Absolutely the best roast beef I’ve ever had! Incredibly tender and full of flavour. Apparently they slow roast it overnight and you could really taste the difference. One of our party had roast lamb and two had the beef. All of us really enjoyed it. Portions were all very generous. Staff were attentive and friendly. Great experience. Thank you!

Just lovely from beginning to end. We arrived a few minutes early and they were more than able to accommodate us. The new (to us) cocktail menu is fabulous: no excess sugar or spritz; just nice short classic cocktails made with the best ingredients. An amazing swordfish steak special was the star of the show not to mention an unexpectedly complex and flavoursome chestnut veloute. One real treat for dessert was *three* different vintage of Sauterne dessert wine available by the glass, including a 1983 vintage which absolutely wowed this diner with its depth and complexity. No. 1 Ship Street is the best restaurant in Oxford, by far.

Well done to Diago and to the full bar staff team. All excellent - The management team are first class... the kitchen and chefs - excellent. I'm not sure how this business runs so well, but it is an excellent, well-run operation, with excellent staff and excellent food. Another great meal - thank you, Andrew and Stephanie.

The Sunday roasts the 3 of us had were all delicious with generous portions, succulent meat and interesting vegetables. Very impressed.

    The location is fabulous... beautiful view even in the rain. The food & service was excellent! We'll definitely be back even though we travelled 1.5hours to get there. It's a destination eatery!
