The Burrow Coffee House

For once Paulicarus and Jorvic made the wrong choice. The large bar is undergoing a major refurb but clearly aims for a younger market. My Fullers London Pride was just about OK but the Pinot was awful and left undrunk / poured down the drain. Large noisy interior with TV's blasting out music?!. Picnic tables out front on the street.

Bar staff were friendly and prices not too bad but the downstairs toilet was absolutely disgusting we were in there early in the day so it definitely hadn't been cleaned and if it has they need a new cleaner! Apparently it has been recently refurbished but I couldn't see what was different apart from an awful carpet!

My wife and I, recently celebrated our daughter’s 18th birthday at The Cherwell Pub, with various family members and friends. We cannot express enough how grateful we are to Landlord Joe, also - Lillie, and Sami for making the evening so very special! From the moment we arrived, they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect for us. The atmosphere was inviting, and our daughter, family and friends had an amazing time. Joe, Lillie, and Sami were incredibly attentive, making sure that nothing was too much trouble. Their warmth and dedication truly set the tone for a memorable evening. We highly recommend The Cherwell Pub not just for a couple of drinks, but also as a fantastic venue for celebrations. Thank you all so much for the unforgettable night! Best wishes Chris, Bow and Naming

Today was the 2nd time in the last 4 weeks that we have been for breakfast at the Cherwell. I myself would not have returned as the last experience was cold beans, cold plate undercooked dry mushrooms that had not seen a cooking pan. My partner was starving today and wanted the nearest place for breakfast. A total bad decision. Again cold plates but the worst thing was fried eggs that had either been cooked yesterday or very early before the pub opened at 9am. The 4 fried eggs were rubber, burnt to a very dark crisp, on the bottom hard as hard boiled eggs.. I told the staff but they only said oh we will let the cooking staff now. When this place was a Weatherspoons it was spot on for all meals. We will now only go to the Exchange in Banbury for food from now on. Bullet yolks and black on the bottom is not acceptable . If you want a very unenjoyable breakfast go to the Cherwell😢 Any cook or chef should know how to cook a perfect runny egg that is required for a full English! One star was for the Americano coffee. Following contact from the manager at The Cherwell who apologised for our bad experience of breakfast on the 17th April we were invited back for a complementary meal. We returned today, 25th April and had a complementary breakfast each. I also took my older uncle for whom I paid for a vegetarian breakfast. Unfortunately we won't be retuning in the future. The sausages on the plates of both my partner and I were cremated. I had to remove the first piece of the end of the sausage from my mouth as it was so hard and crunchy due to being extremely overcooked. On cutting open the sausages it was obvious that they had been either totally overcooked or reheated a number of times. Please see the picture attached. Dissapointingly whilst the mushrooms on the two full English were cooked, the mushrooms on the vegetarian breakfast were dried out and uncooked. Again see picture attached. We will not be returning to The Cherwell. Thanks to the manageress for trying to rectify the issue we had last time but it's obvious that the standard of cooking is below par.
