    I love coming to the Folly, everyone is so nice, the room is quite beautiful and the food is excellent and interesting. I would come more often if it was a bit less expensive. :). Thank you.

    We always love to visit Old Parsonage and Quod when in Oxford. Both places always deliver wonderful food and ambience. The minor difference yesterday over our lunch at noon was sound of bells from the nearest church which was going on for a hour! 😂 My partner ordered 2 glasses of champagne and both times champagne was flat and second time not chilled enough. Otherwise the waiters, food, outside table were really lovely. We will definitely be back soon.

    Food was excellent but the policy that your food comes out when it’s ready and as a result your large plat comes out before the small plates is ridiculous… a kitchen should be able to pace the food better.. and not rush the patrons.. Your other establishment The Back Lane Tavern manages to pace the meal much better and one doesn’t feel hurried..
