The Highway Hotel Restaurant in West Oxfordshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delicious and lovely staff - best chips I think I have ever eaten too!!! A real Cotswolds gem - I would definitely recommend x

Loved it, stayed for one night with my mum (Christmas present to each other ) We checked in around 5pm after a look around the shops . Leanne checked us in and we saw her a few times during our stay and she was great ! The twin room we had was very nice . Immaculate with shower room & separate toilet , tea, coffee & biscuits, good beds & tv , hairdryer , dressing table and a nice view of the High Street. Great location and bar downstairs was cosy . We had dinner in the restaurant and it was delicious. All in all a very enjoyable stay and will return .

The pie of the day was absolutely amazing. Could not fault the service. Compliments to the chef as well, apparently makes the pies !!!

Fabulous meal , wide selection of dishes . Six of us ate here and all enjoyed our meal . we sat in a little room off the bar area , which was very comfortable . Service excellent , very helpful and attentive

Fantastic service with friendly staff. The chef is right at the top of his/her game, putting out a top quality menu. We all really enjoyed our meals. Stunning old building with a welcoming bar area. Attention to detail would’ve got this establishment 5 stars. Room laundry bags left out and toiles not up together sadly.

We stayed here for a couple of nights while Christmas shopping in the Cotswolds and Oxford. All Staff were so friendly and helpful. Thanks Lindsey for the extra attention. Rooms were fab, comfortable, nicely decorated and kitted out. It’s an old building so expect wobbly sloping floors and quirky Layout. Breakfast and dinner was superb. Freshly prepared food using local ingredients. Couldn’t fault any of the food we had. Good wholesome fair.

Such brilliant staff when we called in for dinner. A mum and daughter working so well together, but not their place. Food great, atmosphere lovely, so welcoming. Would definitely go back. Also own the Bulls Head. Thank you

Possibly the best GF fish and chips I have ever had in a pub in the UK! The fish itself is huge, really fresh and with a thick golden batter. The chips are amazing and the mushy peas and tartare sauce delicious. Being gluten free this tends to be my go to so I have tried a lot, mainly in London and South and this is hands down the best. NB I originally wanted to have the roast which was listed as a GFO but the option was to remove the yorkshire pudding and the cauliflower cheese so I decided not to, but for any non GF guests, this also looked amazing - my BF had this and the yorkie is huge! Also the place is not crowded so we had a really nice lunch here - would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back on our next visit to the cotswolds.

Cosy pub hotel serving lovely food. Staff where fantastic, friendly, thoughtful and really cared that you enjoyed the stay.

Excellent stay with dinner at the Highway Inn in Burford. Lovely old building full of character - our room was spotless and very warm and comfortable. Dinner was delicious and the staff couldn’t have been more attentive - our waitress Leanne in particular - it was bin day and meant a very noisy removal of the bins being taken outside - so to minimise the disruption she entertained us diners with a dance routine - great fun enjoyed by us all!

We went for dinner here during a short break. Lovely old town to walk around. The Highway Inn is veryt old and obviously used well by locals which is a good sign. We had booked for dinner. Lovely up market pub food. Would recommend.

Excellent food and atmosphere. Special thanks to Lindsey who was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble, she really made our evening extra lovely.

Recently travelled to Burford in the Cotswold to just look around. Feeling peckish we started to look for somewhere to get a light lunch and came across The Highway Inn on the hill in the main street. Really welcoming on arrival. We both had the soup of the day, really delicious Cream of Celairiac with warm fresh toasted Focaccia. Followed up by Coconut Panna Cota with poached Rhubarb and Honeycomb, a really fabulous dessert. We had a couple of drinks and the whole bill including service charge came to £37.35 A very warm and welcoming traditional Inn, highly recommended.

Had a lovely lunch a couple pints with a few mates, couldn't really fault the place, the staff were lovely and the area is just very picturesque.

Lovely spot - we ate outside in cute back garden area but the inside rooms looked really nice too. Food was excellent. Had the chicken breast and the lamb and both were really tasty. Would go back again!

