I have eaten here a few times midweek when I have found myself in Summertown, normally during Oxford Art Week.
The food and service has always been wonderful. The owner is charming.
Lots of treats, savoury and sweet, for those who have a “I don’t what that is … I try one” attitude to lunch. I have never been disappointed.
Go.

The food is good and that’s the main thing - but gosh the two old men in there sure are a grumpy pair. Not asking for much, just a smile to greet the customer would go a long way, pretty basic rules of customer service.

Every Friday I attempt to try a new lunch spot in the Oxfordshire area. LB's has become a main stay for any week where I haven't snuffed out something new. The owners a miserable old boy, but doesn't half whip up a nice Wrap. I once asked him if I could add Halloumi to my falafel wrap and he gave me a look like I had shot his wife...Lesson learnt only buy what's on the menu. 8.4/10 .,shukran

Very good experience. Fresh and delicious food. I also dropped the falafel wrap I was enjoying on the floor. The man serving was very kind and gave me a new one free of charge! I will definitely be back soon.

Great halal option for early risers looking for breakfast in Summertown. Not just that, they also offer variety of vegetarian options. They have dish of the day and their wrap is recommended! Seats are limited.
