Olivia Jenkins If you have not yet tried this restaurant make it next on your list!! I have been here for both lunch and evening meal and every time it is amazing. The food the atmosphere and most importantly the staff are the best!!! Big portions for good prices. Shoutout to Melissa for the delicious cocktails too. Really highly recommend.

The Kids Tell Bad Jokes Was tempted to have 5 Guys takeaway delivered (Im in Oxford for overnight for a conference), but decided to go independent instead. Nearly didnt order from here as was looking at Deliveroo and couldnt see milkshakes available (which I definitely wanted), but they were available if I ordered from Just Eat... Unavailable to order on their own, but could be ordered if I added as an upgrade to the meal deal drink, bizarrely. Anyway, very glad I did! Smokey Texas Burger looked a bit small, but was DELICIOUS. Cajun fries also great. Probably would be too spicy for my kids (and theyre not exactly wimps) but spot on for me. Funnily enough, the oreo milkshake was the only disappointment - with no straw supplied and a big wodge of whipped cream on top, it was tricky to drink, and I was more looking for a thick McDonalds style sludgy shake, where this was a bit thinner. But still nice enough and it hit the spot. Would definitely recommend the burger and chips though!

Jacqueline Hands down the best Chinese food I‘ve ever had! Very tasty food, came out piping hot and very attentive service.

Peter Sloane Stopped for lunch, we arrived late but they still seated us. Food as advertised, elevated pub food, but very elevated. Steak served simply with sauce and fries but exceptional cut and cooked to perfection. Burger wonderful, simple but everything perfectly done. They did pasta for our 5 year old and charged only £7 which is not always the case with restaurants. Would definitely come again.

Prathimaa Venkatesh I had a wonderful experience savoring such delicious food. I have never before tasted such authentic Kerala cuisine, and the best part is that it is located in Cowley. If you are missing home, I highly recommend visiting this establishment. After many months, my taste buds are truly satisfied, and the service provided by the staff was incredibly heartwarming.
