The best restaurants serving Italian food in Cherwell South East

Wow the people here are so delightful. We were lucky to find this cafe amongst many others that did not look as inviting. The toasted sandwiches were superb, the rolls equally delicious but best of all were the home made cakes. Bonus- excellent coffee served in beautiful cups and mugs. Wonderful cafe.

We visited Veeno today for lunch. We had the best meal and we’ll certainly be back. I can’t believe we haven’t discovered this gem before. We had garlic bread and pizza, both of which were the best we’ve ever tasted. They came with olive oil and balsamic dip which was gorgeous. They also gave us some truffle oil to dip the pizza crusts in which was soooo good and different. They had a huge selection of wines and their house red was delicious. I had to have a second glass 😋. Can’t wait to return to try more of their menu. Thank you for a fanatic relaxing lunch x

This place creates the most incredible pizzas for a brilliant price! Once you’ve tried it once, you’ll never go else where again. Keep it up Cal

What a great bar! Children loved the Entertainment. The food was great. But more importantly the company was the best. Thanks Sharon and Ian for a lovely afternoon. We will certainly be visiting again 🤣🤣

We were there as a party of 19 for a 75th birthday. Food was excellent and service very well managed. Very impressed all round.

The food was stone cold and globs of grease all over it. Salad most definitely was not fresh.

Amazing coffee and Banbury cakes, service with a smile sold out of an amazing van! Well worth a visit!

Most beautiful Italian food I have tasted in England ! Very fresh quality of food ! Great and prompt service !

The place is an amazing to dine in but the food was cold.

I had never been here before A friend and her Daughter had So decided to go for Sunday lunch They had lamb I had beef. Well presented excellent food Loved the sweet as well

Drinks were OK. Service was horrible. Waiter was rude and not helpful at all. Would not go back.

Disgusting raw chewy calimari food was sat out for ages before it came to us poor service rude chefs and waitresses avoid avoid avoid

Had a very pleasant experience at this cafe. The service was very welcoming and the food was absolutely superb. If we were local to Banbury we’d definitely eat here regularly.

Me encantó el personal, tan amable y servicial. Pizzas sabrosas y ligeras, muy buen vino. Gran descanso del frenesí de las compras en Bicester Village - gracias.

A nice setting and the food was satisfactory although a little overpriced for the quality in comparison to similar venues. However, we were very disappointed with the level of service we received. Our first round of drinks orders was forgotten and we had to go up to the bar and order our own throughout the meal. When the meal arrived, it was incorrect, and the response we received was ‘well, this is what I was told’. Furthermore, we asked for additional cauliflower cheese for the vegetable roast, which didn’t come. When we asked for it we were informed that this had already sold out, despite it being taken in our order. As a result, we were informed that our food would be discounted, in which the bill was reduced from £96 to £94. This included a 12.5% service charge, which was still included in the price, despite the poor service we had received throughout. Overall, a disappointing experience.
