The Falcon is one of the few places that successfully combines being a local pub but also a resturant. The resturant area is open with lovely views of the garden and of the surrounding countryside. It is possible on a fine day to sit in the garden surrounded by the flower beds. Almost the entire menu is gluten free and I have never before visited a resturant with such a large choice of gluten free food. All food was freshly cooked, but also served promptly. Our waitress was charming and nothing was too much trouble for her. A visit to the Falcon was a wonderful experience and an excellent meal.

We met a friend for lunc, half-way between our homes. It was great to see so many vegan options on the menu. Our mains were a curry and the small plate risotto and both were delicious. The sde salad needed some dressing, hence 4 stars for food. Beautifully furnished pub. Lots of space between tables. Very friendly, helpful staff. Dog friendly. It's not local to us but we have arranged another two visits already! On one of our road trips and for Christmas (and, yep, it is only April!!)

Fabulous Country Pub with delicious and hearty food. Extensive menu, seasonal, local, exquisitely presented and a great relaxed atmosphere. Comfortable and welcoming for everyone - offering pub menu favourites, fine dining, special celebrations, as well as intimate dining, business lunches and pub grub for country walkers alike. Roaring log fire and olde world feel makes the ‘pub’ feel cosy but also sophisticated and elegant Back soon, thank you!

My husband and I decided to pop out for a cheeky lunch to the Falcon to celebrate me retiring from work. They never let us down. We had the added bonus of seeing the lovely Sandy back working there. She always provides a warm welcome and looks after us. She is attentive to detail and nothing is too much trouble. Clearly she is highly experienced and customer focused. That cannot be said of everyone! Carl and I shared the crispy quid for starters, which I love. I then had the vegetarian curry and Carl had the steak burger. Carl's fries were not quite hot enough and Sandy insisted on replacing them with some fresh fries. I had the small pudding with a hot drink which is just enough for me. I ordered a lovely oat milk cappuccino with a small sticky pudding, which was delicious. Quite simply with Sandy at the helm, our dining experience at the Falcon was enhanced, that's a plain fact. Thank you, Sandy.

Lovely pub, food out of the ordinary bar food. Service impeccable, we had a newbie waiter & he was great. Had plenty of GF options. Food was presented like a top notch restaurant . Best ladies toilets I've seen in a while, clean, tidy & brilliantly decorated, like the whole pub, inside & out. This was our first time here, was a half way point to meet up with family. Will definitely be returning.

The Falcon is one of our favourite places to eat! We were there on Sunday as a family and Tom looked after us so incredibly well. All our dishes were delicious. Especially the Crispy Chilli Beef and the Roast Shoulder of Lamb. It was a windy day so we didn't hang around outside but on a dry, warmer day the views are stunning. If you haven't yet been put The Falcon on your list, you won't be disappointed.

While the staff were friendly and it’s a lovely environment, my husband and I were a little disappointed in the Sunday roast. I had the beef, the beef was cooked nicely and the gravy was delicious however the veg really let the meal down. My 4 tiny potatoes were all rock hard, over cooked and impossible to eat, one tiny piece of carrot, a pile of cabbage and a weird super puréed looking baby food type pile which I refused to even try. Husband’s 2 large roasties were undercooked and his plate also seriously disappointed on the veg front. And for the price of the dish you’d expect a decent amount of everything.

Went with my husband and two friends for an early dinner. Enjoyed the atmosphere and good food but felt it was a little pricey, especially the side dishes of vegetables at £4.95, each also better to share a bottle of wine than to buy it by the glass.

Love this pub. The food it very tasty and I always over indulge. It is expensive but the food it worth it. You can book a dog table which includes snacks. My burger and fries was really good and dessert is always a treat, I always order the cafetiere which is such a blast. Everyone on my table loved the atmosphere and the warming fire and leather sofas (we sat at a table) are a great add. The staff are uber friendly. Highly recommend, for a good night out. They have a large car park. But I would book.

Had a lovely time with a group of friends. My only reservation is that it's a little pricey, but we just went for drinks and pudding, which worked well. Always a welcoming, cosy atmosphere, but also lots of space and choice of where to sit. It was surprisingly well frequented on a cold, wet Monday evening in January. The puddings are delicious! I had a mini brownie (amazing) with hot chocolate, which came as one, rather than a bigger pudding. Lots of parking, and it's just a quick drive up the road from Banbury but surrounded by open fields for miles.

Stopping at the Falcon is always factored into the day and it never lets us down! The most delicious menu from small bites to its main meals, it’s wonderfully warm and always a great welcome from all the staff. I must say as a publican it gives me pub envy vibes, also a few sneaky ideas for my neck of the woods too!! Thank you for all the fantastic visits and for having the best pub loos ever!!!

The food is not good at all, especially for the price. You can't charge 16.95 for 4 pieces of pasta which is chewy and tastes awful (wild mushroom tortellini). The food is below average and needs a lot of work (main courses specifically, starters were okay and sweet potato soup was very yummy). But the service was amazing and so was the ambience just rubbish food. Need a new chef maybe.

Sadly our recent visit was not great. We went to start our Christmas week off, and were placed in a quiet side section with little festive charm. Staff were attentive and efficient but our table wasn't fully set and lacked the crackers. There was an issue with my Pil Pil prawns...they were just prawns in water, this was quickly resolved but they were not good overall once the correct dish was sent out. The hake was very dry and not great, full of bones and over cooked. My mushroom tortellini said it came with a puree, but it was just 2 pea sized dots. Overall really disappointed as previously we have always enjoyed The Falcon. Hopefully it was a one off due to different chefs or being busy, but that shouldn't be an excuse either.
