We had such a lovely time at Rick’s. The food was amazing, only matched by the impeccable service from Pasquale who was incredibly kind and professional. Will keep coming here for a long time. Thanks Pasquale!

Ok food but it was very slow for semi-fast food. Also the entire restaurant smells like oil.

My 1st experience there was great but my second time wasn't. The second time I visited they didn't have fries! Then later on they said they could do the fores and I ordered dirty fries and the were really horrible! Cold and uncooked. Their milkshakes are great though.

The staff is extremely friendly, although popular, it isn’t difficult to find a seat. Our food came quickly and the quality and deliciousness was perfect. The milkshakes are made well and very yummy. With a clean sitting area and a nice variety of selections, this is definitely the best diner we’ve been to.

we were greeted by a very kind and sociable staff, in fact they immediately put us at ease. The hamburgers we chose were excellent both in terms of cooking and in terms of flavours, the same goes for the fries and milk shakes. the restaurant is very welcoming and well kept, you can see that the staff cares a lot.

It is a really nice place, especially for pancakes and fries, but I got food poisoning from grilled chicken I think. Or there might be a problem with my stomach lately.

Went to Ricks on high street with my friends, all of us ordered pancakes. I can say they were the worst pancake i had ever tried, very dry , not smooth at all soo not fresh pancakes but Supermarket ones . Its such a shame paying £8 for some Tesco pancakes

Just stopped by and had an excellent chicken burger with spicy sauce and fries. It was absolutely delicious, the service was friendly and fast. The atmosphere is good, but the music was a bit louder than I would like. I am sure they would have turned it down a bit if I asked.

I have been to the cowley Road and High Street branches, both offer fantastic burgers without a doubt. Only gripe is I have had the El passo at both branches and the high Street one seemed to have a hot sauce that the cowley brqcnh didn't, which detracted from the experience. It was just too acidic! Biscoff milkshake was unreal and the fries are always absolutely unreal. Real bonus of the hight Street branch was the welcome from Pasquale, the gm. Felt like he actually knew my mum he was so friendly. Will definitely be back to sample some different things and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere.

I've always loved Ricks on the Cowley rd, and was so happy to see another pop up on the High Street - I wandered in with a dying phone battery and a hankering for their infamous Halloumi Wrap and the server was so kind to lend me his charger while I had my dinner. I love the music choices too and the historical odes to the building's past. So glad this place is doing well.

Tried to resolve over email, no response, I.e no care given. I went to the counter to order, I asked for a veggie breakfast wrap, no mushrooms. 'Veggie' breakfast 'no mushrooms' came out, I said I ordered a wrap but was told I didnt order that, ok maybe I got it wrong so accepted. A few things ended up giving away this was a MEAT breakfast with the mushrooms taken off. - Mushroom residue and bit of mushroom on plate (see picture top right) -'VEGGIE SAUSAGE' - I had abit of both the 'veggie' sausage and normal sausage and they tasted the same.... no difference in texture, taste or smell. A miracle if true. -No hummus on plate that are in the veggie breakfast, of which we seen on another table before we left how it should look.... NO SAUSAGE on there plate either. -The biggest giveaway, There is no veggie sausage listed on the menu items for a veggie breakfast or veggie wrap. Veggie sausages are not something they do. I asked again did I order a veggie breakfast and told yes definitely I did. I queried where the hummus a was and why there was a sausage on the plate and told it was definitely a veggie sausage. However, I was offered a refund on that plate which I accepted. However, the reason I am writing this review is that the server straight up lied which I have since found out from checking menu in store and online. THEY DO NOT SERVE VEGGIE SAUSAGE, ITS NOT A MENU ITEM, IT DOES NOT EXIST... this was a lie to cover up the mistake. Absolutely disgusting, this place should be shut down for that alone, serving meat on a veggie breakast then lieing saying its veggie. Being lied to multiple times is simply disgusting when clearly evidenced it was wrong.. See the picture of this veggie sausage, then check your sausage when you have it, its the same. shocking, absolutely shocking.

The pancakes are excellent examples of American-style pancakes. Very quiet at 6pm, easy to get a table at the window. If I lived in Oxford I would come here a lot. Not licensed, so don't go there expecting alcohol.

A fine little establishment, Rick's diner offers a delectable slice of Americana right on Oxford's high street. Whether you're after a cup of coffee during the quieter morning hours, or a lively atmosphere to have lunch with your friends, Rick's is the place to go. A quality menu (pancakes or French toast for breakfast being particularly nice) and friendly service make this eatery a great haunt for locals and visitors alike. Despite the location, the prices aren't too dear. I would recommend this place to those who enjoy the aesthetic of the classic American diner, and indeed to anybody who is after a great place to sate their appetite.

I initially wrote a positive review of Lulu’s, as my first experiences there were satisfactory. However, a disappointing encounter a few months ago has completely changed my perspective on this establishment. I attempted to place an order over the phone, but it took me over half an hour to get through as my calls were repeatedly disconnected. When I finally managed to speak to someone and requested to place a pick-up order, the staff member curtly responded, "You have to order online," and immediately hung up. As I was going on my way to the restaurant, I decided to place my order in person. Yet, to my disbelief, I was again told, “You have to order online,” despite standing right at the till. This response felt unnecessarily dismissive, especially since I was already in the restaurant and prepared to pay on the spot. When I tried to comply and went onto their website, I discovered that the only option available for the dish my mother wanted was an extra-large portion. She preferred a regular portion, as the extra-large would have been too much for her to eat, based on our previous dine-in experience. I raised this concern directly with the owner, who was standing at the till. I politely asked if we could order a regular portion, given that it is served when dining in. Instead of offering a solution or even a hint of understanding, she outright refused. When I asked why, she vaguely stated that their takeaway containers were better suited for large portions. I then requested, respectfully, if they could make an exception just this once, but she continued to bluntly refuse, with no apology or willingness to accommodate. The entire interaction lacked any sincerity or effort to provide even basic customer service. As someone with years of experience in the food industry, I know that how a restaurant handles customer interactions—from answering the phone to resolving small concerns—speaks volumes about its values and professionalism. Sadly, Lulu’s demonstrated a complete disregard for creating a positive customer experience. Beyond the poor service, they are overpriced for the portion sizes provided, and don’t come with enough injera. At most other Ethiopian restaurants in the UK, customers are generously provided with a full tray or bag of injera to complement their meals. Lastly, their dine-in environment is far from inviting. The tables and chairs are sticky and uncomfortable, which does little to justify their already premium pricing. It’s disappointing to see a restaurant with potential fall so short on basic hospitality and customer care. I hope they take this feedback as an opportunity to reassess their approach to service, as they have a long way to go in meeting the expectations of their customers.

They looked after us really well for a private party for my 50th. Food (tacos) was really good. Very friendly and accommodating and they deserve more customers. Give them your support if you can. (Changed hands recently, so no Portuguese now)

Absolutely stunning meal ! If you want authentic Spanish tapas get yourself to thirty eight all staff members were very polite and explained every dish in front of you on how it was made . Top marks to the chef 👌 try the meatballs they are outrageous!! Five star !
