The best restaurants in Sandford South Oxfordshire South East

We were lucky to find this gem - lovely place to visit ! Everyone was so friendly- we enjoyed bacon rolls in the cafe and treated ourselves to lots of treats in the shop ! I would recommend a visit - please support this community shop & cafe !

First impressions really great, room great. Advertised free wifi but I irked to sign in as you have to provide your full name, date of birth email and telephone number so they can send you advertising and who knows if they sell this list to anybody. No permission option to reject. I find that is an invasion of my privacy. I stressed the importance of wifi on phone as needed to work in my room. They never mentioned I would have to give all my details. I would rather have paid for it or I would have gone elsewhere. The next morning I was meant to check out at 11 and because I was trying to finish an urgent project I asked whether they minded an extra 2 hours. The lady at my room said it would be 10 per hour so total £20. I said that was fine. At 11 on the clock a woman came to my door armed with a card machine and said it was £40. I am in the travel business and travel a lot. I never get charged for extra time yet. I think £40 in relation to the room cost of £90 room only is atrocious and just the attitude of coming to my door with a card machine as if I am going to flip before paying. Breakfast is £9. I said I would come for a coffee in the morning and possibly lunch. I had my coffee before all this saga and when I was leaving I thought I better go pay for my coffee. The man said it’s fine but the woman said no and again with her card machine charged me £5.50 for the coffee. More than half the breakfast! I left instantly not interested in lunch in case of another rip off. I understand costs but the way it was done, the attitude of the people and the rates for a small inn which I incorrectly saw as a welcoming place to stop over for the night left me feeling pretty miserable! I won’t be back!

Took ages to work out what was going on here. Had to call a few times to get contact. I think the people are/were new. Breakfast was nice and the rooms spacious but outside it looks run down and derelict.

Came out of my way with my family to the oxford sainsbury’s cafe to get a good meal we saw on the sainsbury’s cafe menu online to turn up and see completely different! hardly selling anything just “soup” and microwaved bread basically. let alone not much food for children or vegetarians. don’t come here.

Gode senger, bra størrelse på rom, veldig god frokost nok til å bli god og mett, hyggelig betjening, ligger landlig fint.

Absolutely Superb food. Everything is cooked from the freshest ingredients. Been going there for several years and it never stops being the best food to be found anywhere. Delightful simple tiny pub where everything is done with integrity.

Popped in here for a birthday lunch. Food was delicious (fish and chips,scampi and chips,steak ciabatta). Welcoming staff and great service from Hannah S.

We came here for dinner after indoor golf. It’s pretty terrible to be honest. Not a lot of people dining there yet the service was slow. They had run out of garlic bread which seemed ridiculous. They clearly do a roaring trade in deliveroo etc so not sure if that has an impact on stock levels. The kids puddings were laughable - tiny. The brownie was literally 2 small bites and the supposed fruit pot that accompanies the ice cream was literally 2 slithers of a strawberry and 2 tiny chunks of pineapple. Overpriced, mediocre food. Won’t return.

We were on business in the area and arrived pretty late but were greeted so warmly and made to feel welcome. The staff were more than happy to fix us some drinks as we sat by the roaring open fire. I wish we had time to eat because the menu looked delicious. We were shown to our room by a lovely Scottish lady who is a credit to the place. The room was really comfortable and warm with the heated floors. The bed was big and the sheets and pillows were nice and fluffy. The bathroom was a great size and clean s was the whole place. One tiny note there was a little smell but that’s just noticeable to me and my strong nose, so no big issue. We slept great and opened the window for some fresh air. The breakfasts were delicious. One full English and one smoked salmon with some great tea and coffee. I hope to come back for a meal one day

We had some small plates for dinner as we had a large lunch. We had squid, some mushroom arancini and bruschetta. All were good size for starters and very tasty, especially the arancini. Service was excellent and staff are very friendly. Fairly small menu but what they had on offer looked good and our food was good value.
