The Tite Inn in West Oxfordshire

very lovely pub, with a cosy interior. good selection of drinks, alcoholic or not. service was great, granted it was a quiet evening. food portions were massive and the fish and chips were great!

Sadly ours was a disappointing experience. No one goes out to eat wanting to write a bad review but in this case I have to admit that we were taken aback by the lack of usual expectations. The waiting staff appeared rushed and unavailable and only came if we called them! Our lunch was lukewarm when it arrived and we had to wait for cutlery, water and wine( which weren’t offered to start with! The menu was quite bizarre with just 4 choices which were roasts. No starters, bread or desserts. What kind of a restaurant is this? Large selection of vegetables with our roast but mostly very undercooked and cold! We left feeling quite confused by the whole experience .

Stopped in for a drink and some chips both of which were great. The atmosphere was great and they had an adorable pub dog that my kids loved petting. They also have a playground in the back so my kids were able to play away while us adults enjoyed our drinks.

After visiting Didley squat decided to visit a local pub for lunch found The Tite Inn. It was a great find lovely staff great sullection of ales and best of all as it being Sunday the great British roast the only thing my wife is gluten and dairy free so unfortunately no yorkshire(I did) but a brilliant meal . Thankyou.

This is a fantastic pub. We stopped for Sunday lunch as a walk in. The lovely waitress showed us to our table very promptly. They advised there would be a wait as they had a big table in. However the waitress spoke to the chef and squeezed our order in within minutes of being seated. The roast was excellent. Plenty of meat and lots of vegetables. The cauliflower cheese was especially good. All in all a brilliant experience and lovely, friendly staff.

Wow what a fantastic place to come. Chose it off Google as was meeting family halfway and contacted them beforehand to check about GF options (they have loads by the way). The customer service from start to finish was faultless. The food was varied and tasty - portion size very generous too. We really enjoyed our time. Our little one recommends the play area too! It’s located in a really pretty spot and has plenty of parking. Wish we lived closer but will find a reason to come back!

We waited an hour between starter and the mains coming out. One main was sent back as the Duck was overcooked, the other three meals were heavily salted. When we questioned the glasses of wine being £17 each the staff became agitated and very rude. I can see now why they’ve brought a consultant in to sort things, it’s just a shame he’s so condescending and rude. “This is billionaires paradise” was his reply when justifying trying to rip us off. We weren’t shown a wine list but checked online and they’re around £7 so The Tite Inn are definitely chancers trying to rip people off with poor food and dreadful service

We came for a birthday meal to celebrate a 22nd. The food was absolutely gorgeous. We had the special which was duck and also the sirloin steak. We cannot fault the incredible chefs, who presented us with beautiful, fresh food! The customer service was some of the best we have ever experienced, with special mentions to Charlie and Gary who made our visit even more incredible. One of our party has a gluten free diet, and was incredibly well catered for! We even learn that the chef himself is celiac, and he has created some beautiful options for those with dietary requirements. The restaurant itself is stunning, great location, beautifully decorated and has lots of car parking. I would absolutely visit again and highly recommend this to anyone.

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff but waiting over an hour for food is a bit ridiculous especially when not at full capacity. Not worth the wait really. Fish and chips was a 3/10 and nothing to shout home about however the BBQ wings on the starter menu are amongst the best BBQ wings I’ve ever eaten 11/10. Worth it for that alone, saved the day!

Fantastic place, ideal for coeliacs as pretty much everything (including the chef) is gluten free! Beers on tap from local brewery also gluten free and delicious. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Great little find on way back from Diddly Squat Farm Shop. Good food and ale. Staff engaging and friendly

Nice pub and the food was very nice pictures attached . The service was friendly but very slow. We waited hour and 20 mins from arrival until starters came out and it wasn't busy at all. We weren't in a particular rush but I feel it's a factor. Setting very nice.

