The best restaurants in Banbury Grimsbury and Castle Cherwell South East

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.

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

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....

Anywhere we go we order burgers, abroad or UK it's our go to food. I can easily say, with a hand on my heart- this is in top 2 best burgers we ever tried , absolutely amazing. If these guys make it into a burger chain I will not be surprised.

Went to bishops bakes for the first time a few days ago - it was insanely good so decided I would order an avengers themed birthday cake for my nephews party.(the cake was phenomenal and my nephew loved it tasted amazing too) Jess and the team are quick efficient and so helpful and friendly. The store is amazing and it’s so lovely to see a bit of colour up parsons street. Decided I would try the ham bagel 🥯 and it didn’t disappoint needless to stay I will be a regular visitor…..

Been there for years and came all the way from USA and had to stop by to have one. Haven't had one since I was a kid and we all loved it! Appreciate Curly's personality!

Looking for somewhere different to celebrate my birthday with friends rather than the usual Indian or Chinese restaurant's, I suggested V&T. I have been to Poland and tried many Polish foods, so not a problem for me. All of my friends were "Apprehensive" about trying Polish food. We ordered a variety of different foods and everything that we ordered was eaten and thoroughly enjoyed. A couple of friends have said that they would definitely return. It's a small restaurant, with very friendly staff, they also serve some good strong polish beers! I have given V&T a 5 star rating for the quality of their food and their friendly service.

Glad I found this place ideally located near Banbury train station. I enjoyed my veggie burger and slush and an extra thanks to the owner for providing a warm welcome to a weary traveller.

We visited here as we needed lunch and we were walking past so we thought we would give it a go. WOW, we had the lamb mint pasty and it was easily the best pasty I've ever had. I can usually take it or leave it with pasties as I'm not a huge pastry fan but I'll definitely be going back for another of these, the staff were extremely pleasant too! PERFECT!

Fabulous. So hope they do well. Freindly and welcoming staff. The icecream sundaes we had were delicious and very good value for money. My husbands strawberry sundae was packed with fresh strawberries. A lovely place to go. Well reccommended.

Really chill vibe, and great cocktails for a super reasonable price. Worth a visit in its own right, but also a perfect place to stop whilst browsing the other stalls at Lock 29!

Great cakes. My first time but won't be the last. The only issue was that we asked could they cut cakes in half unfortunately it's not allowed. If a knife had been available we could have cut our own. We just couldn't decide which cake to have so bought two varieties and swapped half.

Brilliant friendly place. Found it by accident and love the place. Unfortunately I live two and a half hours drive away 😟

A Disheartening Departure from Excellence I visited this Deli with high expectations, having previously experienced its beautiful atmosphere, delectable food, and superb service. Unfortunately, my second visit left me utterly disappointed. The food fell far short of the excellence we enjoyed last time, and the service, to put it mildly, was exceptionally unfriendly. Regrettably, I found myself unable to voice my concerns during the meal, as I was with friends whom I respected too much to disrupt our gathering. It's disheartening to witness such a decline in quality, and I must admit that, despite my initial positive experiences, I won't be returning to this establishment. PS: Unfortunately, I do not have any picture of my second visit (
