Beautiful Location, a must see, very busy at peak times, don't go on a Bank holiday. Wonderful home-cooked fresh local food & freshly baked goodies , lots of choice friendly & efficient service .

Richard Harris

Excellent coffee , tea , soups & vegetarian food . Long tables like in traditional coffee houses of old. Lovely interior. Free WiFi , but you can't use laptops between certain lunch hours to save space.

Wow, amazing place and fantastic spot for lunch . Make it your first stop for food. Can find a queue here but moves pretty quickly. We had the Rarebit and it was delish!

Valerie S

Lovely and historical spot to grab tea and scones (with a variety of jam choices!). Either to sit outside or in. Great scenery either way. Quintessential oxford experience.

Ана Лековић

Fresh food , nice scones , perfect for lunch in summer cause it's only place in centre I saw that has outside seating (and the English never have aircon). Beware of the lovely bees ???? though ????

Bryan Clark

Terrific scones , coffee , and tea - in a friendly , warm space tucked into a building from the 1320s. Way better than any cafe along the main stretch nearby.

Frances Brightman

Lovely cafe in very unique surroundings. A great selection for vegetarians/vegans and those with food intolerances. Can get very busy indeed though, and you may need to share a table.

Ozgen Ozkan

Chloe Khor

Come earlier to enjoy the quiet ambience.. totally in love w the cafe . Good coffee served here, the full English breakfast is good and generous portion .

Judith Earnshaw

This is a gorgeous place to visit, historic ~~~ in one of the most beautiful scenic parts of Oxford near The Sheldonian ~~~ the food is excellent ~~~ go visit <3

Clara Eloy

Had a great tea and scone . My friend’s hot chocolate was first very watery and then way too chocolatety.. It’s very busy

Yuuki Ohta

Had Sri Lankan tofu curry (V), which was mild and tasty. Good portions. You can use the same loyalty card here, Will's deli , and Alpha bar .

Martin Eden

The beef and quince with roast potatoes tasted like excellent homemade food . Lovely English cuisine, short menu, reasonable prices.

Maria Lambert

Lovely café in very old traditional Oxford style. I only had a cup of coffee but next time I will definitely go for the lunch which looked yummy.

Libbie Cramp

Their cooked breakfasts are devine, topped off with the gorgeous outdoor seating with a clear view of the amazing oxford camera . Perfect!

Philip Seifi

The best cafe with food, WiFi and power outlets in Oxford, in a unique setting with history.

Francesca Krihely

The tea and scones are lovely. Staff leave something to be desired, but I think I could attribute that to a busy Saturday. Lovely cafe regardless

Abeer Al-Mokbel

They have very good vegetarian lasagna . However, not all the options on the menu are available! Great desserts as well .

Fathima Dada

Built in the 14th century, first room to house the university senate and now a cosy cafe with delicious food!

Kazem Edmond

This is a great place. A must see. But it's NOT cheap . I don't know why FourSquare gives it a single £. It's moderately expensive for what you're getting.

Haesung Kim

Good place to work when it's not crowded :) they do student discount so show your bod card. Tea and scone recommended!

Ben Prudden

Tasty food, especially lunch . Slightly overpriced, but OK because the food comes from local sources . The garden on a summer lunchtime is idyllic.

Jess Parker

I wanted to try all the food but I had the fresh scones which were really big and yummy!

Patricia Zhou

Great Full English Breakfast . Very cute location, get there early on Sunday to avoid the crowds!

Laura del Pino

The best scones in Oxford. Lunch meals are healthy and hearthy.

You should definitely visit church 's tower :) Cafe is okay, would not recommend cappuccino , probably tea is better as most of the customers had tea . :)
