Lovely spot upstairs from the pub, feels very cosy. The lighting was a bit flickery, but it was still a really relaxed evening. Just the kind of place where you can settle in and not feel rushed.

Been coming here for a while. The food is always solid, never had a bad meal. They switch up the menu quite often, so it doesn&#39;t get boring. My only gripe is that sometimes a favourite dish disappears!

The chorizo hash was a proper treat, really hit the spot. The Cosy Butchers Brunch was solid too. Good portion, kept me full for hours. Menu&#39;s got loads of choice for breakfast.

Generous portions, as always. They boxed up the leftovers without any fuss. The quality is pretty reliable, though the place can get a bit loud on weekends.

The burger patty was cooked just right, juicy and flavourful. The bun held up well, not too soggy. Chips were decent, crispy outside. Could&#39;ve used a touch more seasoning on the fries, but the main event was solid.

The chicken karahi was really flavourful. I appreciated how fresh the ingredients tasted, especially the tomatoes and herbs. The chicken itself was tender, not overcooked at all. A solid choice if you&#39;re looking for something satisfying but not too heavy.

The oxtail and curry goat were really good. The meat was so tender it just fell off the bone. For the price, the portions were a bit smaller than I expected, but the flavours were spot on.

Best fish and chips I&#39;ve had in Oxford. The fish was spot on.

The lamb shish was the standout. Perfectly grilled, tender with a slight char, and the seasoning was spot-on. The rice pilaf it came with was fluffy and had a nice hint of saffron. That&#39;s what I&#39;ll remember.

Perfect spot for a New Year&#39;s Eve catch-up with friends. The staff were so friendly and made the night feel really relaxed.

Loved the menu variety, the pasta was spot on. But the real star was the tiramisu - light, not too sweet, just right.

Frank was a great server, really made us feel welcome. He suggested the pistachio tiramisu and it was spot on. Just the right amount of sweet.

Beef curry and chicken fried rice were both tasty. Portions are big, which is great for a quick lunch. Got my food in under 10 minutes. Perfect for a busy day.

The ingredients in their salads are incredibly fresh. I could taste the crispness of the greens and the ripe tomatoes. It&#39;s a rare find for a pub. The portion was a bit small for the price, but the quality made up for it.

Been coming here for years, and the garden is still the perfect spot to unwind. Always feels like a little escape from the bustle.

Great spot for a full English breakfast. The bacon was perfectly crisp, eggs just runny enough. A solid pot of tea to go with it. Staff were friendly, which always helps start the day right.

We were soaked after our walk, so finding a spot that welcomed our muddy dog was a relief. The pizza was spot on, and the Meantime pale ale was poured just right. A proper cosy stop on a rainy day.

Their gluten-free menu is impressive, really one of the best selections around. The food and drinks were spot on.

It was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night but that just added to a more relaxed quiet evening staff were great very polite and friendly price of the meal very reasonable thanks Toby for a lovely evening

The pearl barley salad with tuna. That&#39;s the one. Barley had a nice bite, tuna was seared just right. Not something you&#39;d expect at a place like this. Price was fair.

The confit duck leg was so tender, and the halloumi burger had a lovely texture. My favourite part was the raspberry panna cotta, it was just the right amount of sweetness to finish. A really pleasant meal.

Loved the cosy layout - all the little rooms make it feel nice and quiet even when it&#39;s packed. The fish and chips were spot on, my father-in-law couldn&#39;t stop talking about them!

The lentil pasta was a solid choice. Nicely spiced and seasoned. It&#39;s a decent spot for a relaxed meal, though the portion felt a touch small for the price.

Yeti offers a fantastic dining experience with authentic Nepalese cuisine. The bhindi tarkari was a great introduction to okra, and the service was quick and friendly.

Great gluten-free pasta options here. The chef knows his stuff and prepares it with care. Perfect for a quick, safe lunch when you&#39;re in a rush.

Simple spot, tidy inside. Got the confit duck for a quick lunch. Meat just fell off the bone, sauce was a nice sweet-salty hit. Potato gratin was rich and filling. Perfect for when you need something solid but fast.

Brigitte was so lovely and helpful. The fish of the day was the highlight for me - you could really taste the freshness. It felt like a healthy, light choice. She even gave us some nice tips for Oxford.

The place was packed but service was still quick and friendly. Our waitress remembered how I liked my coffee, which was a nice touch. Food came out at a decent pace too.

Got there just as they opened for lunch. The place filled up fast. Solid food, friendly staff. Good sign.

The spaghetti bolognese is always a solid choice. Just a heads up, their online ordering can be a bit hit or miss sometimes.
