Had seafood platter for two, lovely meal in nice venue and ambience. Very friendly staff, highly recommend
Everything about this place is just great. From the bar staff to the waiting staff, everyone is friendly and welcoming. The food is INCREDIBLE, and perfect portions too. The atmosphere was buzzing but we were all still able to have a conversation, and the decor was beautiful. I would absolutely recommend No. 1 Ship Street, and will definitely be visiting again.
Delicious full meal. Aside from the nice starters to open with, my main stood out the most. The gnocchi was fluffy and light, paired with melt in your mouth aubergine and a tangy spicy tomato sauce. The other dishes were also perfectly flavored, despite being on the pricier side, the portion sizes really made up for it. Staff were lovely and very friendly to us, and tried to serve us as efficiently as possible even with the busy night. Highly recommended for those who want a fancier night out.
After 5 years living in Oxford, we finally tried no.1 Ship Street, we went for the set lunch menu on a weekday, and we had a great experience. The food was amazing, and tasty, and the service was great. Will definitely be coming here again.
Lovely restaurant! Great starters & mains, top choice the scallops. Unfortunately disappointed with the dessert - pretty standard
Aside from the best food they served, I also want to share that their Customer Service is the best among the restaurant in the area. The entire customer journey was very pleasant because they ensured the request from each of the us were fulfilled.

When ordering, the waiter was probably too stressed from the day and didn’t show much patience to us who want to understand more of the menu. Not friendly to tourist who don’t know much of the ingredients used in fine dining.
After we’ve ordered, the restaurant was too busy for its small number of servers. There was an extremely long lag between the starter and the main course, during which they didn’t provide us with more bread even after our request.
The men’s toilet was skinny and dingy.
The rabbit dish from the main was absolutely delicious and beautifully arranged. It’s a wheel of rabbit meat in the outer ring and a center circle of soft potato mixture. The exterior rabbit skin was crispy and delicious. The chard and mushroom perfectly cut the oiliness from the rabbit and the potatoes. Masterfully balanced.
The same can’t be said of the two- and three-course. The appetizers are brilliant but the main courses are a farse. Eating the pork snitzel is like chewing rubber and the pork was topped with a measly 5 green beans to cut the oiliness. The other main course is a salad with three nubs of mozzarella, little no substance for a tired and hungry traveler.
We went for a 3 course lunch menu: watercress soup, risotto and Eton mess. The soup was definitely the highlight of the afternoon with balanced favours. One thing to note is that all three meals were way too heavy to eat together. The portions were very generous and probably slightly too big for a 3 course menu. The service was super quick. Would still recommend!
Had a great night celebrating a birthday. Really busy, so book in advance, but the service was still superb.
We had such a lovely evening at No1 Ship Street. Food, atmosphere, staff, cocktails all wonderful. We had oysters to start followed by a Surf and Turf that was absolutely brilliant. Can’t wait to come back soon!
Exquisite food, atmosphere and service. The food can be pricey, so the lunchtime menu trims the costs down quite a bit. My only criticism would be that the lunchtime menu is small, but other than that everything else was brilliant.
Loved this place, nice menu, nice food all round. Was lucky to get in, it was ramo.
