The Three Pigeons Inn in Cherwell

Great breakfast and service in lovely pub.

Welcoming inn. Reasonable beer. Purity gold on the day. Lovely historical feel to the comfortable interior.

Decided to make our first ever stop over in Banbury with a view to taking Jorvic and Paulicarus to Oxford tomorrow. Banbury has lots of pubs to try out and the Three Pigeons took our fancy with its thatched roof, low beams, large inglenook fireplace and central location. Three rooms available. No breakfast but tea, coffee, porridge, biscuits and cakes in the room. Lovely bedroom with en-suite well sheltered from the road noise but they do overlook the beer garden should you retire early. Look out for three pigeons on the thatch! Only two real ales, if you include Doom Bar but also Warwickshire brewery Purity. Had a taster of their Gold. Free Wifi available. Arrived on Flying Ant Day! Happy hour starts at 5pm.

Lovely stay, worth any penny. Great room, great staff, perfect location, and amazing 17th century building.

From outside it looks like one of many pubs, but ... once you get in a nice surprise awaits you. Really quirky place with with very friendly service. It is a very old building, that is why tall people must watch heir head to low ceilings :-)

Decent pub on the edge of the town. Always seemed fairly quiet.

Stayed here for the weekend, the room was fantastic, great atmosphere. Will be coming back next time I'm in Banbury.

Amazing hotel in Banbury. Tina and her colleague were extremely nice and welcoming. Recommend 100%

Friendly staff, great vibe affordable pints

We stayed in this historic Inn & Pub for 2 nights and had a wonderful visit. Our en-suite was very clean and pretty. The bed was comfortable, and I fell asleep right away. Linens and towels were of a high quality. It is within walking distance to the historic Banbury Cross and the historical area. The Manager was delightful and so helpful in recommending places to see and directions. Sulgrave Manor and Broughton Castle are only a short drive away. Take note of the pretty thatched roof and the cute little stone pigeons on the top of the roof. Charming! I would love to stay here again.

My uncle arranged for my sister and me to stay here, we loved the rooms we were allocated, they are beautifully decorated and the attention to detail is fantastic - even providing an additional mirror in front of the window, which was great for doing your make up in. The room was lovely and warm in a cold December night, with an extra blanket. There’s a fan if you’re warm, they’ve really thought of everything! The lady that checked us in was really friendly and a us feel at home. The Inn was very quiet after 11pm. The bathroom is gorgeous, I had a bath and it was so relaxing, it felt like being on a luxury getaway. I’d definitely stay here again!!

Great place, lovely staff, superb location. Mind your head tho

Met up with long lost friends here as it was relatively central to where we all live these days. We drove and managed to park in their car park, and others travelled by train and were able to make the short walk from the station. Staff very pleasant and attentive and looked after us well. A couple of decent beers and the food was well cooked and presented. Would recommend if you are in the area.

Very nice. They are not offering breakfast.

Rich was the most helpful bar tender I've ever met he helped my whole table get the correct pints( he goes to RGE and he is blonde)

Very enjoyable visit excellent hosts lovely breakfast

Stayed here for 1 night and were really happy with it. Staff were really welcoming and friendly, room was a decent size, well appointed and clean. Bed was comfy. Free parking on site. Only slight negative was that the room was a little too hot for us and we couldn't find any way of turning it down, but some people will find that a positive!

We had read the reviews and the reviews for The Three Pidgeons were extremely good especially Sunday roast. It looked like the best place in Banbury, however were bitterly dissapointed. We went for lunch on the Sunday after Fathers day so thought it would be quite and they would have time to give us their full attention. How wrong we were.The service was appaling. The young girl took our order and brought our roast meals we had ordere and . that was it. She didnt ask us if we wanted drinks or if everything was alright.We had ordered a jug of gravy which didnt turn up but was charged for. The food was mediocre but what was unbelievable was that the roast potatoes were cremated. Totally unedible and should never of been served.Rock hard and looked like coal. There was no one to complain to at the time as there were no staff anywhere.

