Went for an afternoon tea with prosecco that was gifted to me via Groupon. The café is very lovely, great atmosphere and staff is amazing. Super accomodating and kind. The afternoon tea sandwiches were fresh and tasted delicious, huge selection of cakes and the scones were the highlight of the tray! Absolutely recommended!

Really nice staff and amazing pizza! Love the type of pizza that you cannot take a bite out of without a cheese pull!

Good value afternoon tea, homemade scones, decent sandwiches, tea and cakes. Chef came out to check what I can eat (I'm vegetarian). Sandwiches were all cheese based, was expecting at least one of the sandwiches with eggs but still OK. They also have plant based milk, just ask. Great value for the price, got a Groupon voucher for afternoon tea for two. Other customers are those who are staying at the hotel. Menu is OK, there's a small bar, list of cocktails looks interesting. Parking is limited. Best to park at Hinksey park (pay and display) and walk over. There's a disable parking bay on street.

Stayed here as a large group at the hotel and had very delicious breakfasts and a very delicious main meal .

We stayed as a hen party and the staff was very accommodating. The atmosphere was excellent for our mixed age group for dinner, providing a chilled atmosphere in a nice rustic vibe cafe setting. The food was absolutely delicious in the evening.... we shared a couple of starters and had our own mains. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed what they ordered.
Would definitely recommend eating here to x
