This time we only stopped for drinks outside in the courtyard. The cocktails weren’t great and we had to ask for the bill three times. No one checked in on us during the visit to see if we needed anything else. Perhaps we would have ordered snacks if someone had come back to the table.

Came here for an evening meal, not planned, beautiful place, food was beautiful, service not overly great, food on table with no cutlery, had to wait. Very clean, lovely decor. Will definately return.

I had a hard time choosing one of the things I wanted to eat from the menu, I was very happy with my choice of duck confit, it was crisp on the outside and tender as confit should be on the inside, it was accompanied by lovely creamy potatoes, and questionable cavolo nero (having lived in Italy for half of my life, I was bothered that the kale was called that, and that wasn't cooked in a traditional way, but everything else was perfect. Breakfast was good, this morning I had pancakes, they were not too sweet, as pancakes can often be. Even the coffee was good.
