Kidlington Woodstock yarton - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Sal V We booked In Anita’s Kitchen to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday and it turned out to be one of the most special dining experiences we’ve ever had. There were six of us and Anita welcomed us into her home like old friends. The setting is intimate and relaxed, which made the whole evening feel incredibly comfortable and personal. Anita prepared a beautiful 7-course vegetarian menu, cooking each dish in front of us and talking us through the ingredients, techniques and little tips that make such a difference. It felt like a cross between a private supper club and a hands-on cooking masterclass, but without any pressure, just pure enjoyment. Every course was delicious, thoughtfully put together and full of flavour, and the pacing of the evening was perfect. What really made it extra special, though, was Anita herself: warm, knowledgeable, and a genuinely wonderful host who made everyone feel included and at ease. It was a wholesome, memorable experience and such a unique way to celebrate a milestone birthday. If you’re looking for something more personal than a restaurant and love great freshly cooked food, I can’t recommend this experience highly enough. Thank you Anita! Sailesh

Malik Iqbal The food was really good and fresh. The staff were kind and helpful. I’ll come again for sure.

Heffernan Noél (Noël) Recently, I was very fortunate enough to be invited by the owner of The Mayflower, in Kidlington, to a Chinese Banquet in his restaurant which is currently mainly known and used as a takeaway. The food was prepared by a renowned Oxford Chef, who previously was heavily involved in The Liaison, Paddyfields and the Tong San, these were all known for serving up the most amazing Traditional, Authentic, Cantonese dishes. He is now preparing this style of food and passing on his skills at The Mayflower on a pre-arranged basis. If you are thinking of having a special meal and think that this would be of interest, please contact the restaurant to arrange a meeting, with the owners, to discuss your requirements. The attached photos show a range of dishes, which although in this case included a number of seafood items, can be altered to suit individual needs. The meal that I have highlighted would cost between £50 and £60 per head and the minimum number would be 8 but 10 is ideal.

Carolina Stassis Have been coming here for special occasions for about 7 years. Great consistency in the quality, the kind of food you find in top restaurants in London. Worth every penny. Love everything on the menu. The fresh bread is excellent. Especially great in the Summer garden. Super cosy inside in the bay window seat by the bar. We love that it is dog friendly outside, and in the bar area too. Pictures are from different visits. Always great!