Lovely Sunday roast for Father’s Day , never been here before but the customer service pre arrival was excellent as we pre ordered our food. The food was fab and portions very generous none of us finished our meal! Would definitely return

Had a lovely Sunday roast today, the food and service was great, will definitely be coming back again soon.

Sad circumstances brought us here for a one night stay, but our choice of accommodation has been spot on. Convenient location, ample parking, quaint, atmospheric, buzzing public rooms, spacious, comfortable bedroom and en suite and, to cap it all, the staff are absolutely wonderful. From the initial booking to the reception to our evening meal (good pub food at decent prices), we couldn't have asked for bigger smiles or better service. Thank you, all.

Nice friendly pub with comfortable rooms, courtyard beer garden (could do with a bit of tidying) good location for a wander in town. Stayed in room 2 and in the morning as my gf was pottering around I heard someone say ‘help me’ ‘help me’ ‘help me’ in a very clear voice, I’d say a young lady but couldnt be certain, thought my gf had left her phone on something playing in the background but it was turned off. Turns out the staff hear things all the time!

Friendly welcoming pub. Food is excellent I have had a Sunday roast which was excellent value. The pizza is good value and really good. Also good quality music.

Really nice restaurant and pub lovely surroundings very friendly staff on this occasion picked the prawns/chilli with sambuca with soughdoe bread and probably one of the best starter's I've ever had ,the main meal was really good as well but be warned that the Haddock is very big

A beautiful pub that is clean , cosy , warm and friendly we only had time for a tea but will return and recommended already . Make sure you visit this place you won’t be disappointed.

Haven't eaten here in a while but booked up and really enjoyed the food very rarely do it have 3 courses glad I did ,great service with one of my favourite surroundings from a local pub

Look no further for a spectacular Sunday roast! We were squeezed in at the last minute, friendly staff and a cosy pub atmosphere. We both opted for the three meat roast and it was beyond delicious! The gravy, the yorkshires, the veg, tender meat.. every bit was delightful. Thanks again ☺️

What a gem! The room was high quality an absolute treat. The welcome was warm friendly, the pub itself is beautiful. Spotless warm just absolute quality.

We had a one night stand in Banbury. The 3 Pigeons is ideal. The price is good for the excellent accommodation provided. There are plenty of evening eating places in town & for breakfast you won't get any better than Waitrose, a short walk away, or Wetherspoons for less oney!

I'd been recommended this place so duly booked it and checked in. Only initial gripe was some slightly too loud 'dad-rock' music playing as the pub itself was empty, but it never became an issue. The room itself was fantastic, with a big, comfortable bed, a sofa and a desk to work at, with a very nice bathroom. I was unaware it didn't serve breakfast but I'm hardly going to waste away so it wasn't a problem for me, they do leave you some porridge and pain au chocolat if you're peckish at breakfast time.

We only popped in for a drink but the menu looked absolutely amazing so decided to have a bite. Really good friendly service and amazing food. We will be back again!!

This was our first excursion into a restaurant since lock down as one of our party is diabetic. They were very COVID aware and even though they had a limited menu being a Sunday and we sat in the bar area by the doors (which were open), we felt safe and well looked after by the amazing wait staff.The food was excellent and the staff couldn't be more helpful and all Covid measures were taken. We would recommend this restaurant if you can get in as they are only allowing limited tables. Enjoy.

I have been going through Banbury for some few occasions and have had lunch at the Three Pigeons. Always been excellent. Went recently and they have stopped the a la carte menu at lunch time. Lunch menu was very poor. Three or four types of burgers. Only about four other items. Staff and service was good. I enjoyed their local beer. A la carte is still available in the evenings.