Fire a new chef or at least hire a chef what a joke of a meal

Very beautiful place. Would come back again:)

Asked for lunch menu, the rude goat at the bar said, “ no chef today no lunch”. Travelled 50 miles for this abuse. Seats and ambience awful we will never go again nor should you ever think of going. Better you have a root canal than deal with this over sold horse feathers venue. Prof B M CBE

We booked in advance and were really looking forward to Sunday lunch, and at £25 for the adults portion,we expected good things, Unfortunately this was not the case, the beef was extremely hard to cut and tough, the vegetables were hard and not very hot at all, The pork came out with the skin like chewy rubber with no attempt to crisp into cracking, No salt and pepper on the tables, and no accompanying sauces offered, when I asked for horseradish and apple sauce, the waitress said I'll have to ask the kitchen, On return saying they don't have apple sauce, although I did manage to get some horseradish sauce, They seem to be missing some of the basics here, The table next to us were having the same frustrations and lots of food wasted, I noticed another table near the bar had left rather a lot of there lunch also, My childrens were the smaller roasts and lots was wasted, We decided not to have a dessert simply due to the quality of the main courses, Very disappointing, I'm not sure what's happened as the reviews were good, Won't be going back

Very welcoming and friendly Lovely Pub with original oak beams beautifully kept and immaculate it has a huge garden and even an unobtrusive children’s play area and car parking. First rate beer brewed locally and excellent food Couldn’t be improved very impressed Will certainly revisit next time I am in the Cotswolds It’s in Chadlington which is the epicentre of Clarksons farm and Kalebs home village I believe .

No kids pizzas, no mussels, no trout, no burgers, no pork belly. So much missing from the menu made this dining experience hollow. Food took too long to come and was underwhelming. Average service with little character and totally under staffed ! Would not come back again for lunch. Drinks could be enjoyed in the nice surroundings. Great as a beer garden but totally disappointed as a restaurant

Went today for lunch the ignorant bar staff simply said, “chef did not show up no food”. Having driven 50 miles not best news well delivered. The outside seating is not comfortable and the staff rude. Give it a big miss. Prof BM CBE

If you want to not get involved in the que for the farm shop, the I strongly recommend a visit The Tite, great food very reasonably priced.

Lovely food, great place for lunch

A delightful pub, the outside area was amazing.

Fantastic pub with a luxury feel that effortlessly crosses the boundary between a country boozer and a posh restaurant. The large garden with sprawling lawns are entered through the canopy that feels like it should be from a Kenyan safari. Expect VIP's too, this place is Kaleb & Gerald's local!(Clarksons The Farm)

Never been before, doubt we’ll go again. Turned up late, around 13:45 and it looked lovely. Bar staff were really polite and helpful. We asked if they were serving food and ordered drinks. We were advised that yes, food was being served and were directed outside to the serving station in the garden, where a server would help us. After waiting for 10 minutes, the server abruptly told us that we could not have food as the kitchen closed in 15 minutes and she had just put in a large order for another party. No apologies, no sign of any regret. Perhaps if she had been quicker, we could have eaten. It must be nice for a business to be doing so well that they can just turn potential customers away. As it was we left, disappointed and hungry.

Good was average! Service wasn’t great. Considering this was first day open (closed Mon and Tues) half the menu wasn’t available. Girls stood chatting the behind the bar, no one else left in the area we were in so not busy but sat there for ages with dirty plates wanting to order a dessert. Gave up in the end and went to the bar to pay. £90 for three main courses and 2 drinks (son drank water) and I had an appletiser so only one of the two was a pint of beer. Overpriced for average pub grub!

A great pub, but please book in advance if you want to eat there.

What a great little find! A lovely little proper pub with their own beer, great food and it’s 3 mins from Diddly. Went twice two days in a row! Rib eye good, chicken tenders for kids are good quality. Wasn’t busy either time but I’d say with a good crowd there’s a great vibe.

We visited Diddly squat farm shop but did not want to queue for hours to enter the shop or wait for food. The Tite inn is advertised at the farm shop exit which makes it surprising more people do not venture down to this lovely secluded pub. The owners daughter who worked behind the bar was very polite and friendly. The food made from locally sourced produce exceeded expectations and we highly recommend the steak or burger but defiantly start with the warm bread and olive oil. All in all a lovely family operated business and very affordable.

visited this pub twice as we were staying close. the barman doesn't know what he was doing. sitting outside with the locals, I have never overheard such racist bad language. didn't really expect this from a country pub in the cotswolds.