Can’t say a bad word about this pub Staff so helpful and informative Lovely ambience the settings are great Nice choice of drinks reasonably priced and all very nice to drink Food great well worth a visit

A few days away in the Cotswolds. My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights. Room was described as a “ cosy double “. It was. On the small side, however it was very clean. We had booked in for dinner the first night. The food was delicious. The eating area was the bar, even though they had a separate dining room which I never saw used. Cleanliness here was a lot to be desired though. After a very warm night, as we were in the middle of a heat wave, with only a fan in the room, we went down for breakfast. This was laid out on the bar itself, again, not in the dining room. Lots of pastries, fresh fruits and cereals were available. The lady bringing around the coffee, no pots per table, was very attentive. I asked if we could have a cooked breakfast, but was told this was not in the price of the room and that she could make some toast. Beautiful little village, lovely people, a tad noisy. I think the hotel could do with a bit of an overhaul as the public areas, the stairs ad in general we’re not very clean and a tad tired. Lovely bar maid in the evenings though.

We visited in April for an evening meal. It's clearly a very popular pub as it was extremely busy during our visit, nevertheless service was prompt & efficient and the staff were friendly & helpful. The food was tasty & filling. It was thoroughly enjoyable. We would definitely recommend and return.

We’ve had some delicious food in Burford but this was undoubtedly the best. Great portions, great menu, great ambiance and friendly, helpful staff. They were dog friendly and had a treat at the bar for the dogs. It was the last meal of the holiday and we couldn’t have asked for better.

Set on the High Street in the centre of Burford. We booked online a few weeks prior as we thought it would be very busy on a weekend in high season. Lovely menu choice of both food and wine. Service excellent and the food was well presented, tasty and hot. We had the lamb shank and the lemon & thyme chicken for mains followed by the Panna Cotta and the Lemon Cheesecake. All excellent - the greens served with the mains was just right too. Recommended!

Dog friendly pub/restaurant Excellent food and service by Teigan Well informed about by granddaughters dairy allergy and brilliant gluten free options Last meal in the Cotswolds as returning home following day so made a lovely end to the holiday

Don't let the name put you off, this is a lovely, old, quaint and picturesque hotel in the middle of Burford. The room was a bit small and lacking in hooks behind doors, surfaces and storage, but the bed was super comfy and everything in the bedroom and bathroom worked. The bar and restaurant are welcoming and attractive. Teagan and Chlöe looked after us with charm and friendliness. Don't miss the museum opposite the hotel, and if it's still working, go on a guided tour starting from there at 2pm on Sundays.

Teigan was wonderful to us. She was very friendly and chatty. She made our visit very enjoyable and the meals were great. We would definitely come back.

We were passing through purely by accident - as luck should have it we found ourselves in a lovely friendly & welcoming pub - we had our little dog in tow & he was made especially welcome with doggie treats & fuss - we ordered...

We really enjoyed our dinner here. The shrimp salad was delicious as was the vegetarian pie. Highly recommended!

Our group had a wonderful experience at the highway inn. All our dinners were delicious and our servers Teigan and LeAnn were fantastic. Went out of their way to make sure we had a lovely experience. Thank you

Had the butternut squash soup and prawn salad for dinner and the chocolate brownie for dessert. One of the best meals I had in England! LeeAnn and Tigan gave us outstanding service!

Lovely food with a great atmosphere. We’ll be back with our extended family. Also dog friendly. In the heart of the Cotswolds.

Uninspiring neither from the outside, nor from the bar area, the restaurant itself turned out to be quite decent. The tiger prawns in chili sauce with sesame seeds were excellent, the lamb shank in a pie with carrots, peas and spinach was very good and...

If you want to be spoilt by amazing food and an excellent chef then this is the place to go. We treated ourselves to an over night visit, the room was a perfect cotswold stay. Rebecca is so welcoming and professional. We often visit for...

Had a good lunch here as we passed through Burford. Food was all good and the service friendly and efficient. We had a nice window spot perfect for people and car spotting. Would recommend.

