THE OLD BOOKBINDERS

British restaurant €€
5/5
1 review

The Old Bookbinders decided to combine the best of British and French bistro culture. The result is convincing, and it's hard to categorize this resolutely British pub that offers successful French cuisine. The interior is as traditional as can be, with dark wood, bric-a-brac and real ales at the counter. The dishes, on the other hand, are drawn from south of the Channel, and include savoury crêpes, beef bourguignon, escargots, entrecôtes frites... or the so-British minted lamb!

THE WHITE RABBIT

Italian restaurant and pizzeria
4/5
1 review

Right in the heart of Oxford, The White Rabbit (a nod to Alice in Wonderland) offers excellent value for money in its small, white-walled room. With paninis at lunchtime and pizzas all day, there's something for everyone, and a wide variety of recipes. In addition to the classic margherita and quatro fromaggi, there are a number of highly original formulas to choose from, with over 20 options. The perfect lunch break just a stone's throw from the Ashmolean Museum. The waiters are very friendly.

THE FOLLY

British restaurant €€
4/5
1 review

The location alone is a delight, on a small island in the middle of the Thames. But it's the food that really makes the magic happen: The Folly is an excellent, almost gourmet restaurant, with a tempting, well-mastered menu. Options include a mini-cruise, accompanied by a glass of Prosecco, to admire Oxford's sights from the water. The 40-minute cruise is followed by a delicious 3-course meal.

The Old Bank Hotel's excellent restaurant, located in the heart of the historic center, has been recognized by the Michelin guide. It offers Mediterranean-influenced cuisine in a peaceful atmosphere.