Unfortunately, we cannot confirm the good reviews that attracted us here. The really beautifully laid out beer garden was completely empty except for one other table and there wasn't much going on inside. So the kitchen shouldn't be overwhelmed. Nevertheless, the ribeye steak came burnt (was on the black side) and the burger fell apart and was anything but juicy. The waitress also seemed bored and probably didn't enjoy her job much. It's a real shame - because the location is really great!

We don't really go out all that often, however after not being to the Tite Inn for 4 years I thought we'll give it a try. I must say the food was nothing to write home about and microscopic. We had 2 what I would call mini burgers and fries with a ceasar salad (3 people) The burger was totally anemic and all you get with it is chips, no salad, coleslaw, onion rings or anything else you would associate with a decent burger. To pay £18 for that felt like a fleecing and left a bitter taste in my mouth. It honestly felt like I was paying a massive fine for taking my family out after a long time not going out due to the cost. Even my wife complained about the portion size of the ceasar salad which she finished, and that is unusual for her to do at a decent restaurant. To walk away with a £60+ bill for 3 small portions and 2 juices seems excessive! Unfortunately you won't see me there again unless something drastically changes. Honestly I don't mind paying for quality but that was not it. Ill stick with the local here in Charlbury called the Bull. They have decent portions at the same sort of prices.

Lovely village pub with a nice selection of drinks and although I dis not have a meal the food looked very nice indeed and very reasonable price

Good food Excellent staff Nice garden All in all, top quality, which it was 😃

So disappointed today. We've visited a few times as we like the pub and have always had a great meal. Unfortunately today the Sunday Lunch was awful. It came out cold, sent back to the kitchen and came out not much hotter and all dried up. The Beef was so tough and chewy we couldn't eat it. The girls behind the bar were lovely, very professional and were very apologetic.

Yes, this is in an idyllic spot, but the food was pretty dire. Chicken burger was dry and tasteless, and my fish and chips was burnt to a crisp. Having had a wonderful pub lunch the previous day, this was extremely disappointing.

Lovely little country pub which we visited after diddly squat farm shop. Great atmosphere and doggy friendly.

What a stunning pub with a great outside area with stunning views, staff where really welcoming and friendly but the food was unfortunately dreadful, what a shame! I couldn't advise going to eat but if you want drinks its fantastic.

Do you guys know Jeremy Clarkson?

Fantastic meal in a brilliant location! Loved the pub and garden and my daughter loved the play area! Would highly recommend a visit and we shall return! Great service also from the team.

Amazing service from staff , lovely roast dinner will be back !!! Lovely cocktails and friendly staff , thank you !!!!!!

Food ok, extremly slow service.

Young girl at service counter looked bored/ uninterested and was on the phone when we arrived. Went to sit at the table and found a large footprint on the chair, so had the change it out myself. We asked for a glass of champagne but only Prosecco was available, so did not match the menu. Menu had limited options and lacked any originality. Ambiance was noisy with loud bad music. Not impressed with the didley squat farm lout overspill coming into the back garden shouting. I wont be returning sorry, it's just not good enough as compared to other good pubs in the area.

Called in for a beer with some friends. Beautiful place with decent beer for me. Really nice outdoor areas and friendly staff. Nice location would recommend

Fantastic place highly recommended, outside area exceptional.

Great country pub with friendly service, nice food and beautiful quiet setting

Excellent Sunday lunch and a good pint of Guinness. Staff pleasant and helpful. Lovely country pub in the village of chadlington.

Dreadful food. Really bad. Roast beef was sooo over cooked and chewy it was so poor and we could eat it , the dessert was meant to be crumble but it was like watery soup vile, photo attached. Staff spent most of the time in the kitchen area. Such a shame because it's a stunning pub with fantastic facilities in a great location

Dreadful food and service. Staff spent most of the time in the kitchen and service was bad, we felt very unwanted . They had so many dishes not available on the menu so the kids only option was Mac n cheese. My husband and myself had the roast beef, big mistake! Beef was so burnt and chewy we couldn't eat it. For £25 for a roast dinner I expected it to be not only edible but high quality, sadly it was not. Still hungry after not eating the beef we ordered the crumble for dessert (safe option as you can't mess up a crumble!) ha...wrong! Worst crumble I've even had couldn't eat it . It was like eating purple watery soup, honestly could get my head around how bad it was. Such a shame as the pub itself is in a fantastic location and the facilities are beautiful. Ruined a fathers day meal out :(

Fabulous decor, great outdoor area, slow service and poor food. So disappointed had sea bass and gnocchi - tasteless and the gnocchi were like bullets. My friend had mussels which were overcooked and in a harsh tomato sauce. Really disappointed as the environment/ decor is lovely.

