Booked a table for 7:15 on a Friday night ...... tried to order the oysters .. they had none ! .. next table had some ... tried to order mussells ..... both tables next to ours had some .... they said they had none! ....... you wouldn't expect them to run out so early on a Friday night..... reply to Mangers reply ..... The waiter could have told us the mussells and oysters were not available when sitting us down. Instead I spent 20 minutes decidng what I wanted .. oysters and mussells then when the waiter took order we were told at which point I had to quickly decide on something else .. sorry but definitely not a great experience

Had Sunday Roast at The fish yesterday with my family, was absolutely lovely. Great service and the food was delicious. Not to mention the desserts at The Fish are in my opinion the main attraction, fantastically presented, delicious and a great portion for the price. Thanks for the lovely lunch guys.

A little bit of france in Oxfordshire. Straight forward consistently excellent cooking in a lovely setting with very beautiful gardens. Reasonable prices and very good quality. Who needs to go into oxford? Only on the drinks side it could improve - a second proper beer from a local supplier, and a french Crement rather than Prosecco perhaps. Wine list looks great but more choice per glass would be welcome….I was desperate for a glass of muscadet with my moules! Service was good and well paced. I am delighted to discover the fish and look forward to coming back to the garden.

Dirty food with an extraordinarily rude and arrogant front of house head waitress (Denisa Cotet). Denisa was a master of ruining what should have been a lovely birthday celebration. Actual food was mixed bag and very over priced. Group of six adults. Appetisers and bread not bad but then, the guest of honour, pulled a 6 inch long black hair from her French Onion Soup. Disgusting. Makes you wonder about their covid hygiene practices? As a courtesy, I discretely tracked down Denisa and showed her the soup and hair! Her response was sorry, there's no one with such long hair in the kitchen but I'll get you another!!! Another did arrive but by then everyone had finished their food so poor birthday girl had to eat alone. Not happy, I approached Denisa privately to suggest that some sort of gesture to the lady might be appropriate and 20 mins later they offered her a drink on the house without any further apology either to her or the table. Fair enough. Main courses were a mixed bag and I suspect negatively impacted by the extra wait for us to finish our appetisers. My duck breast was brown and like cardboard and the the crispy skin soggy and burned in places. Really nasty. Fed up with the whole experience we decided to settle up and leave. To our amazement Denisa had charged us for the soup!!! Finding this really laughable, one of our party discretely went to suggest to Denisa that this should be removed from the bill but, arrogant Denisa point blank refused and was really rude about it - that's just over about £5. Feeling ripped off we left with Denisa saying that she hoped we had enjoyed ourselves and would return soon (what planet?). I did confirm to her that with such unprofessional service and dirty food, we wouldn't be returning. Shame, as we have visited over years and with poor Sebastien (who has sadly passed away) it was one of our favourite places to visit.

Poor and unattentive staff. Slow service. Food of average quality but definitely not value for money as it is quite pricey. The soup even arrived with a large hair in it and the staff could barely bring themselves to apologise for it and even suggested that we may have planted it! Avoid - many better value restaurants in the area.

Great place to stop for lunch. Super service, lovely garden and not far from Abingdon and indeed Oxford. Lovely choices on menu and food chosen well and cooked exquisitely. And just look at the champagne choice, you are in good hands. Just look at such an eclectic choice. I had the baked Camenbert, but next time will be the pigeon. Returned 1 month later, never disappointing. Super scallops

A very disappointing meal. I wanted something special for my cousins who had come from Berkshire for the day, and I booked well in advance. I had had a lovely meal there in the past. Admittedly it was June 2nd and very busy. We were prepared, therefore, to wait a long time for the meal to be served. However, what came was something of a shock. All meals lacking in taste and freshness, a rare steak when 'well done' was ordered, and one meal was near inedible and looked like something the dog had brought up. Well below the standard expected. Really, if they cannot cope with those numbers they should not overbook. We will not be returning.

We had a lovely anniversary dinner at The Fish this week. The food was delicious and the service very good. They were knowledgeable about dietary requirements and were able to provide gluten free bread without any notice. It was very tasty bread too. I had Caesar salad and monkfish and prawn tagine with coconut milk curry and my husband had crispy duck salad and seafood risotto. All of it was full of flavour and excellently cooked.

I dine to the fish since 35 years We knew very well Bastien who unfortunately left us too early A nice man! I phoned specially during the week to ask if they serve oysters on Sunday The reply was yes I ordered them straight away for two people on Sunday When I arrived no oysters and I was told I had to confirm Not true I phoned and ordered Why should I confirm again? Anyway very disapointed as I must admit I went there specially for the oysters I thought as an apologise I will get something Not at all! I missBastien. He was very welcoming and would have certainly done a commercial gesture

If I could do zero stars I would, was treated different to other customers , we didn’t get our bread and olives until 10/15 minutes of being there ,where as other customers had there’s straight away before they ordered drinks, we had our starters and didn’t get asked if everything was okay with the food , exactly the same as problem with the mains, the fish that we ordered was slimy and did not taste like it should! Not a good experience at all! Was very disappointed! Didn’t even want to pay the £55!

Despite a power failure just before midday thus ruining the chefs normal preparations. He managed to prepare most of the menu.

They were short handed today but that didn't affect the quality of the food which was very good.Good atmosphere,one of the chefs came out to help the front of house team,clearing plates,taking orders and exchanging banter with the customers.We had starters,mains and a couple of drinks which came to less than £60.Lovely service and we'd go again.

I used to live in Sutton Courtenay 20 years ago and went to The Fish many times. I went back today for lunch with my mother in law, who still lives in SC and the restaurant was as lovely as ever it was 20 years ago. Staff were attentive and the food was super. I wish I lived closer as I would go more often. The conservatory is a lovely spot for lunch. Highly recommended and I hope that I can visit again soon.

My wife and I have visited The Fish on many occasions and always been been very pleased with the excellent food and service but I am very sorry to say that on todays experience 18/07/21, the service fell exceedingly below the standards we have become accustom to. Our waitress (Daisy) seemed very uninterested and dysfunctional. The matter was made worse for us as for the first time we took family members with us after telling them how good the Fish was. After having our main courses we were left with the plates in front of us for an hour, and when the table was finally cleared there was no mention as to weather we wanted deserts. One of our party went to find the waitress to request the desert menus which were finally brought but with something of an attitude an no apology. The deserts did finally arrive but from a different waitress, we had also asked for a replacement jug of water as the weather was so unusually hot but that never arrived until we asked another waiter for the water. We declined the after dinner coffee as we felt that 2 1/2 hours for a two course meal was excessive enough. I am very unhappy because my wife and I have enjoyed coming to the Fish so much but this will certainly dent our confidence to return.

We have been lots of times before but the latest visit was a disappointment. We went on a Tuesday night at 6.30pm and had booked in advance. The first 2 courses were great and came at a reasonable pace. But after a few attempts gave up trying to get someone's attention to order desert. We then had to head to the bar to pay otherwise we would have been ignored all night. I did raise the lack or service at point of payment to be told they were too busy. Amazing as the place was less than half full. This was a real disappointment to what was meant to be a special meal out.
