The best restaurants in Faringdon and The Coxwells Vale of White Horse South East

We’ve been here a few times for sandwiches, today we thought we would try the Brie, bacon and cranberry paninis. I can honestly say it’s the worst panini I’ve ever had. The bacon was really very fatty and cold. Both of us only ate one mouthful and then had to remove all the bacon. The lady behind the counter was very busy so I didn’t feel able to complain.

Just exploring the town last night and decided that a walk up London Street would be interesting as some quite historic buildings in the area. Then happened upon The Folly Inn and realised that it was Free House. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and good ale. Shall go back for food soon and another lovely pint. Thank you for welcome.

This cafe is a real hidden gem in the centre of Faringdon, offering delicious and authentic Indonesian food alongside a traditional coffee shop menu. The cafe is small with just a few tables but we were seated straight away. Extremely prompt and friendly service and the food was excellent.

Decent kebab van, friendly guys working there, they always remember my order even if I haven't been for months. Chicken kebab is decent quality, cooked fresh, good portion sizes too. Chips are not that good. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.

Took my son and his girlfriend here for dinner as part of a weekend stopover. I found the whole experience really good. Staff were attentive and pleasant, food was better than expected. The accompanying wines were also reasonably priced. For hotel dining, this is above the norm

We have absolutely no complaints re the service and facilities other than the slippery bath as a shower.. could be rectified with a rubber mat( especially for the more elderly guests) Bedroom… spacious, spotless and comfy! We had an evening meal which was utterly divine… The starter of cheese brûlée was highly original and delicious; followed by venison with the most sensational sauce( jus!). Dessert finished things off wonderfully with a Apple and blackberry crumble cake! Mark our waiter was most attentive. Two breakfasts were of the continental variety with plenty of fresh fruit; muesli; yoghurt; cheese; ham and a lot of fresh toast to include brioche! Full English was on offer but we were having lunch later so opted for the healthier course Maybe a cheese board could have added that extra dessert option The chef ( possibly owner) Marcel who hails from Slovakia was charming and clearly a most competent chef.

Lovely & friendly cafe and food. Indonesian menu fantastic brought back memories from my home town - Malaysia . Will definitely be returning for more Indonesia food variety soon. Nita lovely like my auntie 😍

I visited here based on the rave reviews, I was quite excited as I love a quaint tea room. The lady serving but very friendly so no issue there, the issue was the prices. The espresso was around £2.50 ish, but the Americano was “£5”?? So that’s another £2.50 for hot water, the latte was over £5 and even the tea was £5. For that price I would expect to be in a 5 star hotel with armchairs and a glorious open fire, they don’t even have a toilet, there is a dirty public toilet outside. I really don’t like giving bad reviews but I was totally dumbfounded by the prices and that people seem to be paying it.

Looking for a drink and a bite to eat on a day out, popped into Sadlers but found they'd just closed, Staff apologised but asked what we were after as they still had some pasties for take away, this suited us fine. Food was packed and labelled as different flavours and drinks from the fridge. We paid and left to eat said pasties and commented how helpful and pleasant the girls had been. Very helpful and pleasant customer experience, thank you.

We booked a special birthday lunch here, having seen some good reviews. We were shown to the ballroom, where the flowers on the table were dead!! We were then given a bar menu of small plates. When we asked for the lunch menu, we were told that they were not running lunch today, as they had a large booking in the evening. We booked in advance and the day before, we had an email asking us to reconfirm our booking, which we did. The restaurant didn’t bother to warn us in advance despite having told them it was a special birthday lunch. Appalling service, so we left and ate elsewhere, at the White Hart in Fyfield, where we had a wonderful meal

A lovely stay with fantastic food. Dinner was truly excellent and breakfast was both generous and delicious with the best hash brown/rosti ever.

This authentic curry restaurant is well worth a visit. One of the best curry dishes I have experienced. Well supported by the village. I recommend booking due to its popularity.

Atmospheric venue good service and very nice food.

Ordered online to collect, great welcome as I arrived and waited less than 2 mins and they brought it would and helped with the door. Just dished it up and it's absolutely yummy.
