Feathers Restaurant in West Oxfordshire

Great food in lovely surroundings. Would recommend.

Dined at The Nest last night and had a truly wonderful experience. Very professional staff and the food was really lovely. The space is intimate and very luxe. A Beautiful addition to Woodstock!

Perfect meal in the sweetest location. We have been dining here for years and this was the best yet.

Excellent food and very good, friendly service. Will certainly return

A great evening at this lovely restaurant. The food was excellent and inventive. The service was exceptional. The waitress (Avanya) was attentive and knowledgable. A thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Both me and my husband chose the duck for our main and it was absolutely faultless. All three courses were cooked to perfection and we will definitely recommend to everyone we know! Fantastic, friendly service and a lovely cosy atmosphere.

Food was particularly good quality, the duck for main was a knock out!

Superb in every respect.Exactly how a dog Ning experience should be

A warm welcome as always, we were looked after, very well, by Avina and enjoyed an excellent lunch.

Truly outstanding food and attentive but not intrusive service! A faultless dinner - fabulous venison, the aged Gruyère burger was historic (one of the best burgers I have ever had) and the toffee apple tarte tartin was superb. Service outstanding- all the staff were friendly and a credit to the establishment- and a nightcap Negroni in the stylish bar - this is clearly the best hotel and best restaurant in Woodstock - it leaves the competition in its wake!

Really lovely meal, the staff were very welcoming. The food was delicious.

Warm and friendly service from a professional team. Tasty and beautifully presented food, a much needed addition to Woodstock.

Great food, good flavours inventive and precision cooking.

Well done The Nest on a fabulous dining experience. The food taste and presentation was outstanding. This is definitely going on our top table of eating out.

Fantastic service , food and drink. A must visit if you’re in Oxfordshire

Stand-out amazing food. What a great addition to the Woodstock restaurant scene - pitched at just the right level and filling a gap in the market. Thanks for a great lunch.

The hotel was recently refurbished to a very high standard. We had a pre lunch drink in the bar/lounge where the staff were very attentive and friendly. Although it was the Sunday lunch menu, we opted for crab risotto and halibut mains. The only downside, due to the soft opening, was a lack of atmosphere but the food was excellent and we were looked after by Sophia. Fully recommend and we will be back.

A quiet and pleasant ambience for a reunion with an old friend. The service was first class. We had the trout salad and a cheese burger. The salad was fresh and ample, the trout was in short supply; the burger standard. We followed with ice cream - a well-presented but small helping. My glass of Italian wine was poor and following cappuccino lukewarm. We enjoyed the ambience for our reunion, but the food was expensive and unremarkable.

The Nest at The Feathers is a pleasant dining experience with great service; we enjoyed our dinner and will visit again when next in Woodstock.

Absolutely love this place! The courtyard garden is lovely and the wine menu is extensive. The food is delicious and the staff are faultless. I would thoroughly recommend it. A fabulous addition to the restaurants in Woodstock.

The food was delicious and well presented; the service was fantastic; and the decor and ambience were perfect. Great wine list too! We really enjoyed our visit, and will definitely be returning.

Loved the new look for the restaurant at The Feathers. Lively ambiance, service first class. The complimentary glass of Champagne for my birthday was a lovely touch. Food superb, would not hesitate to go back next time we're in The Cotswolds x

Beautiful food, beautiful presentation, beautiful service. Just beautiful!

We had dinner with my cousins’s birthday from Italy. They made us feel very, very welcome and the food was outstanding. Great great service highly recommended.

Superb new restaurant.Imaginative and sophisticated menu. Good wine list. Attentive and knowledgeable staff. This place will go far if it maintains this standard.

After a complete refurbishment, this restaurant exceptionally good food and service. Highly recommended!

Everything from the food, service, ambience and new decor made for a delightful lunch. The staff were very friendly and welcoming whilst also attentive but not intrusive. The Food and Beverage Manager, Andy, was great. The food was simply delicious. The decor has changed dramatically. No more ‘70s carpet with bold swirls. The new colours are calming hues of browns and creams. Gone are the white table clothes and tower of tea cups that adorned the front window for so long. The outside spaces, front and back,have also had a huge facelift. The Robert Welch cutlery and individually picked plates and bowls set off the food beautifully. The extensive wine list also complimented the menu and was reasonably priced to be fair, with a selection of wines by the glass should you not want a full bottle. There was nothing not to like. Treat yourself and go and pay the Feathers a visit. The restaurant will now be known as The Nest, I believe.