Was visiting Banbury on a Sunday morning in August, and decided to try and find somewhere to have lunch before heading back up north. After a quick look on trip advisor, I thought I'd try The Three Pigeons Inn. Gave them a quick call, and a very helpful lady booked me in for 12:30. On arrival, I had a good choice of tables, and liked the dining area in general. Decided to try the leg of lamb, and I wasn't disappointed. Absolutely beautiful meat, perfectly roasted in my opinion. It came with roast potatoes (goose fat I suspect), roast root vegetables, a Yorkshire pudding, broccoli, cauliflower, and gravy. It was a satisfying and good sized meal, but after a breather I decided to go crazy and try a dessert too - in this case, sticky toffee pudding and custard. Again, really tasty. The whole meal was up there with the best for me.The only thing that equalled the quality of the food was the friendly and efficient service. Everyone I spoke with were excellent, but I have to say a particular thank you to my main server - Brennan. My friend, that was practically faultless service - thank you.I will be back ! :-)

How do you try to forget the annual reminder of the ageing process? By having a beautifully cooked meal served by friendly, charming staff. The scallops were "off the chart" and the steak was cooked - as they say - "to perfection". I really think this kind of establishment deserves our support, especially in these tough times. You can feel the love in everything they do, which makes everything feel quite effortless.

After reading the reviews on the Sunday Roast, the girls and I thought we would give it a try. Whilst the service and staff were great, we unfortunately couldn't say the same about the Sunday Roast. Beef like leather, roast potatos with zero flavour and dishwater gravy we were all disappointed

I stayed with my friend in July 2019 on a girls weekend. The room was beautiful and the service was excellent at the time. We stayed in the bar until the early hours chatting with the lovely friendly staff - great atmosphere and good prices. I would highly recommend this accommodation. **I lost my Fitbit and didn’t realise until we had gone back home to York. I emailed and they said they’d let me know if they found it. I had since replaced and forgotten about this. Until a phone call from the manager last week saying they’d deep cleaned the room and found it!! He posted it up to me for free as long as I donated to a good charity cause. (I donated to the local food shelter) I am absolutely blown away with this superb level of customer service. We’ve saved the hotel address and we plan to return here as soon as we can. AMAZING!!!! Thank you. If I could’ve given it more than 5 stars I would have.

Delicious food and very attentive staff. The food was exceptional. We called in for a drink during the day and after seeing the menu, we decided to eat there and it was wonderful

We met for a ladies' lunch. The pub was quiet and comfortable and the service very friendly, if a little slow. Not a problem as we had lots to catch up on. Baguettes came with chips and cole slaw and the sharing vegetatian mezze dish was tasty. We were surprised, though, to be charged an extra 75p for a couple more slices of pitta bread. The puddings were delicious and it was a pleasant, leisurely meal. A nice place, but watch for the extras!

On our way to London and needed to stop somewhere to eat. Happy to have found this cosy pub. Welcomed by friendly attentive staff who enjoy hospitality and serving customers. I had chicken with avocado on granary bread and my husband had the battered fish with tartare sauce in a sandwich + coleslaw and chips. YUM! Generous portions too. Can't fault it. Looking forward to returning soon.

First visit to the 3 pigeons and was incredibly impressed. The staff are lovely and so friendly, the local crowd were really nice and the atmosphere is very relaxed and cheerful. The food was absolutely stunning, the best I have come across in Banbury I think. Very happy with our evening and will definitely definitely return.

I know Banbury well. Highlights are sparse, but this really is one. We stopped over for a night with a meal. Very friendly staff, chatty and fun locals, excellent beer, and a very comfy room. Lots of history there too and it was quiet and restful even given it's very central location. Highly recommended for a different boutique stay, away from the same old formula hotels. Good breakfast too. We're local now and will certainly use this for visiting reli's.

Lovely atmosphere.Friendly staff.Nice comfy bed.Tasty steak.Excellent breakfast.Great building.Would stay again.

Went in for Sunday dinner for a birthday celebration. Lovely welcome, very attentive staff and upon hearing this was my mums birthday she was given a drink on the house. The Sunday roast was very good and we will definitely recommend and return. Really enjoyed and thank you.

We had Sunday lunch, roast beef was delicious with a good selection of vegetables. Lamb burger looked and tasted home made. Parking is limited but if you request a space when making your reservation they will reserve one for you. Good wine and beer plus plenty of iced water. Friendly, helpful and professional staff.

