The Best Oxford Markets For Food & Shopping - A Local's Guide
"This riverside pub, situated a little way from the station, is one of the city’s best-kept secrets, along with its sister restaurant round the corner, The Porterhouse. The menu offers brilliant Scotch eggs — as good as the esteemed Harwood Arms in the capital — along with seasonal mains such as venison steak and juniper butter and wild boar and lentil pie with celeric mash. An excellent-value £7 lunch special is sadly no more, but it’s hardly bank-breaking amounts even now, and the double gin and tonics for £3.50 are the best value in Oxford."
"The quirky gastropub is situated on the banks of the Isis, on Osney Island in Oxford. Originally the Waterman when it opened in 1871, this pub has undergone a thorough overhaul recently, including a change of name, and is now much more food-orientated with a completely vegetarian and vegan menu.

"The Anchor has a new large outdoor terrace which looks great , we look forward to trying it out in the summer!. Their new menu features charcoal grill dishes and kebabs, plus classic fish & chips and roast dinners. 📍 2 Hayfield Rd, Oxford OX2 6TT, 01865 510282 theanchoroxford.com"
"The Magic Café is a bit of an east Oxford institution, serving up good portions of tasty vegetarian food to suit even the tightest of student budgets. The friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere mean The Magic Café is a very popular lunchtime haunt, and with a menu that changes daily, it’s not hard to see why students and locals come back time and again. There are always a couple of vegan options on the menu, as well as soya milk for teas and coffees."
"Address: Victors, RU5, Westgate Shopping Centre 307 The Westgate, Queen St, Oxford OX1 1PG. Thirdly, we have Victors!. This restaurant-bar is a lovely place to unwind for a few hours for either a coffee, lunch, cocktails, dinner or a weekend brunch."
"Victors Oxford is a Hamptons-inspired restaurant & bar offering a menu of modern American small plates. The menu is designed to share. Dishes are served to the centre of the table, creating a social and relaxed environment."
"Area: In the Westgate shopping centre, with stunning views of the historic city. Now, a shopping centre isn’t the first place you would think of when choosing places to eat in Oxford, but Westgate shopping centre is home to a gem. Sticks n sushi is a Japandi restaurant, blending classic Japanese cuisine with modern interior."
"For frozen refreshment with an oriental twist, check out the selection on offer at Sticks’n’Sushi. The perfect way to round off your meal, choose from yuzu sorbet with Japanese citrus, vanilla ice cream with Tongan vanilla bean or caramel ice cream with dark miso."