Nice location and proper china/rose/fabric napkins, but let down by performance: asked us if special event (yes, birthday), and were given full menu when really we had booked us in for cream teas, giving us the impression we could choose freely from wider afternoon tea options - embarrassing, as we were a little more peckish than expected. Place was quiet, so we're a little underwhelmed. No mention of special occasion, so not sure of the effectiveness of the marketing team.

We decided to go to the feathers at last minute and although we turned up at 2.05 we were made very welcome. The tables were nicely laid with white clothes and a lovely yellow rose. The service was excellent and the food was also very good. Thank you very much to all.

We had an excellent dinner in the Churchill room with locally sourced food innovatively presented and with pleasant service. Especially noteworthy were the varied amuse bouche, the hare starter and the asparagus with coddled duck egg. The mains of lamb and duck and the desserts were equally good and, while the portion sizes were not large, they were very well balanced and satisfying. An excellent, if a tad expensive, Godello wine and a couple of glasses of a good rioja completed an excellent evening in pleasant surroundings. Very good value on the D, B & B break.

It was recommended by the manager at The Marlborough Hotel. It really made our evening as it was first class both food, drink & service.

Stopped by for drinks and an impromptu light dinner; we ate in the courtyard at the back. Service was excellent: staff were friendly, well informed and helpful. The food was very tasty, offering a good choice of both dishes and portion size. Limited number of tap beers but overall a good selection with bottled and nice wines. Very nice evening out.

We were delighted with the meal and service over dinner at the restaurant. A husband and wife team provide an unexpectedly high quality of taste and presentation with added amouse bouche and pre dessert surprises. Definitely recommend . Very good value for money. Would go again.

We had a 3 course meal and the food was presented well and tasty. The service was a bit slow but they had a problem in the kitchen. We didn't mind the wait and were given a free drink as compensation so had no complaints.

We were treated to a cream tea with a gin and tonic followed by a selection of sandwiches, scones and clotted cream with homemade strawberry jam as well as beautifully made pastries. All of it hand made on the premises. Without doubt the finest value in Oxfordshire. Strongly recommended by my wife and I, who were treated by our eldest daughter, as it is our 43rd wedding anniversary tomorrow! 👍

We booked here on a Sunday evening -- Mother's day. Every place in town was full earlier in the day, and we were happy to find an evening booking. The place was empty when we arrived. The waiters were very nice, but ages of time would pass without us seeing them. We wouldn't see anyone at all, so couldn't even flag someone down. The child's menu listed a cheeseburger and fries. She got a burger with no cheese or anything but a meat patty and we had to wait another 10 minutes or so for her fries. This was after waiting quite a while for the adult meals as well. The canapes and bread were very good, but the egg in the cheddar custard was very under done. The sirloin was in four slices, one of which was entirely gristle. Took ages to get the bill when we finally decided to leave. Strangest of all was that there were only three tables in the restaurant that we could see, so we couldn't figure out why no one was ever around.

We stayed using the Travelzoo deal and I’ve rated 5 stars for excellent value for money. All the hotel and restaurant staff are extremely friendly and professional. We had a large, very clean room with a really comfortable bed. Both meals were most enjoyable and we left totally satisfied. It’s a hotel without unnecessary pretentions where everyone worked hard to make our brief stay - thanks!

Chose The Feathers for lunch as it looked very inviting through the window when walking past. Not a huge menu but food was excellent. Highly recommended the chocolate tart for dessert. Staff were very attentive and efficient. Will definitely return

If you are in Woodstock do not miss this restaurant. Our party of four enjoyed every morsel. We cannot wait to go back and will go out of our way to dine here if we are in the Cotswold's or Oxfordshire. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Do not miss the desserts.

We loved our short break here, a warm and informative welcome, a lovely room with everything we needed and an excellent dinner. The steak was perfectly cooked and well presented. The hotel itself has a really interesting history and lots of original features still visible. The food is wonderful and the service is excellent. A very good value for money short break.

