We visited The Oxford for lunch and tried the prawn pasta and crumbed sole fillets from the lunch menu.nnThe prawn pasta was quite average – we expected the prawns to be the highlight, but they tasted like frozen prawns, and the sauce lacked a noticeable tomato flavour. However, the ham in the pasta was quite tasty.nnThe crumbed sole fillets were definitely the highlight. The fish was fresh and tender, pairing well with the tangy tartar sauce. The sides had bits of bacon and corn, which were nice, though the broccoli was a bit undercooked. Overall, apart from the fish, the dishes were fairly standard, but we enjoyed the meal.nnWhat made our visit extra pleasant was the service – the staff were all smiling and welcoming, which made us feel warm and comfortable.
Fabulous place with fantastic food ! The wild venison is a banger because the chef serves it with blue cheese ! The association of flavors is unique. A MUST DO when you stop in Timaru !
Popped in for lunch with the folks and had a lovely time. The two ladies out the front were dynamite, efficient and friendly. The food was excellent, great job chefs! You HAVE to try the Korean Chicken Bowl, it's absolutely delicious and will warm the cockles of your heart. The rooms have a cool, nicely renovated, but still yester-year charm. Highly recommend The Oxford in Timaru.
I had a great experience at this restaurant the other day.nThe interior is both elegant and inviting, creating a sophisticated ambiance. We visited for lunch as a group of 8 including locals who are regulars here.nMany of us opted for the highly recommended their “Chefs pie”: Beef & Ale Pie, a generous portion of flaky pastry filled with savory beef,buttery cabbage, creamy mashed potatoes, and rich gravy. It was a delicious and satisfying choice.nThe other dishes ordered by our group were equally well-received. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. We'll definitely be returning to this wonderful restaurant.
A must if you're in Timaru. Beautiful, delicious food. Staff friendly, professional, and attentive. We ordered Eggs Benedict, French toast and the chefs pie. Yum to all of it. Coffee was good and the juices fresh and cold. Would highly recommend.