Every single moment amazing. Staff so kind, helpful and attentive. Beef roast dinner the best we have ever eaten! Beautiful place ❤️

Good beer, good banter, friendly staff with fast service spot on food what more you. Be off back again

Stayed for one night in one of the attic rooms which we booked direct. We were told to mind our heads as some parts of the ceiling were low! Check in was speedy and there was tea/coffee and bottled water available. As previous reviewers have...

After a terrible day of travelling in the heat and being stuck in traffic, Burford was the ideal stopping point. No reservation, so we were a little bit hesitant, but we were greeted with a smile and a laugh from the barman Shannon. The food...

We came here for lunch and had delicious sandwiches with very generous fillings plus the Parmesan and truffle chips, yummy. Staff lovely, do recommend!

Never fails to impress. Delicious food and wine with great service. The scallops and lamb shank pie were fantastic. Would definitely recommend!

Our second time here and the food was superb again. Not trying to be fancy but doing everything brilliantly. We didn’t have dessert (too full!) but they looked as delicious as the starter and mains tasted. Great, friendly service from every member of staff.

We were staying the night here, so decided to eat in the bar/restaurant. We both just had the fish and chips and it was first class. Possibly the crispiest, tastiest batter I've ever had, really hot and freshly cooked and it was a cod loin...

I love a Sunday roast and (if I do say so myself) I cook a mean Sunday roast. This, however, gets problematic when going out for a Sunday roast, as what I’m served is so often disappointing. Happily, this was not the case for the...

Really lovely stay in this very pretty town. I booked a courtyard room as a few reviews had said the rooms at the front can be a bit noisy. However, I would book a bigger room at the front next time as ours was a...

We had a lovely time dining at the Highway Inn for dinner with friends. We were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere by the friendly staff. The scallops and duck were absolutely incredible! We will certainly be visiting again.

We had lunch here and it was phenomenal! We had the muscles and softshell crab burger both were amazing and the muscles were the best I have ever had, the favour combination and seasoning were spot on, absolutely delicious. I think we will probably stay...

We went here on our first day staying in Burford for a meal and enjoyed it so much we booked it again for our last night there. We enjoyed the ambiance, the staff were so friendly and the food looked and tasted lovely.

Super friendly and lively staff two young girls Tony & Chloe fantastic at their job and make you so welcome. Mum Leanne was also very professional and super friendly a really credit to the hotel , bar and owners. Highly recommend a meal their also...

Come here on a regular basis and always a very warm welcome from the lovely staff. Mixture of tourists and locals visit and all are well looked after. Good selection of beer and ale and the food is great.

Booked for a special New Years Eve dinner with our two well behaved dogs. Staff were all amazing and very professional. The chef deserves a round of applause for producing such fantastic food. Ten out of ten 👍

Straightforward pub grub, but fresh ingredients, attractively presented, tasty, and in generous portions. Good local beers, and reasonable wine selection. Cheerful service.

We stayed here for one night in one of their dog friendly rooms. It was all very comfortable and spacious, and the staff really were lovely. There was a slight problem with the bathroom not being cleaned - the sink encrusted with soap and an...

From 1st contact to make our booking, through arrival, and service a really relaxed and great experience at The Highway. Staff were friendly, accommodating and generally superb. Beautiful food, generous portions and great wine. An amazing kick off to our pre Christmas weekend away! Thank...

Many standard pub dishes but excellently executed and gluten free. For example the venison terrine was really good and for once came with a decent amount of toast. Why are other places so stingey with a cheap ingredient like bread? I don’t think I would...

The Highwayman is an historic pub with great food and warm service. We absolutely loved it. We sat in the bar with a view of the High Street. The staff shared some of the pub’s history. A great meal in this quaint village was a...

My friend and I enjoyed a really lovely lunch stop. I ordered the crayfish tails in lemon butter served with parsley mayonnaise on a soft, toasted brioche roll with skin-on fries and my friend had steamed Cornish mussels,Hawkstone cider, chorizo and sage served with baked...

