Farmshop - Cherwell

This restaurant is fantastic! The interior is charming and the staff are very friendly. We decided to have afternoon tea, which is served from 3pm. You can't make a reservation, but we had no trouble getting a seat. The sandwiches, cakes, and scones were all delicious. The portion size was just right, not too big like some afternoon teas can be. We also treated ourselves to some Prosecco.

A visit to Bicester is made even better by kicking off the day with a fantastic breakfast at this particular Farmshop location. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure you have all you need. My personal favorite is the eggs Benedict, but everything I have tried is consistently fresh and delicious. This restaurant is an ideal spot to grab a bite before a day of shopping.

We arrived to find plenty of available tables, which was a good sign. Unfortunately, our server didn't seem too happy. The food arrived very quickly, with a decent selection for vegans. However, the food was only warm and quite bland, which was disappointing as I had been looking forward to trying the Soho Group.

Amazing food, the best tiramisu I’ve had in my life. And the service from Enrico couldn’t be faulted, he made the experience personal and time I needed anything he was there immediately. Absolutely brilliant experience thank you Enrico

Very disappointed over this. Lunch was okay but found plates to be cool which meant the food therefore cooled rapidly before finishing. Whilst this possibly should have mentioned before, being in the company of others, it was not appropriate, so it was decided to reduce...the level of the gratuity along with a quiet word at the end of the meal. However, when requesting the bill, it was noted the discretionary charge had automatically been added. On asking for this charge to be removed, as it was discretionary, I found myself being challenged, then reprimanded by the manager, leaving me feeling annoyed and embarrassed. The term ‘discretionary’ is defined as a ‘choice’ on behalf of an individual (in this case the customer) and should NOT be regarded as a mandatory payment. (If you want to increase revenue increase your prices Secondly NEVER challenge customers in this manner, it is distasteful and rude!
