During our week in England, this was our only time we partook in actual English food. I had a really scrummy Rarebit with an onion marmalade and some crisps along with some local lemonade. It felt really great to be there and we enjoyed our visit, albeit brief, in Stowe-on-the-Wold.

I wasn't hungry but wanted something warm on a cold, on-and-off rainy day; so I only ordered a savory cheese and red onion scone. It was okay - not too good but not bad either. Cashier manning the counter was friendly. Interiors are part modern and bright (in the dining area where pastries were shown) and part a-bit-old (in the other side of the ground floor as well as upstairs). It looks inviting from the outside.

It's right on the High Street, so is convenient to get to and very easy to find. The menu has many choices, including toasties (grilled cheese) and cold sandwiches (tip--get the tomato chutney!), salads, pasties, and more. I recommend getting the chutney and cheddar toastie. Pure comfort serves up with a small salad and crisps. If you want something sweet, they have you covered with lots of delicious treats for tea. There are many beverages on offer, including all of your coffee beverage favorites. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or teatime. The service and ambiance are bright and cheerful. It's a great place to take a refreshing pause from your shopping.

Two of the variations were not being baked anymore - which we found odd for the time. We ordered a traditional but realized after digging in, the pasty is full of potatoes now. The ones we had in Salisbury several years ago had a very complementary ratio of potato to meat. Crust still flaky and good and staff was super friendly.

In fact, this coffee house, and the one across the road, are not only claiming to be the oldest in Oxford, or even in England, but pretty much the world.

We had just passed vaults and garden but kept walking since their prices were sky high! Luckily, he brought me here and I have to say I plan on frequenting this cafe quite often! It's on high street near Magdalen, so very close to the library! I ordered a mozzarella, tomato, and basil panini which cost an affordable £5.95 compared to some other cafes charging £12+ (yikes!) it came out super warm, oozing melted cheese, with a side of salad and crisps. It was the perfect quick bite while it lightly rained outside. Love the cafe, highly recommend.

They went so well with the crispy bacon and croissant. My experience while eating it was indescribable, and I was frantic at that time--walking briskly towards my next destination while holding shopping bags and a city map--so when the croissant omelette bacon forced me to take a moment to enjoy the flavors and texture of the food I was eating, I knew I had to write about it on Yelp. The canelé also stopped me dead in my tracks, only because I didn't recognize the spices/ingredients. It was my first time eating one, and it was a delight. I immediately wished I had bought two instead of one. The large pistachio macaron, I swear, gave me a mouthgasm. Oh... my... goodness, was it good! I mean, how can it not when it's pistachio-flavored AND huge? As for the Quiche Lorraine, I unfortunately waited too long to eat it, so it was cold and a bit stiff by the time I ate it. It was still good, but I know it could've been better warm. Customer service was satisfactory. The space of this place is a bit tight due to all the tables and chairs there. They prepare the coffee perpendicular and to the left of the pastries/cash register.

We were sat upstairs near the window and it was nice and quiet there. Everything we ordered was delicious and we enjoyed our time here. Scone with cream and jam. I ordered plain scone. It was delicious. Warm fresh scone served with yummy cream and jam. I also ordered the chocolate cake tea with the scone and it was surprisingly good. Had some chocolate flavor and tasted good with milk. Hubby ordered Mac and cheese and it was served piping hot with a slice of garlic bread. Pretty good too! Kiddo ordered hot chocolate with marshmallows and a chocolate cake. The cake itself was soft and moist and not overly sweet. Went well with the tea and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate seemed standard and she seemed to like it. The place is not overly pricey for a touristy place. Service was also good and friendly.

I would definitely recommend trying Lucy's when you're in the Cotswolds.