Beautiful garden and grounds, great place for quiet and uninterrupted conversations! Easy parking and lovely staff x thank you 😊

It would be nice to know in advance that the kitchen actually opens at 18:00. We arrived at 4 pm and they had nothing but drinks It is not that difficult to add a few lines about food service , isn't it?

Lovely little pub for a glass of wine or a pint 🍺

The service was excellent and the food was okay.

Fantastic place to eat and relax. Food was of the highest quality, service was very good, and they have fantastic seating area outdoors with a children's play area. I gave 4 stars overall because we were waiting almost an hour from the time of ordering for our food to come out, and they forgot a couple of items that were sitting in the kitchen going cold.

Visited the pub on 27/5/24 at lunchtime when the pub had only just opened. I ordered BBQ Chicken wings and asked for a side salad, however i was told they had run out of salad. My friend ordered a burger with fries. When the food came my chicken wings were swimming in a sloppy coleslaw at the bottom of the bowl, my friends burger came with salad ! As we started to eat a small slug came crawling to the top of my bowl. I removed the slug to my serviette. I was horrified. My friend quickly took my bowl and serviette back to the serving point and asked for the Manager. A young girl came over & she was confused as to where the slug came from. We explained what had happened & she still couldn’t take responsibility. She said it could have climbed into the bowl from the table as we were sat outside. It doesn’t make sense that there wasn’t any salad when the pub had just opened, maybe they had found slugs in it or it was found in the coleslaw mix. Wherever it came from, it’s not acceptable. It took us 4 requests to actually agree to not paying for the food. We were not refunded for the drinks. No apologies. Since this i have emailed the pub & all they can say is they are not responsible & offered me to go back with my friend for 1 drink each. Sorry, i shall never be returning to your pub as I have been put off eating there & really wouldnt enjoy drinking there either. Also, i have never received such poor customer care from a company who are obviously in the wrong & could not take responsibility. THIS IS ANSWERING THE PUBS RESPONSE BELOW:- One can only assume that the slug was an acrobatic slug that could jump from the plants in the distance to a 3 foot high table surrounded only by concrete slabs, all in the space of three minutes!!…. from me noticing the slug crawling around my slimy purple cabbage dripping in what I can only assume was mayonnaise.. in my bowl. Again, I find it totally incredulous the lack of concern , empathy for your customers who are out on the bank holiday wanting to sit down, relax and enjoy a lovely healthy meal. Instead you prefer to take the approach of denying all responsibility and insulting your customers intelligence. We had to ask you on several occasions what your intentions were before you eventually offered a refund for one meal then when we mentioned we had taken a photograph for our own information, your attitude changed totally !!! You said you would refund the two meals that had hardly been touched after we placed the order due to the fact that it made my friend & I feel quite sick! I am sure the environmental health would take this a lot more seriously after we’ve shown them the picture we took also would be appalled at your approach towards your customers. Hopefully this will be a lesson learned on your duty of care towards your customers!!!

After a visit to Diddley Squat Farm, I decided to grab some lunch at the nearest rated pub. We arrived at the scenic Tite Inn and was greeted by friendly staff. We ordered the fish & chips plus a burger and chips. After the best part of an hour the food arrived. The chips were burnt and dry and so was the fish. The burger was dry and was combined with a sweet relish that did not suit my taste palate. Overall, the pub was lovely, but let down by the food. I may have been unlucky because on the day a multitude of dogs would not stop barking.

