    Helpful tips: They have a student discount! This is an adorable cafe, and one that I really, really wanted to love. Customer service is wonderful, drinks and food are good, atmosphere is wonderful (music choice and natural lighting)! It's a great place to study. My one qualm is the fact that they cook food on the first floor where all the seating areas are (there are also some in the basement but that means no natural lighting), meaning that there are a lot of grease fumes. It gets in your hair, your clothes, and can be hard to breathe in if you're sensitive to oil fumes, especially because it's a small cafe. I'd love to come back, but I've been here twice and have had to leave earlier than I like because I simply couldn't stand it. If you're not sensitive to those things, this is otherwise a wonderful cafe.

    This is a really cute cafe! I love the outdoor seating, though it does fill up quite a bit. The staff is also really nice, and there is quite an array of food and drinks you can order. Also a really great place to get work done. I personally haven't tried their chai, but I've heard good things about it. Will hopefully be back soon!

    Such exciting decor and atmosphere. You can't help but want to stop in just to look around. The…read morefalafel wrap platter and the halloumi wrap platter are both fantastic and I'd recommend either of those, especially the halloumi. The real treat is the Lebanese hot chocolate which is quite possibly the best hot chocolate in Oxford. Atmosphere: 4.5 stars Food: 4.5 stars Lebanese spiced hot chocolate: 5 stars

    Comptoir Libanais has become, since my initial visit 10 years ago to their South Kensington…read morelocation, a chain of at least 24 restaurants. I've now only seen two of their restaurants but with their colorful, stylish, vibrant decor they are immediately recognizable. The branding is excellent. The Oxford location of Comptoir Libonais sits on the outside edge of a big Westfield Mall and though the decor immediately identifies it, there was something very tired about it. It felt less special and was less pristine than it should have been. Tables were left uncleared for far too long after guests left. My wine glass arrived dirty, with a very small pour (replaced with a large pour, as ordered, and a clean glass when I pointed it out). It took far too long for anyone to come to my table. Despite good food the collection of missteps left a negative impression, like nobody who cares is actually watching over this outpost. This would easily be a 4-star review were it based on food alone but there is no escaping that it is the collection of a dining experience that influences one's overall feelings about a place. Comptoir Libonais Oxford could and should be doing a far better job. (Note: 12.5% service fee automatically added to bill)
