The best restaurants serving British food in South Oxfordshire South East

We booked a table for six by phone in the morning for A Boxing Day lunch and were lucky enough to get a table. We all had pizzas, chosen from a wide ranging menu and we each had a superb meal. The pub looked great in its Christmas finery but it always is an attractive and welcoming place. There was a real family atmosphere created by the staff, making it a pleasure and a treat to be there. We have been before but it reminded us that we should go there more often.

Lovely cosy pub, the lamb roast was reasonably priced and some of the nicest lamb I’ve had in the area. Service was outstanding, really nice to experience great service for a change, all the staff members were super on it and very friendly. Dessert was delicious and they have a great selection of seasonal dessert cocktails.

My friend and I went for afternoon tea for her birthday as we live relatively local but not been there before. It was so delightful and everything was delicious. Lovely sandwiches, quiche, sausage rolls, cakes and fabulous scones. There was so much choice and a lot to get through and needless to say we were beaten. We were offered little boxes to take the uneaten goodies home. The table was laid beautifully and everything was perfect and made us feel special. My only advice is to pre-book as there are only 3 tables inside plus it will give the proprietor a chance to prepare for you.

My first visit to the Royal and wow! Very impressed A warm welcome from the manager Glyn and his staff excellent service As for the food! The homemade mackerel pate was delicious (thank you chef!) - perfect sized portion as was following with the roast lamb! Food was very good value. Would Definitely come again Best to book as very popular restaurant.

Stopped off here for breakfast while i was in the area. Food was lovely, generous portions, and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Amazingly fresh, home cooked food! Beautiful setting. Friendly, polite staff, what’s not to like?! Look forward to next visit!

*avoid* fake reviews!!! Absolutely disgusting, the worse place I've eaten hands down. If I could swear on here I would! £12.30 for burger and chips and breakfast stick, burger was re heated,cheapest meat going, no butter in roll, ketchup Is slop, sausage was deep fried and not sure even meat.. I honestly had to throw it and go somewhere else.. disgusting!

Thank you for making our Anniversary Meal special. Fantastic food great service. The food was everything that was promised and more

The best Persian food I’ve had. 10/10 every time. The staff and the owner are lovely, warm and welcoming. I don’t live locally but anytime I am passing I make an excuse to stop here.

Country pub atmosphere, good food, and lovely staff. We had the Sunday roast - magnificent. 🤓

For a restaurant that is present in the Michelin guide i was a bit disappointed. Food was not mind blowing and service not on the spot even so the restaurant was not full. They wanted to serve us our mains before starters!

A great deli for our pre-christmas cheese shop. They have a huge stock of all those special things we want for the festive table. I might have given 5 stars for food too, but they didn't have a couple of our favourite cheeses this year. I may amend to 5 stars if stock is better next year. Lovely staff.

Easily the best pub for food, drink and atmosphere in Oxfordshire, probably the whole of the UK and quite possibly the whole world. Wonderful hosts, friendly and smiley staff and the best fish and chips 😋 Definitely worth a visit 👍

Private function, after which some stayed over. Excellent buffet lunch, oleasant staff and environment