We came here on recommendation from some locals for a late lunch but were turned away saying they were fully booked. There were a number of tables empty inside, all of the outside was empty too, we could stay for drinks though and sit anywhere. Not sure what was going on, the mixed messaging was confusing so wasn't a great experience at all.

Visited here after going to Diddly Squat Farm. The staff were very friendly. We sat in the beer garden which was well kept. Food and drink was lively and well priced. Would recommend to all who are in the area.

Great little cozy country pub with a relax outdoor area

Just arrived for lunch at the Tite Inn and they have virtually no food to offer. They have the cheek to ask for a credit card in order to book a table. We will never ever come back to this pub,absolutely appalling.

Very smartly decorated inside and out.

Lovely pub with lovely gardens. However, we waited over an hour just for our starters

Polite but incredibly frustrating place to order food

Update your opening hours wasted journey

Stopped off here just because the local farm shop was too busy. What a find! A lovely village pub with a good beer and spirit selection, the staff were also friendly and helpful. We did not eat here, but the food looked and smelled good. I would like to come back here and try an evening meal.

Lovely pub amazing out door area and has a little play area for the kids, would love to go back in the summer.

A lovely little pub, however we were disappointed that we were served pitta breads for our “starter” flat bread. My husband’s rock hard tomato was sadly returned to the kitchen after eating his well cooked steak. Out of politeness for the staff (who were extremely professional) we paid our bill and left, in hope that this beautiful establishment can invest in better menu choices for the next visitors.

Philip Schofield at the bar attempting to purchase a Toblerone and some Toilet Duck, it's a public house, Phil!!

Great country pub. The food was lovely. The Staff were very friendly and accommodating we had 5 dogs which wasn't a problem at all. We decided to enjoy the outside space under the canopy. Thank you

Fab pub wonderful beer garden with the most elaborate tarpaulin, great kids play area, super friendly staff.

Nice cosy pub, great staff and free wifi

Aptly named. The heat was off and it was freezing. We left for a warmer pub without eating.

Had a nice gammon and egg with seasonal vegetables very quiet Saturday afternoon

Lovely cosy warm place. Very friendly staff made to feel very welcomed

If you happen to be in the area, for example visiting Diddly Squat Farm maybe then a stop off for a bite to eat and a pint at The Tite Inn is well recommended. The food is exceptionally good, with service to match in a nice pub with ample parking.

Lovely atmosphere and great service. Vegetarian option was a bit over cooked and dry, also I had to pay extra for vegetables on the side. My friends had their veg included 😡. Please could the manager consider this: vegetarians like vegetables and will hoover up every last sprout or whatever. Please don't discriminate against them.

What a wonderful little pub! We booked here for our Christmas meal for x19 of us and everything went down without a hitch. It was so easy to organise everything with the managers and they were very accommodating. The food was presented beautifully, tasted amazing and came in very decent sized portions. We were very impressed with all the extras including the extra roast potatoes! The mini mince pies at the end were such a lovely touch. And all of this for a very reasonable price! All the staff were very friendly and welcoming and looked after us so well. Highly recommend!

Lovely pub, welcoming service, good local beers, nice food selection with a varied menu. Some portions seemed a little too small for price point to what you got - some of the food seemed to be more brought in pre-made to be cooked but with prices of made in house.

We had a lovely lunch with a large group of friends. We all had roasts including the veggie option which was really tasty too. Service was great with a nice atmosphere. Some great wines & good beers too. Definitely recommend here for a Sunday lunch. Also must mention the crumble, loved it. We’ll go again soon.

Very disappointing. Well named the Tite Inn. Beer at £5.50 a pint is at least a pound dearer than most local pubs. My peppered squid were O K but the portion was tiny about 3 mouthfuls ! Iwon't be retuning and neither will my friends be comig

We called in here for a light lunch after visiting Didley Squat Farm shop. The pub is linked with the nearby Chadlington brewery, so I tried a pint of their I.P.A. which was a very tasty, hoppy beer. We had some squid rings with a gremolata coating, scampi and fries with an especially tangy tartare sauce and creamy garlic mushrooms on toast with aged parmesan. All these dishes were very tasty and the perfect size for a wee bite of lunch.