You have been hiding your light under a bushel! I’ve driven past you every day for the last 19 years but it was only yesterday when I was on foot at luncheon and feeling a little peckish popped in to see what was on offer. What a delight! My scallops followed by a ribeye steak were glorious. But even they were surpassed by the little touches that separate the men from the boys: fresh ginger grated into my ginger beer was most agreeable. Nobody has ever tried to talk me out of a blue rib eye because of the potential for uncooked fat in the steak. My plate was completely clean and jolly good it was too. You have a very knowledgeable and thoughtful chef. Thank you. With food of this quality and the proximity of Majestic Wine it was surprising not to see any clarets on the wine list. I shall return.

This was a pre-Christmas family meet up, with dog, and a varying range of ages, appetites and dietary needs. All were met with friendliness, good service and excellent food. The vegetarian options were delicious, alongside the more traditional meat dishes. Lovely ambience - altogether very good. We have been here several times and it does not disappoint.

We were directed to this charming pub as the place we knew of couldn't offer a meal or a bed for the night. We were lucky to be offered a magnificent room, warm and very comfortable. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant and a very good breakfast the next morning. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.I highly recommend this place.

Went here for my daughter's 30th birthday and was totally fantastic we received amazing service from fantastic staff in wonderful surroundings the food was excellent I really can't put it into words how good the evening was thankyou so much for a wonderful time

I came here with my mum for lunch at the end of November. It was quiet so we had no problem finding a table. The welcome was friendly and the service was good.

This evening l met up with old friends to catch up and exchange gifts before Christmas. My dog Alfie had a treat and water from an off duty member of staff before l'd even ordered the drinks! A lovely, friendly waitress called Niamh took our drinks order and helped us to our table as we were loaded up with gifts. The bar was very busy but the staff were attentive and there was a cheerful Christmas atmosphere in this quaint pub. We'll definitely be coming back!! Thank you

Our table was in a dark corner with poor lighting. Had to hold the menu in all sorts of positions to read it !!

My husband and I went to the Three Pigeons for Sunday lunch - WOW what fantastic tasty food. The presentation is really lovely too. Very friendly. professional and informative staff who know their menu.

We were taken here by friends for an evening meal......a favourite place of theirs and I can see why. A restaurant with a lovely atmosphere . Plenty of choice on the menu, food cooked and served well and the staff were knowledgeable about the food. Good choice of wine/ beer. Thank you, and hope to return on our next visit to Banbury.

I had the pleasure of staying here while in town and I absolutely loved it! The room was very big and comfortable and the staff was so friendly. You just let them know what time you would like breakfast and it is ready for you. I felt so special when coming downstairs in the morning to have a table set for me and then my breakfast was cooked fresh to order.

Meeting old friends, we chose the Pigeons for a dinner. Food, service (Kelly), everything was meltingh into a pot of lovely evening! Oustanding food, better than at previous occasions!

2 nights booked well in advance , phone call to cancel our table for 1 night, because of large party. Having stayed on 3 previous occasions very disappointed. Won’t be going again

We have just had a lovely evening meal here. Food and service were excellent. Very pleased to find a good restaurant in Banbury after years of searching. Will definitely visit again. Thank you.

Absolutely fabulous. Pub has tons of interesting history, wonderful welcome from owner, gorgeous, eclectic pub with a ton of character, interesting selection of ales on the hand pump, great dinner and breakfast. And a bed that I had difficulty getting out of but well worth it as the Full English scored highly. And so close to canal for an enjoyable pre-dinner amble

Just been to the three Pidgeons for Sunday lunch. Firstly it wasn’t very warm in the pub,doors were left open asked for the heating to be put on if possible that didn’t happen.

Really good beef roast dinner, absolutely loved the banana parfait and peanut butter pudding : really delicious!

Stayed for one night. Was a lovely room. Near to town for bars and restaurants. Was nice and quiet. Bed was comfy. Breakfast was the best. Delish

I stopped in at the Three Pigeon's Inn for dinner because I had seen it driving in to Banbury but also heard from a local the food is delicious. Well…..IT IS!!!

