La Vecchia Cantina - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Pete Hickey A Wonderful lunch at The Boxing Hare – We’ll Be Back! Tucked away in the idyllic Cotswolds just outside Chipping Norton, The Boxing Hare is the kind of gem that feels like a warm hug from an old friend. From the moment we stepped through the door of this charming stone-built inn, we knew we’d stumbled upon something special. The rustic beams, cozy ambiance, and that inviting garden peeking through the windows set the perfect scene for a family meal out The steaks are some of the best we have had in a long long time

Andy Howard When you walk in and you’re greeted with a warm and welcoming smile from one of the owners (Claire) who seats you in a perfect spot right next to the kitchen where the co owner & Italian Chef (Val) slaves away making every meal to order using only the freshest ingredients you know you’ve found ‘your place’. Unable to choose what to eat we ask Val to keep us fed and watered and between the two we weren’t let down. We told Claire what our wine tastes were and she brought the most Devine wine! Val then made us a starter, a main and a main, and a main… AND a desert!! Wow wow wow!! (Have the crab pasta!!) Our first night at Alberto’s made us feel welcomed, wanted and part of the team! Did you know Val is also a jeweller?! Does this man’s skills have any boundries?! If only we’d come earlier we could have visited their veg shop just up the street “Plant’d” we will be back!! K&A

SJ A Our second visit to The Wild Rabbit was a perfect weekend break. Staying in one of the dog friendly cottage’s and dining in the restaurant (without the dogs). Service and welcome was impeccable. The food absolutely delicious. Wine list is very impressive too. It’s fast becoming one of our favourite weekend getaways. Thank you all for having us.

Lucas Lee Been here a few times now and every time they have not disappointed, I normally get a delivery to Moreton in marsh which is like 15 mins away and the food always comes super hot and delicious

shelley spring We had the most wonderful stay at The Falkland Arms. Ernesto and the team were absolutely amazing from the moment we arrived. The pub itself is cosy, comforting and full of charm and as a bonus it’s really dog friendly too. We stayed here as we were travelling to see Clarkson’s Farm and it was absolutely perfect. If you’re thinking of doing the same thing, this place is a little gem. The food was incredible, we had the bacon chop, the steak and the chicken gnocchi, all cooked beautifully and full of flavour. Our room was gorgeous, warm and welcoming and breakfast was fabulous, great choice to start the day. We absolutely loved our stay and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

James Excellent meal at The Fox. The salmon was genuinely lovely. Fresh, well cooked, and not messed about with. Food arrived promptly, which is always appreciated when you’re actually hungry rather than on a lifestyle retreat. Staff were accommodating and attentive without being intrusive. Everything ran smoothly, which sounds basic but is surprisingly rare these days. Good food, efficient service, and a place that understands you don’t need theatrics to do things properly. Worth a stop.
