Felt like maybe not enough people in the kitchen the evening we went. Fries were not hot and were soggy, just mildly warm but the waitresses were busy. We wanted to order more food but didn't get the opportunity. The poor girls just seemed so busyWe would go backFood & drinks: Think more kitchen staff needed , unless someone called in sick.

Would have been a five star as the food was tasty but there was not enough food. Spent £55 on a takeaway and felt hungry after. The mixed grill is definitely only for one person. Also chips In a sealed plastic Tupperware box is a stupid idea. Soggy

Had a lovely evening, the meze menu very tasty, mains were a little average, I had one of my favourite puddings baklava and sadly that was bland compared to what I've had before. I will still go back and next time I will order a variety of meze options

Deliciously different food of great quality with friendly service - very fortunate to have such a place quite local to us. Highly recommended.

This was our first visit to The Cinnamon Stick following good reports from friends. My wife and I wanted a light lunch and went with the owner's recommendation of Chef's Mixed Mezze which was an enjoyable selection from the main menu; this was followed by cinnamon flavoured ice cream. I also had a lebanese beer and glass of red wine, both very drinkable. The restaurant interior is pleasant and comfortable. The owner, Khalid, was extremely pleasant and helpful; he was very friendly and easy to chat with. The price was about average for this area and the times we live in. We will definitely return and have a more substantial meal.

A pub with a focus on Lebanese food that as far as I can see is 'in the sticks'. But Oxon gets very rural when out of the major conurbations. Visited on recommendation and served a very nice IPA. in hindsight a selection of small dishes for lunch would have been the best call. Set menu (Christmas) was absolutely fine, but very filling. Worth going again for sure ?

A wonderful find for a pre Christmas family meet up. Something a bit different - Lebanese meze (what's not to like) 3 veggies in party of 8 well catered for and atmosphere and owner excellent. Will definitely be back.Noteworthy details: Cosy unusual type of restaurant

Have had the pleasure of dining here many times the past few years. It?s a favourite of my family?s. While we live about 20 minutes away, we are happy to drive here frequently for their mouth-watering dishes.My son?s favourite is the lamb (seasoned to perfection), and my daughter?s is a mix of the mezze. I highly recommend the zahra maklia, the moutabel, fattoush, and the halloumi grilled with mint on the Lebanese bread, as well as the little sausages and the chicken schwarma?but you won?t find anything bad on the menu. There is also a very refreshing creamy dessert topped with pistachios that was new for me and delicious.The owner, Khalid, is an absolute delight of a person. The owner and staff clearly take a lot of pride in the restaurant, and the decor is very fitting for the restaurant and welcoming.There is an outdoor area that is perfect for families with younger children who might need an area to play, including a table tennis area.I have brought many people to the restaurant, and they consistently ask to return when they visit the area again. The food is absolutely wonderful, and be prepared to like it enough to want to return often. I find it to be a good value for the cost, and well worth any wait if they are busy. Thank you, Khalid and Team, for many a delightful meal!

Had a weekend stay in Middle Barton with six friends. The seven of us booked dinner there on a Saturday night. Nice pub, great food and very good service. Overall a great evening and when all said and done we will definitely come back and would highly recommend.

Food was good if not a bit pricey. The night we went, they seemed short staffed and service was polite and apologetic but slow. For the money, they should do a lot more to make it look like a Lebanese restaurant and less like the pub it obviously was: some background music, cushions, tapestries etc. They also need some of the fabulous Lebanese & Persian non alcoholic drinks like mint lemonade rather than just UK branded stuff. Lots of potential but could do better.
