Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Nuneham Courtenay

Very good place, amazing food and service, everyone should visit Kibou!!!

As usual, the 7 stars provided us with lovely food, good beer and a great ambiance in their sunny garden. We live nearby and it is one of our preferred Sunday lunch places.

Great evening, with great food and great food! The Hot Honey Chicken was delicious!

Always an excellent meal had. Great atmosphere and staff are very friendly.

Broadly I found the food I sampled - two courses (fish starter and meat main) - to be in alignment with the thrust of previous reviews, and to be in very good order. Portions were generous, including the bread given as an adjunct to one's core order. The chosen accompanying wines also went down very well, from a decent list (they only had 1 dessert offering but this was at least a moreish Monbazillac, which subbed for a real dessert pretty well). The service was superb, although perhaps I should qualify this with an expectation that it really should've been, given my visit was on a Monday evening in late February and for a good 3/4 of my time in the restaurant, there were literally no other customers besides me! I do hope this reflected the time of year etc more than the perceived or experienced qualities of the establishment. As far as I could tell, I am confident that was likely the case. Once a few additional punters did arrive - quite late on, possibly post-University commitments in most cases - the atmosphere livened up and it felt a little less isolated! I felt some were likely regulars with their own tables. The ambience as directed by the design and decor though was excellent even when I was alone in the place - I even sent a pic of it to a friend with the caption "this is how I'd like my front room done"! It is very trad, classic, in keeping with the delightful building, with no unpleasant minimalism or stark modern intrusions - that is how I like things anyway - and felt very comfortable.