Pleasant Dove Cote room althoiugh starting to look a bit shabby - they could try accessing the bath screen from the standing posiiton side and get at the brown dirt.

Very expensive for a sunday lunch. I had the lamb which was quite fatty. Vegetables were too small a portion. 3 roast spuds were good and nice gravy. £35 for 2 roasts and 2 cokes

A lovely place to stop for a drink or a meal. We had a wonderful meal here. Everything we ordered was beautiful.

The Pidgeons is an attractive, thatched pub set at the edge of Banbury town centre. It's a rambling old pub with several areas and good deal of character and a pleasant courtyard garden to the rear. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. There are three handpumps with a couple of Purity ales plus the ubiquitous Doom Bar. Definitely a food led venue, the food is very high quality, freshly prepared from an excellent, interesting menu and I chose the Pan Fried Seabass with Baby Vegetables (£18.50). The fish was beautifully cooked with delicious crispy skin, and the rest of the meal was very well prepared too. Whilst the food is certainly not cheap here, the reason I have given a low rating for value (and 4 stars overall instead of 5) is not due to price but the rather skimpy portion sizes, particularly the vegetables. They do take the word 'baby' in the context of vegetables quite literally - about four or five small carrots and the same number of the most miniscule pieces of broccoli immaginable. As someone who enjoys a hearty meal, I was left wanting more vegetables - a lot more! Aside from this, one could attribute the word 'faultless' to this hostelry.

This is such a beautiful pub. Full of character with a great vibe. O had the best roast dinner for my main and the chocolate mousse for desert and I think it is one of the best meals I have ever had! The meat was so tender and the even the veggies were super tasty. Fantastic service and great food. Would highly recommend everyone to come and try the food here or even come for a drink! Great atmosphere.

Recommended by a friend who lives locally, we paid our first visit to The Three Pigeons tonight and it more than lived up to expectations. Warm friendly welcome from staff and superb food at the right price

Visited on 10th Aug and once again, superb food presented. We have been attending a music festival for 10 yrs in Cropredy and always make sure to have a treat by eating here during our visit. Every time the food is bang on, with nice eating environment and great service. I had scallops and pigeon that were amazing as ever. My companion had a mozzerella and tomato starter and special house "pie" that was a whole new take on how pies should look and taste. Prices very reasonable for what you get and I only give it a rating of 4 as I suppose 5 is really for Michellin Star type places. They are not far off and for a pub, this really is as good as it gets. You wont be disappointed.

This was a great find whilst on holiday! Arranged to meet someone for lunch, but they were delayed by traffic. Whilst we were waiting we had lovely starters and main courses. They kept the kitchen open as long as possible for us, and when our companions were delayed further, they made delicious hot sandwiches which were kept warm after the kitchen closed and so were still most delicious when our guest arrived. The real ale is good too. Thank you for looking after us. I'll come back if I'm in the area!

Lovely pub with great food and drink. I stayed for a night and the room was very nice with a great shower and comfortable bed. Great WiFi and although the pub is on a cross road it wasn’t noisy inside.

We had a wonderful experience in this very well run establishment. All the food was excellent management and staff very happy, friendly and helpful.

Oh what has happened it’s getting worse the staff are the worst and rude of ever seen they can’t even say please chip on shoulder and owner no idea takes on any staff that are cheap

Fantastic surprise. Quality service, food and drinks. Looks like a pub, it is a pub... but it is so much more. Definitely recommend for lunch or dinner, and save room for dessert. No doubt we will return next time in Banbury.

Schöne und saubere Zimmer mit tollem Garten und Pub. Sehr zuvorkommend, persönlich und freundlich. Tolle englische Küche. Sehr zu empfehlen.

A group of us went here to celebrate a friends birthday

I attended yesterday with our coach stopping off on the way to ascot. I hit my head off the ceiling then I thought I was seeing things after a freddy Mercury look a like serve me a breakfast while wearing flip flops,

This was a return visit to The Three Pigeons and we found it every bit as lovely as before. The food is fabulous, not cheap but worth every penny. We will certainly be eating there whenever we're in Banbury.

