Went here with the boyff and my dad for lunch the day after Boxing Day…read more It was relatively busy with two large groups. We picked our table and sat down, the waiter seemed a bit short/abrupt initially but then he was fine. We picked our food. Starters were Minced lamb koftas, flat mushroom with cheese and mixed veg and filo pastry parcels with feta cheese and spinach. Dad was impressed with his mushroom and said it was "very good indeed", the lamb "yeah it was nice, standard" and the parcels were fair enough, although the salad bed they were on looked like the lettuce had been left out over night. For the mains, 2 x Tuna peppered steaks and 1 x chicken shish. The tuna was good enough the men said although it was just a piece of fish and weird it was served with frozen chips that had been cooked in fat. There was no veg/salad with the tuna. Chicken shish was good and cooked very well. We ordered extra sides humus and tzatziki - wasn't over then moon with either of them to be fair. Bread was delicious though. So, all in all, good starters, average/fair mains, blurg sides. Service ended up being good by the end. Would go back but wouldn't trample the masses to get there.

The first point to make about this gem of a place is the service and the atmosphere, I have never…read morefelt so welcome to a place, the smiling faces and the professionalism in the service makes it all wroth wile to sit just a little longer, very friendly place indeed. When it comes to the food, the only thing I have to say about it is if it wasn't for the passing traffic and houses outside the window I would think I'm eating somewhere in the mediterranean, the chefs have captured the taste well, and on every visit to Isot feels like a trip to the mediterranean. A note on their good selection of wine also needs a mention. All-in-all Isot is a place that attracts me and my family a few times a week happily.

Once you've had his food, it will be hard for you to not miss it. For the days to come, I shall await with alacrity our next visit to Oxford, and most definitely, to Oxford's Grill. Teşekkür ederim!

There is no car park or off street parking in the area so I would suggest using the Civic Centre car park or the Multi-Storey behind Marks and Spencers. The restaurant is of traditional style, decorated like a real Greek taverna. There are 2 parts, the small intimate front part and a larger heated conservatory area at the back. The food is excellent, I would recommend Kliftico (not sure how to spell this) and the prices are very reasonable. Cypiot beer is served. Drinks cost a standard price. I would recommend this place, it has a good atmosphere and is frequented by locals and Greek nationals.

We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. We…read moredecided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!
