Helen Davis Fabulous food. Special shout out to the restaurant staff last night and chef and service and food spot on! Thank you ☺️

Cathy Dunbabin Our Sunday lunch was delicious.…more than I could eat. Everything tastes fresh even though we didn’t get there until 4.30pm. The staff were excellent, very friendly and efficient. The venue had a lovely cozy atmosphere. We will definitely be going back.

Mioma Priora Tucked away in the charmingly narrow Friars Entry, The White Rabbit is a standout pub for its dedicated craft beer selection and playful Alice in Wonderland theme. It’s a cosy, eclectic space filled with curious decor, mismatched furniture, and a genuinely welcoming vibe that appeals to both locals and in-the-know visitors. From my perspective, this is a top choice for a relaxed evening focused on quality drinks. The constantly rotating taps showcase excellent local and national craft ales, making it a destination for beer enthusiasts. The food menu complements this perfectly, focusing on hearty, shareable pub classics with a gourmet twist. While the burgers are solid, the standout is their sourdough pizza. The dough is fermented in-house, giving it a fantastic texture, and the topping combinations are creative yet balanced. The ‘Fun-Guy’ (wild mushrooms, truffle oil, and garlic) is a particular highlight. The loaded fries (try the ‘Dirty Fries’ with cheese, bacon, and jalapeños) also make for a perfect beer-sharing snack. Portions are generous, so consider sharing a pizza and a side. Go in the late afternoon or early evening to secure a table in the quirky, cave-like back room. The staff are knowledgeable and happy to guide your beer choice to pair with your food. Don’t come for a quiet, historic pub experience—come for vibrant atmosphere, excellent modern pub fare, and some of the best craft beer in central Oxford. It’s a wonderfully whimsical and satisfying escape.

gary brimson Back after many years to find the Restaurant in full swing which is great. We had a really nice server who was super helpful throughout. Food was first class, all courses. Very flavourful meats and the sauces/jus so rich. Nice to find cheeses which were slightly different to the usual standard fare and very tasty home made crackers to accompany. The one thing wed prefer is the quince and almond tart seemed more like a cake than a tart, but again very tasty. Good selection of wines, with a nice rest of the world selection. Wont wait as long to return again.

Mo Diop I went here on a Saturday afternoon and was quite hungry but wanted to dry something knew, so I gave this food stand a try and let me tell you the food was absolutely delicious and the service was quick and helpful. I was served by a young gentleman called mohammed who was impeccable. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for some good food.

Allen Foster We found this lovely little Italian eatery, only a short walk to the New Theatre. We couldn’t fault the food,, service or the atmosphere. It must be good, as we could see returning customers being greeted and welcomed back by the staff. Well worth a visit and we will return when back in Oxford.