After nothing much to see Diddly Squat Farm (lol) we popped up the road and found this little pub. Well presented, dog friendly quaint place, we decided to have a quick lunch. We both chose the burger that came with chips abs baconaise, although a little on the small side given the price, we couldn't fault the quality and level of service, experienced. We would definitely return, if we are up this way again....4/5

The place is cozy and nice. The food was probably the most overrated food that I’ve ever had. The burger had the size of a happy meal at 18 pounds , burnt and blunt .Should have sent it back but was too hungry . Taste the the ales before having them.

When you last name is Tite you need to stop at the Tite Inn for a meal. Stopped for lunch today and it was delicious.

Great meal with the family. Great local Ale on Tap ( sShould be as they own the PH) I'll be back , but most definitely on a Date night.

Lovely food! Great staff! The beer garden is wonderful and cosy with the heaters! Highly recommend!

Very poor Sunday lunch, over cooked, too much oil, dry, expensive. Couldn’t cut in to the potato’s, carrots and parsnip black.

Lovely little pub in the heart of the village, great local beers and fantastic food. Service was excellent

On arrival we were greeted by friendly staff at the bar and chef sitting with some locals. Decor looked cosy and tidy but where we were seated considering the restaurant side was empty, it wasn’t appropriate. Some of the locals were rowdy and swearing a lot so not the scene of a couples dinner. Food came out very quickly which was good but presentation was poor. Almost seemed like the chef was hacked off he had to cook so just plonked it on a plate. There was more rocket on my dish than there was steak. Really poor food that you would expect at a much cheaper venue. Really not impressed. Filet of steak expected at the price they charged. Student cooking. Edible but not what you serve in a supposedly established country pub/restaurant. Spoilt a birthday meal out for my partner. If the food was better, this place would be awesome as it looks great.

Beautiful location, well-kept property, easy parking, great and comfortable decor, warm welcome from hosts knowledgeable about local area, great selection of food and drinks.

Called in for a weekday lunch. Short menu but extremely well done: excellent, high quality food, good beer and lovely pub and garden

Classic country Inn with super garden areas. Spotlessly clean, good ale, friendly staff and tasty food. Will go out of my way to eat here again when I'm passing.

Not impressed with the lunchtime menu. £16 for ham egg & chips is ridiculous. I ordered a starter instead at £12.00 which was giant prawns in curry sauce. Some people might really enjoy curry sauce with prawns but it's not my personal taste. I ordered without but asked if l could have garlic butter to which the answer was no. In fairness the prawns were giant and reasonable value. Staff are pleasant enough but just do their job no real interaction. We went to the pub 3 years ago pre-covid and had a wonderful lunchtime meal, so thought we we try again as we were passing by. Very disappointed

Discovered it by accident and glad we did. Great location, extremely helpful and cheerful staff and fab food..

We visited on the evening whilst staying at the near-by campsite. The pub is in a lovely setting and is well maintained. Staff were welcoming, polite and helpful. The pub offers it's own beers and a choice of food, which was cooked really well. Minor criticism is that the prices are on the slightly heavy side, but then everything is these days, and you are paying for location and convenience.

Nice pub with lovely garden. Play area for the kids and local beers on offer.

They had lots of open tables when I arrived, I asked the server for a seat and she said she would come back for me to go order a beer and she would get me. I drank half my beer saw her come in and out of the bar 2 times and never looked for me. Finally I ask the bartender for a table and he said to sit at any open table. I took the table just outside the front door. Seating was nice other patrons were nice. Took some time to order. The fish was not very good, greasy, very limp and not very tasty. I was hungry so I ate it

The food and service were both impeccable. The staff made sure we had everything we needed as soon as we walked in, they helped us select food items from the menu and generally made us feel welcome. We were able to relax, laugh and spend time together as a family while enjoying delicious food and a comforting atmosphere. I highly recommend this pub/restaurant to anyone looking for somewhere in the area!

Staying locally, had a superb meal , a warm welcome in a great pub, nothing to much trouble, and good selection of food and drinks, team were also very attentive

Auténtico y original pub para autóctonos en el que se sirve una excelente comida en un decorado tradicional dentro de una antigua casa de piedra. Muy recomendable si estáis cerca de Chiping Norton
