Comptoir Libanais Oxford - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Shiv - Pure joy on a plate – no exaggeration! The food here was one of the highlights of my stay in Oxford. As a vegan it’s so hard getting a decent meal in a casual setting but this place is like an oasis. I was practically salivating watching the person in front of me having their order made. The guy serving (seemed like owner/manager?) was so lovely and let me select a bit of everything. Food was 10/10 for freshness, flavour, nutrition and variety. The pics speak for themselves, and what is shown only cost me £10 odd (including kombucha), which is a steal for sitting in eating such wholesome food. Falafel was also top notch. I got spicy sauce but could’ve tolerated more heat, though didn’t miss anything because the flavours were POW. Overall, if I lived here I’d probably be in this place several times a week. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the chef was also super friendly. Keep up the magic, CHICK PEA. you’ve got something special here.

Morpheus I can’t relate to what most people are saying in their reviews for this place, I’ve been here a few times now and I’ve had the same experience each time, calm atmosphere, polite staff, satisfied with my order and never had anything to complain about, I’ve had better experiences at other locations but it doesn’t mean this place is bad, it’s usually around 11 whenever I’ve gone in, I don’t know if I’ve been fortunate but yeah not bad at all.

Lauren Tonks We discovered this lovely restaurant in the summer and have been a few times since. We took the kids last night for an early dinner and it was perfect. Food is delicious and service is wonderful. Its about a 20 mins drive for us, so not super local but well worth the trip. Our new favourite!

Neil King A quick google found this cafe for us when we were looking to kill an hour and it was teaming with rain, so a walk wasnt practical. Well run cafe with a great selection of sweet and savoury items to go with some excellent coffee. The place was busy, but finding a table wasnt an issue. It really does seem to be a real community asset, dedicated play area for the younger ones, a selection of board games, both to be used and purchased and a bit of gallery space if any of the pictures take your fancy. Staff all seemed happy and cheerful. The Ox Shed more than served our needs.

Dan Redfern Wonderful atmosphere and a busy Tuesday night with the locals playing a home darts match, The wonderful landlady made the most delicious Jamaican chicken dish. I had two portions! Having eaten a lot of Jamaican food in the past, though I’m totally English, I rated last night’s meal as the best Jamaican meal I have ever eaten. Spicy, so very tasty with fruity flavours. I will be back, and thank you so very much.

Maria Puolakkainen What a lovely find. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. I had the mezze plate, and at £12, it was fantastic value for money. So many good flavours, especially the aubergine and falafel were delicious. I also love the social function of the spot, with flexibility and options for payment. Will 100% be coming back. A true community spot, and a far cry from the chain restaurants of Oxford.
