Really busy the day we went but didn't wait long for food. Atmosphere was nice.

Overall, this should be a 5-star review, but there is something of concern I must raise. CCTV in the toilets. I have never seen or maybe noticed CCTV in toilets located in a public house before. The camera overlooks one of the urinals as well. (One of two, the other was out of order). There are no clear signs that I noticed. Surely, this should be brought to our attention by way of a large brightly lit sign. I asked a member of staff, and they commented that it was to monitor drug use. Whilst someone is using a urinal? Surely, people who use drugs in toilets use them in cubicle, should the cameras not be monitoring activities in the cubicles? I am not sure this is a complaint with GDPR. This is something I will look into and report the business if I suspect a data breach.

Visited Wallingford with some friends. Lovely town. Found this amazing place. Perfect atmosphere, amazing service, they loved our friends dog. Food was 10 out of 10!! Delish!! Had a wood fired pizza and husband fish and chips… yum! Will be back.

Excellent service. But food came out immediately, so not freshly prepared for their Sunday roast. The beige chairs as you arrive look like you’re arriving in a 1980s nightclub. But apart from that it was okay. Excellent service.

This was a really great place. Great food and a lovely welcoming atmosphere. First rate service. Highly recommended.

It was a really nice place but I was a bit loud and my meal was pretty underwhelming, although I had the cookie dough desert which was very yumKid-friendliness: children's menu with colouring

I visited The Old Post Office with three friends this evening. It's obviously very popular as it was very busy at the bar when we walked in, which added to the atmosphere. We were shown to our table quickly which we had booked in advance. Tables were nicely distanced from each other, staff were polite and friendly and service was good. We didn't have a long wait for food or drinks. The restaurant was clean and there was plenty to choose from on the menu. My pizza was one of the best pizzas I've had, absolutely delicious and very filling. The toilets were upstairs and clean.I would highly recommend this restaurant, we had a thoroughly enjoyable evening and look forward to visiting again.

We had an amazing dinner by the fireplace. The Lebanese fries were fantastic!
Stopped for a drink on a cold wet eveningLovely and warm with a fire going and a nice bar area.After seeing some good looking food pass us on the way to the tables, we’ve now booked for dinner in a couple of weeks.

Lovely place, but way over priced. Been coming to the OPO for several years being a local lad that's moved away. Think it will be my last visit. Whilst being a popular place it's quite frankly massively over priced. While the drinks are reasonable, unless you indulge in an Espresso Martini at a tenner and containing barely any alcohol, the food is now at best worthy of half the priced charged. I really do not paying for good food and great service, but for example a Skotch egg starter, which was again a tenner but being half and egg on a bed of a few leaves is ridiculous. Likewise the shoulder of beef, consisted of a couple of spoonfuls of very lumpy mash, a single carrot cut into four and a lump of beef the size of a tennis ball, attached to a much larger lump of bone is again ludicrous. Very dissatisfied with it and really do not understand how they can justify the cost. Last visit for my family and will seek other places to eat during our family visits back home

Popped in for breakfast. Service was very good, friendly staff. Food came quickly and hot, and was very tasty. It would be nice to have the option of black pudding as it's my favourite.

Pretty also ran as an establishment. Friendly staff, good beer ?. Did not eat there but has a very extensive menu.

Ordered x2 toasted Ciabatta sandwiches (x1 Aubergine & Crispy Artichoke + x1 Prosciutto Ham & Cheese). The Ciabatta was stale, the Aubergine came without any artichoke, and neither came with their accompanying side salad garnish. They also have the cheek to add a 10% service charge automatically (☹️). After complaining, we were given a partial discount ?but, they gave a full refund onto my debit card and then took the new, reduced payment again. The refund is not immediate, so I've now paid for sub-standard food twice (until I get my refund in 3-5 working days)..... be wary!
