Won't be buying from this place again. Firstly the delivery guy just rang the door bell and left the food on the ground. Didn't bother to wait a minute. By the time my wife open the door, the guy already drove off. My wife got a wrap which was wet and didn't taste fresh. You don't put wet salad in a wrap I ordered a banana milk shake, it came 3/4 filled. My lamb shawarma was really hard, wasn't sure if there was a bone or if it was over cooked. Only English breakfast was the only decent dish that tasted alright. Definitely should've ordered food from elsewhere.

Order arrived after an hour after it originally said. My baguette was burn. We ordered a cheese and ham baguette and a ham salad one was provided. The coronation chicken didn't really have much taste. Very disappointed after waiting so long for it. Delivery time changed twice.

Love this place in person so we were excited to see it on just eat but wow first impressions are not good. Ordered two chicken schwarma platters - one was an incorrect platter entirely, and both were missing the bread it was meant to come with. Tried contacting them to see if this could be replaced but no response so we’ve requested a refund through just eat instead. Sorely disappointed.

Warm and sincere welcome, great food and friendly, bustling atmosphere. I especially appreciate that, when I pop in for an espresso, the cup is always heated, which means the coffee is perfect. (Yes, everywhere should do that. No, most places get it wrong, especially at busy times. Our first visit was for the tasty Lebanese breakfast. My go-to for a quick daytime treat is an espresso with a small plate of baklawa pastries to share. Highly recommended!

There's nowhere quite like Salinas, in large part due to Michael, whose welcome is just about the warmest you could hope for, but while the personalities here are wonderful, the food is arguably even better. You might not expect to find Lebanese mezzeh served in this unassuming café on Didcot Broadway, but served it is, adding a welcome extra dimension to the town for many years. Mezzehs is by no means the only thing on the menu, Salinas is a safe and comfortable place for many and varied customers and happily caters to their tastes, whether you want simply a baked potato, panini, hot chocolate or half a dozen small plates filled with beautifully presented Lebanese delights, Michael and co. will be only too happy to help.

What can I say about salinas? Other than it’s amazing service and amazing food, I’ve never seen a business care for their customers so individually! The blonde haired woman who works there appears to go all the way to make everyone happy, and as a new customer we really appreciated that for not only ourselves but those in the cafe. They food was amazing! I’ve had Lebanese food a few times and I honestly can’t stress how authentic and well presented their food appears! Salinas must be a Jewell in disguise and all I wish it to get is more and more business! Would highly recommend to friends, family and more. If you want to do some work, have a chat, meet new people, have a lovely coffee. Ticks all the boxes. Thank you for the experience! Would definitely come again! X

We ordered the "Exotic Mixed Mezzeh" for sharing. It was only £12 to be fair but the portions and selection were quite poor. I'd only really ate a few bits and pieces when I realised all we had left was a few bits of iceburg lettuce. Even at £12, it wasn't a fair price to pay. Quality wasn't bad but had far better at other Lebanese restaurants. Staff were nice.

Food and drinks here were good. However, I found a small piece of bacon in my vegetarian breakfast, luckily I’m not the strictest vegetarian so this didn’t bother me too much, but I still thought I should inform the cook, who was very rude to me and told me it was impossible, basically saying I was lying. Would have happily gone back there to eat again but the fact the cook was so rude means I will no longer go back there.

Having lived in Didcot for over 14 years, I had never visited Salinas so thought it was well overdue. We were welcomed on entry and the man who served us was very friendly. As it was earlier in the day, we decided to have lunch and tried the jacket potatoes. The jacket potatoes with cheese and beans was lovely and, the side of chips were probably the best chips in Didcot. Will be returning here soon as I'd like to try their coffee.

We have dined here twice now and each time have been so pleased with the food, along with the relaxing setting and friendly service. It is absolutely perfect if you want to grab something satisfying for breakfast/lunch. On our first visit we took advantage of the "wrap special" having a lamb and falafel wrap respectively. This was tasty and really great value, filling our tummies for just a few quid! This morning we enjoyed a grilled cheese panini and lamb platter respectively. All dishes came with crisp fresh salads and hummus which is a great touch, and the food is always plated beautifully even though it is just a small cafe. The choice on the menu is great and could cater for most diets. We looked forward to going back and trying their breakfast items next! This is our new favourite local for great quality casual eats.

I can see alot of regulars go there, maybe you need to be well known to be welcomed into the cafe. We ordered three lunches, big breakfast, tuna panini (with filling only in one part) and a lamb wrap, did not get offered any sauces.. and were made to feel very uncomfortable by the tall waiter who stood staring at us for half the lunch.

I've walked past so many times and assumed it would be a crappy little cafe, but I was lured in by the promise of a halloumi panini (I LOVE halloumi!).I'm really impressed for Didcot - it's definitely somewhere I'd take friends if they visited.The menu was slightly more interesting that your average cafe, the salad that came with the panini was nice and fresh, with some houmous to dip into. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food came out quickly.I'd love to see some more people in there. I'd love to see them add more fresh and adventurous things on the menu as I'd trust them to do it well. We could finally have a decent place to go for a lunch date in Didcot!
