Was pretty disappointed with the food. We ordered the cauliflower main dish but when we received it we discovered it was covered in what was easily as sweet as whip cream. When we asked the waitress about it she said that yes it's a very contested dish that some people like it and some don't. Surprised that information wasn't delivered to us before we placed the order. The atmosphere was nice and staff was friendly.

I had an amazing gluten-free three course meal as a part of my package with Oxford River Cruises. Unfortunately, the cruise was cancelled, but the meal did not disappoint. The carrot soup and sea bass were delicious. These were also the best fries I had during my short England trip. Well seasoned and thick cut. The crème brûlée was pretty solid as well. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere right on the Thames was excellent.

I don’t know what I ate. For the price I paid I expected a spectacular meal. But silly me! For 80 pounds I truly do not understand what they served me. I only came cause it was close. I will now purchase my meal from tesco

I wanted to go out for afternoon tea for my birthday and chose The Folly as they had the best ratings and I’m so glad I did! It was nice and quiet, we had our own pod outside that was kept warm with heaters, it was so cute and and a lovely atmosphere! The staff were so kind and hard working, very helpful for us. Worth every penny, it’s a lot more filling than you think! Sandwiches were amazing and unlimited tea and coffee. They even allowed me to take home the leftovers. I couldn’t recommend this place enough, I will definitely be returning!

Such a lovely restaurant on Folly bridge in Oxford by the river. Fantastic view and atmosphere, it doesn't look like you are in a city anymore. My family and I had a delicious lunch, the waiters were attentive and polite and the food was tasty well cooked and delicious. Definitely going back next time we will be in town.Dietary restrictions: The whole menu is very well made and most dishes give you the option of becoming gluten free or dairy free etc...Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs and the baby change is in the disabled toilet which is great.Wheelchair accessibility: They have an entrance dedicated for wheelchair and pushchair access.

first of all i had carrot soup with ginger it was too salty, i thought it was possible it could happen, then i had broccoli the same thing it was very salty i was very disappointed. the service was impeccable however it was very cold inside we wanted to get out as soon as
We had afternoon tea for a works party in January 2024, the food was lovely & the cocktails were great. Would have been nice to a have a few other savoury items as the only non sweet things were the sandwiches however they were delicious. We have a few allergies in our group - all were handled perfectly

We had a lovely relaxed lunch at this restaurant. Food was really impressive and the service friendly, not at all stuffy like some other posh restaurants. The restaurant has a light and airy atmosphere. All three courses that we ate were equally tasty and we enjoyed watching our cocktails being made from scratch behind the bar. Highly recommend if you are in Oxford.

Came to visit Oxford for a few days, popped in midweek. Hidden Gem. Staff brilliant, beef shin, and Seabass were exceptional. Very highly rated place. Price is high, however comparable to the quality of the meal you receive.

The place and service are nice. The food from my perspective wasn't as good. We had ? and fish and chips.
