    The other reviews don't lie: this is your one-way ticket to stodgeville…read more Not that I'm not on board with that - I assure you, I am. Just, ideally, you'll head here when absolutely ravenous. The interior is decked out rather like a winter log cabin. Sheepskin, draped over each chair and cute, cosy wooden tables with white embroidered placemats. The waiting staff wear matching embroidered shirts. It reminded me of the alps/Oktoberfest. We wanted to try as much as we could fit in, so instead of mains, we ordered a selection of starters including a soup each. While the presentation was superb, I found the actual food too salty. Highlights were beetroot soup with mushroom-filled rolls in the side. And the cabbage dumplings. I wanted to give Karczma more stars but the food just didn't blow me away. I can imagine this is a fun place to bring a group in the evening, though - allowing the opportunity to tear into some hefty sharing options. And knock back a few vodkas. I'd like to come back and try the mains, perhaps the real stars of the Polish culinary show.

    A fun experience. I've visited three times now and always had a good time…read more The Karczma is in the Polish millenial centre but has its own entrance. You can find it by turning left under the bridge behind Moor St station and then taking the second road on the right. Inside you will find a cosy restaurant with a straw ceiling, wooden tables with crochet tablecloths and other traditional polish decorations. It's quite cheesy but effective. Food is hearty and trsditional, probably not much for vegetarians. We had a sharing trough for 6-8 people last time so I've tried a great deal now. The dumplings are delicious, as is the stuffed chicken. Sides of sourkraut, beetroot and potato are super too. It isn't refined cooking but it is good, hearty and fun. They have a great vodka selection too. The mint and lime is lovely to sip neat. They also have mead and polish beer. Service is warm and helpful. I visited in a group of 13 last week and they were wonderful, even giving a free drink to the birthday girl. A great experience!

    The Bakers Table - Interior of the cafe

    Wow! We learned about The Baker's Table on a Talgarth Mill brochure left at our AirBnB in Penderyn,…read moreon the other side of Brecon Beacons park... We were heading back to London the next day, and at first thought "too bad this isn't on our way home," but the next morning decided we wanted to see more of the park anyway, as well as a few other points north before our weeklong adventure adjourned... What a pleasure it was to stop here on that dreary morning! When we arrived around 10:30am, the whole place was bustling with what turned out to be a tour group of retirees, about to tour the historic adjacent mill. The setup is counter service style: order your items, take your number and choose a table (indoors or outdoors). Most of the indoor tables overlook the brook running through the mill; the outdoor tables are in the courtyard of the mill buildings. They don't have a true breakfast, per se, but they have teas, coffee/espresso drinks, breads, cakes and cookies available all day, most of which are made using grains locally harvested and milled right there. There are some gluten free options available as well. At 11:30, their lunch menu is available and features sandwiches, soup and salads, all made from locally sourced, processed and grown Welsh foods. We were still finishing up our morning coffee, enjoying the chill vibe of the place (especially after the tour group moved on - haha!) by the time lunch was available, so we decided to stick around a little longer and try it out too! After much deliberation about how to best sample their offerings (everything sounded AMAZING), we opted for a soup/sandwich combo with the ham, cheese & mustard sandwich and fresh garden pea and mint soup, along with a "board" that included salad, two cheeses, local ham, an apple, fresh cherry tomatoes, house chutney and fresh bread. So simple, but so delicious!! We ate it ALL... I can't recommend enough the sheer quality of this real, simple but delicious local food. Other items to note: Credit cards require a £10 minimum charge. Locally made gifts and gourmet food items are available for purchase. Restroom entrance is in the courtyard, but there are public toilets in the adjacent building, facing the street as well. Free Wi-Fi. Check out the Talgarth Mill Craft Shop next door if you are looking for locally made Welsh treasures to take home. Free parking (and recycling drop-off) is available a couple of short blocks away, just off the highway. The Talgarth visitor's centre across the street is there for all kinds of information about the area, or, if you'd just like to converse with the friendly locals.

    My kind of cafe! Small is beautiful. Vegetarian food, prepared by the people who owns the place and…read morecare about serving good food. Suprisingly I have not found other vegetarian places here in Oxford, although most places have vegetarian options. A good selection of salads, one was quite spicy. The owner told me that they have many families coming. The place is children friendly and prices are very reasonable. The place itself is not very fancy, but I don't need fancy when the food is so good.

    While visiting in Oxford, I wanted to find a place that specializes only in vegetarian and vegan…read morefood, though I have been lucky to find many Oxford restaurants that provide a veg options (but vegan is difficult -- veg dishes here contain cheese and eggs). I found The Magic Cafe after research. Showing up at 10am provided me a nice quiet place to read. The place was large and inviting and the chairs were comfortable. I ordered a twinings tea for a little over £1. At noon it was clear this place is a favorite for locals. It became extremely busy, especially with moms and their children. The atmosphere changed, so it was not a time to read. But it was time for my lunch. The special was: Porcini mushroom risotto with bruschetta and salad £5.70 The meals of the day were: Lentil and vegetable lasagna £3.50 Sweet potato and coconut soup £3.00 Full salad 4.50 Half plate salad 3.00 Quarter 1.50 They serve the food right from the counter. (While drinking tea earlier, they were working very diligently.) I ordered the veggie lasagna. It contained lentils, zucchini, and carrots. It was piping warm out of the large casserole dish they serve from and had a great flavor. It was delicious! I also ordered a brownie based on other reviews. It was tasty with a noticeable hint of espresso. The employees were sweet and the locals are friendly; I joined a pair at a table due to the place filling up fast. If I lived in Oxford I would return to this place again.