The place was nice and food was good, not sure I would call it La Carte. The service was good and staff were super friendly. We sat in the side room which was super dusty and the windows above clearly needed a good clean (I would not normal mention this but if you sell yourself as La Carte you should go the extra mile and at least make the surrounds clean)

I stayed overnight at this Inn to break my journey. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and made me feel very welcome. The room was beautiful - large and very well appointed, with a comfortable sofa and armchair. The one downside was that there was a strange noise, as if a fan was constantly being used. Upon checking this, I was told that it was the extractor fan noise from the kitchen, which would stop once cooking finished for the evening, which it did. The evening meal was very good and I didn't feel awkward being a lone traveller. Unfortunately, breakfast was very disappointing. I had little time, so I opted for cereal and toast with coffee. I had originally asked for fruit and yoghurt, but was disappointed to find that it wasn't stewed fruit, but just whole fruit (apple, orange, kiwi, bananas) put into a bowl to choose from, with low-fat yoghurts. There seemed to be no full-fat option, and I don't eat anything with sweeteners. The coffee was undrinkable due, I think, to the strange water. To be fair, the owner/manager did offer to make me another coffee with filtered water, which I declined. Also, to be fair, it could be that the cooked breakfast would have been wonderful.

We have eaten here a few times before and it been very good. Unfortunately, this time was very poor and we won’t be back

Four of us ate here on Fathers Day, we have normally had very good service and food here however today was a let down especially on a special occasion. We had booked a table in advance and when arrived this was not ready. We were shown to a table in the bar. It was very slow service to order drinks and food. Once we received the food it was of good standard. We were not offered any further drinks during our meal and tried to order deserts but gave up. We were informed 2 staff members had not turned up. When asked how long it would be for desserts to arrive once ordered we were just informed they didn't know. As waiting staff were so busy when delivering food to tables they ignored everyone else who wanted to order. I understand it is not ideal when staff don't turn up but atleast apologize for the delays. We gave up trying to order dessert, our plates were not collected after half an hour of us finishing so got up and paid at the bar. No apology or discount offered. Shame as this is not the standard we have come to expect here and put a taint on father's day celebration.

Visited last night, the worse meal I’ve had there I’m sad to say. Ordered fillet steak, how can you get that wrong? The steak had not been cooked on a grill , it was boiled? Turned up a pale lump of meat. Rocket all wet and wilted, tomato dry, chips hardly cooked, white and hard, definitely not twice cooked as advertised. Bad night for the chef or a sign of things to come? I have a table booking in July for a group for Sunday lunch, not feeling confident and may cancel. Need to improve for the sake of your great reputation. Won’t be ordering steak again

On Sunday 16 June we booked a table for 2.30pm and pre-booked our food. On arrival we witnessed absolute chaos at reception/bar with people trying to check into rooms and also arrive for their table bookings. 10 minutes after arriving we were told where our table was and when we found it another group of people were sat there, leaving us just stood amongst other eating customers. With only 3 staff working on an extremely busy day we just kept being told ‘give us 2 minutes’. At 3pm we decided enough was enough and walked out as there was no prospect of us getting a table any time soon. Whilst stood waiting we heard one man complain there food didn’t all come out together and some of them had already finished, a table of four got up and left as they had waited over half an hour to order desserts, another table of 3 had their sauces/gravy brought out while half way through their dinner. The whole experience is so disappointing as we have always had great food and great service in the past. To make matters worse, as it was Father’s Day, we couldn’t find anywhere else to eat! Not quite sure what it will take to entice us back any time soon! I’m not quite sure what has changed but if you want to stay open, you need to sort something out sooner rather than later

We ate here on Father’s Day as a family of four. The pub is very nice and cosy with lots of stone and beams. Our table was nice although it hadn’t been cleaned very well as it was sticky to the touch.

