WTVS STREET SHOP - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

N M Had a really lovely dinner. The restaurant has a dark, cosy feel with beautiful paintings along the walls, lovely for a relaxed winter evening. I had the rabbit & tarragon pie with rosemary carrots and broccoli. The pie was memorable because instead of the usual pastry lid on a dish, it came as a round pastry ball filled with the pie inside. It felt special and tasted absolutely delicious. Trifle was also good. It wasn’t very busy when I visited (early dinner), but it was a calm, comfortable atmosphere. Service was good and attentive without being overbearing.

Thistle and Jasmine Went in on a Wednesday night and no issues at all with not having a booking. Seated and served very quickly. They have a good diverse menu. I got the satay chicken skewers to start and thought they were excellent! Best I’ve had in a while. I had the duck fried rice and kung po chicken as a main. Lot of flavour in both and very nice. Duck fried rice was a bit grisly in places but to be expected with duck. Very good portion size and a lot of flavour. The kung po chicken was great too, lot of flavour and a little kick too it. I would maybe have liked it a bit spicier but it was still very nice. Overall, very good restaurant, nice atmosphere, great attentive staff. I would definitely come again if in the area.

Cameron Rose I took my girlfriend to this restaurant for her 21st birthday and I couldn’t have been happier with everything. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was really nice, but the service was the highlight. Our waitress grace went above and beyond, serving us a glass of Prosecco to start as a gift from the house. She checked on us often to make sure everything was perfect and even thew in a shot of limoncello to top it off. Not to mention setting up the birthday cake I had brought with the candles and birthday banner I put in the bag. I could not recommend this place any higher. If you want good food with attentive service, this place is for you

Jason Lum After a morning of lecture and some punting, the final step of the Oxford experience is high tea time! I did not stay in the hotel but this review is for the restaurant and bar area of the hotel. My group had a table near the window with a great view in the middle afternoon. We came from California and the weather came with us because it was quite lovely without a cloud in the sky. We started with presecco before tea as a celebration. Preseco is sparkling wine but we cannot call it champagne or we might make the French mad as our server explained. Normally this was a traditional for graduation but considering our Oxford Global business program was ending it was time to celebrate. We ordered 6 orders of High tea for I people but it was way too much food. Considering we havent eating lunch this was a late lunch or dinner. The scones are the best! Sweet butter and jam in a scone is divine. Im not going to say amazing because I am resisting the urge. The scones hands down beat any butter milk southern biscuit I have had in America. This was shocking considering most English food in my opinion lack flavor and spice. Everything is mostly bread, basic entree and some form of dessert. Personally I prefer focus on the main course with dessert and bread optional. The high tea spread was mostly finger food sandwiches and dessert items. The tea and scones were my favorite part. Just lounging and having a great time with friends made for a great time. I will try again. This location was very affordable and will not break the bank. Cheers!

GJTJ A true gem in Oxford. Stumbled across the Punter as it was close to our hotel and we have been amazed by the place the food and the team. Even if you are not vegetarian/vegan you need to try this exquisite cuisine, turning classics into a new discovery for your palate. Special shout out to the scotch egg and the goats cheese arancino (we went back for a second serving as they were so good). The team was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We recommend highly The Punter. We will be back on our next trip to Oxford!

Jimin Yesterday, I went here for dinner and I was very happy with my food here. This is the first time I have ever eaten inside this restaurant as at the past, I only ordered takeaways from here, which tasted delicious. I had the Nasi Goreng, the Sesame Prawn Toast and the Coconut Rice, all of them which were very delicious. Service was also good as well.
