"Forget the chain restaurant blandness of Bella Italia and Jamie’s Italian (which won’t be around much longer, anyway) and head to one of Mamma Mia’s two establishments, in the quiet terraced streets of Jericho in west Oxford or in Summertown to the north. It’s small, so service is quick, it’s good value and it retains the easy, under-branded charm of a family restaurant. 102 Walton St, Oxford OX2 6EB."
"Mamma Mia Pizzeria is considered as Oxford's best Italian, Pizza and Pasta restaurant. The setting is also an authentic Italian ambience as they are very child-friendly. At Mamma Mia Pizzeria, the staff is wonderful, happy, friendly and would definitely cater to your every need."

"Area: In the Gloucester Green area, next to St Peter’s College. You could argue that this is an Oxford restaurant, but Bbuona calls itself a pizza bar and serves up some of the best – and reasonably priced – Italian cuisine in the city. This pizza bar offers ultimate customisation, you can even choose your organic flour base."
"This Oxford cafe serves excellent Italian coffee, pizza and Aperol Spritz cocktails. I spent a lovely evening in summer 2020 dining outside on tables laid across Gloucester Green. Pizza is served by the slice from breakfast and fermented with yeast for 72 hours for the perfect texture."
"This quirky pub, a fine local hidden away down an unassuming residential street, was built in 1869 for workers from the nearby Oxford University Press. Inside, it appears wholly traditional with tankards on the shelves and beer mats and posters on the walls, until you notice the train set on the ceiling and the delectable smell of cooking. Ale enthusiasts crowd the bar and diners huddle around tightly-packed tables at the rear to sample the traditional French bistro menu."
"Head to The Old Bookbinders (17-18 Victor Street; 01865 553549), a gem of a pub hidden down a backstreet, for a dinner of surprisingly good French cuisine. Spend your evening drinking here or wander back up through Jericho for some live music at The Jericho Tavern (56 Walton Street; 01865 311775) where Radiohead and Supergrass launched their careers."
