The Punter Oxford

This is a very popular vegan and vegetarian restaurant and I would advise booking if you want to eat at a particular time. It is extremely handy for people arriving by boat. We had moored up just opposite and went in at 6pm to enquire about availability and were told either "now or 8.30" as all the tables were booked. The food we ate was excellent and the service attentive. 12.5% is added as a service charge to the bill but it's all shared with the staff, which is good. Food prices seemed a little high, but that's probably the Oxford effect.

Came here for dinner and it was absolutely great. It had a lovely "old pub" atmosphere and the location is great being just by the river. The staff were all very friendly and service was brilliant. The food was absolutely excellent! The menu has a great selection and I really would love to come back to try the other dishes! Even the non-veggie was waxing lyrical about how good the scotch egg was. I think he could have taken a doggy bag home with about 5 more in!

Delightful pub with the kind of inventive cooking I wish existed before I moved away from Oxford 10 years ago. Outdoor space is also great to have these days, staff are attentive as well! Only a short walk from the train station, it backs into a very pleasant river walk you can take afterwards. Will hopefully return on future visits.

Had heard great things from family and it didn't dissapoint. Lovely staff, great wall art, in a beautiful part of Oxford by the river, centrally located near town and station. All veggie menu with lots of vegan options and no meat in sight. But would reccomend trying even if you're normally a carnivore. A pub with great drink options but in the same league as a restaurant for food. Menu inventive and well executed.