We decided to come here for our Fathers Day's Meal after being highly recommended by family.

Had our first visit last night and after a little bit of confusion to find out if we needed seated we were sorted.

Having spent a few days at this hotel recently, we had a wonderful experience in this well run establishment. All the food was excellent and really enjoyed the Full English Breakfast. Enjoyed good night's sleep as all the rooms overlook the quiet rear courtyard.

on a busy crossroad, the three pidgeons is passed by many travellers in their cars that have no idea what this fine inn as to offer good well-kept beers and ciders and a great range of excellent value for money food served in lovely surroundings

It seems this property has just changed hands and if our experience was anything to go by it does not bode well. We have as a group of people been going there for 4 years being a geographically central point for us to meet. I travel from Hove. The food apart from one point was fine but service appalling. We had a complaint about a hair being found in a starter dish and instead of apologising and replacing it the owner/manager came back and said it wasn't the kitchen so it must have been from one of us. Hair was black and for us grey and white heads not likely. Service SLOW AND SLOW. 2 main courses arrived 10 minutes after the rest (pasta). Coffee and tea service (and getting the bill) appalling. We told the manager all this so didn't just mutter among ourselves. Will not be going back.

Booked one nights accommodation whilst visiting Banbury. Asked for a quite Room, were shown to Room 1, initially looked nice, however on closer inspection the room needed a deep clean. Carpet, chair all stained and marked, tops of tables in both bedroom and bathroom marked, only one set of toiletries per two people (£130 per night!) Broken ceramic holder and toilet seat in the bathroom very unhygienic.

The best roast dinner in a long time !!! Beef and my husband had lamb , the best roast potatoes and gravey it was all cooked perfectly!! Worth a visit ! Will be back ! Thankyou

Stopped in while lost asking for directions. We had also missed eating since breakfast so were also looking for somewhere to eat since it was after 4:00 and the kitchen was closed. The chef, Adam, overheard our conversation and offered to make us something!!!! The food was great but not as much as his positive overture. At the same time, Lucy lent a friendly ear and helped us with finding a good room in the area since they were totally full.

We experenced beautiful hospitality and great food. This must be the best place in Banbury. The cook must have been a magician. Thank you!

My partner booked a room here a few days before our stay and we weren't disappointed. We got there in time for dinner which we weren't sure we would do. We were firstly welcomed and shown to our room which was lovely. Came down for dinner which was excellent. I had sea bass and he had a lamb pie. Both cooked so we'll and extremely tasty. Waitress was friendly but not in your face. It was so nice to have a lovely meal with drinks and be able to relax knowing we didn't have far to go afterwards. Would definitely go back if we find ourselves in that part of the country again

Great, great food. Outstanding. The waitress was friendly, easy going yet professional. The Landlord was really nice but hanging around me a little too long; pick up the signals and let me be!

My husband booked a surprise Mother's Day meal for the entire family. The food was amazing from the roasts to the desserts, toffee pudding was a real treat and we received good service. I had heard a lot about the Sunday roasts (they are to die for) from friends and family and the place was pretty full too. The Manager gave us a history of the place when my husband asked. We have booked a big table for next month as got my family around from Canada. We all went home happy.

I booked a table for 4.30pm for 5 adults and a five year old child for a family meal to celebrate Mothers Day. We ordered our meals as soon as we sat down at our table. At 5pm the childs meal and one of the adults meal was served. The waitress mentioned that they had had a bit of a disaster in the kitchen but didn't explain what. At 6 pm the remaining four adults still hadn't been served their meal. There were no explanations or apologies. At 6.15 pm, we decided to walk out, as we were all hungry and the child was getting tired and starting to cry. We all went home with no food. The staff saw us leave and still didn't offer any apology or explanation. This makes Faulty Towers seem like 5 star. I will never recommend this place to anyone. It must be under new management, as we have eaten there in the past and everything has been fine but I am disgusted and our Mothers Day celebration was copmpletely ruined. . .

Went for mother’s day waited for ages and walked out lots of people complaining new management no idea
