Although coffee is very bitter and the cakes are expensive for what you get. There's a lot of better places in Banbury just around the corner from here. They don't allow dogs in the cafe which isnt much of a problem as long as you have somebody with you, but in colder weather it's not as nice. But they do allow them in the outdoor table bit and did tell us this. The problem with the drinks we ordered was that we got iced drinks and they split and wouldn't mix so for me all I could take was strong bitter coffee. probably won't come back.

Quite simply, the best coffee shop in Banbury…read more It's only been a fixture for a year or so and the franchise is not well known out of its native Oz, but this is truly the best destination for a cuppa in town. The franchise owner is lovely, and often on hand to answer questions about your cup of joe. There's a vast range of teas and coffees, as well as hot chocolate and gorgeous blended ice drinks. To eat, you'll find reasonably prices sandwiches, cakes, muffins and more. Kids are well catered for, with toys, crayons, magazines and even a free babycinno is you buy a normal drink. There's also a free half hour of wi-fi for all customers - brilliant if you want to check a few cheeky e mails at lunchtime!

Banbury actually has a lot of options for someone looking for a quick bite of lunch or a cuppa and…read morea slice of cake. But The Granary is one of my favourite spots and one that could be easily missed if someone didn't tell you about it. I've been several times - for breakfast and for lunch and was struck each time by what a great value it is. Good food, plenty of it and a very reasonable price. Last visit - a lunch visit - I had the chicken mayo, bacon & pesto panini while my husband had the Granary club. We split an order of chips (because an order of chips is pretty darned sizable). Both sandwiches were delicious and very satisfying. The staff were friendly and welcoming, nothing is any trouble. Why is it so easy to miss? Because it is on Butcher's Lane (just off the marketplace as well as opening on to the High Street) and the lane can look at first glance as if it's just the back of buildings but no - there's shops and eateries down there. Go on and head down to the Granary. You won't be disappointed.

A good range of baguettes, wraps and sandwiches, made to your specifications. Their chinese chicken is lovely! Very cheap considering the quality, and perfect for lunch on the run.

Wasn't a fan of the sausage rolls, very bland and mushy. Texture was more like seasoned mash rather than meat. Small space inside, a table or two outside. Takeaway or sit-in for a little more. Owners are eager to chat up customers. For me they came across a little condescending. Looks like they have regulars and clearly try to be friendly
