The Turnpike - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Loll Brooks Excellent a great choice of food and drink. Great company love it.

Andy Alford From someone who eats out quite a bit, I can honestly say that this was the best curry that Ive had in a long time - possibly ever! I had the chicken lababda, which was just amazing- the flavourings and spices were unlike anything Ive ever tasted before. My son had the chicken korma, which was also delicious. Rice was plump and tasty and the nan bread (plain) was not at all greasy or too oversized. For desert we had gulab jamun, which was also good. This restaurant holds a 5 star food hygiene rating from 23 May 2023. Will definitely be back next time we come to Oxford - well done!

Keith Price OK food,but forgot to include everything that was on the menu. The service appalling!!! Walked to the bar and the barman just walked off, went away and came back 5 minutes later and the barman too busy texting on his phone to serve me. When i asked for the bill i was given the tap machine which i refused to tap tip, once paid i was given the bill with a service charge added !!!. Music too loud and after asking for it to be turned down, nothing done!! mooring right outside but we found a much better pub down the road after this experience. My advice give it a miss unless your desperate.

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

Mitch Delicious coffee, nice atmosphere and lovely staff. Paninis made fresh to order - delightful. I had the ham and cheese, my manager had the spicy chicken one, cant remember the name, he really enjoyed that too. Thanks for having us.

Colette Raw We have just had a lovely lunch at the Red Lion. I am gluten and dairy intolerant and they were very attentive to ensuring that my meal would be ok. We even managed to come up with a dessert I could have ( the only negative thing I can say is that none of the desserts on the menu were suitable) but I introduced them to an "Eton tidy" -(Eton mess without the ice cream or cream), so I even had a dessert. All the staff were very pleasant and helpful. Would definitely eat there again. Thank you all.