We stayed at the Highway Inn for 3 days in October and enjoyed it immensely. Rooms were wonderful, full of English country charm, and the food was superb. We especially enjoyed our time in the pub interacting with our fellow patrons, especially Hector, a huge...

Ancient coaching Inn offering better than average home cooked food. Friendly atmosphere and has a good selection of beers.

We came as a big party for an evening meal and the staff were so lovely and did everything they could to look after us! The food tasted amazing and came out so quickly especially with such a big table! Would definitely return here!

We have just returned from a last minute overnight stay at this hotel. All I can say is - what an absolute gem! My wife and I wanted to stay in a character pub in a typical Cotswold village and this certainly ticked all the...

We stopped in here for a drink first as they had a nice bar/dining area and the beers were interesting. We liked the friendly service and look of the menu so we stayed for dinner - although they were pretty full they accommodated us on...

Food was fine but half way through eating it a couple sat at next table with 2 large dogs that were very close to us and doing what dogs do. It is a dog friendly place so can't complain too much but there were other...

Absolutely superb. A lovely setting, great food and top-notch beer. A great stop-off when travelling from west to east.

My husband and I had an impromptu meal stop here and I'm so glad that we did. The inn is very characterful with a choice of rooms to dine in. We had a window seat which was lovely. We both chose the braised lamb salad...

My husband and I enjoyed two delicious dinners in this delightful pub/restaurant that also has rooms. Simon and his staff couldn't do enough for us. We enjoyed the first meal that we had here so much that we cancelled our booking in a different restaurant...

Absolutely delicious food, friendly staff and clean facilities - what more could you want?! Looking forward to a return visit to sample more of the menu! If any establishments need a lesson in delicious food and reasonable prices then they should look no further than...

We really loved the Highway Inn - so much in fact that we came back again and had another fantastic meal. Burford is a lovely spot - the gateway to the Cotswolds - and lunch here was the perfect start to a great holiday. Excellent...

Have just had a wonderful family meal at the highway Inn. The team taking care of us were lovely and the food was incredible. Had the steak pie off the specials and it was demolished in no time. The sticky toffee pudding with home made...

We booked this pub for our first nights meal with a group of friends. Sat in the back gardens while we waited for our table. Very friendly staff. The menu choice was good and everyone was more than satisfied with their choices. We were under...

Just returned home after yet another lovely stay…. A different room this time but with the same ambiance and design quality we have experienced on our previous visits. The food never ceases to amaze, delivering professionalism, value and excellence every time. I really recommend this...

We had a lovely meal here, the staff were very friendly and food was delicious, with the most amazing triple cooked chips! Our dog was welcome in the bar and we enjoyed sitting in the window seat with a view down the picturesque Burford high...

Found the Highway Inn through Tripadvisor, and checked out its menu. Seemed like just the thing after a longish drive, and we were not disappointed. Very friendly service, imaginative dishes beautifully presented, and very reasonably priced. Would definitely go again.

I don’t like the table benches that they have out front, and I don’t think they reflect the quality of the food and drink. The courtyard is much better. The menu had a slightly more than average number of vegan dishes and it’s always nice...

Very nice and hospitable place. Nice to sit and chat to other travellers in the enclosed courtyard - it was too hot to sit at the many tables at the front of the building. Nice Hawkstone lager/beer.

Staying in Burford overnight, we went to Highway Inn for a good lunch as we were at Blenheim for a concert later, so wanted a more substantial lunch to keep us going. We booked in advance, and was glad we did as was looking busy,...

Stopped here for lunch only wanted small snack so decided on a starter which crayfish and salmon caviar cocktail on rye bread. Absolutely delicious, generous amount more than we expected and probably one of the best starters I have ever tasted. The pub was lovely...

Stopped for lunch when passing through. First class food and service at a very reasonable price. Centrally located in Burford with plenty of on street parking. The menu was particularly innovative with quality ingredients.

Best place to eat for miles around by far! My husband and I found this gem a few weeks ago. We’ve lived locally for 5 years and never been here until recently. The quality of the food is probably the best in the local area....

