The best restaurants serving British food in Carfax Oxford South East

Amazing friendly place, staff, locals (who actually talk to you) & no Wi-Fi so everyone talks to each other. I'm a tourguide and this is my go to now. I also send tourists here. A genuine lovely traditional pub. Definitely the friendliest pub in Oxford city. Very comfy clean new furniture outside - no benches thank God & very comfy seats inside. Superb lovely staff and not expensive like other pubs around them. The Steak & Ale crisps are to die for. A must when in Oxford city. Thank you all. 💚💚 Flossy the Tourguide

Shut down for renovation until 2027!

You can't miss this pub. In addition to his wonderful atmosphere and attention, David, the current "landlord", is Spanish and very friendly. It can give you very valuable directions for visiting Oxford.

Tattoo barestaff asked me to leave after my food due to me taking some of my ecig.. understand couple of warning but after I order food. Blocking tab straight away. Obvious intentions. Disgusting and want be returning.

We usually go to the Westgate Nando’s since it’s closer, but one night around 9pm they sent us over to this one, and honestly, no regrets. We’re big Nando’s fans already, and this spot totally delivered. Food was great (as always), and the staff were super friendly and competent. Also, if you head in late, you might score a little bonus treat they’d otherwise toss out. (You didn’t hear it from me.) Love that Nando’s keeps the good vibes wherever you go!

Finding this restaurant wasn't the easiest, I'd expect better signage especially considering it's located in a museum with not the easiest/clearest access. The service was poor and I found it tad rude. There was a mark on one of the plates so we asked to replace it, there was no apology or friendliness it was met with a stern face. When the replacement was given similarly, it was almost shoved onto us and with no words said. We were placed on a table and had pre-booked 4 afternoon teas, this reiterated by the waitress who greeted us. As the afternoon teas arrived the waited seemed annoyed that the table had been placed incorrectly and with napkins and cutlery next to the plate and the expression he gave was as if it was our fault and we did something wrong when that was how the table was laid and set. He was saying how there won't be enough room at the same time he was laying the afternoon tea another waitress simultaneous starting placing the drinks which was unhelpful to her colleague. The waiter then suddenly decided this table wasn't big enough and asked us to move. Again, the way it was said and the move was just chaotic and rude. No offer of help was given to move all the cutlery and drinks etc till after we moved them. I just found it very standoffish and unwelcoming and surprising that the staff didn't know what table was appropriate when it is their signature dish and they know better than anyone. I do not think I'd visit again or recommend it based on how I was treated. I'd expect a waitress to friendly say I apologise about a dirty plate and similarly I would expected to be seated appropriately but if not I'd expect it to be communicated in a friendly way such as I am sorry I think a bigger table will give you more room so you're not cramps let us set one up for you and then we'll let you know when it was ready.

Aparte de Jake Stockford, que imho necesita ascender a la alta dirección i/c un pub Spoon, preferiblemente thOxford Swan & Castle, esta mina de oro apisonada (es decir, a la Compañía) de un pub es bastante pésima. A menudo, el servicio sutil, hostil al cliente o francamente grosero del personal de bar nuevo y más experimentado hasta gran parte de la administración allí, necesita ser abordado con mucha URGENCIA.

Visitado para el té de la tarde en el salón. El camarero tardó un rato en venir y sentarnos. Los asientos a los que nos mostraron eran demasiado bajos para la mesa, bastante incómodos, pero nos dijeron que no había alternativa a la que pudieran movernos. El té de la tarde era agradable, buenos sándwiches, bollos grandes, cálidos y suaves. Sin embargo, decepcionado con los “pasteles”: un chocolate relleno de caramelo, un pequeño cuadrado de gelatina, un pequeño bocado de galleta y una tarta frangipani. No hay pastel de verdad. Tomamos té en el Randolph hace 7 años, que era mucho, mucho mejor. La decoración en estos días es muy mala - coincide (pero presumiblemente diseñado de esa manera desde la renovación). También tuvimos cócteles en el bar Morse, que fue una experiencia fabulosa.

I ordered a pink steak and they gave a overcooked one and I asked them to change it and they were quite rude and told me they could not do anything and argued with me that it was pink, which was for a fact not true. So I did not enjoy my time here as the waitress were rude specially when I asked them to change my food and did not help me at all

Llamamos para cenar la semana pasada y nos quedamos muy decepcionados. Los tamaños de las porciones eran muy pequeños y caros La dirección necesita hablar con el chef sobre la relación calidad-precio 20 % IVA más un cargo por servicio que acaba de añadir insulto al perjuicio
