    We had afternoon tea to celebrate my daughter's birthday. The sandwiches, cakes and scones were delicious! The lady who served us was very kind and helpful, she recommended us what to have and also packed the last cakes, that we could not finish, to bring home. The atmosphere was very nice, the restaurant was pretty much full, but it was not very noisy (apart from one group who came briefly to the bar to then sit at a large table at the other side). We sat at a table by the window, with view to the High Street and Queen's college, where the sun was hitting to bring the walls to a golden colour. It was a memorable afternoon at a great location, that we will remember for years to come. Thanks, QUOD!

    Met a friend for lunch. Quod was very busy but service was excellent. My favourite butternut risotto was a special and a nice glass of wine - perfect. It’s quite noisy but I like the buzz.

    We were in a hurry to have lunch before a tour of Oxford. They were so gracious to let us have our reserved table early, and the waiter was kind to recommend dishes that were quick to prepare. Our food was superb. The artichoke soup and chicken salad were delicious, the bread fresh and warm, and our friend’s carpaccio was a perfect lunch. Thank you, Quod, for accommodating us.

    As always a very pleasant experience, I liked the choices on the fixed menu, I would have loved my favourite oysters but at £4.10 each I decided against! Staff friendly and helpful as usual.
