The best restaurants serving British food in Sandford South Oxfordshire South East

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.

Great location ,we had pre booked ,however we were advised it was extremely busy and going to be a 45 minute wait for our meals from point of order.. David was excellent throughout our wait and very attentive giving regular updates and taking drinks orders before we finally received our food,which was nice and hot.

Fantastic experience for a place that has been long established. There are very nice extra touches, the welcome was very friendly, burger boards with chef patron name on it, tasteful menus and clean, unscrumpled paper. A really nice touch was that 4 sauces were put down before our mains arrived. A real touch. No service was demanded, purely an option on the PDQ machine. The food was excellent and the place was full but with enough spaces between tables it wasn’t imposing. They’ve got a lot so spot on, it’s no wonder they have lasted the length of time. Well done all, our new favourite place and we will be back.

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.
