we were looking forward to our dinner at this pub as it has had good reviews. The cooking was ok, nothing special, which you would expect from a chain. Having got home I woke up in the middle of the night with stomach pains and diarrhoea which stayed with me for most of the following day, I when and see... More

We went for lunch last Saturday. We were quite early around 12 midday but they seemed to be in complete disarray. The tables were not laid up for lunch and there were about a quarter of the tables occupied. We stood in the door way for quite a while being ignored even though there was a waitress standing there organising... More

Had a short break near Wallingford and used The Old Post Office twice. Once just for coffee and once for a light lunch. Found both visits very agreeable. Coffee, food and service was all very good at reasonable prices. When we go back to Wallingford, we would use again without hesitation. More

Food is excellent and has an Italian / Sardinian flair. Service is friendly and prompt. Good wines at reasonable prices. A haven for young professionals and the bar fills up quickly. Good atmosphere. More

This was the fourth time in as many months that I had visited but this visit was the first evening visit. I went with a group of friends and we were sat on a good size table where we could chat without having to shout too much. After looking at the specials most of our group had ordered fish. Our...

I have enjoyed having several weekend brunches at The Old Post Office, all of which have been excellent. On another somewhat belated note every New Year's Eve we hum & ha for something to do, and with some trepidation having been dissapointed at several other local venue's previously, this year we booked a 'fully organised' evening at The Old Post...
