| What they do, they do pretty well - good ales and food that looked well worth ordering - it's just all a bit safe - focus groups have obviously been all over it like a rash and although care has gone into it all, the result is a bit clinical. They must be raking it in. BoehmBawerk - 25 Dec 2011 08:55 |
| This place is brilliant. It is unashamedly a gastropub; just drinking here is a waste. They do real ale, and you can have three 1/3 pint tasters for 3.10 GBP which is not bad. The food however is exceptional. For the first time ever I envy people who live in Oxford. Service is friendly, the chef is amazing, the clientele are happy. Seems odd reviewing this place here though. I wouldn't really go for a beer in the evening if you know what I mean. dry_riser_inlet - 1 May 2011 14:01 |
| Out with the dodgy coves in tracksuits and in with fine dining and fine ales. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly on a Sunday lunchtime visit with he friendly staff happy to advise on the menu. One minor complaint was that two of us ordered the same dish, roast pigeon, and one came overdone with the other a little too rare for my friend's liking. The bar billiards table is ideal entertainment as you digest. cheesyal - 9 Apr 2010 00:12 |
| Was looking forward to eating here after hearing good things about it. Sadly it was shut last night (Sunday 3rd). thomashenry - 4 Jan 2010 15:06 |
| I recently had dinner here and the food atmosphere and service were fantastic. I had the Venison (£14) with duck fat potato cake and red cabbage and my wife had the fish Stew (£6). Both were beautifully cooked by chef Tony Abarno and were easily the best dishes i have eaten in an Oxford restaurant. It's a fantastic place to go either for dinner or just a drink as i did the following night! I am overjoyed Oxford does at last have a 'great restaurant!!' I have no doubt that the Magdalen Arms will soon gain the deserved reputation as Oxford's best restaurant. adamrufus - 29 Oct 2009 12:05 |
