If I were rating this place purely on food and service it would be getting a 2.5 - 3. A few of us had starters, I went for the baked Camembert to share, that was nice but you can't really go wrong with it can you? They didn't bring out any plates for us until it was too late and we we're all pretty messy! My bf had the homemade scotch egg which he was really looking forward to but alas! It was dry and the piccalilli was also disappointing. For the mains everyone went for a roast except from one fish and chips. The fish and chips was described as a fillet of reasonably sourced cod weighing between eight to ten ounces, but I'd say it was the tail end of it, the fish being very thin and dry. You also don't expect to find a LOT bones in your fish and chips so that wasn't very pleasant for him either. It had a nice golden batter though, but I suppose that's irrelevant when the contents are disagreeable. The mushy peas were watery and vile tasting, everyone agreed. The Veggie's were pleased with their nut roasts and the rest of us had beef. I specifically asked for mine to be rare and was pretty pleased with it but the rest of the beefs were a bit tough and gristly. The vegetables came on a plate to share between three which I always hate because as some of you may have already established - I'm a pig! They were nothing to write home about, my pet hate is diced carrots and they were unseasoned, cold and shrivelled :( It would have been nice if they'd have cleaned the tables up after each course as it started to look a bit grubby and cluttered. The puds weren't fab either. The waitress's were very sweet with my little boy though and allowed him to take some orders and even see the kitchen and chef so that was a nice touch. The staff are very accommodating. There's a good amount of parking space at the back. All in all, I wouldn't make a big fuss of the food but it is such a lovely pub to come and have a drink in if you're ever in the picturesque little village of Wanborough. It's a nice place to take a stroll and give your legs a stretch.

It's a nice pub and establishment. When you enter there's a bar and some cozy indoor seating with natural light. Nothing fancy. There's also a wonderful outdoor patio, which is where we sat. There's two floors to it and most of the seating is covered. The service by workers were all friendly and nice. We ordered with them then paid at the bar. We shared Duck and Orange Pate. It was thick, tasty, and complex but well balanced. I had the Crispy Chicken Sandwich--the mixed leaves were tasty, the chicken crispy, and honestly it was a filling sandwich. I would say I'd like more in between the bread but it did fill me up. You've got plenty of pub options in Burford, but we quite enjoyed our time at The Angel. It's off Witney Street and a nice place to dine!

I know that great grandfather's back millennia helped build the Burford bridge over the little river that's at the foot of high Street and so it was fun seeing all these places and having lunch there and thinking about my families connection to the town. Burford is considered to be the gateway to the cot waltz. The cot walls has an old area that has changed for a little over the hundreds of years and has amazing architecture and houses and farms. It's surrounded by rolling Hills and Dells and little rivers running through it. Burford is considered the gateway to the cot walls because it showcases several styles of very old architecture. that's still an excellent condition. If you have questions about what to do while you're there go to the Tolsey house. But I have to say there is no question that when I got there And it was lunchtime that I selected the angel at Burford to eat the fine food that they serve there. The staff quality of the food everything was amazing. I will return time and time again.

It would be near impossible to end up here without planning to be. The restaurant is homely and rustic with it's decor and chalk board - it's like a pub. But you don't read my reviews for my architectural appreciation. The food. The food here is pretty great. No difficulties recommending everything at all. I've had my fair share of bresola, crayfish, gravadlax, steak, pork belly and everything I've sampled punches well above its weight. My last meal was the gravadlax starter and the pork belly mains. The gravadlax is well complimented with a mustard dressing and a fresh side salad, being a seafood monster, I was pleased with this starter. It's accompanied by rustic bread and some wonderful butter. The pork belly, however, was a bit of a show-stopper. The pork had clearly been roasted for a very long time, the fat between the skin and meat was already oozing out. It tasted delightful too. My only minor minor qualm, was that i would've personally preferred the skin harder, it was a tad chewier than I would've liked. But the meat and the fat was on point. Coming from London, I've gotten used to small portions and extortionate prices. Royal Oak flips this concept on its head, why can't you have large portions of delicious food at reasonable prices. The Royal Oak ticks all my boxes for a high end pub with great food. But it lacks any wow factor, the food is rustic and well executed, but their's no visual or sensational awe about eating here. It's never a let down though.
