Black Boy - Piatti

Brunch was excellent value and the service exemplary. Crispy duck salad was especially enjoyed, as were starters of avocado on toast and quid. Will certainly return soon.

Friendly staff, good food and a lovely garden at the back on a sunny day. We have always found the food to be excellent and there’s a good selection of vegetarian options

Booked for a two night stay and what a wonderful surprise! Located in a quiet outreach of Headington, the Black Boy delivered everything we needed. The evening menu was hearty and wonderful, the breakfast (included in the room rate) was fantastic. The staff were friendly and very attentive. The parking was free, which was very good, and the beer choices were varied which included some good local selections

Stayed for 2 nights recently, the room was lovely, clean and spacious. We had dinner one night which was excellent. The breakfast was included in the room rate and was very good quality, you have to try the poached eggs! We were looked after very well by the manager Sarah, nothing was too much trouble for her, including bringing me her own Apple Watch charger when she realised I’d left mine at home. Will stay here again and recommend it to anyone who asks!

My husband and I stayed here overnight for an early appointment at the John Radcliffe Hospital. It was in walking distance and a very convenient location. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was exceptional both the dinner and the breakfast. The room was clean and warm and the bed very comfy. The only slight criticism I have is that the room was a bit dark. Brighter bulbs and maybe another lamp would have helped. Would certainly stay here again, and would recommend to others.

There is very little parking at the pub and the local roads are permit parking only. We had to park in a public car park a few hundred yards away on a pouring wet evening. Once we had arrived we found the pub very welcoming, the staff were friendly and helpful. After we were sat in the restaurant we started to notice the food other diners were enjoying it all looked very nice. We ordered the garlic prawn pil pil and the smoked trout, followed by marinated roast chicken and pork belly porchetta. It was delicious and the portions were generous. I'd happily recommend The Black Boy, just take into account the parking.

Had an overnight stay at this lovely pub, which had 5 modern bedrooms. Located in trendy Headington, we were greeted with a smile by the staff and shown to our room, which was very well appointed, clean and had everything we needed for a short stay, including a complimentary glass of Sloe gin !!. Free parking was available, which was very convenient, and as we were going to a concert in the city centre, we just caught a 10 minute bus ride into Oxford. We did not manage to have lunch or dinner there, but our breakfast was really really good, and it was clear to see and taste that they use local produce. We will certainly return to have a lunch when passing through this area again.

Please sort out your open fire! There is not enough up draught up the chimney, and lots of smoke comes into the bar and restaurant. My clothes reeked of it and my coat is still completely smoked out, even after hanging it outside for two days. My friends had bad throats afterwards. The smoky chimney was a bit of a problem last winter but this winter it’s a complete turn off. We can’t come back until next spring! And it’s a shame because the ambience is great and mostly the food is good, though the batter on the fish needs rethinking it was soggy next to the fish. And please sort out the waiting staff! The woman who owns the pub is lovely and friendly and helpful. But the others were offhand,... Visualizza piatti