We were looking to find a good value hotel on the edge of the Cotswolds. Woodstock is ideal for visiting Blenheim Palace and Oxford in close to all other Citswolds highlights. The Feathers is brilliantly situated in the Centre of Woostock and excellent for both. You can walk to the Palace. As for the hotel itself. All members of staff were extremely friendly and helpful and always on hand to assist with any requirement we had. Always with with a smile and enthusiasm. The food on offer was excellent and the bar full (especially if you have a penchant for Gin). Could not fault the Feathers and look forward to returning very soon. 10 out of 10

Booked really late but Mandy managed to get us in . Flavio looked after us even though we messed after misunderstanding the menu option , will be back soon!

We love The Feathers! Unfortunately on this visit we could only manage a cheeky g&t, but it was fabulous. The lovely barman was very friendly and knowledgeable- I have to admit the gin list did slightly terrify me with its length! We will be back!

A dinner for four on a Saturday evening. Started with a couple of the quick bites and a couple of starters between the four of us. All were well presented and the mackerel and calamari especially were perfectly cooked and were flavoursome. For the mains...

Great experience, special meal for grandson's 21st,They looked after us very well. Interesting menu with recognisable ingredients, not too 'way out'.

Top short stay at the Feathers. Even though we arrived four hours before check in, we received a warm welcome at reception and they moved us straight into a room (suite) that was already available. A lovely afternoon drink sat outside the gin bar, followed...

Brilliant !!! I had been trying to book a break for a couple of weeks—— and failed — as we wanted a weekend and everywhere was either full or charging 50% more than pre COVID. My wife said she would sort it !!!!! And she...

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch here. Booking was simple, with excellent customer service and help. Quiet, pleasant dining room, comfortable chairs (really important), and a delicious and very plentiful meal. Bathrooms well stocked and scrupulously clean. Lovely friendly staff. Strongly recommend

After eating and drinking here on numerous occasions my mum, sister and I decided to come for a long overdue, post lockdown weekend away to one of our favorite places in The Feathers Hotel. We drove down from the midlands and about five minutes before...

We had a lovely meal at The Feathers. The service was excellent - very jolly staff. I can thoroughly recommend the pea risotto. My husband loved the cod fillets. We ate outside in a very attractive courtyard.

This was my first break with my partner, and it was perfect! The hotel was amazing, gorgeous decor, amazing staff, friendly and welcoming and the dogs were like the guests of honour! We were looked after in every aspect. The gin bar was delicious and...

Stayed once and enjoyed it - helpful fireplaces, period features (some steep stairs), quirky art on the walls, service as good as you'd want, a good night's sleep, and now confidently covid-secure. We returned recently for a coffee out of the wind and were delighted...

Really impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff we encountered, from Front Of House, the waiting staff and even the maintenance man who was painting the hallway. Our table waitress said it was her first day working at The Feathers but you...

Had a really pleasant lunch here with family - food was excellent and gluten free options great ( inc GF fish and chips!) Lovely spot and service.

Lovely staff and service, cannot fault this hotel for effort. Dominic popping outside to show me where to park, then Standing in the empty space with me, stopping it get pinched whilst me hubby drove around was a lovely personal start to the stay. The food was lovely and breakfast just as tasty. Lots of consideration given to COVID restrictions too. The rooms are looking a little tired and dated but were comfy and clean so cannot complain. We did the beautiful Blenheim package and it is great value. Strongly recommend it.

Had a really lovely stay here. Due to COVID everything was being cleaned and government guidelines adhered no issues at all.Staff polite and helpful especially the 2 guys in the bar (sorry didn’t get names) and also Ellie. Gin was amazing. Will definitely come again.

Lovely hotel, fantastic friendly staff who were extremely helpful. Bed was sooo comfortable but it is time the furniture was updated.

What a lovely place. Very friendly welcoming. We had a drink first outside. Massive gin selection for the gin lovers. After the drink we were given the choice to stay out or go in to have our food. We went inside. Service was the best and time in between courses was great. We had a starter, main and desert. I had two gin tonics, the lady had two glasses of wine and we had a bottle of sparkling water. We paid £100 for all of this. Value for money according to me. Staff was the friendliest and all wearing mouthmasks. Covid safety measures were great. Can highly recommend this place.

