The Cinnamon Stick - (Near Oxfordshire, South East)

5 /5 VP: We were so lucky to stumble upon The Cinnamon Stick. Located in the small village of Middle Barton where you’d expect nothing around, this restaurant is a total standout. It offers a true taste of Lebanese hospitality and home-style cooking. ​ The quality of food is incredible. Almost everything is made in-house (except for the gelato), and you can really taste the difference. The dishes are authentic, fresh, and truly delicious. It is rare to find such high-quality Mediterranean flavors in this area. ​ The staff is lovely and provides genuine Lebanese hospitality. You can tell the team cares about their guests and the food they serve. They made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. ​ If you are anywhere near Oxfordshire, this place is worth the detour. Huge thanks to the team for their service and for bringing such amazing flavors to a quiet corner of the country!

5 /5 Jonathan Earle: Just visited for food. Dinner for 2 at the Cinnamon stick did not disappoint! Very tasty food that had us debating to revisit for dinner 2 days in a row on our trip to the area. Pretty good value for money too. We had 5 mezze dishes between 2 of us. The Batata Harr potato dish was probably one of the best potato dishes Ive ever tried. Aubergine moussaka also great. If youre in the area, wed definitely recommend a visit!

5 /5 vinay thanki: Visited the restaurant for my mothers birthday for 16 of us. They took great care of us with great service and amazing food. Mezzes were all lovely. I especially liked the musaka and batata harra. Kids obviously enjoyed the chips and pizza.
