Chefs Cottage - (Near Oxfordshire, South East)

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!

John Etheridge Excellent choice for a light lunch for us. Our sandwiches were fresh, bread toasted to perfection. Our drinks were cold and the tea hot. Friendly reception and very comfortable atmosphere at the outside seating. Would stop again if in the area.

Oliver Lethbridge An incredible pub. Food is really excellent, the steak and ale pie & the fish and chips being standouts. Great, friendly service. The outside is perhaps a little unwelcoming (it was hard to tell it was open) but the inside was extremely charming and cosy. If I lived in the area, I’d be eating here regularly.

Joshua Ashton Really lovely country pub with rooms. Makes for a very nice night stay. The pub has a great rural feel, and the food was excellent quality. The staff were also superb, attentive and friendly but not fussy. We felt really welcome from start to finish. Room was comfortable, cosy and clean. We highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet cotswolds night or two away in an idyllic setting.

Anne Rees We had a delicious lunch today, hadnt booked on this very wet day, popped in on passing. Lilia made us very welcome, she was a complete delight. A lovely village near Daylesford Organic, would recommend.

Gabbro1983 Very nice restaurant. Small, quiet. Got booked in and sat down quick (it was quite empty when I went). Food came out pretty rapid. Id recommend the topped chips upgrade. Very happy with the meal.
