Whistlers - West Oxfordshire

This has got to be, hands down, the greatest tasting food that doesn’t currently have a mitchalin star! The staff offered us bread and olives while we waited for our starters, this was warm freshly baked bread with a ball of balsamic butter, this kicked the meal off perfectly. Our Salmon, Pigion and Scalop starters were cooked to perfection with the greatest care for balance and textures that a chef could conduct. Our risotto had the grace of a couple of swans dancing! The cheese and truffle complimented each other so beautifully. The elegance of the whole meal was outstanding! We couldn’t be more happy that the food was Divine.

Delicious food! Had the trout starter, very light, fresh and perfectly seasoned. We both has the venison loved it! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Michelin level quality at pub level pretentiousness. The perfect place. Has live music, comedy, and overall great vibes. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

If I can, I would like to rate their food 6-star. Simply dishes like duck breast and cod fillet are excellent. A hidden gem restaurant in Chipping Norton! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

A fantastic experience. Wonderful food, atmosphere service. My partner I had the tasting menu at Whistlers as a treat to celebrate a special occasion and every course was excellent, the range of flavours complementing each other on every dish. Our particular favourites were the monkfish tail with celeriac mash and apple, and the fillet steak. One thing to note is that the tasting menu will change regularly depending on the availability of fresh ingredients this didn't bother us as we were open to trying new things but if you're keen to confirm what will be on the menu I'd recommend calling on the day. The service was equally great we were made to feel very welcome and all staff were friendly and talkative. This really is a hidden gem and somewhere we will be sure to return to. If you're staying in Chipping Norton then add this to your list, you won't be disappointed.