The feathers is a great hotel and restaurant. We had the dinner bed and breakfast deal. The room was great, the dinner was superb and the breakfast was very good too.The dinner was a mixture of nibbles, starters, mains and pudding. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options with fantastic knowledge of the dishes available.The food was well presented and the atmosphere was great.We had a great stay

We came here on my partner’s special birthday as we were in Woodstock for a long weekend, and we had a good meal here many years ago so were looking forward to the evening.I had pre-booked a table for 2 at 7.30 but when I arrived on time was told I had booked for 8 and would I like to wait with a drink, but as we had just had a pre-meal drink in the pub next door I firmly declined and was grudgingly found an empty table.For a starter off the nibbles section we ordered olives and crispy pork, but were presented with the olives and a plate of crisps! When the pork did finally arrive it was very tasty.When we ordered main courses (I had blade of beef and my partner halibut) we were told there were no side vegetables served with main courses, so we ordered extra greens and some chips. When the blade of beef arrived it was served with mash potato so the chips were not needed and largely wasted.A very young bottle of Rioja at £26 was overpriced, and we felt a 10% service charge was adding insult to injury as the service was generally pretty poor.All in all this was not a good experience, and we felt they are living off a past reputation so hope ours was not a common experience.

We booked this through Groupon and weren’t able to find dates that we could do on the site, so called them directly. The reception staff were really helpful and got us booked in for a different date. The afternoon tea was fabulous, very generous amounts of everything, beautiful presented and we were given a lovely table by the window with a nice view of Woodstock. Would highly recommend.

Well cooked, well presented and well served. We overheard that the head chef was on his day off so were slightly concerned! If this is what it is like when he is away, then I'd love to try it when he is back. Happy to recommend.

Friendly and professional staff, nothing was too much trouble. We stayed 2 nights which included dinner on the first night and breakfast each morning. The food was excellent every time absolutely no complaints. The hotel deco is delightful and you have a real sense of relaxation around you. If you like Gin, there is an amazing Choice on offer to kick start your evening! Would highly recommend this independent hotel.

Enjoyed breakfast and dinner during a two night stay at The Feathers. All food was freshly prepared and served by Staff who were all efficient yet friendly.

Friendly staff, nice room and a very large comfortable bed. Breakfast was very good with a large choice. Evening meal for us was a bit mixed with my meal having to be sent back owing to the fact the cod I ordered turned out to be the tail end that you probably would have given to your cat. That said the second serving resulted in three pieces of fish each twice the size of the original tail end, and superbly cooked. Just a shame that my wife had to eat her meal alone, and then I had to do the same.

We (party of 5) arrived in Woodstock on Boxing Day, at an awkward time, with a few hours to kill before our booked timeslot for Blenheim's Light Trail. Most other places were either closed, or full-up with waiting lists. We wandered into the Feathers and explained that we just wanted a cup of tea. They happily seated us in a quiet lounge, brought tea and biscuits, and didn't hurry us out. The tea was very reasonably priced.Their hospitality was outstanding. We would certainly return sometime for a meal.

If you want a lift to upper floors and air conditioning this hotel is not for you. However if you want character this will fulfil the brief. Spent one night here having spent the day at Blenheim Palace. It took less than 10 minutes to get there from Blenheim. There is free parking on the street which is useful as they don’t have a dedicated car park. We had a free gin and tonic and two course meal included in our package. The choice of gin could have caused a meltdown as there were well over 100 to choose from however we only qualified for Cotswold Gin which was alright. You could always go through their stock at your own cost! The beer battered fish and chips and braised beef that we choose for our main course was very good and the apple and pear trifle with cinnamon custard was beautiful. The only down side was our bedroom and more especially the bed which we found really uncomfortable - there seemed to be a dip in the middle and the mattress was definitely lumpy. We also found it quite dark - there were two (possibly three) downlights with two bedside lamps and a lamp on the desk - none of which illuminated the room very much. That was the only drawback - the staff were friendly and the food was lovely. Afterthought - they need to change the music playing during the evening meal - it was still Christmas songs!

