The best restaurants in Cherwell South East

Excellent restaurant Excellent food We visited on the worst day of the year, and immediately we were greeted with smiling friendly waiters/es. We could tell how good this place is, because all the guests seemed to know the staff. Food was as hoped for. Could not finish everything, but the doggie bag was well received on returning home.

Estamos en ayunas de carne y lácteos, fue refrescante tener un restaurante con buena comida, servicio relajado amable. Disfruté mucho de los platos indios que nunca había probado antes (no suelo ser fan de la comida india), pero en esta ocasión no pude obtener suficiente de ella. Según mi amigo indio los platos eran realmente tradicionales no solo platos populares sino platos caseros. Me encantó la experiencia. Y muy bien decorado, buen ambiente tranquilo y relajado.

This restaurant exudes a wonderful relaxed atmosphere. The food is remarkable; freshly prepared, varied, interesting, delicious, unusual, generous, spectacular and filling. No room for dessert. We have already booked again. Oxford has a lot of franchise, chain, dull, me-too restaurants. This is not one of them. A genuine original find.

Really perfect Staff was really nice Food was perfect, especially the beef fillet with good portion. To be discovered

Wow the people here are so delightful. We were lucky to find this cafe amongst many others that did not look as inviting. The toasted sandwiches were superb, the rolls equally delicious but best of all were the home made cakes. Bonus- excellent coffee served in beautiful cups and mugs. Wonderful cafe.

You are greeted with a lovely warm welcome and offered great advice regarding the menu choices. We were on our way to West Bromwich to watch football and normally stay overnight local to that area and always have a curry as it’s our favourite food. But as I had lived in Bicester over 40 years ago had decided on this trip to stop and reminisce and also try a local Indian restaurant. Based on the fantastic reviews we settled on Srishti’s Kitchen and what good fortune we had as the food was just wonderful. We spent a few weeks in India last year and I can genuinely say when she advertises authentic food she 100% hits the spot. The food is fresh, tasty, delicious and straight from the stove to your table. What more could you ask for …..simply wonderful and already on our itinerary for our next trip…..it’s a pity the kitchen isn’t based at the village as we could combine two wonderful experiences Lovely to meet you. Thank you for your hospitality Kieron and Trudy.

A very friendly Greek and Mediterranean eatery, welcoming and family feel. Souvlakis, either with chicken or pork, are our favourites.

A very pleasant coffee shop. Full of character staff are very good. Coffees served in unusual glasses but somehow it pretty cool. I had a gingerbread chai latte which was beautiful. Will come again. Thank you

We visited Veeno today for lunch. We had the best meal and we’ll certainly be back. I can’t believe we haven’t discovered this gem before. We had garlic bread and pizza, both of which were the best we’ve ever tasted. They came with olive oil and balsamic dip which was gorgeous. They also gave us some truffle oil to dip the pizza crusts in which was soooo good and different. They had a huge selection of wines and their house red was delicious. I had to have a second glass 😋. Can’t wait to return to try more of their menu. Thank you for a fanatic relaxing lunch x

Took my kids here for lunch yesterday - we had the falafel wrap and hallumi wrap and some vine leaves. The food was delicious and lots of people around us seemed very happy with their food. The smell of the charcoal grill added to the experience. We would recommend. Only downside, was not a great selection of drinks....

We had to wait till the man who cooks dinar to come, as the woman who was there could unfortunately not prepare our coffee and hot chocolate. Inexperienced and staff with bad attitudes killed the day.

Fantastic jacket potato! Had chilli and cheese - lovely! Always met with pleasant chatter and a smile. Thanks Curly!

Great staff lovely bacon baguette and sandwiches

We've been in three times now to Visit and Taste and have never been disappointed. There is a good range of drinks and the Polish food on offer is fantastic - well cooked, flavoursome, healthy, and warming. We've had zurek, pierogi, stuffed cabbage, goulash, and potato pancakes - all delicious and always served with a smile. A must visit if in Banbury!
