Rico's Pizza Shack in West Oxfordshire

I don’t know how many times I have asked for no tomato and no onion, to still get it added every time. A simple instruction.

Awful awful place. Came in for the first time to grab a quick coffee before meeting some friends in Witney. Young man served me and was extremely rude and Impatient with me. Made me feel quite uncomfortable and rushed. Slammed my coffee down and when I ask for some extra milk on the side he let out a sigh and gave me a really angry look. Not the best service at all. I just couldn’t believe it, he was just so unnecessarily rude. While drinking my coffee a young blonde girl with baggy trousers was clearing a table next to me. I politely asked her who the young man was serving and she told me that he was called George. Maybe George was having a bad day and I take that into consideration absolutely but there’s no need whatsoever to speak and treat your customers so rudely. Very disappointed and certainly won’t be coming back!

What an eclectic little Italian restaurant! It was most amusing to find that virtually all of the staff were still at school and were working for 'pocket money' in the evenings! The service provided by Benjamin, Eilah, Amelia and Adam was very good though. The food was very basic and over seasoned and also I felt slightly overpriced for what it was. For ambiance the room was sometimes warm, but mostly cold with lots of condensation on the windows. One of the staff replaced the dead rose on our table with a fresh one and our wine cooler looked like something from back in the early 70's but not in a retro good way. The team go out of their way to make birthdays special though with fancy candles and singing - although we landed on a Tuesday evening dine-in to find that there were approx 5 other people having a birthday meal out too. If it wasn't for the lovely staff my score would definitely have been a lot lower. I wouldn't eat here again and if you go in without high expectations then you won't be disappointed.

Cannot recommend Paddy and the Cotswold Pizza Company enough. Having explored many options for the evening food at our wedding just outside Gloucester, Paddy stood out with glowing reviews on several platforms - having worked with him I see why! He was always available to answer questions over the phone and emails and even took time out of his weekend to visit the venue with us a few weeks before the wedding. The pizzas were very reasonably priced and on the night were a hit, with everyone was raving about them the following day. Thank you so much to Paddy and the team for contributing to a stress-free planning process and wonderful day!
