Bella Italia - Oxford - (Near Oxfordshire, South East)

Katie McPhilimey Staff are incredible! I told them mum used to love Banana Splits as a child, and they fetched her one with no charge! Impeccable service - delicious sandwiches, beautiful surroundings. The staff add even more to what is a stunning venue

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.

Rita Pereira We were a group of four and had a great experience! The food was served quickly and was very well prepared. Portions were generous and the prices reasonable. Everything was delicious!
For mains, we had the Burrata & Pancetta Carbonara, two Calzones (Carne Piccante), and the Pollo e Pancetta pizza.
For dessert, we chose the Lemon Sorbet and two portions of the coffee & mini dessert - a great option if you fancy something sweet but don’t want a large portion. The staff were nice and attentive.

Lizzie The most fabulous afternoon tea! Everything was so fresh and tasty, huge portion and great value for money. We took food home, presentation was amazing and staff were really friendly

Ruth Lockwood Great place lots of seating, good food friendly staff. I was there for the launch of WRWR

Sarah Lowe Lovely meal here last Friday, pub was busy but the restaurant was quieter. The food was excellent and all the staff were friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Highly recommended.