Used to be our courting place to eat back in the early 90s, We moved away for a few years, returned and called in on the off chance for Lunch (Sunday). Food and staff perfect place had not changed much, however now that we are back, it will be our courting place again. Thank you to all the staff, very, very good.

Dinner as part of the package, the meal was amazing, staff were really nice and friendlyHowever when the bill came it included dinner, we said it was part of the package, it was speedily ammended and left just one drink to pay, which my spouse paid and left a tipNext morning, this had not been taken off, we said we had paidNot very goodI only left average because of the bill mix up

The Feathers is a hotel, too. We spent three nights here in room 32, December 3rd - 5th 2019 and could hardly be happier. Our room was comfortable, warm and characterful. The food was excellent and the staff wonderfully helpful, friendly and efficient. We breakfasted three times (full English, then smoked haddock and poached egg, finishing our stay with the smoked salmon version of eggs Benedict. I wish I could start every day the Feathers way. We ate our evening meal here twice and between us and our friends, sampled pie of the day, fish and chips, slow-cooked belly pork .. beautifully cooked and presented, with trifle, sticky toffee pudding to follow. Excellent wines and great service.

9 of us went last night for our Society Christmas Meal and what a great meal it was. The food was absolutely delicious and the service impeccable. The table was decorated beautifully for Christmas and we were put in what felt like a private area at the end of the restaurant. The whole experience was fabulous and if I have a better meal this Christmas I will be surprised.

We had a fabulous evening meal here. Braised blade of beef recommended along with mash and seasonal greens Not too pricey Excellent service

I was recently invited to a business lunch at The Feathers, a restaurant I'd previously never been to. Upon announcing our arrival, we were met at reception by the Head Chef. He welcomed us and suggested we sit by the bar. The fire had just been lit which proved to be a warm welcome and contrasted the chilly day outside. We both chose the Crispy Windsor Pork Belly, which was a perfect choice! When the food arrived, the presentation was second to none. The pork fell apart on the fork, the crackling was exactly the right blend of size, depth and crunch, the black pudding sausage roll was perfect and the accompanying jus brought the whole meal to life. My compliments to the Head Chef and his team, and I will be back to The Feathers very soon!

Had a fantastic night wish it had been longer great suite !! Fantastic ambience food drinks staff 5star.

Warm welcome, good atmosphere, we ate in the more casual bar area. Interesting menu from which we chose a delicious pork belly, and a beef & venison pie topped with silky smooth mashed potato accompanied by tender, perfectly cooked vegetables.

What a delight! From the welcome as we walked in the door, the cosy setting and the attentiveness of the waiters, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Not to mention the tea itself, which was delicious. We used a Groupon voucher but even without this, it would've been a reasonable price. I am coeliac,my husband isn't but we both decided on gluten free so that we could share everything. We weren't disappointed. Both agreed it was a lovely selection (so often not the case with gluten free). We had 2 pots of tea and couldn't eat everything so our waiter packed us a bag to take away. Lovely experience. One we look forward to repeating. Thankyou and well done.

We have not stayed the night here but me and my wife have had the fish n chips for lunch a few times and it is very nice indeed. £10 for fish n chips and a drink! very good value for money and very good quality too.

Amazing staff, the two Italian chaps serving the food and drinks were super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. With the most varied gin bar in the whole of the UK .. what can go wrong ? ; )

We were staying at the hotel for one night ( separate review and not so good) and we booked a table for two for dinner. We both felt that it was an excellent meal. A varied menu and friendly waiters. We began our meal with baked cheese with delicious chunky bread, then what is probably the most delicious cauliflower soup we had ever tasted. We both had the plaice and dill potato which was exquisite. With wine the meal came to £122. Worth every penny as it was superb. Many thanks for an really enjoyable evening and delicious meal.

I dined here for three nights running, as I was staying in the Hotel. The Restaurant occupies a long room extending along the front of the building towards the street. The tables are well spaced out, and the original form of the building as separate cottages could be traced in the slight separation between the spaces.

