Very charming place to rest on your visit to Oxford. We only had a good coffee, and it cost us less than at the London train station.

Restaurant with a small menu, the seasoning is good, the portions fair. They only accept payment by credit or debit cards. It has clean bathrooms. The staff is friendly and they prepare your drinks at the moment.

Completely amazing everything, specially people extremely kind and honest. After a delicious meal one member of our family forgot his bag pack with passports and money and the staff found it and everything was inside. They have saved the tourist time in England. Well done all stuff members of Vaults & Garden best wishes, blessings and hugs. We hope buck in a future. Many many many thanks.

When I visit first, I liked this place. So I introduced here to my friend, and ordered avocado toast. However the server gave us the broken - two parted - toast and then said ‘oh the bread was broken’. What a bad experience. Personally, even though the food is great, if the server is unkind, then I will not go there.

I love this place and visit it every time I visit Oxford. The food is wholesome, and tasty like rustic home cooked food. There is a range of full meals or smaller items. You can help yourself to water. You queue and give your order to someone behind the counter. The staff are always friendly. At times it can feel a bit overwhelming because it is small and busy but once you have found a place to sit and eat your delicious food it is well worth it.

Lovely little nook in the basement of an old church. One of the coolest places in Oxford location-wise to have a meal. Food is tasty and reasonably priced. I’ve enjoyed the carrot and red lentil soup, vegan Oxford breakfast, and fruit scone. Given that the vegan breakfast is the same price as the non vegan one and has food taken out (e.g., eggs, sausage), I felt like it could have included more of the beans and veggies. My portion of beans was just a handful of beans. But flavor wise it was delicious. Especially the bread! Their homemade scone was also fantastic. Drink-wise I tried their teas and chai latte and did not find them great. Service is friendly but unhurried. Prepare to wait to order, and if you’re in a hurry, avoid lunch, especially around noon.

Vaults is such a cute and quintessentially Oxford cafe and their outdoor area has a great view of the Radcliffe. Proper decent portions of old school cakes and food here and decent coffee.

I've been here a few times for scones, and it's always a treat. Every time, business has been booming. The relentless crowd ensures an energy that works well in the space, even if it can get a little noisy. The service is hit-and-miss. They have staff who are on their game, and others who it seems couldn't care less, but this, for me isn't a dealbreaker. Love it! Also, I heard they may be closing down? Noooo! Don't do that!

I’ve been here a couple of times and each time has been incredible!! Their food is delicious and homemade, the perfect place to find warming comfort food this winter. The staff are also super friendly and really make the effort to attend to your needs. Also, as a full time barista I can confidently say they do some of the best coffee based beverages in Oxford, my favourite being their mocha which is super rich and creamy (I wish I knew how to make a mocha this good!?). Their prices are also very reasonable, their service is fast and they manage to maintain a very clean space. I’d highly recommend paying this stunning and historic place a visit.

Good Food | Exquisite Location | OK Service | Recommended —— Detailed Review Below —— Caught up with a dear friend on campus and we ended up at this place after looking at a few other options. The ambiance is (obviously) unbeatable, with the high ceilings and the historic building. The inside dining area can get crowded but thankfully we went on a day when sitting outside was still a viable option. I had an avocado toast, served with salad, and my friend had the Oxford Vegan (which looked fantastic with the avocado toast, the sautéed mushrooms, and the giant (white kidney) beans. My coffee (flat white), however, was disappointing, because (1) it was lukewarm, and (2) the milk was not microfoamed well enough. Verdict: Recommended - both for the experience as well as the food but be careful with the coffees Food/ Quality - 4/5 Location/ Ambiance - 5/5 Price (Value for Money) - 4/5 Service - 4/5 Other (History - 1320 Bldg) - 5/5

Since the tragic demise of Boswell's cafe, this has become my 'go-to' venue for a pot of Darjeeling and, what would appear to be, home-baked cakes!

