Service was great, the menu is varied enough you can try some different things, and the wine/cocktail list is good as well. Def have a reservation for weekend nights as the place is bustling. The lamb chops are outstanding for dinner, as is the fish du jour. For breakfast you can't go wrong with the full English breakfast or the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Get a French Press of coffee, a bowl of fruit and the newspaper and take your time watching the bustle on High Street. Amazing location on High Street right across from Radcliffe Camera. Interior has old world feel to it, and there is some really interesting art work on walls, keeping the eclectic feeling of the hotel itself at heart. It's a bit expensive compared to other places near it, but gracious and solid experience. I'd go back for a nice sit down breakfast, lunch, dinner or afternoon tea even if I wasn't staying at the Old Bank.

I've been to The Breakfast Club in Westgate twice now, and both times I've enjoyed the food I've…read morebeen served there. The service in the UK in general is not the most fantastic service that I've had, but The Breakfast Club's waiters and waitresses are relatively polite and friendly! While I was there this past trip, I got the breakfast sandwich deal (sorry, I've forgotten what it's called on the menu by now). I thought that it was one of the most value-for-money deals, as you'd get a sandwich, two hash browns, and a drink for £8.50. The food did take a while to arrive, but it wasn't an unreasonable amount of time to wait. The food was tasty and hot, and I did not regret my decisions (though I struggled with how I was going to eat the sandwich without getting it all over myself). Aside from the food, I really like that they have a lot of discounts and they seem to be quite integrated into the community (working with other organisations, etc.). One thing that I disliked, though, is that when they give you your bill, they note an "optional service charge", and though you don't have to pay for it, they include it in the "total". Honestly, I'm not opposed to paying the service charge, but I dislike the way it's done almost sneakily! Anyway, for those of you who might be miffed paying a service charge, now you know--it's optional. Overall, I would recommend The Breakfast Club, and am looking forward to trying other things on their menu!

This little restaurant was fairly close to our apartments, so we came here for breakfast one Sunday…read morewhile early on in our stay in Oxford. It's nicely decorated and fairly spacious. My friends and I had little trouble getting a spot, thankfully, because we were starving and still learning the city. They do have a small art gallery in-venue, which is fun to look at though was prohibitively expensive for a couple of students, lol. The menu is accessible but pretty small, and I wasn't too taken with what I ordered. The prices seemed pretty high, too, especially when one didn't really like the food. Service was also pretty slow and a little churlish. Overall, this place stands out as one of my least favorite dining experiences of my stay, but YMMV.
