The best restaurants serving British food in Cherwell South East

Good prices but most visits have had certain menu items unavailable leading to disappointing visits.

Came here for breakfast with my partner, we weren’t expecting something fancy but we were disappointed as the staff spent more time talking and on their phones then working. Again we weren’t expecting anything fancy with the food but the cooked breakfast tasted odd compared to breakfasts I’ve had in the past.

Received parking fine £60.00 - i did not see any signs to advise that it was chargeable. I live in Bicester and have visited the acorn quite a few times and have never paid to park?? Why would you charge to park if your eating / drinking - like the Premier Inns customers should advise there reg number at time of ordering with you so this DOES NOT Happen. Puts me off coming again if honest.

My favourite Tesco store by far. Excellent customer service and always clean and tidy. The store is easy to navigate and everything is well signed posted .

The photos on the website and Google aren't a true reflection. The place is falling to bits. It stinks and is full of mould. The bar is shut and so is the restaurant. Staff are very unfriendly. I arrived seen the state of the place and obviously stated my booking was made under false presences. So far 2 months down the line they've refused to refund me. AVOID.

Been coming to this pub for years, ‘nowt wrong with spoons’ Management and all the staff Dona great job, Yep as with every spoons it’s cheap and cheerful, gets far too busy and you wish there was more staff. Full of locals which can be an issue especially at weekends but all in all it’s a lovely pub with a nice history Breakfasts- which is all I’ve ever really eaten here apart from the odd curry club are filling, cheap- fiver! And served quickly, what. Ore can you ask for Great for some ales- me and the boyfriend love their guest ales and ipas. Today we’ve tried the exmoor beast and exmoor gold- both went down well, and for £1.99- that price is a steal. Go on spoons, you do yourself proud!!!!!

Most of us know that post pandemic many country pubs are suffering due the decline in customers and the current cost of living and every rising water and energy bills. The Plough inn is no exception and times have been hard. Even so, the landlady and her partner have worked tirelessly to try and get back on track. A new Cooker has been installed at a considerable cost and the eating lounge has has a lovely refurb. I went for a Sunday dinner with my partner and the meal was very tasty and my beef was tender and cooked to a perfection. My partner ordered roast chicken which went down really well. For deserts we were presented with a choice of typical English Sunday deserts, served with fresh cream or custard. We also ordered a bottle of red that was complementary with both meats and deserts. " The landlady has just started "Breakfasts at the Plough" every Saturday from 08.00am -11.00 am. Great breakfasts and great prices, served with fresh coffee, teas and fruit juices. The Plough also has live music nights, bingo, and pub quizzes. Plan some tie to drop in and I feel sure you will not be disappointed.

Jamie Oliver's Fabulous Feasts great Italian cuisine service good prices moderate staff friendly nice location 


Absolutely incredible night with the Secret Supper Society for my birthday. Jules has been wonderful to deal with right from my first enquiry. The food was absolutely incredible. Clean plates all round. Amazing flavours with good size portions. Jules and her team were the perfect balance of attentive whilst leaving us alone to enjoy the meal in the beautiful dining room. We'll definitely be back!

The main service area is what it is the reason for this review is the truck wash called today at 1500 told they had finished I've been at 1400 in the past got the same response. I think it's just can't be bothered
