The Horse And Groom Inn - Cherwell

My dining experience last week was delightful as we sat outdoors. The food was exceptional, and the service was prompt and welcoming. I highly suggest trying the homemade nachos - they were the best I've ever had! There is also a great selection of vegetarian options. The restaurant has a charming atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a meal or simply having a drink.

During the lockdown, we decided to try the takeaway menu at this restaurant. We opted for the Thai green chicken curry and buttermilk fried chicken, both of which were delicious. I was impressed by the coleslaw and a full salad that came with the fried chicken, not just a small garnish. The chicken was tender and the food was delivered promptly and still hot. There were enough leftovers for lunch the next day. We will definitely be ordering from this service again if the lockdown continues.

Sunday lunch is always good at the Horse and Groom, especially the Roast Beef. However, it has never tasted better than today. We are in lockdown because of the CV19 and this enterprising establishment are offering an almost full menu take away and delivery service. The meal for two arrived exactly on time, suitably well packaged. It benefited by flashing in the microwave and was absolutely delicious; splendidly generous portion of lovely tender beef with usual trimmings and superb red wine gravy. Finished off with the fabled bread and butter pudding with custard. What a great treat this meal was at this difficult time well done David and Annette, and thank you!

Myself and my Elderly Father stayed here for one night on our way across country, well what a lovely find, in the heart of beautiful Oxfordshire countryside, when we arrived we were greeted by the Duty Manager sorry cannot remember her name she showed us to our room which was up some steep narrow stairs, when we opened the door we were pleasantly surprised on how nice the room was, lovely and clean, spacious and a great ensuite bathroom although small had a nice hot shower .The room had all the mod cons, small tv, hairdryer, tea and coffee making facilities and bottles of fresh water. The bar area was warm and cozy and had a lovely atmosphere, we eat dinner in the bar which was excellent especially the Curry, delicious , the pub also had a restaurant to the rear which was lovely, we eat breakfast in there the following morning and the breakfast was excellent, must also add the duty Manageress was lovely lady, very chatty and very friendly, made you feel very welcome, all in all a lovely stay and would highly recommend this place for food and accommodation, I will definitely stay here again if in the area !!

A really pleasant experience at the pub. The room was spacious and wonderfully equipped. Nothing over the top. It and the village were cute and really relaxing. The breakfast was large and very filling, although I thought the dinner was overpriced. £12 for a small burger and about 6 chips. Staff were a little stressed and slightly robotic but other than that, the service was wonderful