I went on a trip to England! ・Fifth day after arriving in England ・A cafe with beautiful terrace seating that I found on Instagram ・I was like, ``Let's go there if I can!'' But since I arrived in Oxford early, I went there for breakfast until my reservation time at Christ Church. ・It was sunny and there weren't many people, so it was really great. (Although it was cold 🤣) ・The library is right in front of me, so it's nice to have breakfast in Oxford while looking at that building. ・There was a breakfast menu, but I couldn't take it that long so I had bread and coffee. ・This open-faced sandwich is heated up in the store, and it was really delicious... (Croissant 🥐 of course) ・It was so comfortable that I could stay there forever ☺️ / I will introduce details of the trip in the story 🇬🇧💂🏻 \ 🔖Date and time: September 2nd around 9:00 AM 🔖 Staying time: about 30 minutes 🔖Access: Approximately 20 minutes walk from Oxford Station 🔖Menu: ☕️American £2.60 🍽️Croissant £5.80 🍽️Open sandwich £6.20 →Total approx. ¥2,800

I dropped in when my walking tour ended outside the entrance on a blisteringly hot day. It was lovely and cool inside and had plenty of room on the communal tables. I was totally spoilt for choice as all the food looked delicious. I opted for the slow cooked tuscan beef which had a choice of sides alongside a glass of organic red wine. The beef was really tender and the sauce very tasty. I finished with a cappuccino and the homemade cakes looked divine but I resisted. The staff were smiley and very friendly and it was a thoroughly lovely lunch stop, highly recommend.

One of the only places in Oxford where you can get a proper meal in a casual setting! I have food intolerances to dairy and eggs, so when I go here I often get the vegan option. It's always very delicious & filling. I also like that they have jugs of water you can take to your table. Whenever I do the Abingdon to Oxford walk, I go here and drink lots of water and eat a big meal. The food is always really quality, non processed. That's very hard to find in most cafés. I was so sad to see the church they rent it from want to close it down and open up a different Cafe. This one is perfect! I always bring friends here & it's great for healthy eating.

I have to give 1 star because at the end of our drinks and cakes this morning, sadly and disgustingly there was a human nail in the bottom of my iced coffee. It was truly horrifying and vile - it was a greyish/blue painted nail, acrylic or real I wasn’t too sure but it made me feel sick nonetheless. The team at the till refunded me but I have no idea what reprimands were given, as the culprit of the nail amongst the staff would be easily identifiable. It also made me doubt the hygiene and cleanliness of this establishment entirely.. go with caution!

Visited today for a swift drink after punting. We received a very frosty reception on arrival as we were in desperate need of the toilet first. The manager on duty assumed we were taking advantage of the facilities and that we weren't paying customers. The toilets were filthy, there were bad food handling practises- ie. Staff handling food and then proceeding to touch their faces and till, without wearing gloves and the overall atmosphere was frosty.

An interesting take on the Full English Breakfast. There’s a reviewer somewhere who said that this was the best breakfast he had ever had. Inspired by that, I thought I’d give it a go. I ended up being disappointed, which was a shame because the venue and the service were excellent - I can only hope that the rest of the menu is better. Firstly, the FEB shouldn’t have anything green on it, a single asparagus spear doesn’t belong and seems an expensive garnish. One sausage , one slice of bacon and half a tomato seems parsimonious, add to that butter beans (!) cooked in chopped tomatoes and mushrooms with a curious extra flair of what seemed to be Worcester sauce , and things were getting unusual. There wasn’t a choice of eggs offered, it’s scrambled and that’s yer lot. To be fair, it wasn’t pretending to be a Full English, it was a Full Oxford, so I guess Oxford palates are more forgiving/sophisticated. Don’t go expecting anything other than a dish ‘inspired’ by the FEB, you’ll be fine: my wife’s smoked salmon on sourdough with (yes, scrambled) eggs was serviceable, the coffee and tea was good and service was cheerful, welcoming and prompt. It’s just that wasn’t close to the “best ever breakfast” I was expecting… it was just …….. “interesting”