I booked the Afternoon Tea with Gin & Tonic though the Groupon offer for my wife’s birthday. It was 30% cheaper than booking direct with the hotel. We went along and introduced ourselves to reception. The manager accompanied us through to our table and introduced us to the gentleman who would be serving us, he in turn showed us to our table. The ambiance was loverly and we were sat by the window to the rear garden, Everything was perfect, however I was surprised that the actual tea was fairly scant. We had three small finger sandwiches each, one smoked salmon, one egg and one ham. The scones were delicious although Fairly small, one plain and one fruit each. The pot of cream only just covered the needs and the jam was much larger. We had three small home made cakes each. The Gin and tonic was of high quality and exceptional. In all the experience was very good, however if I had paid full price then I would say it was expensive and not value. The normal cost would have been around £45 and I paid £30. It was a pleasant afternoon tea.

Excellent tea and the staff very attentive. We could not have had better service. A good selection of sandwiches and a variety of cakes plus some great scones.

We had a nice lunch here, food was good & a great selection of gin's. We will return in the near future.

Lovely afternoon tea yesterday. Sandwiches fresh and tasty. Delicious cakes . Staff welcoming and service quick. Very comfortable in small lounge looking onto pretty garden area . Will definitely go back.

The staff were very pleasant and knowledgeable of the menu , the service was good and almost no waiting time for service.

We were not staying here were in another hotel near by but as we had heard it had the best gin bar thought we would pop over for a pre dinner drink.

Very good glass of Prosecco,in the garden. Unfortunately the table needed a good clean, but the food arrived with cups and milk,but no tea so I had to ask for it.Otherwise the food was well presented and good standard.

We had Afternoon Tea at The Feathers yesterday. I had contacted them to say my Husband had just been diagnosed with Diabetes and would it be possible for him to have a bit of fruit instead of the cakes to which they said it would be fine and it certainly was ! We expected a few strawberries or something but he was given a plate of fruit which included strawberries, raspberries, melon, grapes and pineapple which was well presented. My Husband was extremely pleased with it and to top it all the afternoon tea was delicious and the staff were all lovely too.

We only stopped in to try their Guinness record breaking gin selection. They had the gin, but the staff didn't really have the knowledge. Our of the 400 there were only two Old Toms and not a single bottle of the recent world gin winner Dingle. And a woeful selection of tonics.

They make extremely good gin tonics here - you must give it a try. The garden terrace is delightful and we had a super time sitting outside until late into the evening. Friendly staff and extremely accommodating. Relaxed and comfortable.

We spent a night here with friends and were not disappointed. The hotel is dog friendly and the room we had was spacious so no tripping over the dog or his bed! It is very centrally placed for visiting Blenheim Palace and there are plenty of other pubs and eateries in walking distance. We had dinner in the restaurant and they cater for a gluten-free diet. Our only complaint was with the lack of green spaces in Woodstock to let the dog do what a dog needs to do!! Would certainly stay here again.

Asked for a gin menu to be advised that I would have to look online. While looking at selection of gins barman/manager said in curt tone “not behind the bar please”. There was then a misunderstanding when we thought the barman/manager offered us to pour our gin, when we realised our mistake and apologies he was rude and gave us lecture. Total lack of hospitality on his part and a disappointing start to our stay.

We went here for small wedding reception. The food was really very good. I would recommend the steak which was up there as one of the best I have ever had which is praise indeed. Puddings weren't bad either, Service was discreet,

A lovely town, but I am afraid that The Feathers is not the hotel that we remembered. A lack of attention to detail and the restaurant is just not up to muster. The front of house staff were excellent, but the corridors to the room were shabby and the hotel lacked a sense of leadership.

Good location, nice staff throughout however the room was dark with only a fire exit for light. No window in the bathroom. The room was very hot overnight, a noisy air conditioning unit was installed in the room. This wasn’t that efficient and didn’t help.

My wife and I had a sandwich in the bar last week. The service was very slow taking twenty minutes before the bar man took our order as he was running drinks into the restaurant all the time.we both ordered the steak sandwich costing 10 pounds each. When it arrived the steak in the sandwich was tasty but not much of it. When we paid we were very surprised to see that they changed a service charge of 10 percent. I did not notice it on the menu that they charged this. I my self would rather give my own tip when appropriate not be charged when the service wasn't that great.

Booked easily - Mandy really helpful. Well received and Flavio seated us and staff were attentive, great meal good roast beef, rare and tender and good wine. Great decor, good mood music and really comfortable ambience. Will go back.
