This coffee shop is located inside the Truck record store, and was great. A bit cosy, but the person taking our order and making drinks was very warm and welcoming. He made the drinks very impressively and it tasted memorable and delicious.

Favourite coffee place in Oxford. Good coffee and cakes, nice crew and cozzy place. Plus it is also a vinyl shop.

Great indie coffee and record store. Large vinyl collection both new and pre-used, classics and new releases. This part of Oxford has the best in food and drink at lowest prices, a cool antidote alternative to the 'special but inevitably touristy' city centre.

All-time best coffee in Oxford! Superb espresso in a sunny corner spot, to a fabulously Spotify-free vinyl soundtrack. All set in Oxford’s amazing Truck Store record store. Unrivaled!
