Lunch stop at Huffkins in John Lewis, Oxford Street, London, on 28/01/20.
Sampled the mushroom soup, chicken sandwiches along with the vegetarian Coronation chickpea in granary bread.
Excellent presentation and tasted lovely.
Very pleasant waiting staff, being attentive, polite and courteous.
London prices of course but nice surroundings and window seat which was a bonus.

I am sorry to post this, but my recent experience was unacceptable.

I booked a sit down afternoon tea at Huffkins in Burford a month ago for Sunday 5th July. I received an email confirmation when booked and even the day before to confirm my booking.
This was planned so that we could enjoy my wife s birthday once lockdown restrictions had been lifted.

We arrived on the day only to be told that it was takeaway only (fair enough) and that all bookings had been cancelled - except clearly not ours.

We live in West London and drove 1.5 hours to Burford for our booking on 5th July 2020 at 3.45pm. Apparently there are no bookings until end of August despite everything else in Burford being open.

Being closed is not the issue - but not contacting us to let us know is unacceptable. To then send us an email a day later to ask about our experience is a joke really.



We like to come to the Cotswolds for a treat every now and then and often include a trip to Huffkins. But this has definitely left a bad taste.

Afternoon tea here was a delight. Friendly efficient service. Great range of lunches, cakes and drinks. Nice atmosphere. We went on a very hot Tuesday afternoon and can imagine it gets very busy at the weekend.

Located on the Main Street in the picturesque village of Burford. Kind of a traditional tea room, we had the afternoon tea which was scones, jam and cream with s big pot of tea. Generous portion and waitress brought our more cream. Nice afternoon tea, and other people s lunches looked nice. Reasonable price for what we had

We'll happily drive from Stony Stratford to have breakfast or lunch here. First class food and regardless of how busy it gets, service is always spot on. Fantastic range of food on offer all having a very home cooked feel to it....that's a good thing, obviously if no-one in your house can cook you'll need to ignore that last comment. Definitely worth a visit and the surrounding area too if you have time on your hands.

Beautiful tea room with wide selection of sweets and savouries! Came here for lunch, which was quite busy, but service was quick and friendly. Scones were soft and fluffy, best enjoyed warm. We tried the ham & mushroom pie, and pork burger, which were both delicious and huge in portion - would recommend sharing between two if you re getting tempting pastries along side! :)

We have a shih Tzu dog so we can only eat in the courtyard next door which does takeaway. The service was great. The food was fine but menu is very limited. After all this time the restaurant should be sharing and have access to the courtyard for owners of dogs.

Just OK. Experience is of take away/bakery. Dog tolerated to rear in Medieval Garden . Ordering was difficult but we thought we had got there in the end, order came wrong, when it did come the white bread had Mildew / Mould on it. Milkshake was off but by that point we d gone past tolerance and left. Didn t risk using the loo or attempting to order cake .

Got seated straightaway for brunch on a Saturday. Served quickly and staff were friendly and attentive.
Food is of good quality, had a nice full English! Stairs to the toilet could be be a little tricky for those less able.
Would definitely recommend and return.

Only three stars today! Always use Huffkins when there is one, but had the fish and chips today and although the fish was very good the meal was served on cold plates and the peas were cold by the time they arrived at table. Disappointing cool meal. Not the standard I expect from Huffkins!!!