I went to the Highway inn today for a meal and a few drinks with my friends. This place exceeded all expectations, the food was great and the live music was brilliant, made for an even better afternoon not to mention the pimp your prosecco...

We popped in for dinner and we’re greeted by lovely friendly staff, found us a wonderful table in their front bar. The food was not only incredibly tasty but presented so beautifully too. Staff were helpful in answering questions, checked on us making sure we...

After a journey from the Royal Free Hospital en route to Malvern , we stopped of for a break , requiring drinks only, on entering the main bar/ restaurant/ sit down area, we were approached by a member of staff , asking us about eating,...

Back in Burford for Jubilee weekend, and popped in to the Highway for a quick drink this afternoon and ended up staying for the live music - which was fantastic! As always, the staff were so friendly and welcoming - and I have to admit,...

Me and my partner came to celebrate our 5 year anniversary with a lunch at the highway. We both had fish and chips, and it's the best we've ever had! They even had live music for us to enjoy whilst eating our food, it was...

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal in the Dining Room. Staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful, lovely atmosphere and delicious food. Would definitely recommended dining here and would choose to revisit if ever in Burford again!

We had an excellent and interesting meal here. Some unusual menu choices not the normal pub fare. I had a main course with crayfish and was surprised to find how much crayfish the dish contained. Staff were good, and helpful, and efficient. For beer drinkers...

I’m writing this review as I tuck into last nights left overs! Generous portions and far too good to leave a single bite! Very resourceful and accommodating chef and lovely waitresses made a lovely evening out with friends! Thank you the Highway, we’ll be returning!

Picturesque Village. Great Food. Great Beer. Great Ambience and friendly people. Place has a long history and we know it’s namesake in …… Hawaii.

Great hotel for our weekend away, quirky trendy rooms with modern stylish bathroom. Staff were very helpful and gave us tips for lovely walks, things to see. Had dinner in the restaurant and the food was amazing. Definitely coming back soon.

Beautiful food and great service. We visited on Saturday of the Easter weekend and it was so busy in the area in the day. We popped in with no reservation and was accommodated anyway. Lovely ambiance

Visited on two evenings during an Easter holiday break and had lovely meals both times. Second time we were in the main restaurant area rather than the quiet back room and this was much nicer.

Booking was easy and the pub was warm and comfortable. The service was great and very friendly. The food was yummy and plentiful and they had a good selection of veggie options. I would definitely go back and would happily recommend.

We really enjoyed our meal here on Saturday night. Place was cosy, staff were friendly, the meal was really tasty. Big portion sizes. We were made to feel very comfortable here and would have no hesitation recommending this restaurant to other people.

Met up with my sisters and Mum for a late Mother’s Day lunch. The food was excellent all freshly cooked and beautifully served. The staff were Very attentive. Prices very reasonable. Thank you for a lovely day

We had a delicious three course meal during a recent stay in Burford. It was very reasonably priced (less than £70 for a three-course dinner for two) and the service was rapid and friendly. Would recommend the focaccia and olives to start, followed by the...

Took my daughter for a Mother’s Day treat and so glad we chose the Highway Inn ! We had the roast beef with all the trimmings and it was absolutely amazing 🤩 one of the best roast dinners we’ve had ! Had room for a...

What a great find! We were looking for a dog friendly place to eat after our trip to Bourton on the water and this was recommended by a friend. Did not disappoint. The staff were incredibly friendly as soon as we entered and even gave...

We fell upon this lovely warm welcoming restaurant. Lovely staff and absolutely delicious food with the added bonus of being seated next to a gorgeous open fire. Higly recommended, we will be coming back. Tip: book before arriving for dinner especially on Fri-Sun

A family meal had been arranged at long distance for my husband's 80th birthday. We were provided with a room downstairs to ourselves. There were fourteen of us including children so we appreciated the space. We were provided with privacy, music and fantastic food. The...

We are staying in beautiful Burford for 5 nights. We booked ourselves into The Highway for dinner on Friday evening and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Then after a nice walk on Sunday morning we wandered into The Mermaid for lunch but they lost our order so...
