Great place, I had intended to go in for a while. Food was incredibly tasty, I had chicken, vegetables and rice for one... Portions are huge I had to take some home with me. It's a very relaxed style, this isn't fine dining, but what it is great home style nutritious food. Ask the staff to suggest something if you are unsure. Service was excellent, and I really enjoyed my meal. Definitely try this out.

Muy sorprendido de la cantidad de comentarios positivos. El personal era frío y desagradable y la comida era promedio en el mejor de los casos. El halloumi en el desayuno era un cortador delgado y la tostada era solo pan. Increíblemente abrumador

Cramped and over priced. £50 for two pizzas and two soft drinks. The last two times we have visited have been dreadful. No staff took us to a table, we waited patiently and the staff saw us waiting but ignored us. There are too many tables for this tiny space such that you cannot get past other diners without disturbing them or sit comfortably to eat. The pizzas at best are average and the drinks over priced £5 for a can of San Pellegrino, which you can buy wholesale for a pound or in a supermarket for less than £2 as are the beers per volume are expensive. Oxford city rates reflect the history of the city, but that doesn’t mean you have to rip people off. There are plenty of better pizza places in town Mamma Mia for one where prices are reasonable and you are not sat on top of other diners. Don’t be drawn in by this tourist trap or the allure that it is traditional Italian do your research and enjoy a better pizza dining experience that Oxford has to offer. To put it simply, pinsa is a type of pizza, a pizza is, by definition, a flatbread with cheese, sauce, and other toppings and if you sell pinsa not pizza you may wish to consider removing any reference to pizza from your branding and advertising and make it clear you sell pinsa as if if looks likes pizza and smells like pizza generally it is pizza unless otherwise stated. Thank you for confirming your San Pellegrino price, Sainsbury’s sell a pack of 4 for £3.60. It does not change the fact the place is cramped and over priced no matter how you try to justify product and branding.

Slightly underwhelming given the positive reviews I had seen. It's just a very basic pub. Friendly enough but nothing special and the welcoming fireside offer wasn't available on my visit. A chilly experience and lacking in atmosphere. Fair enough it was a Monday night but no vibe at all. Disappointed.

Fantastic food and Mansi the waitress was so lovely and helpful with the menu. I do wish more food on the menu was gluten free especially the Singapore Laksa.

I was recommended this as best coffee in Oxford. I have lived in Italy 20 years. I drink 5 coffees a day, black Americano, espresso or aeropress. I ordered an espresso. Both myself and wife were unimpressed. The execution was spot on but it had a chemically flavour. The €1 espresso in any Italian bar would beat it. I don’t know if the grind or roast was off but it was not to our taste. They were passionate about coffee with different brewing methods available.

A delicious gluten free cake with a warm cup of chai, sitting on a quaint bench, reading a book taken from the small library in the Cafe, peaceful thoughts, satisfied.

We visited before a comedy gig at the new theatre. We’d been turned away from multiple places before finding O’Neill’s. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We ordered using the QR code on the table. Service was quick and the food was delicious. Cleared quickly and staff we interacted with were friendly.

We spent the day in Oxford and hadn't planned any dinner. Luckily Sticks'n'Sushi was able to fit us in. Initially just for an hour but then thanks to a cancellation we were able to stay for dessert as well We were a party of 4 and went for a la carte in that each of us essentially ordered just food for ourselves. They also do offer sharing platters but we tend to always prefer to just get stuff we each like Everything from the cooked food to the raw sushi was excellent The yakitori (meat/fish on a stick cooked over a Japanese grill) were all amazing from the salmon to the chicken meatballs we actually all ended up ordering additional portions of them at the end of our meal The sushi was great with a stellar variety of both classics and modern style innovative sushi recipes. One thing very nice here is that they do it properly as in that most of the sushi recipes they put the wasabi inside the dish which is how they normally do it in Japan but outside of Japan I've not seen that done much out of fear that people might not like wasabi. So that was a really pleasant surprise The classics are perfectly crafted and the modern sushi recipes are bursting with flavours. Even recipes I normally don't like were done in a way here that I actually loved it. For example I'm not a fan of cream cheese in sushi rolls. However their Alaskan Salmon roll with cream cheese was absolutely delicious as the proportions were perfect and the flavour of the cream cheese did not dominate the dish I also loved that they brought special sashimi soy sauce when you order sashimi. I think it was umami soy sauce but not entirely sure. Whatever it was it was perfect for the sashimi and much better for it than the normal table soy sauce you get Another dish I'm not normally a fan of is the Chocolate Fondant cake and yes I took a gamble and had it here but it was absolutely delicious! The matcha core really helps with the overpowering taste of the liquid centre and the combination with their homemade vanilla ice cream was perfection. All the desserts we ordered were great though from the Yuzu cake to the Chocolate Fondant cake to the trio of sorbets Price wise I actually found this to be all very reasonably priced. For the quality of the food the prices are actually quite low. You can expect to pay substantially more per person for this kind of quality in London Perhaps a good thing that Oxford is so far of a drive from us as otherwise we'd be tempted to eat here on a monthly basis! Looking forward to the next time we are in Oxford and we have no doubt where we will eat on that occasion
